Downtown Philipsburg Holidays from £1,383

Since the hotel lacked a restaurant or cafeteria, the breakfast room service brought in the same products each morning. Breakfast was included in the room rate. The room was clean, and the staff was very friendly.

Pool, Beach , restaurants , shops , coffee / snack bar , what’s there not to love! We used the very nice gym daily although an extra charge of 5/6$ per visit . Bartender at the main pool bar was fabulous ! Rolls weee comfortable , my boys loved the Murphy beds . Market close by , can walk to all the restaurants . Booked a second floor villa and it was perfect ! Loved this resort for our family spring break !

This resort is situated in a beautiful location. The beach is AMAZING. Unfortunately, the resort does not offer a lot of structured activities, so if that's what you're looking for, this may not be the place for you. The buffet restaurant was just okay, but the al fresco dining options are good. The tiles in and around the pools need attention, as does various painting around the resort.

Overall, the hotel is just OK. The service is very inconsistent. On two occasions we waited over an hour and a half for food that should’ve probably taken less than a half hour. One night we waited over an hour and a half for a cheeseburger and fries. Another night I waited over an hour for truffle fries only. Most of the staff was friendly however, there were a few that were not. I was told by one of the staff members who was working at the bar closest to the beach that he was not going to “overexert himself”. He was not willing to bring us drinks and food to the area where our beac chair was although there was a sign that clearly stated that beach service for food and alcohol is from 10 AM to 3 PM and we are on the beach during those hours and not very far from the bar/restaurant. The only service that was consistent was the housekeeping. Every day our room was clean and it was immaculate. There was also a male at the reception desk That was very nice and helpful. I would love to return back to Sint Maarten but would definitely not return to this hotel.

Bénédicte at the front desk is amazing
