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

We just got back from a week at Harmony. I agree with many of the other reviews -you need to be prepared. Other than a private bath the studios are the same as the tents - you are still camping. You also have a much longer walk which isn't advertised enough in the literature. We saw lots of people struggling... more

Stayed 6 nights from 6/26 thru 7/2. Great view from unit A6, most likely the best from any unit. Close to 500 steps to the beach, don't stay here if you are not in shape. No a/c, 500 steps and summer heat in the tropics you have to adjust to always being hot and sweaty. 3 of us ran up... more

Just back from a four night stay at Harmony Studios and felt it was the right choice. Originally had reservations at The Westin, but switched to Harmony after reading about the Westin beach at Tripadvisor. More on that later. Rooms were cool enough with fans. Mosquitos were almost nonexistent until 2 days after it rained; then they were moderate. 437... more
