VillAllure is located on the National Park Island of St. John, a short ferry ride from St. Thomas. The area is serviced by numerous airlines including US Air, American, Delta, and Continental to name a few. Many fights originating from the east coast are direct to St. Thomas arriving in approximiately 3 1/2 hrs. Other flights generally require one connection. Upon arrival in St. Thomas, a taxi ride to the downtown ferry dock takes approximately 10 minutes while the Red Hook ferry dock is approximiately a 45 minute ride. However, the ferry ride time to St. John from each location is equivilant to the cab ride to the alternative location. Also, the downtown ferry's latest afternoon departures are at 4pm and 5:30pm while the Red Hook Ferry runs every hour with the last departure at midnight.
Once on St. John, a rental car will be preferred for the 20 minute drive through the National Park to Coral Bay and your villAllure experience.
