Love St John, but before booking see if you can find a car rental first.

Thanksgiving is the off season for STJ, there is no shortage of rental cars during that week. Geez.

I agree it is an all-day travel affair to get to STJ, but we did a 6-day trip there and I didn't find the travel to be bad at all. But you will be transiting plane + taxi + ferry, plus your island transport, so wear something comfortable and pack light. The travel to get there was part of the adventure!

We squeezed in a lot of fun activities - climbing volcano and staying overnight to watch the eruptions all night, zip lining and water activities on Lake Atitlan, jade carving, etc. It was inexpensive and fun!

Where did you stay in Guatemala? I’d love to research a trip.
