The Westin St John Resort
St John Condos can help travelers from South Beach, Florida, plan a week of exploring the island, from the first flight out of Florida to the last walk along the shore. Their local team answers questions before you book.
South Beach is a city on the Florida coast, in the Southeast, where warm weather is part of everyday life. Many travelers from here are used to sunshine and salt air, so a Caribbean island can feel familiar in some ways and very different in others. A week on St. John gives you room to slow down, explore by car or on foot, and let the days take their own shape. Most visitors reach St. John by flying into St. Thomas, then taking a taxi to Red Hook and the passenger ferry across to Cruz Bay. Driving on the island is on the left, which takes a little getting used to. Renting a villa for the week through the Westin St John Resort gives you a home base with space to spread out, so you can plan each day around what you actually want to see.

Planning your week from South Beach
- Getting to St. John. Start by flying from your home airport to St. Thomas, which is the usual gateway to the island. From the airport, a taxi will take you to Red Hook, where you board the passenger ferry to Cruz Bay. Keep your luggage manageable, since you will be carrying it onto the boat and along the dock. Confirm your ferry plans before you leave so the last leg of the trip is simple.
- Choosing when to leave. Think about when you want to step off the plane and into island life. Traveling from Florida is a short hop by American standards, so you can make a decision based more on the season than on distance. Many people prefer to visit when the weather suits their plans and when the island feels calm enough to enjoy at a relaxed pace. Your St John Condos contact can talk through the timing with you.
- Planning the stay. A week gives you time to balance quiet mornings with a bit of exploring each day. Villa Rentals at the Westin St John Resort are booked by the week, which suits a longer trip well. Decide early whether you want a car, how many days you want for beaches and how many for resting. Leaving a few open days lets the island surprise you.
