St. John is worth FAR more than a day. It was FAR more to our liking than STT. It can be more expensive as there are only 3 hotels, (a nice Westin, a former Rock resort that is now run by rosewood (name escapes me right now), and one other.


If you want secluded Carribean at its best, St. John is for you, by a long shot. Don't just go for a day and only to Trunk Bay, which is lovely. Go for several days... it is one of the best places on earth. FAR, FAR, FAR less crowded and more civil than STT, which I found crowded, and frankly rather stressful. My advice is to get out of STT ASAP and head to St. John.
