JULY 26, 2019 FORBES  ̶  The 5 Best Resorts in The US Virgin Islands

“Though located on St. Thomas, the busiest of the three islands, the aptly named Secret Harbour manages to feel a world away from the crowds. The property is on a lesser-known part of the island that is home to smaller hotels. Since there aren’t all-inclusive resorts in the area, Secret Harbour isn’t swarmed by a spring-break surge — making it a tempting proposition to book year-round. This is a top choice for travelers looking for seclusion and solitude while still having easy access to the bustling ports (and happening nightlife) on St. Thomas. Additionally, children under the age of 13 stay for free.”
