Hi All
Planning an
surprise anniversary trip in May. We get in on a Saturday and could stay on STT or STJ. Prefer STJ. We would get in around 4pm and leave on the morning ferry to Jost at 8:30am, so only a few hours

on STJ. Good news is we are back for two weeks in July
Where would you stay for the night???

If you choose St. John for your night, your options are somewhat limited because many places have a 3 night minimum. Places I've found that accept one night stays are Gallows Point, Westin and Coconut Coast studios. Smaller places will charge a "maid fee" for visits less than 3 nights, so be prepared.

We stayed one night at the St. John Inn before moving into a villa.
The rates are very reasonable and it includes continental breakfast.
They didn't have a minimum stay requirement in the off-season.

I would stay at the BW Emerald Beach, its right by the airport and you could grab some beach time and a drink to start your trip. We always come down a day early and stay here for 1 night when we bring the kids to break up the travel. Their restaurant also has a nice breakfast buffet to enjoy before leaving for Jost. Just an idea, I love St. John but I would rather relax then go through all that travel for 1 night and you could still take the ferry over to St. John if you get bored on Jost,it run Fri,Sat& Sun

We are staying one night on St. John after our sailing trip in May. The only place I have found that doesn't require a 3 night stay is the Westin. We booked a room but I am still looking for other options.

Call Lavender Hills. They usually have a few units open. I have seen people stay there one night. That time of year I think the rate is 195

One night? I'd stay at Crystal Palace or Olga's on St.Thomas.
