Top Lay Bay Beach Hotel Reviews

Hilton Vacation Club Flamingo Beach St. Maarten

10/10 Excellent

"The property looked exactly like it did in the photos. It was clean. The staff was friendly and very, very helpful. Great location if you are not driving, but also includes free parking.."

The Atrium Beach Resort and Spa, an Ascend Collection Resort

10/10 Excellent

". One of the most underrated properties on the island. I was genuinely surprised by how low its rating is because my experience was excellent. The hotel was spotless, the rooms were spacious, and I even received a complimentary upgrade. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from start to finish. The AC worked perfectly, which was a huge plus after spending time in the Caribbean heat. The location couldn’t have been better, just a five minute walk to the restaurants, bars, and nightlife. I highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting the island. It delivered great value, comfort, and convenience, and I would absolutely stay here again."

La Vista Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place for a nice getaway. had a room penthouse room with a view superb view. Staff was cool and funny. Pool was super clean and calm. not too far from the strip, roughly 10min walk. Hotel restaurant was delicous. Only downside is that if you want to walk back to your room, it is a steep hill to climb, but since I was vacation it wasn't a problem for me, buy may be a problem for others."

Pelican Key Studio-pool, near the beach. The best area on Dutch side!

10/10 Excellent

"An absolute treasure of a stay. Such a great location for a great price. The compound was walking distance to many amenities and beaches while also being a very familiar place for taxis. The pool was crystal clear, AC and fan worked perfectly as well. Kitchen had all the necessities no complaints there. Our host and her grand daughter were so delightful and made our stay so comfortable. 100% when visiting Sint Maarten I would rebook with Marina. :)"

Renovated Apartment with pool and ocean view#4

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely ocean view thru the patio doors which was perfect when seeking relief from the sun and relentless wind. Decor was tasteful coastal chic and all incredibly spotless. Big comfy bed and good pillows. Felt very safe here and in the neighborhood in general. Great stay!"
