My mother and I traveled here for her first view of the beautiful Carribean. Big mistake. This is definately NOT a 4 star resort maybe 11/2 at most. Yes it is on the ocean, but they fail to mention in the bochures that it is a crushed shell beach instead of the sand that you expect. Also the beach drops... More

This is in no way ,shape or form a "four star" resort! This is a "has been" and in its defense, was probably, at one time, a really nice place. Everything is very dated and in need of a complete update. The damages from past hurricanes have not been completely repaired and signs of mold are everywhere. I did not... More

The only good thing about this property is its proximity to town. I would strongly suggest you stay elsewhere. Unless of course you are on a diet and want to lose a few pounds because of the terrible food.

the complimentary newspaper was never slipped under my door until after I left the room, which sometimes was at late as 10:30. My room was not cleaned until around 4pm, and one day, when she came knocking, I had just come back from a full day on island, and she said if she couldn't clean it now (3:45pm), then it... More

The room was not up to a four star rating. The patio doors would not lock. The air conditioning leaked water all over the floor- we had towels on the floor for a week, to dry up the mess. If you want an iron or ironing board- forget it- we asked three times and then gave up. The food is... More

If you want a Pina Colada with rum be sure to ask for a "Pina Colada with rum." Asking for a Pina Colada will get you Pina Colada, sans the rum. The housekeeping staff has no problem entering your room after a quick knock. If you want privacy, make sure your interior door locks are secured. For the most part,... More

The Great Bay @ St. Maarten, in the Caribbean is currenlty listed as a 3-1/2 star hotel. My wife and I, along with other couples agreed that it is quite tired and in need of renovations. We heard horror stories of toilets overflowing and low or no water pressue; but did not experience those challenges. What we did notice was... More
