We are visiting Sint Maarten for my 60th birthday. We arrived at the Maho resort next door and they took us and luggage to the ocean point. The lobby is big and open air. It’s very hot! We were greeted with a welcoming drink and we checked in pretty fast. Are room was very nice. It was warm in the room. The AC would only cool the room to 73. To me it was to warm and sleeping was tuff specially with all the sun you get from being on the island. The bed was a king and was way to hard. We woke up every morning with are backs killing us. We had a great view of maho beach. There was 4 big bottles of liquor. I don’t recognize the brands. We didn’t open any. We spent a lot of time around the pools. There was pool boys taking drink orders from the guests. Sometimes the service is a slow but that’s a island thing lol. We loved Azul restaurant. They changed the menu daily.We had breakfast there and dinner there a few times. The food was really good.we also like ocean terrace buffet restaurant. They also have different foods available daily. There is also 24 hr room service. We ordered coffee and fruit plates in the mornings. We ordered some cheese burgers and pizza around 11:30 and it came within 30 minutes. Food was very hot a good! You have to walk off the resort property to get to maho beach. It’s right there. The water was awesome. I don’t think the resort has any lounges or umbrellas on the beach for use. There is a sandy area with chairs and umbrellas right near the beach entrance. There was also dairy and nightly live music at the pool and resort. We liked that a lot also. All the resort workers are very polite and friendly. Always asking if everything is ok and if we needing anything. There very hard workers. We tipped them very often for the services. I recommend bringing money for tips. We tip a couple bucks for meals and dollars for drinks. Bartenders seam to pay more attention to the people who tip.lol. We definitely had a great time and would definitely come back again. I wish they would work on the ACs and upgrading the beds there. Yes we still do recommend this resort for vacationers. I got home last night so I’m writing this now so it’s all fresh in my head. I also have lots of photos to share.…

Decided to go to Sint Maarten for my bday and chose this hotel. The hotel was very clean upon arrival and check in was easy! We chose the swim out room which is amazing! Who doesn’t want to be in their personal looking at the ocean. The room was clean our sliding doors didn’t locked but the fixed it after a fews calls to the front desk! Room is a little smaller than usual hotels with the swim out but who cares! The hotel staff was very nice well some of them! First Sharon @ the Ocean Terrace is amazing ! We had an issue with one of the waiters the first night and from then on out Sharon made sure we were taken care of! The bartender at the Oasis Bar is a sweetheart ! As far as food it’s ehhh! I don’t want to give it bad review because I’m vegan so my options were limited. It had its days ! The vegan burger and Margarita Pizza was amazing tho! All I’m all I will be back and I will be here! They made the Covid crisis easy . Thank Sonesta for the best bday!!!!…

We loved it so much and can’t wait to go back! We were a little apprehensive about being so close the airport, but that ended up being part of the fun. We enjoyed all of the restaurants at this resort and the sister resort. The views are spectacular, the staff was nice and accommodating for the most part, and the grounds are nicely kept. Big shout out to Sheryl at the pool bar, she had the best attitude and gave us advice on things to do. All and all, we wouldn’t hesitate going back and doing it all over again. Highly recommend if you want a relaxing vacation in a beautiful spot!

Where do I even begin?! My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. We decide to splurge and go with the swim up junior suite. That was the BEST decision! We loved being able to come back to our room and unwind with just the 2 of us for the majority of the week in our pool! The staff on the adult only side is TOP NOTCH! Specifically Niel, Mat, Shingai, and Kadesha! They really made our trip so memorable by making our experience special every time we we interacted with them! Definitely go to the tour desk to book any excursions! We did the rhum distillery tour and going through them, the package included transportation and lunch! We also rented a car from the lobby and it was super simple and convenient! This was our first time at an all inclusive and I can say, they absolutely set the bar high!…

Everyone there was friendly and helpful. The food and drinks were top notch. The view of the ocean from my room was amazing. The beach was gorgeous. I felt completely safe as a woman walking around and exploring the sites. I would definitely go again.

Most beautiful views and friendliest staff! We have stayed at a ritz not as nice as this. We have a local sonesta where we live and this was so far above what we expected! Excellent food, staff and clean- and I am picky. We couldn’t believe the value. The planes landing add to the experience and don’t bother you! Maho beach is beautiful and even though a little eroded, easy and pleasant to swim from. 10/10 experience

Just returned 5 days ago and wish I was still there. What a wonderful resort and staff. Kudos to Sheryl at the adult pool and Jean at the lobby bar ( Ocean Point ). The entire staff except 1 bartender were all exceptional. Room was clean and water pressure was excellent. Food was average. We had lasagna at the buffet and it was the best meal we had. Wonderful. Pool is awesome for watching the planes and from 3-5p they have musicians there playing light music, nothing to blow your ears out. The Planes , the planes the planes. Excellent viewing and the main reason we went. You can wander down to Tortuga and rent 2 chairs and 2 drinks for 30.00 and watch the planes right over your head. No need to go to the Sunset bar unless you want to. The ocean is a bit rough but beautiful. Book a spa on the cliff at Serendipity with Flores, you wont be disappointed. Most all inclusive I have been too do not encourage or accept tips. At Ocean Point it seems to be the norm and is accepted. Beware that the buffet is shared by both resorts. For quieter meals use the Ocean Point restaurants. Choices seemed limited though. There are a few shops outside the hotel for any souvenir shopping and high end jewelry. Great margaritas at 3 amigos ( not included ) Overall you will not be disappointed in this resort. I'd go back again and again…
