Not sure of your budget but if you are willing to splurge the Ritz is great..rum punch upon arrival, the infinity pool, hoist your flag from your beach chair and staff will bring you a drink..lol, great views of St John..it's beautiful.

You may want to ask about "Chez Suzanne" at Gallows Point..She offers a 15% owners discount..came to $289 a night..Not sure if that is more than you wanted to spend but we were there in May and loved it.
