St. John, nicknamed Love City, will surely make you fall in love with its gorgeous natural scenery. It’s the smallest of the US Virgin Islands (USVI) and famous for Virgin Islands National Park. The park features the picturesque Caneel Bay Beach and is home to wild iguanas and fascinating historical sites. Another must-visit is Trunk Bay with its underwater national park. The latter features the Trunk Bay Underwater Snorkel Trail. Maho Bay Beach also offers great snorkeling spots where you can encounter a variety of turtles.

1. The Westin St. John Resort Villas (from USD 529)
The breakfast was quick and tasty, but the lunch menu at Snorkels Bar & Grill was preferred over the dinner options. Limited dining choices due to Covid situation.
The 2-bedroom villa was comfortable and well-equipped, but the pricing for additional amenities like chairs and snorkel gear was considered expensive.
Stunning beachfront location with easy access to the pool, hot tub, and nearby attractions, but limited transportation options and a small beach area.
The villa had a private pool, well-maintained grounds, and complimentary kayaks for exploring Great Cruz Bay.
This is one of the top family resorts in St. John. It features air-conditioned rooms with a flat-screen TV for your entertainment. You will also find a work desk with a comfortable chair in your accommodation.

You will enjoy spending time at the freshwater pool, and there is a private beach access right in front where you can soak in the sunshine. The resort has a fitness center and a tennis court on the premises, so I’m sure active travelers will love this. There’s also a kids’ club for the little ones. Top it all off with a top-notch concierge service and you are assured of a great vacation experience.
