The Maho Bay experience really suited us, but it's important to know what you're getting into before choosing this "resort". Staying at Harmony Studios is billed as "luxury" by the resort, but although comfortable, it's actually borderline "rustic". Overall, Maho Bay-Harmony Studios is rather similar to staying at rustic cabins that one finds in may US and state parks in... more

We just returned from St. John, having spent five nights in a Concordia Eco-Tent, and four nights in Harmony Studios (H1B). We truly enjoyed ourselves and could possibly return to Harmony in the future, but it did not "wow" us. Another poster suggested that their unit was not properly cleaned. I felt the same way when we arrived. There were... more

We were very disappointed in Harmony Studios. For the price, we expected more. The studio was old and dirty inside. We also spotted at least 2 roaches. I don't think they clean the studios between guests. Per their own instructions, we were asked to sweep the floors, wipe the counters down, etc. When we did so, it was clear that... more

This was our first stay on St John. We had heard about Maho Bay and thought that would be an interesting place to stay with the kids and liked the idea that Harmony studios have their own bathrooms. St John is beautiful, truely a special place, worthy of the national park designation. The view from our studio was spectacular, we... more

What a wonder place. Truly paradise. Not a place for pampering however. The studios advertise "hot water" but it just aint so. The solar water heaters give you a tepid shower at best. And there ARE bugs - mostly roaches in the room, but hey - it's the tropics. The food was well prepared and quite tasty, if a bit... more

My husband & I spent 4 nights at Harmony Studios after years of looking at Maho Bay brochures since before there were websites to look at. Friends of ours had stayed at Maho and complained about the many steps from their tent to the bathroom, so since we were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, we decided to splurge on Harmony... more

My family of 4 just returned from a week at Harmony. We got two units (my children are teenagers), and that worked well. The units would be very crowded for four. As other reviews note, the accomodations are pretty basic. We found them adequate in terms of comfort. We did not have trouble with insects, and were comfortable sleeping at... more

We are 63 and 64 years old, and we have travelled to St. John on several occasions. This year it was "my turn" to select where we stayed. I really wanted to stay in the Tent-Cottages, but my husband, not quite so adventurous as I, said "no"...he wanted a private bathroom...imagine! So, we stayed in Harmony 6-A. Let me tell... more

Each of the Harmony Studios is a two unit. One on top of the other. We stayed on the lower unit (a few bucks cheaper) and my folks were in the upper. From day one we had bugs. Not little water bugs, mind you, I mean giant "Fear Factor" cockroaches every night. On the third night I awoke to a... more

We stayed at Harmony several years ago, so it has probably changed in that time. But I'm sure the views are as fabulous as ever. True, it requires about 500 steps to reach the beach, so make sure you have everything with you when you go. At the time the Park Service presented fequent evening programs about the natural splendors... more
