Hotel at a Glance: Sonesta Great Bay Beach Resort, Casino & Spa
Between St. Maarten's Great Salt Pond and the Atlantic Ocean, the Sonesta Great Bay Beach Resort, Casino & Spa spans a land bridge that links the adults-only, limitless all-inclusive resort to the beachfront pleasures that characterizes the island today. Its location along the Great Bay Beach puts you in the midst of a tropical paradise—Frommer’s writes that “you get killer views virtually anywhere and everywhere you plop yourself.” And those staying here get access to only resort's spa, three swimming pools, and nightly entertainment, but also all the amenities at its sister resort, Sonesta Maho Beach Resort.
- Go for a swim in one of the three swimming pools or belly up to the swim-up bar for a chilled cocktail
- Grab a bite at one of the four on-site restaurants, which range from the casual buffet-style Bay View Restaurant to the more formal, ocean-view Il Pescatore restaurant and wood-fired pizza at Tre Assi Pizzeria
- Head nearby to enjoy access to all of the amenities at the sister resort called Sonesta Maho Beach Resort, which features a tiki village, casino, nightclub, shops, restaurants, and swimming pools
- Try your hand at one of the casino's table games, including roulette and poker
- Pamper yourself with a massage or facial at Serenity Spa
- In-room amenities: Tropical decor, coffeemaker, WiFi, stocked minibar, and glass-walled balcony overlooking the seashore below
St. Maarten: Scenic Shorelines, Lively Nightlife, and Boutique Shopping
The island of St. Maarten, located just south of Anguilla in the Caribbean, was ranked on U.S. News & World Report’s list of the Best Islands in the World for its “soaring mountains and beautiful shorelines.” This gorgeous topography has been peacefully shared by the French and the Dutch for more than 350 years, giving the island two very distinct yet harmonious personalities. Both parts of the island, however, feature crystal-clear bays filled with fascinating coral structures and tropical fish. On the French side, it’s worth it to take a guided snorkeling trip through Creole Rock, which has a collection of boulders encircled by reefs. Dolphins, eagle rays, and barracudas are frequently spotted here.
The Dutch side is known for its quiet beaches and lively nightlife. Casual barbecue restaurants known as lolos line the shore; they serve up heaping portions of creole ribs and rice alongside guava-berry rum. The bars of Simpson Bay are filled with live music and neon lights, and when those close, locals and visitors alike keep the party going at 24-hour casinos.
Maho Village—also on the Dutch side—has its fair share of casinos as well. Nightclubs here host steel-drum bands and oceanfront bonfire parties late into the night. At the Maho Promenade, situated in the center of town, 40 duty-free boutiques sell fine jewelry, watches, and handsome handicrafts. Most shops, cafés, and restaurants stay open until 11 p.m., so you can enjoy a nightcap amid open-air patios as musicians and dancers perform nearby.
