Location: Hull Bay, Northside, USVI - St. Thomas, Caribbean (On Tropaco Point, Less than a mile from Hull Bay.) View Map

Accommodations:  Apartment, 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)

Perched just thirty feet over the ocean, this tastefully decorated apartment - which is actually the first floor of a two-story house - has the feel of being on a yacht (the owners are husband and wife who worked in the yachting world for many years).
Situated on Tropaco Point on St.Thomas'northside, overlooking Hull Bay,with views extending to the south, west and north, Hidden Cove is a breath-taking, special place for those searching for something out of the ordinary.

From your off-street parking area, a private entrance leads down a staircase to a lighted garden path and your "land yacht." Everything you need awaits. A slim, covered deck fronts the length of the apartment with a larger,open area for dining. You can easily while away time watching surfers, clouds, pelicans, sugar birds and the sea. Sleep to the sound of the surf on down pillows in the mahogany, queen-size sleigh bed, made up with high-quality linens. Ample storage space is provided by a closet, antique armoire and bureau.

Sip your morning beverage at the dining table or outside on the deck under the umbrella. Relax in the attractive sitting area and watch cable TV, a DVD, read, nap or listen to music. Terra cotta tiles and ceiling fans throughout are cooling and comforting.

In the sumptuous bath you shower on river-stones while gazing out to sea. The kitchen meets any chef's requirements with gas range, microwave, Cuisinart cookware---everything you need to make a meal, large or small. If you enjoy cooking, this "galley" could inspire you.

Stone steps wind down through our terraced half-acre and end at the "hidden cove." Halfway down the steps sit two large wooden decks---one for shade, one for sun. Once at the cove, with surf conditions permitting, you can climb down the rocks into waist-high water to swim or snorkel on the reef and beyond. Some of the best snorkeling off the coast of St. Thomas lies just beneath your hideaway.

Hull Bay beach, less than a mile away, provides an invigorating ten-minute walk or a three-minute drive. Well known Magens Bay, just to the east, is about a 15-minute drive.

We will meet you at the airport and lead you to the property. A complimentary bottle of Cruzan rum, and bottled water, for the length of your stay, are provided.

Wedding and event planning are also available through the owners, one of whom is a wedding officiant and coordinator.
Hidden Cove---a romantic, peaceful, out-of-the-way spot for two---a one-of-a-kind sanctuary in the Caribbean.

  • We just got back from a 2 week stay at Hidden Cove and loved it! Carol & Joe are gracious hosts. We loved the property the minute we saw it. The views from the balcony and master bedroom are phenomenal. The apartment is so adorable and tastefully decorated -- I wish I could move in! My husband and I enjoyed snorkeling from the apartment to Hull Bay. All the recommendations Carol & Joe made were excellent -- loved the Bobby Rod Roll :) ! We will definitely recommend Hidden Cove to our family and friends. We look forward to our return stay. Thank you so much Carol & Joe for your hospitality, friendliness, and making our stay most enjoyable. Regards, Ann & Dennis New York, New York

  • Wow, what a great place! We just spent 8 nights and enjoyed it tremendously. The view is wonderful, the accomodations are nice, and they have everything you could ask for, even beach chairs and snorkel gear. Carol and Joe are gracious hosts and we found ourselves not wanting to leave long enough to go sightseeing. This was our first "non resort" tropical vacation and it was all that we hoped for! No hustle and bustle, just quiet relaxation. And it's a short drive to Red Hook or Charlotte Amalie if you do want some hustle 'n bustle. While you're there check out the Hull Bay Hideaway, the beach bar/grill just around the corner, it's not touristy at all, very affordable and we enjoyed visiting with the local folks. We give Hidden Cove a big thumbs up! Jim & Donna Calera, Alabama

  • We just got back from a 5 day stay at Hidden Cove and it was by far the nciest place we have ever stayed at. From the moment we arrived we felt as though we were at our own home. Carol and Joe were wonderful host. The snorkeling and the view right off the apartment was amazing. All of the recommendations Carol made were excellent from restraunts to beaches. We will definately be returning to Hidden Cove for a much longer stay next time. Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us. Jon and Wendy

  • Hidden Cove was by far the nicest VRBO we have stayed at. The unit is tastefully decorated and more than adequately furnished. From the fully equipped kitchen to the tiled bath with a shower large enough for two ; ) , to the handsome master suite with it's comfortable bed, Hidden Cove is nice enough for a gourmand to spend a lifetime there. We sure wish we could. However, physical attributes are inadequate to describe this place. The view from the decks are perfect during the day and mesmerizing in the evening. We hope to never forget Captain Joe washing the walks every morning with a smile an a kind word. It is hard to imagine more thoughtful and caring hosts. From the time Carol met us at the airport we felt we were friends. Thank you Carol and Joe, our stay at your place was our dream vacation. Sincerely, Tom and Sherri Koppelkam

  • Dear Carol and Joe - Thank you so much for the amazing week at your hidden cove paradise. We fell in love the minute we saw the property, and enjoyed every moment we were there. The snorkeling was phenomenal, just not enough time to take it all in. Which is one of many reasons why we are definitely coming back next year! The property was amazing; however, it did not compare to the hospitality and also the helpfulness with our wedding planning. We could not even dream for a more perfect wedding day. Thank you Carol, for all your help planning the events leading up to the day. We could not have done it all without you! We have found great friends in the Virgin Islands. We recommend this place to anyone who enjoys relaxation, extremely friendly hosts, and a beautiful getaway. Thanks again! Your friends, Shaun and Jeanette

  • We stayed 4 nights at Hidden Cove and it easily could've been 40! The property was a slice of heaven and provided a great respite from the busy pace of our daily lives back home. Everything from the views to the snorkeling to the bed and bath surpassed our expectations. We also enjoyed the proximity to fabulous Magens Bay Beach. Finally, we couldn't have found better hosts than Carol and Joe. Thank you for the experience - we can't wait to return to the US and British VIs!

  • Hidden Cove is a perfect get-a-way for a huge slice of R & R, eliminating the hustle bustle of hotels. It was everything that we had imagined, inclusive of perfect hosts. Carol and Joe are wonderful people. Hidden Cove was both nicely decorated and clean. Carol went beyond the 'call of duty' on Sunday afternoon, immediately replacing a troublesome coffee pot. Possibly she was fearful that her Canadian guests would quickly go into withdrawal ! Thank you for making our stay most enjoyable. We are anxiously awaiting our return. Thanks again. Regards, Annette & Andy

    Carol & Joe, Our stay here was fantastic! We will definitely miss breakfast on the deck counting the igaunas---we gave them names of our friends---and watching the bananaquits bathe in the rainwater trapped by the agave frond. The snorkeling at Hidden Cove was the best we found on the island---we were out there every day. The apartment is beautiful and very tastefully furnished. We liked the lizard pottery so much we drove to the Kilnworks and bought some. The DVD collection was also nice---it was fun to watch Pirates of the Caribbean again while actually being in the Caribbean! The week at Hidden Cove was beautiful and relaxing. Thanks!

    Dear Joe & Carol, Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful place. We have enjoyed it to no end! The snorkeling, relaxing and swimming have almost got us charged up enough to head home. Almost...We might just stay another 5-10 years!! Thank you so much for your hospitality, friendliness, help and joy. God bless you both as you enjoy the rest of summer!

    Carol and Joe were gracious enough to let us stay here for two nights while we looked at real estate in the area. This is a beautiful home with owners who really take pride in their property. We did not see that in the real estate we explored. Had an enjoyable time in the apartment and in the cove. Would highly recommend this to others. What a wonderful piece of paradise!
