The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos rents villas at the Westin St John Resort for travelers from Skagway Municipality, AK, who are planning a first trip to the Caribbean. Our local team answers questions before you book.
Skagway Municipality sits in the far north of the country, where the land is shaped by mountains, water and long, cold winters. For many people here, the Caribbean is a place they have only seen in photographs. A first trip there asks for a different kind of planning, from the warmth of the water to the way days unfold on a small island. St. John is a quiet island in the US Virgin Islands, and it has a relaxed pace that suits travelers arriving from a distant northern home. Villa rentals at the Westin St John Resort give you room to settle in, cook a meal, and spend the morning however you like. Our team is glad to talk through what that rhythm will feel like before you commit to anything.

Your first Caribbean trip from Skagway Municipality
- Reaching the island. Most visitors fly into St. Thomas, airport code STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there, the passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay on St. John. It is a simple route, but it helps to plan your connections carefully, since you will be coming from far away. Our team can walk you through the general steps so nothing catches you off guard.
- Choosing when to go. Skagway Municipality has cold winters, so many travelers from the north look forward to the warm months on the islands as a welcome change. Think about what kind of weather you want, how much rain you are willing to accept, and whether you prefer a quieter season. The island is warm year round, so you can focus on the time that fits your schedule and your comfort.
- Planning your villa stay. Villa Rentals are booked by the week, which gives you space to slow down and enjoy the island rather than rushing from place to place. Plan a few simple things for your first days, like a rental car or a list of meals you want to try at home. Driving on St. John is on the left, so take a moment to get used to it before heading out.
Frequently asked questions
Is a first Caribbean trip very different from a trip to the lower forty-eight?
Yes, in a few ways. The islands are warm and humid, the pace is slower, and the transportation is different, since you will fly to St. Thomas and cross by ferry. Many travelers from northern places find the change refreshing once they settle into a villa for the week.
Do I need to know anything about driving on St. John before I arrive?
Driving on St. John is on the left, which may feel unfamiliar if you are used to driving at home. Take your time on the first day, go slowly, and ask our local team any questions about getting around before you book your villa.
Can I ask questions before I decide on Villa Rentals?
Of course. Ask St John Condos anything about Villa Rentals before you make a choice.
