Caribbean Islands Vacation Packages

Great property in the perfect location on the island.

Included in our stay was a complimentary breakfast for 2, which was amazing! Fresh croissants and pain au chocolates with yogurt, juice, and coffee. The view from the room was breathtaking as well. The cleanliness in general was good, but there was obvious dust collecting in places like the mirrors. The ventilation also had visible dust in the air. The staff, while friendly, were difficult to work with. There is not someone there at all times, except for security at night. They give you phone numbers to call staff members after hours in the event of an emergency. Our air conditioning went out in the evening and it was almost unbearably warm. I placed more than 20 phone calls between all the numbers provided and couldn't reach anybody. I was eventually called back after 10pm and was told someone would be working on it. I was then contacted after 11pm saying they couldn't fix it, and they would be willing to move my whole family to another room for the night. As my children were already asleep, this wasn't a reasonable fix. This resort is also quite a distance from anything tourists go to the island to do, so a lot of time is spent driving each day. This could be good for those who are looking to be away from the hustle though. For most of the time we were there, our experience was acceptable. Unfortunately the gravity of the problems we experienced really left a bad taste in our mouth. The price was reasonable for what it is, but I don't intend to stay there again.

The property was in an excellent location. Best location on the entire island with wonderful views of the ocean and watching the airplanes land. Great views from the 5th floor veranda. The food at the Hotel was expensive but pretty good. The food was better at both nearby restaurants. The SandBar and Sunset Bar and Grill were a step above and better priced. Tortuga which is located just a block or so on the other side was also excellent! The town of Maho also has a grocery store so you can stock up on essentials. Out of the 4 beaches we experienced on the Island, Mullet Bay Beach was by far the best. Better than Orient beach. The Arrow Restaurant on airport road was also excellent. I don't recommend renting a car as the roads are too narrow and traffic can be horrific. Taxis are cheap and plentiful. Bring $250 cash to pay for taxies over a 10 day period. Most rides are $15 to $25 one way. Taxis are new and very nice. Drivers are excellent and fun to talk to. Much cheaper and safer than renting a car. The staff at the front desk did not go out of their way to tell you about excursions on the island. We almost had to pry it out of them. It is best to select excursions at the hotel and have them pick you up and drop you off at the hotel so no need for a taxi. This was extremely helpful. I would recommend this hotel in a heartbeat. Next time we stay we will ask more questions at the desk regarding excursions and things to do.
