Spirit of the Sun Music Festival & Wellness Retreat will be at The Windmill Bar in Saint John, USVI. December 10th-12th, 2026. Located at 17 A, Cruz Bay, 00830, U.S. Virgin Islands. 

You do NOT need a passport because it is the U.S. Virgin Islands. You fly into St. Thomas (STT) and then take a ferry over to Saint John. Open air taxis are readily available, but for the most flexibility, you may want to rent a car. You can rent a car on STT and take car ferry over OR you can rent a car on STJ and take passenger ferry over. Concierge service is available if you book accommodations at The Hills with us. 

The music at The Windmill Bar is free! The Wellness Retreat Offerings at The Windmill Bar Campground up the hill can be purchased here and range from drop in class to day and weekend passes. 

We are partnering with Vacation V.I. They manage everything from simple apartments in Cruz Bay to multi-bedroom villas perched up the hill.

The Villas at The Hills are perched above Cruz Bay, where panoramic sunsets meet whisper-quiet privacy just five minutes from town. Perched high above Cruz Bay, you’ll be greeted with panoramic

views of neighboring islands and the sapphire-blue waters surrounding St. John. Each villa features a fully-equipped chef’s kitchen, private verandas and all the comforts of home. Several villas feature their own private pool and patio providing the perfect setting for a romantic sunset dinner. Community Pool and Concierge services are available. A per-person charge applies so we need an accurate headcount to obtain exact pricing, but to give you an idea…

 $860 per night per 2-bedroom villa (based on 2 people; villas sleep up to 4-6 people)
