The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos helps travelers from Port St. Joe, Florida plan a first trip to the Caribbean, from getting to St. John through the Westin St John Resort area to choosing a villa rental that suits your stay.
Port St. Joe sits on Florida's Gulf Coast in the Southeast, so many travelers from here already know warm water and sandy shorelines. A first Caribbean trip still asks a few new questions, such as how island travel differs from the familiar drive to the beach and what a villa stay feels like compared with a hotel room. This page is written for that first visit. You will find plain notes on the route most visitors take, a sense of how the seasons shape the islands, and a clear picture of how Villa Rentals work at the Westin St John Resort. Read it at your own pace, and feel free to ask the St John Condos team anything before you commit.

Your first Caribbean trip from Port St. Joe
- Reaching St. John. Most visitors from Florida fly into St. Thomas, which has the airport code STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there a passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay on St. John. Keep your documents handy for the crossing, and expect the island's roads to run on the left side, which feels unfamiliar at first.
- Choosing when to go. The islands stay warm through most of the year, which is a welcome change for anyone leaving a northern winter behind. Since you are coming from the Gulf Coast, you already understand summer heat and afternoon storms. Think about which weeks suit your schedule, and talk through the timing with the St John Condos team before you book.
- Planning your stay. Villas at the Westin St John Resort are rented by the week, which gives a first-time visitor room to settle in and explore. Consider how many people are traveling, what kind of view you want, and how much time you plan to spend on the beach versus on the trails. A clear plan made early makes the whole trip feel easier.
Frequently asked questions
Is a first Caribbean trip very different from a trip to the Florida coast?
In many ways it feels familiar, with warm sea, sand, and easygoing days. The main differences are the island setting, the ferry crossing to St. John, and driving on the left. Planning ahead for these small changes helps the trip feel relaxed from the first day.
How does booking a villa differ from booking a hotel room?
Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort are booked by the week, so you have a full home base with more space to spread out. Ask the St John Condos team about layouts and what each villa includes, so you can match the choice to your group before you book.
