Unpack the suitcase.
Put on the flip-flops.
You're staying awhile.
Your getaway includes a one-bedroom resort accommodation at Margaritaville Vacation Club St. Thomas.
You'll have more room to relax than a traditional hotel room and a true resort home base for four nights in the Virgin Islands.
Spend your free time by the pool.
Grab a drink.
Find something to eat.
Enjoy the Caribbean atmosphere.
Or do absolutely nothing.
That's allowed here.
✈️ $200 AIRFARE CREDIT PER GUEST
YOU BOOK THE FLIGHT. WE HELP PAY FOR IT.
Every guest receives a:
$200 AIRFARE CREDIT
Guests book their own airfare, giving you the flexibility to choose your preferred airline, schedule and seat.
Departure Depot will designate recommended Southwest nonstop flights between Orlando (MCO) and St. Thomas (STT) for the getaway.
Southwest currently operates nonstop service between Orlando and St. Thomas. The specific March 2027 flight numbers and times will be communicated once that schedule is available.
Southwest Orlando to St. Thomas flights
🚌 TRAVEL WITH THE GROUP — WE HANDLE THE TRANSFERS
This is the easiest way to do the trip.
Book the designated Departure Depot group flights and we'll connect the pieces.
THE VILLAGES → MCO
Departure Depot will provide group motorcoach transportation from The Villages area to Orlando International Airport timed around our designated group flight.
No driving to Orlando.
No airport parking.
No leaving your car in a garage for five days.
✈️ MCO → ST. THOMAS
Fly the designated Southwest nonstop from Orlando to St. Thomas.
You purchase your airfare and receive your applicable $200 Departure Depot airfare credit.
🚐 ST. THOMAS AIRPORT → MARGARITAVILLE
When the group lands at Cyril E. King Airport, collect your luggage and meet the Departure Depot group.
Your scheduled transfer takes you directly to Margaritaville.
And you're officially on island time.
⭐ CHOOSE A DIFFERENT FLIGHT?
That's completely fine.
You may select another airline, flight time or itinerary.
However:
GROUP TRANSPORTATION AND AIRPORT TRANSFERS ARE INCLUDED ONLY WHEN TRAVELING ON THE DESIGNATED DEPARTURE DEPOT GROUP FLIGHTS.
Guests choosing alternate flights are responsible for arranging and paying for their own transportation:

• From Margaritaville to STT Airport
Departure Depot will not schedule separate airport transfers for alternate flights.
There is no discount or credit for unused group transportation.
🌅 THURSDAY NIGHT — WE'RE GETTING ON A BOAT
Forget the hotel ballroom.
Forget the formal welcome dinner.
Your welcome to St. Thomas happens on the Caribbean.
🍹 DEPARTURE DEPOT SUNSET WELCOME SAIL
After arriving and getting settled at Margaritaville, we'll head out for our Caribbean sunset experience.
Your evening is planned to include:
✓ Caribbean sunset sailing
✓ Cocktails
✓ Beer & wine
✓ Nonalcoholic beverages
✓ Appetizers
✓ Music
✓ Caribbean views
Grab a drink.
Find a comfortable spot.
Watch the sun disappear over the Virgin Islands.
That's how we're starting this trip.
🏝️ FRIDAY — BEST OF ST. THOMAS
Friday we're going exploring.
But we're not turning your vacation into an endurance event.
We've built a relaxed island day featuring some of the signature sights of St. Thomas.
📸 DRAKE'S SEAT
Head into the hills for one of the island's classic panoramic views.
Look down over Magens Bay, the surrounding islands and that unmistakable Caribbean water.
Take the picture.
You'll want this one.
🍌 MOUNTAIN TOP
Next we're heading even higher.
Panoramic island views.
Shopping.
Caribbean scenery.
And one of St. Thomas' most famous traditions:
The banana daiquiri.
Have one.
Or don't.
But we're certainly giving you the opportunity.
🏖️ MAGENS BAY
Then we're going down to the water.
Welcome to one of the signature beach experiences of the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Swim.
Walk the beach.
Grab something to eat.
Find some shade.
Put your feet in the sand.
Or just sit there.
There is nothing you need to accomplish at Magens Bay.
You're on vacation.
🩴 SATURDAY — LICENSE TO CHILL
We intentionally left something off today's itinerary:
A SCHEDULE.
Saturday belongs to you.
Sleep in.
Have breakfast.
Grab a chair by the pool.
Head to the beach.
Have lunch.
Order a margarita.
Take a nap.
Order another margarita.
Explore St. Thomas on your own.
Or don't go anywhere.
Sometimes the best part of staying at Margaritaville is actually having time to enjoy Margaritaville.
Your vacation. Your day.
