The roomy tent-cottages are nearly hidden by lush foliage providing ultimate privacy. Translucent fabric on wood frames, screened windows and open air terraces take advantage of the cooling Virgin Islands trade winds. Many units have beautiful hillside views of the turquoise Caribbean waters, nearby islands and spectacular sunsets.
Each has a separate sleeping area with comfortable twin beds. You will find an extra mattress behind the sleeping-couch in the living area. Bed linens, blankets, towels, cooking and eating utensils are also provided, as well as a propane stove and ice cooler. Every tent-cottage has its own private deck, electric outlets, lights and fans. Additionally, barbecue areas and fresh water are available along the walkways.
The secluded white sand beach and year-round tropical climate offer a variety of popular water sports (with expert instruction available) including kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, snorkeling and scuba diving. Massage, yoga, National Park presentations, weddings, live music and other activities are also available. Glassblowing demonstrations are one of the most popular activities--you will be mesmerized watching beautiful glasswork made from crushed bottles in our Trash to Treasure Art Center.
The immediate area around Maho Bay Camps has beautiful hiking trails including walks to historic plantation ruins. The town of Cruz Bay offers active night life within half an hour via local taxi service.
The outdoor restaurant on one of the two large pavilions serves breakfast and dinner daily with a variety of healthy and delicious meals, always including at least one vegetarian entree. The dining area has one of the Virgin Islands' most unforgettable views, especially at sunset.
A free "help-yourself" center allows departing guests to leave books, sunscreen, staples and other items is a convenient recycling mentality for newcomers.
St. John has no airport, so if you fly to the Virgin Islands you will land at the airport on St.Thomas. A taxi or shuttle takes you to Red Hook where a pleasant twenty minute ferry ride takes you to Cruz Bay on St.John. Ferries leave every hour on the hour from 7:00 AM to midnight 7 days a week, every day of the year. Frett's taxi-shuttle makes seven trips every day from Cruz Bay to Maho Bay Camps and Harmony Studios through luxurious tropical landscapes in the USVI National Park. Frett's last trip meets the 9:00 PM ferry from Red Hook. If you are going to Estate Concordia or the Concordia Eco-tents you will probably want to rent a car in Cruz Bay.
