Secret Bay offers strong family amenities, including a dedicated Kids Concierge and spacious multi-bedroom villas, making it a Family Preferred destination.
Secret Bay provides an upscale retreat with spacious bungalows and villas, many featuring kitchenettes and private plunge pools, catering to families seeking a residential-style stay. With direct access to two Caribbean beaches, complimentary watersports equipment encourages outdoor exploration for all ages.
Perched on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea, Secret Bay offers a refined yet natural atmosphere across its collection of rustic-chic bungalows and villas. Families will appreciate the self-catering options provided by kitchenettes in every unit, with larger villas offering expansive indoor/outdoor living rooms, outdoor showers, hammocks, and private plunge pools or hot tubs. The resort is set directly on Tibay and Secret beaches, providing easy access to the clear Caribbean waters. While there are no dedicated children's programs, complimentary use of bikes, kayaks, and snorkeling gear allows families to engage in various outdoor activities together. Located just 2 km from the town of Portsmouth, it suits families with older children or teenagers who value privacy, nature immersion, and independent exploration rather than structured kids' entertainment.
