The Westin St. John - Bay Vista Villas

I have to disagree with the comments below about the Westin Resort Villas that are across the road and up the hill (the "hillside units") compared to the Bay Vista Villas. The "hillside units" are much older (built around 20 years ago or more) than the Bay Vista Villas that are almost new and are on the main Westin Resort site. Even though the hillside units have been renovated there are still issues with AC units and other things. Since the hillside units are remote and across the road it is quite a hike to get to the main resort with the pool, beach, and restaurants. If you get a hillside unit you really need to rent a car which is expensive on St John and recognize that going back and forth to the pool or beach will not be convenient. Also don't be fooled by Hillside units that are listed under "Bay Vista" Villas which they are not. Ask if they are actually Bay Vista Villas or not.

Check out Google maps of St John and zoom in to see the distance of these hillside units across the road from the main resort.

Westin St John is the premier destination in the Vistana (Westin/Sheraton) portfolio. St. John is a small island, and the Westin is the only top line hotel, so you always feel like an elite traveler. There are scores of places to swim and snorkel on the island, and it's been our experience to sometimes be the only people on one of the remote beaches. Rent a Jeep and enjoy the sunshine, serenity, and the many fine restaurants.
