They also have their own signature rums that you can taste test and then purchase your favorite, or get a combo.... More

Resort is actually on Simpson Bay, not Phillipsburg. We never got to check in. When we arrived we were told they don't guarantee rooms in any location. We reserved a pool or ocean view on an upper floor on 2/18 and verified that on 4/30 before we left home. However, when we arrived, they stated they didn't guarantee rooms and... More

This place was very nice and clean. Had some weird smells walking around outside but that could be anything. Staff was very friendly and not pushy about the timeshare thing. Excellent beach and pool. The restaurant, Topper's, was your average Applebee's type place. Nothing extraordinary but fine when you are hungry. the bars have good frozen drink specials daily and... More

The accommodations were amazing. Great view, comfortable bed [I usually miss my Tempur-Pedic's mattress in two day with horrible back pain, but I never slept better!], wonderfully stocked kitchen with cookware and utensils. Great shower and towels [very important to me!], and all the comforts of home. Two flatscreen TVs and a nice size balcony. The staff was very helpful... More

I lived in St. Maarten for 2 years, as did my wife before we were married (we met there). We went back to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. We aimed for a decent place in a decent location, and knowing the island well, we wanted to stay on the dutch side in close proximity to Simpson Bay or Maho.... More

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The view from our room (7230) was wonderful. We had a great view of the harbor and could see the cruise ships heading in and out of phillipsburg each day. There were plenty of supplies in the room, several stores nearby for groceries, and nice washers and dryers in the garage below. We... More

We stayed a week in April 2013 and had a great time. The place was clean and the room we stayed in (studio) was well furnished and clean. The only downside was we did not have a view of the water. We ended up just taking taxies everywhere but cars are readily available at reasonable prices. We ate dinner and... More

I stayed at this hotel for a week in December 2012. Check in was rather tedious and slow. But, when I finally got to my room, I was pleasantly surprised. You can tell it has been recently upgraded/remodeled. Nice kitchenette. Nice wide-open balcony with picturesque view of the ocean. Huge king-size bed. Very comfortable. There is an iHome alarm clock... More
