A Hit Out of the Park!

Secret Haven not only lived up to its description — it exceeded our expectations in every way. The house is beautiful but comfortable, thoughtfully equipped for maximum enjoyment and well, the location really can’t be beat. It is perched just up the hill from Secret Harbor so you have all the benefits of a resort while having the space and privacy of a home. The view from the house is spectacular! Bri is an amazing host - we felt well taken care of. Don’t hesitate - just go!! This was a family trip for us —3 generations and we ALL loved it!!

Wonderful two weeks…

This property is in a fantastic location with an incredible view, great amenities, and a caring, communicative host. We spent time at the resort below the house, took snorkeling trips to St John and the BVIs (with Susannah and Kenny at Stormy Pirates Charters), and went to Red Hook for several lunches and dinners. We really enjoyed breakfast at The Tarpons Table. It’s also fun and convenient to take the ferry over to St John for shopping and dinner. Taxis are always available at the resort and we used them to shuttle people to the airport when necessary. Brianne allowed us to stock groceries beforehand and it was nice to arrive to a fully stocked kitchen. There are also two grocery stores within a 5 minute drive from the house. Brianne greeted us at the house and was quick to respond to any issues or questions that arose. We have rented a lot of houses through VRBO and this whole experience was very simple and a great, peaceful getaway for family and friends. I recommend it highly and would gladly rent it again.

Fantastic stay at this beautiful villa!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Secret Haven. The house was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The host was helpful and knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations for restaurants as well as an awesome boat trip. The location is super convenient with a beach and restaurant just down the hill. It was also 2 minutes from the ferry to St. John. We will definitely be back!!!

Great trip!!

Our family had a fantastic time at Secret Haven Villa! The view is incredible and everything was right there at our finger tips. We had a fabulous day trip to St. John for beaches and shopping. The host recommended some phenomenal restaurants and a trip to Water Island which we absolutely loved. The house was so cozy and felt like home. We didn’t want to leave and so look forward to going back!!!

Excellent location and a great house. Very spacious and fantastic views. Only a short walk to the beach and restaurants. Bri the property manager was very gracious and communicative. We will re-book here in the future. Also a big shout out to Caribbean Concierge for a job well done and to our driver Mike who went above and beyond!

Captain Arnoldo provided the perfect day on the water including scuba diving. His knowledge of diving and general information about the island was much appreciated. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Couples Retreat & Celebration

We spent four nights in this four bedroom villa for a couples retreat & birthday celebration. The home is very clean and each bedroom has a spacious en suite bathroom, which was especially appreciated while traveling with couples. The property is well-maintained and, although the pool is great, the proximity to Secret Harbour Beach is the real treat here. The property manager is also very attentive and helpful. I recommend this property to couples and families without hesitation.

Happy Traveler

Brianne is an incredible host and I just can’t say enough good things about her. The property itself is stunning! It is beautiful, located in a perfect area and had absolutely everything we could ask for. We spent 1 week here. Within that week we went to the beach literally right across the street, took a ferry to St John, ate local food minutes from the house, at an upscale place minutes away as well. We had a terrific pool day as well as made food at the place. So gorgeous comfortable accommodating and peaceful. All I can say is thank you Brianne you are the best!!!

HEAVEN ON EARTH

Our group had the most amazing time at Secret Haven...and are looking forward to coming back in the future! Samantha was incredible and so helpful with all of our groups requests and needs. I also recommend using Spas to Go - the couples massage on the balcony while listening to the waves roll in, was pure MAGIC! Thanks again Samantha for opening your gorgeous home to our group. It was by far the trip of a lifetime and the house was BEAUTIFUL! We can't wait to come back :)

AMAZING Experience. Location is PERFECT.

The location of this house was perfect for our trip. Home is very nice and well appointed. It had everything we needed and plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 7 teens/kids. I absolutely loved this location on the island. So many things are within a 10 minute drive. The beach is such an easy 3 minute walk. The pool is a huge plus, especially for groups with kids. They also did a great job of providing service. We didn't need much, but they were available and willing to help if needed. Most importantly, our travel got screwed up due to flights and they were very accommodating and helpful. Thanks again for helping us make wonderful memories.

Secret Haven

Beautiful property. Our family loved the bedrooms with the attached bathrooms. The view was spectacular. Nice kitchen, dining and living area. The wrap around covered porch was so nice. Multiple seating areas and great views of the Secret Harbor bay. The bay has a great public beach and we loved being able to use the beach chairs and umbrellas from the property. Suggestions would be a sign posted on the gate area that says Secret Haven and the address. The pool is wonderful. Several of the pool floatation devices have leaks. The draperies in the bedrooms are very sheer. Hard to sleep in. Upstairs bathrooms drains are very slow to empty. Also could use more beach towels.

Beautiful view and short walk to the beach!

The house was clean and had a beautiful view. I do want to note that the listing had listed 6 beds in 5 different bedrooms, so we had to have our guests bunk up together when they thought they had their own bed. There are ONLY 5 beds in this house. The downstairs bedroom door was broken and would not lock, so our girls had to open the door between the rooms and all use the same door for entry and exit from 1 bedroom. Oh, and the digital safe that we tried to use in the master bedroom couldn't be unlocked. The owner didn't even know the passcode for it.... We were getting married and wanted to lock up our very expensive jewelry, but had to take it with us instead. The paddle board was fun to use and the beach chairs were super helpful.

Best Carribean vacation ever!

Just returned from two glorious weeks at Secret Haven with our adult children and grandchildren. The villa is beautiful, pictures don’t do it justice. The villa is clean and has all the amenities you could want including central air. The pool, with floats and noodles, grill, porches with a variety of furniture in the shade, putting green and beautiful landscaping made the outdoors as inviting as the villa. Sam met us upon arrival, provided helpful information, answered our questions and made a few suggestions of places to eat and shop. She checked in periodically to be sure everything was going well and was always quick to respond to our messages and attend to our needs. Secret Harbour beach is a short walk and had great snorkeling. You can rent chairs and umbrellas, however, there are trees on the beach so even with little ones there was plenty of shade. A short ride away was Lindquist Beach (which was our favorite). There are picnic tables, a bigger beach with powder white sand, plenty of shade and sun, great snorkeling and it was never very crowded. Enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommend Secret Haven Villa. Hope to return again.

OH, What A Vacation!

Enjoyed eight fabulous nights at Secret Haven Villa vacationing with the family to celebrate our fortieth wedding anniversary. The villa's accommodations, amenities and location were second to none! We could not have been happier with our home away from home. The villa was updated and clean. The bedrooms were spacious and the on-suite bathrooms provided both convenience and privacy for us, our adult children and their spouses/significant others. The newly renovated kitchen and the living area were perfect for preparing meals, gathering to eat, playing games, and engaging in casual conversation. The home's decor made us feel like we were staying in an island paradise. The villa's amenities met all our needs and the view from the deck, master and living area was simply amazing. The pool, grill, putting green and chipping surface were all put to good use during our stay. But for us, the biggest asset was the location. You could easily walk down to Secret Harbor beach and take a short ride into Red Hook for the St. John ferry, restaurants and shopping. Samantha greeted us at the villa and acclimated us with the property and the operation of its many resources. Samantha also served as a convenient property manager and a concierge for our stay. She responded quickly to any needs and shared helpful information regarding beaches, restaurants, shopping and sight-seeing. We would love to make a return to visit to Secret Haven Villa in the future, perhaps with some grandchildren. John from New Jersey.

Gorgeous views!

We loved this house! We were 3 couples from cold Michigan - in our 70s, 50s, and 20s - and we all had such a good time. The beds and bedrooms were very comfortable, and it was great to have so many bathrooms. My favorite was the covered porch to watch the activity below in the secret harbor while enjoying a cup of coffee. We enjoyed drinks and the sunset there at night! The resort below was excellent and we enjoyed the chair rental, beach restaurant and scuba lessons one day. The atmosphere was so relaxing and everyone was very nice. And the food was excellent. Brianne met us at the house for check in and was so helpful. The house is well stocked with towels, coffee, paper products, spices. We wanted to watch the Michigan/Alabama football game and found a great large tv and delicious carnitas at Agave in Red Hook. The best shopping we found was at Moe’s Fresh Market in Red Hook. Food is expensive everywhere and this had great fresh produce, meats, and wine. I also recommend Captain Mike at Fury Charters for a sailboat/snorkle with turtles trip. It was fantastic! We rented a car, which we found helpful, but you could manage with taxis from the resort. Just know they get pricey at $8 per person to Red Hook. My only recommendation would be a stronger shower in downstairs bedroom 5 and a larger dishwasher. But I know these are hard to change - just a suggestion if there is future renovation. Overall, we just loved everything!
