Detailed Reviews
I just returned from Harbour Beach Villas with my wife. We stayed for only 4 days so we did not rent a car. The taxi ride from the airport to the beach villas was about an hour since we had to make a few stops for other passengers. The villas are at Secret Harbour on the Eastern end of St Thomas so I would recommend a car for longer stays. The fare was about $32.00 for both of us. We were greeted by Harvey who showed us our room and gave us an upgrade from a studio to 1 bedroom. He explained everything and was easy to reach if anything was needed. There is no front desk or lobby so Harvey brings you right to your room. He was great. The room had a full kitchen and was very clean. The view of Secret Harbour from our balcony was incredible The beach is just down a short path and was very easy to access. Beach chairs are included. The beach at Secret Harbour is small but beautiful and very relaxing. There is a Beach grill ( Sunset Grille) and restaurant. Really good service and a great happy hour! ( 3 hours to be exact) . The ferry to St Johns is in Red Hook and only a few minutes ride by taxi. Would recommend going to St John . We went to Trunk Bay. Outstanding beach!! Ate dinner one night in Cruz Bay at Joes' Rum Bar. Great Spot. Perfect quick trip and would certainly come back for a longer stay.

We are on our last night here and have had a great stay! So much space and everything we needed. Beautiful bathroom and updated kitchen. Harvey the manager was super helpful at check in and quick to answer any calls with further questions. View spectacular and a 2 minute walk to the beach below. We have two kids, 18 & 13 and Harvey was very helpful to find the best condo for comfortable sleeping arrangements for everyone. Only negative was that the AC was loud but that's a very minor complaint. Would definitely stay again! We rented a Jeep and it was very easy
To get around here with it. Much better than a taxi!

I've stayed at the Villas on my 3 previous trips to ST. Thomas, and will be staying there again November 2016. The villas are extremely nice, and the staff is very accommodating. I love the views of the bay from up on the hill. Relaxing and peaceful. Absolutely beautiful. Would highly recommend as a place to stay in ST. Thomas. I plan on staying there every year I visit the island.

We recently stayed at Harbour Beach Villas at the east end of St. Thomas. Our condo was 2 bedroom, 2 baths with plenty of room for a family since the living room sofa and love seat both make into beds (we didn't use them). The condo was very well equipped and homey with ocean and beach decor. The view overlooking Secret Harbour is absolutely incredible. Being up the hill from the beach - a very reasonably short walk - put us by the wonderful swimming pool. It also got us away from the noise of the beach, bar and restaurant when desired. Besides the beach bar and restaurant, we were only 4-5 minutes out of Red Hook which offers a number of restaurants, bars and the ferry to St. John. The beach is super and even has a dive shop on sight. The bay is a marine sanctuary and offers some of the best snorkeling on the island - we saw a sea ray, a moray eel, a small lobster, turtles, many fish and abundant coral heads. We recommend Harbour Beach Villas to everyone we meet!

This condo property was exactly what we were looking for! #726 and most of the others have dynamite views and sunsets from the spacious balcony. The unit was a hotel studio with a preparation island full stove and oven, microwave, dishwasher, and full refrigerator. Sofa, table, and king sized bed.
We have stayed in the Secret Harbor area before; but, since we would be there 7 nights, we were looking for a more affordable option for some of the nights, than the beach front (on the sand) property where we stayed before.
Be aware that the steps up from the beach itself are many, but that affords the spectacular view and the pool right below our balcony.
We can recommend Harbour Beach Villas and especially want to thank Harvey for his wonderful hospitality. He took us into Red Hook several times as we were there without a car. That gesture alone would make us return to this property.

Secret Harbour Villas is the perfect place to enjoy a stay on the paradise island of St. Thomas, VI. We just returned a few days ago from an eight day stay. Ours was a beautifully decorated and fully equipped two bed room, two bath room villa. The view of Nazareth Bay from the villa was incredible.
We especially enjoyed being just a very short walk down to Secret Harbour beach, which is wonderful, but at the same time staying up the hill and away from the busyness and noise of the crowd, the restaurant and the bar. And, the large swimming pool, which we really enjoyed, was up by our villa and just a few steps from our patio.
The villas are perfect for couples and families. Don't be confused by Secret Harbour Beach Resort - be sure to specify Secret Harbour Villas when booking your perfect vacation in paradise.

There is nothing special about these rooms except for the incredible views. The view is just amazing. They are well maintained, clean, and spacious. The kitchen is fully stocked. The bed is comfortable. The furniture is a bit dated and nothing fancy, but it works just fine. You have access to the facilities of the beach resort, including a nice pool and lounge chairs and hammocks on the beach. The restaurant on property is very good. You can walk to the beach - and it has amazing snorkeling. Don't expect a fancy four star resort, but for what it is, this is a great deal.

The Studio, One Bedroom and Two Bedroom condos (secretharborvillasvi.com) are a great choice for couples or families who want to stay at the premier location on St. Thomas, USVI. The beautiful condos are located just up on a hillside above Secret Harbor beach and offer fantastic views of Nazareth Bay and beyond. In addition to sun and sand, the beautiful beach offers you the best snorkeling on the island. And Aqua Action Dive Shop, located on the beach, rents snorkel equipment and paddle boards, as well as dive, snorkel and pleasure trips directly on the beach. Also, Sunset Grill and Bar, right on the beach, serves great meals and drinks all day.
Other BIG pluses for these condos are: they are up and away from the crowds and noise associated with the beach activities; they are adjacent to the fresh-water swimming pool that is a great place to end your day in the sun; and, they are priced significantly less than the condos on the beach.
We love staying at Secret Harbor Villas and can't wait to return!

ST Thomas is very nice. We enjoyed our time at Secret Harbour. It is quite spendy, but everyone there was friendly. We would stay there again. The beach is very nice and very well kept. It is very quiet and relaxing.

Harbour Beach Villas is about a two minute walk to the beach. However, each one of our villas has an amazing view of Secret Harbour because they are nestled in the hillside.
Yes, you can find fishing charters at the nearby dive shop or you can visit Red Hook which is a five minute drive away for more options. Our General Manager is always happy to give you personal suggestions.
There are no laundry facilities in the units. For extended stays, arrangements can be made with our General Manager for some laundry services.
Harbour Beach Villas is about an hour away from the airport. Taxis are readily available once you land and will be able to get you here quickly.
