"Staff was great... very helpful in any issue we needed... on-site restaurant was great... breakfast each morning was very good... air condition was good... shower water pressure was a little low... over all very happy with our stay"
"We stayed for four nights, at Margaritaville prior to moving to my timeshare. We had an excellent stay. Our rooms were very nice and clean. The staff were very friendly. When we return to St. Thomas (may not be for awhile - lots of other destinations on the list), we will definitely keep it in mind."
"Its an Oasis for the money. If you can afford higher end you might not like it fully. Immediate easy access to a beautiful beach area. Full kitchen , bar and coffee shop on site. If you want to shut it down for the day at the resort , you will have everything you need. Even kayak and jetski rentals. It worked out very well , no complaints ."
"We love secret harbor. We got married here and returned for our 5th anniversary this year. I must admit it is expensive compared to other resorts on the island but it has EVERYTHING! The beach is quiet and chairs, umbrellas and towels are included rather than an extra cost. The snorkeling right off the shore is amazing! If you don't have your own equipment there is a dive shop on property. Rental was only 15$ a day. My husband and i took an intro scuba dive which he LOVED! no experience needed. There is casual and fine dining on property and both are delicious! Shout out to the cook who was willing to make us bacon wrapped plantains even tho they are no longer on the menu, because we loved them so much 5 years ago! Also to Samuel, the bartender who taught my husband how to eat whole red snapper, which was delicious btw! All the staff were so amazing! Asha the receptionist, Brad, the other bartender, Elijah, the waiter. Everyone makes you feel like family. We hope to spend more special anniversaries here!"
"The pools were clean, the coffee shop was great, the restaurant was convenient but not bad food, the room itself was spacious, it was definitely dated but I wouldn’t call it dirty. For the price you couldn’t beat it! The walk to the beach was strenuous so if you have small children/ are a bit older I wouldn’t recommend it but it was about 15 mins as advertised. They were clearly renovating so I’m sure shortly it will be fantastic. Only negative was that the layout was difficult to navigate without any help, but everyone was super friendly."
