    Stayed here for our honeymoon. The views from the beach front rooms were gorgeous and the beach was rather quiet and clean our entire visit. Staff was very friendly from the moment we got there in getting us setup in our suite and whenever we needed anything. Rooms were nice, though we did have a bedroom AC that would not get very cool, and the toilet stopped refilling with water on our last day. The bar and restaurant on site were a frequent stop during our stay and had great food and drinks. Also loved the local kitties that made an appearance every night at dinner. Fairly priced accommodations and lots of space. Would stay again!

    Awesome resort and location, clean and nice rooms. Some of the best snorkeling right from the beachfront. Very friendly staff and attentive. The only disappointment was the restaurants didn't have many food options on the menu. The sunset grill is over rated and our waitress was mediocre at best, not attentive to our table for service. However the Patio service and bar is a much better experience and service. Again the menu selection is limited for breakfast and lunch and dinner are the same menu.

    Entrance to Secret Harbor Resort

    Recently spent a week in Virgin Islands and had the pleasure of staying here on two different occasions. My first night was upon arrival. The room and view were the perfect island ambiance. Woke up to the beautiful beach and the smell of great food. Went to the Sunset Grille that night for dinner and the manager on duty, Johnnie(sp?), gave me and my party 5 star treatment. The food was excellent. My friend had the red snapper, which she described as mouth watering . Our host had a seafood dish and I had a tasty chicken entree. We visited other islands during our stay as well. When we returned to Secret Harbor we were assigned a different room which was even more impressive. We ate breakfast that next morning in the cafe...wonderful service and great food!! We took lots of selfies and live videos on the beach and even went kayaking!! Relaxing in a hammock in the evenings and sightseeing during the day were my favorite experiences. Our host used her passport ID to register and somehow it became lost. Also a phone charger was left in the room from our initial stay. The manager, Javier, was able to locate them and both were returned. For me, the staff was friendly and helpful each and every day no matter what time or need. However, I can't say the same for my friends. We did have some issues which were resolved by the manager. I've read so many of the other reviews and I'm not sure what was going on during their stays or if those people traveled together and each write a review but my experience was nothing short of fantastic. Maybe because I went after the extremes of covid lock down. I plan on returning for more great fun and relaxation. Prayerfully it will be great again.

    We stopped in here to check out the beach and parking said restaurant only, so we went to the restaurant. We would not be disappointed!!! Service was amazing. Seated right away. View was beautiful atmosphere was casual. Waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful. They had build your own pizzas and there specials. Wife built here own said it was great. I chose there beef gyro it was Amazing with Hand cut fries. Gyro came with pieces of gyro meat falling out of the sandwich

    GREAT location, right on beach with great sunset views (no sunrise view). The cove has very good snorkeling (turtles and lots of fish) not a lot of coral. We stayed 8 nights in building 2 on 3rd floor and it was fabulous. It is not 5star but the view is and that was the reason we chose this place. We visited other resorts during the stay and are very happy about our choice! Frenchman, Margaritaville, St Ritz - none had a better balcony beach/ocean view. Other location amenities and higher end features were may be better but it comes down to location to beach, beach access and view and for the money you will not find anything better in my opinion!

    Main building with restaurant, health club, spa and dive shop.

    Looks old, and the kitchen is terrible, they will NOT accommodate any changes to their menu. Wish we would have picked a different resort.

    Great empty beach with good snorkeling. Limited parking available. Saw plenty of turtles and the resident octopus.

    Our resort (Margaritaville) had a free shuttle to Coki Beach which was nice! It was a short drive…read moreover and when you get off, be prepared for the tourist trap. A guy met us right off the shuttle to sell chairs and an umbrella. I think both together was under $20. While you're on the beach, there's people selling drinks, food, jewelry, etc. We were approached by a woman who took our order for one fried snapper, a couple of sides and two beverages (one alcoholic, one mocktail). We paid $99 for this. Make sure you have cash because it's easier to pay for things on the beach. We didn't have enough cash to pay so I had to get the establishments Cash App and pay that way. Or you can go to an ATM on site. Now... we had a great time relaxing on the beach, the view is absolutely beautiful plus the clear water BUT if you want something less crowded, I would say to find another beach. There were water activities like snorkeling, taking photos on a clear kayak, and so on so that was nice. There are also surrounding vendors to get ice cream, food, souvenirs, water, etc. Since we took a shuttle, we made sure we caught the last one of the day back to our resort. All in all, it was a beautiful beach day!

    Parking is difficult and it's insanely crowded here. This is definitely a tourist trap. They charge…read more$7 per chair and $12 for an umbrella, which is fine if they want to, but then they are very rude when you turn them down. One of the men kept telling us to move so he could put more chairs right where we were and told us we were "in his way." It's a public beach and I should be able to lay on my towel where I'm not in anyone's way and not get this treatment. This behavior also extended to others that didn't pay for chairs. The snorkeling isn't even impressive here. We snorkeled nearly every day for over a week at different beaches and this was bottom of the list. Glad we weren't planning on staying long anyways. I literally enjoyed this place soo little, that I forgot to take pictures of it. Drinks were weak, but the fish we got was tasty and fresh.

On an early trip someone explained that the Caribbean is just at a position in the ocean that the rides are not small; brief internet searches suggest the tide only varies a few inches to a foot or so... such small changes don't lead to many waves. You'll likely see and enjoy hearing waves "lapping at the shore," but you're not likely to do much body surfing... if you have a boogie board, while you could bring it on your flight, you'll likely be better off leaving it at home. - - - Gift Shop - t-shirts, hat pins and more - - - - - - Thank you - - - Thank you to all the park team members who maintain Cinnamon Bay Beach, and to the taxi drivers getting us visitors to and from the beach! ----- ----- -----

The internet says it's one of the most famous ones and I can see why - the water is crystal clear, bright blue (as are most of the other national park beaches lol). It's spacious though, and in addition to the beach itself, there is a snack vendor area where you can buy lunch (like sandwiches and drinks), and a gear rental place for snorkeling etc. They also have a small restaurant adjacent to the campground cafeteria area which does breakfast and dinner (but not lunch). They have pretty clean bathrooms and showers too, and the most parking of all the beaches that I went to. They even had an info booth; the lady there was fairly knowledgeable about the park although I don't think she was an actual ranger (she wasn't in the ranger outfit). There's also a little area right at the entrance to the beach that is part of some ruins, it's a nice photo op spot. Overall this is a great beach! Def recommend.
