Review: Coral Vista Villas, Westin St. John
We’ve been coming to the Coral Vista Villas at the Westin St. John for 10 wonderful years, and every visit reaffirms why we love it so much. While we can’t make it this year (congrats to our daughter!), we already miss everything about this place.
The villas are spacious and beautifully appointed. Our 2-bedroom villas offering nearly 960 sq. ft. (interior), with two full bathrooms, a master with a king Heavenly Bed, and double beds in the 2nd bedroom. Plus there’s a sofa bed in the living room, so there’s enough room for family & guests without feeling cramped.
Fully loaded kitchenettes: refrigerator, microwave, cooktop, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, tableware… everything you need to feel like you’re staying in a home-away from home. There is a full grocery store in walking distance.
Washer and dryer in-unit so you don’t need to pack too much, and clean towels/linens are always available.
Beautiful living areas with flat-panel TVs, sometimes Bose sound systems, furnished patios or balconies—perfect for enjoying ocean/bay views or relaxing evenings.
The resort is well cared for; décor is fresh, amenities are modern and clean. Being in Coral Vista, you’re close to everything yet still enjoy a sense of tranquility.
3. Amenities & Resort Perks
Beach access: soft white sand, beautiful water, views. You can stroll to the beach easily from the villas.
Great pools: there’s a lovely main pool, as well as semi-private pools for villa buildings, which is a nice touch if you want something a bit quieter.
Dining options on-site: restaurants and grills to suit casual or more refined tastes, plus a deli/gift shop for snacks or necessities.
Fitness center, tennis courts, spa services, shopping, water sports through the resort or nearby (snorkeling, kayaking, excursions) make it so you never need to leave unless you want to.
Excellent service: the resort shuttle is a big help (between villas, lobby, beach, pool etc.), housekeeping as needed, friendly staff, and good security. It all adds up.
4. Location & Variety
Coral Vista is ideally placed: close enough to the beach, the casual restaurants like Lemongrass, water-sport rentals, and also easy access to the main pool and other resort central features.
