Myself with three girlfriends spent our last night in St Maarten at The Hideaway Restaurant on the La Vista Resort. The food, service, and ambiance were exceptional. We all ordered different dishes and were all impressed. Our waiter was extremely attentive and the piano music was enjoyable. We would highly recommend this restaurant!

We just returned from a week in St. Maarten, staying at La Vista Resort. The resort is wonderful and we look forward to returning. It is small resort and we really liked the people we met, both staff and other visitors. We had a cottage which reminded us of an authentic Caribbean cottage. It was clean and comfortable with t.v.,... More

It is small but nice and comfortable to stay at. Restaurant was great as well. Sadly, their beach is pretty broken down and we had to drive to spent time on a real beach with good access to the sea.

This was a Registry Collection (RCI) exchange into a 2-bedroom seafront unit during the first week of a 2-week stay in St Maarten. If only a second week had been available! (see my review of Royal Islander La Plage for the plane rotten details of our second week). The main 'plusses' of this resort is its location (access to walkable... More

If you are looking for a 5 star hotel with marble bathrooms and mints on your pillow, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a family run, friendly, clean, simple, beach-life type of place to stay, look no further. La Vista is simple, keep that in mind. A comfy bed, sufficient (if a bit noisy)...

We have gone to this resort year after year and have loved it. The staff is wonderful, the rooms are lovely, the poolside shade allows for long periods of reading without getting burned! The whole environment is great for beautiful walks with great views and access to shops and activities. La Vista's 'infinity' upper pool, by the restaurant and bar,... More

Just came back from one week stay at La Vista Resort. We enjoyed our stay tremendously! This resort was very quiet and peaceful. If you need to get away and relax, this is the place to stay. I mentioned to my friends that this would also be a great place to stay if you needed to make a big decision... More

Couldn't have picked a better location/facility! We stayed in a king suite which is two story. The rooms are clean with pleasant decor. Staff is friendly. Room was very quiet and private. Location ideal with plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Full kitchen with everything you could possibly need was a great addition and allowed us to save money on... More

We stayed at La Vista for one week and our family had rooms 101 and 102 facing the beachfront. We enjoyed our stay here and would recommend this resort for anyone looking to stay in Simpson Bay. • Checkin was prompt and we were provided friendly service all week. • Orientation was on Sunday at 5pm with free pizza, rum...
