Secret Harbour Beach Resort

Really nice boutique hotel. Staying up on the hill, the views were incredible. Large one bedroom suite, nice little kitchen. The steps up the hill are reasonable. Beach bar and adjoining restaurant were excellent and prices were in line for being on an island. Plenty of chairs and umbrellas on the beach with good spacing in between. Mostly older crowd so it’s peaceful. Snorkeling was as good as any we found in the VI. High quality rental equipment on the property for $20/day. Taxi to red hook (main dining area) and ferry to St. John was about 5 minutes. Get the number of your taxi driver so you can text for future pickup requests. Much more efficient. Pro tip: the bar will fill up your water bottles with filtered water. If you’re looking for a peaceful vacation with a great beach and fantastic snorkeling, this is a play you may want to consider.

Lovely cove and a nice quiet beach. The people were friendly and the housekeeping staff were excellent! The room was a bit dated and worn but we didn't mind. We did get a room overlooking a trash heap and had trouble finding any convenient outlets in the room. Annoying.

We liked our room, it was clean Kitchen appeared stocked with enough items to cook a meal. Unfortunately we had to leave early due to a family emergency. We were there only two nights but check in and check out was easy. The Sunset grill breakfast were good. The water isn't so great definitely recommend ordering the bottle water or buy some on your own. We beach is small, comfortable and the water was lovely.

Suite had a good deal of deferred maintenance. Kitchen sink faucet didn’t work well. Water pressure in the shower was very poor. Mattress in bedroom was very old and deformed from extended use. Room service was ok however they never showed up at consistent times. One day they never showed.

A beautiful location, perhaps the best on the island. While the facilities are a bit the worse for wear, and the housekeeping is very minimal, the staff is gracious & helpful, the restaurant is good with an incredible view, and overall low-key and very hospitable.

Nice property. I booked a single night and later added two nights. I called to make sure the reservation was combined so we would not have to move rooms. They refused to honor this even with over a month advance notice. We had to pack and store our bags and wait five hours to only be put two doors down. Staff did not try to accommodate us at all.

Our studio room was very nice and the view was amazing! Unfortunately we had to go up about 70 steps to get to our room from the beach. The beach itself is very nice and the water is calm for swimming. The restaurant food was pretty good. We didn’t like the way guests were allowed to get up early and put towels on the beach chairs and then not show up until hours later. All in all, a nice place to stay.

Great food , amazing beach at day and night . Close to Redhook for excursions and night life . Polite front desk .

Avoid this property (not worth the money!). When a property charges over $500 USD per night for an entry level room, there are certain amenities and level of service that is to be expected. We stayed here for new years 2023 and was disappointed with our overall experience for the reasons below. 1. There are no staff on the beach to take your order or deliver your food (you must walk to the restaurant, order, and bring everything back to the beach yourself). 2. There are NOT enough beach umbrellas, and this is a public access beach (both nights during our stay we did not have access to umbrellas in a timely fashion). Also, there is no staff to move umbrellas to your location of choice. 3. No room service. The room TV clearly indicates room service with delivery, but if you place an order with their restaurant (Sunset Grill or the Patio), you again have to pick it up yourself from the restaurant yourself and bring it to your room. 4. Breakfast hours are false. Clearly advertised that breakfast hours go until 11am. I showed up at exactly 10:37am and was given a hard time and was told I had to rush and place an order immediately because “breakfast hours are not taken after 10:45am” since they have to switch from breakfast to lunch. And you cannot place a lunch order until 11:15am! Highly inconvenient and false advertising (so they expect people not to order anything between 10:45-11:15am).
