Your search for the perfect Caribbean vacations, holiday rentals or honeymoon hideaways may have just ended. For unforgettable Caribbean vacations where tree frogs and hummingbirds feel just as comfortable as you do, you've come to the perfect web site.
With 30 years of site sensitive resort development, and in response to the growing ecotourism movement, Maho Bay Camps has created comfort and convenience in these spacious dwellings just up the hill from Maho Bay Camps on St. John, in the US Virgin Islands. Caribbean vacations will never be the same again.
Harmony Studios are apartments available at Maho Bay Camps. The other apartments available are Estate Concordia Studios located at our sister property on the other side of St. John.
Thanks to many new technologies, and the popularity of ecotourism, it is now possible for "green" travelers to enjoy Caribbean vacations in close proximity to nature while staying in dwellings constructed almost entirely of recycled materials. They are built with site-sensitive techniques that preserve, protect, and even enhance the fragile ecosystem.
Our resorts are all built on the same concept; creature comforts for all creatures. We have demonstrated that environmental sensitivity, human comfort and responsible consumption are all compatible. Each facility on St. John (the least populated of the US Virgin Islands) has its own comfort level, from basic to almost luxurious. We have made Caribbean vacations even more desirable for those travelers who want to tread lightly on the land and go home feeling as if they had helped to preserve some of our most precious natural wonders.
Maho Bay Camps, just minutes down the hill, is probably the most highly praised ecotourism destination in the world. After modest beginnings in 1976, before ecotourism was part of our vocabulary, we enjoyed great success and built Harmony Studios using the same sensitive construction techniques that respect the natural environment. The dwellings are connected by elevated walkways to minimize soil erosion which endangers the beach and fragile coral.
A short 5 minute walk from Maho Bay's tent-cottages, with breathtaking vistas of the Caribbean's white sand beaches and turquoise waters, Harmony Studios are a long way from "camping". In the fast growing ecotourism movement, this is ideal for Caribbean vacations catering to people who want very comfortable, private accommodations with appropriate sensitivity to this diverse tropical environment.
Harmony Studios provide more creature comforts for its guests including large rooms and private bathrooms. Its close proximity to Maho Bay Camps (both inside the US Virgin Islands National Park) lets vacationers, honeymooners and families take advantage of the secluded beach, all water sports; kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, snorkeling and scuba diving. The splendid pavilion, restaurant, store, gift shop, various cultural events and convenient transportation, are all available at the Maho Bay campground.
Today you can be part of the ecotourism movement and enjoy guilt-free Caribbean vacations in spacious two-story buildings that use the latest techniques in sustainable resort development. The architecture employs passive solar design, rain collection and roof scoops that draw cooling breezes through the well-furnished rooms.
Construction methods minimized removal of vegetation and use recycled building materials such as "plastic lumber", recycled glass tiles and steel nails. Interactive computers in some units monitor daily energy use. Harmony blends great Caribbean vacations with the international ecotourism movement.
