We have been traveling to St. Maarten as a family now for nearly ten years. Without a doubt, we always stay at the Sea Palace. It provides for a clean, quiet and comfortable environment for my kids and wife. We always feel welcome, like family. Rooms allow for cooking and a wonderful view of neighboring island Saba. During the day,... More

with the addition of the boardwalk, the sea palace stands as the premier hotel/condo on the waterfront. many have given dismal reviews. i have found that the sea palace stands equal with all of the surrounding commerce. what sets them apart is the service and sincere friendliness of the staff. i will include alex, joe and myra, yes the front...

Everyone at Sea Palace was very nice Joe will go out of his way to do anything to help you. You must go to the Greenhouse down by where the ships come in... More

We asked them to set up an appointment for SCUBA diving; three days later they approached me wanting to know what I wanted to know. They had a detailed piece of paper I wrote with what I wanted to know about each SCUBA shop. I told them my cousin got it arranged for me 2 days ago. Service - They... More

If you have any wishes or thought, just tell them at the front disk and they'll steer you in the right direction, We were there the last 2 weeks of October with out married daughters and they loved it. It was great you could beach it during the day and go out out night.

Needs updating. There are a few rooms facing the ocean that may be okay the room that we stayed faced roof tops, the balcony was screened in with no view and if you rent a car you are on your own to find parking and there is very little. Toilet leaked and TV did not work on arrival but was... More

The Sea Palace has a great Caribbean feel to it. It doesn't have a pool. But who needs a pool when you have the ocean! We have a pool home, so thats not a big deal to us. We spend most of our time at the beach or exploring all of the wonderful beaches on the island. There is so... More

Where to begin??? Rooms need updating badly, bathrooms dirty and falling apart. The bed we slept on killed my back. We stayed 2 nights and had to find other accommodations. It's a shame because the staff was helpful and friendly. The beach area was beautiful, but we had our kids with us and the hotel is not in the best... More

This property was old and needed some serious updating. It was located on the beach but the water was foggy.....not clear like Caribbean water. The cruise ships docked directly across the bay. There were plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance but don't walk around at night. Lots of shady looking characters hanging out. One street back off the... More
