Canadian review on Dec 25th is a gross misrepresentation. We have owned and stayed at Flamingo for over 20 years and our two week Christmas visit was our second THIS year. William at the front desk greeted us with a beaming smile and selected an oceanfront studio for our 15 night stay. He is a key reason why the service... More

Flamingo Beach Resort has one of the premier settings in St. Maarten with great views from units in Building 7 specifically. You definitely want to get an even numbered room. You can easily get by without a car as many amenities - Simpson Bay harbor, small grocery store, many restaurants, a night club (Red Piano) are all within easy walking... More

Undoubtedly one of the worst hotels. The front desk staff were surly and singularly unhelpful. We arrived late in the evening with Luggage for a two week stay. The place is large and there was no offer to show us to our rooms. We were simply told to go through the parking lot and up. There was no one to... More

Stayed here for one night while enroute to Saba the following day. I do not understand how so many people have given this place positive reviews. Upon arrival in the unwelcoming lobby, we were greeted by an incredibly rude female desk clerk. No hello, no welcome to the island, she literally looked up and said "what?" Really? The resort is...

We spent a wonderful week in a lovely one bedroom with ocean view. The place was very comfortable and very clean with all top of the line appliances et al. I highly recommend this place. More

We stayed two nights at Flamnigo Beach in a deluxe one bedroom oceanfront suite for a few Diamond timeshare points. If you book here go for the oceanfront rooms. Our accomoditions were first class. Big balcony, huge living room, nice kitchen and comfortable bedroom. More

Stayed at the Flamingo for an additional 4 days on the end of a 8 day trip. The accommodations were great. We got lucky and were in the main building at the end of property overlooking the little french restaurant and road. It was great. We don't stay in our room much. The rest of our party got a room...

Our original booked hotel was so bad we went looking for another hotel on the Island. We used a website to book a 3 night stay (two persons) and payed about $300 during high-season (december). For this kind of money we got a big, spacious clean room with a shower, two flat screens, a comfy big bed and a pull... More

We stayed at this resort Nov 17-25. Check-in was easy. We had a 1 bedroom 3rd-Floor ocean-view with nice bath, e/i full kitchen, LR and balcony. The unit was in great shape. There was a lot of closet space too. They were updating most of the rooms with new appliances, matresses, and 42" & 32" flat screen tv's. We just... More
