This is a pretty resort and the staff was wonderful. We had an issue in our room that required we move to a different room and they accommodated us with no issues. My only complaint is with the quality of the food. I've spent time at the Divi in Aruba and there the food was great, so I expected the same in St Maarten but that was not the case. An since the resort is not within walking distance of other restaurants you have to rely on cabs (~$12 a trip) or rent your own car to get anywhere. The thing I loved the most was having a room steps from the beach. The beach was clean, the water was amazing and the staff were very helpful with getting us set up with chairs and umbrellas. And we did do a bit of shopping in Philipsburg (dropped a few coins at Neil's Jewelry. Neil and his sister are awesome and our purchases were beautiful), but overall the town is a bit run down. Between Covid and hurricanes I don't think they've fully recovered. Overall we were glad we went, but not likely to make a return trip.
