St. John vacation rental FAQ
Where is the best place to stay on St. John?
Two-thirds national park and almost all villas: St. John has very few hotel rooms, so most people rent a house. Pick Cruz Bay to walk to the ferry and restaurants, the south-shore estates for a pool and a view a few minutes from town, or Coral Bay for the quiet side. Each area is described above with the official taxi fare to it.
Do I need a car on St. John?
Only if you stay outside Cruz Bay. Most villas are up steep roads and need a Jeep; Cruz Bay condos can do without one, using the safari taxis to the beaches.
