Dutch Antilles Ski Holidays

We staying in an ocean view room and it was great! Clean, had everything we needed to be perfectly comfortable. We greatly enjoyed having a full sized fridge and kitchenette so we could make our own food. It was lovely to sit on the patio and enjoy breakfast as we watched the birds and listened to the waves. The pool area was beautiful! It looked like you were swimming in the ocean with the infinity pool. We didn't venture to the beach, it looked lovely but with the Atlantic exposure on this side of the island we chose to go explore some of the beaches on the Caribbean side of the island instead. The staff hotel and restaurant staff were very competent. We used the hotel suggested car services (taxi) and met Juan the first day, he turned into our unofficial tour guide and restaurant suggester for the our stay on St. Maarten. We also enjoyed meeting the other guests who were at the resort, many of whom had been back to this resort and St. Maarten regularly for 10, 20 or even 30 years. This is a lovely property and even though we were in the older part of the complex, we were very happy with our stay at Oyster Bay.

The property was excellent. Our room was clean and spacious .The Ocean view was gorgeous The staff were friendly and professional , There are several restaurants at this location The beach and pool was great I did not get a chance to visit the spa( but next) love the property

Staff were friendly but not exceedingly helpful. Someone could have taken 2 minutes to show us to our room. Instead we struggled to find the place in the rain. Also, when we entered the room we noticed a message that they would fumigate room next day and we climbed to have that done. The property should do that when place is vacant. Does not make for a great impression when one first arrives. The room is designed nicely but a little tired and needs to become modernized. I had assumed that the gym would be included but not so. One has to pay extra for that. Lastly… room cleaning seems very erratic. We ran out of towels and had to ask for cleaning. Would not rate this anywhere near a 9 but more like a 6.5.

Overall, the place is clean, new, and beautiful, with a lovely water view and a spacious environment to stay on the island. However, the property does not have a restaurant, bar, or direct beachfront access. Anyone staying there must rent a car, otherwise it is not convenient to reach local restaurants or the beaches. In addition, the bathroom shower could be improved — when showering, water tends to flow onto the floor, and sometimes the hot water is not hot enough.

The rooms were clean and the pools were beautiful. Unfortunately the pool bar and restaurant closest to our room was closed for renovations but everything was beautiful
