Amazing Property!!!!!
Reviewed By FarAway681505I visited for my Birthday in May and I was very impressed with everything!! The check- in process, the staff, my suite was a 1.bedroom on the Oceans side and it was beautiful. The property was maintained very well and I would see the staff working hard to do so daily!! I must say my stay was extra special because of the manager Tina!!! She was spectacular and so resourceful. Tina is genuinely friendly and caring and always made sure my party and I were always happy. I recommend this hotel for sure. I will be back this year!!! Renee F

Phenomenal team treated us like family; excellent food; nice rooms with full ocean view; suboptimal beach
Reviewed By crosvsThis was our first trip in 2+ years; our first with our new baby; and my wife's birthday celebration, too. Unfortunately, due to a room mixup at La Playa Orient Bay (review forthcoming pending a dispute), we had to change hotels after our first night, and Naomi and the rest of the front desk staff literally saved our vacation by getting us into a spectacular full ocean view room on Day 2 of our vacation. So first things first, a *HUGE* shout out to Anissa, Davia, Latoya, John, Kelly, and Mathilda! You guys totally treated us like family; and we miss you all. Thank you for your kindness, your sincerity, your helpfulness. Our little one says hi! :) As for the hotel itself: - Vibe: 5/5. Very modern/chill Southern California vibe but without a crazy party ambience; the perfect balance of "cool" yet "relaxing" - Food: 5/5: By far the best food around SXM - Service: 5/5. Everyone from the front desk, restaurants, beach bar, and even the room cleaning team, is second to none (though room service is not provided). - Comfort/quiet: 5/5. Exceptionally quiet and comfortable rooms. The upgraded rooms are awesomely modern, but the non-upgraded rooms actually offer a few benefits like a ceiling-mounted fan so you can turn off the AC at night and leave the window open to hear the waves outside. (We experienced both rooms due to limited availability necessitating a room change.) - Beach: 3/5. It's calm and pretty, so good for families with babies in the sense that it's not rough waters; unfortunately however, the sand is full of debris including broken glass that made for an unpleasant feel. Also, frequent cruise ship passengers spike the beach crowd from several 10s of people to several 100s (or more). Fortunately, Divi Beach is just a 5-10 minute tax ride away and is one of the finest beaches on the island with no crowds, great casual food, and beach chairs/umbrellas and cabanas available ($15-$30). A huge thank you again to the entire team at Holland House. You guys rock. We'll miss you! *hugs*

Great location and great service
Reviewed By K9103ZDroberteWe initially booked for one night prior to joining a cruise out of Philipsburg but enjoyed it so much that we booked in again for the two additional nights on the island post the cruise. The location couldn't be better for enjoying the lovely beach or for exploring Philipsburg. The rooms that we had (we were travelling as two couples) were perfect for what we required and were priced accordingly. The team on the front desk were extremely helpful and couldn't do enough for us. When trying to find the best way to get our Covid tests on a Sunday (all closed until Monday), prior to flying via Miami to the UK, they contacted a local clinic who came into the hotel to undertake the testing. That's what I call service. An unexpected surprise that made the extra days in St Maarten, a holiday in their own right.

A bad experience
Reviewed By marjudeWe booked 2 nights in advance of boarding a cruise ship. Because of stringent Covid reporting requirements at the airport we missed our flight out of Chicago and had to take a later one to Miami where we spent the night. Having paid in advance for two nights we showed up on the second night and we’re told the had no rooms. We are both over 80 and they wanted to take us and luggage back to the main road where we could get a taxi. The desk clerk candidly admitted that they sold our room to others.They seem to feel double booking is their right. They finally found us a room on the top floor with no water or electricity or telephone. Then the moved us to a lower floor where the were still cleaning at 10:00 p.m. There was someone’s food in the fridge. I asked to see the manager but was told she wasn’t in. The reception clerk said nothing in response to my questions about double booking our room when we missed the first night. The bellmen probably saved our lives by moving our luggage and helping us get food through our ordeal. Avoid this place!
