I really and truly enjoyed myself in St Maarten. I enjoyed myself so much I look forward to seeing this resort on the Getaways page on Groupon every time I open up the app. The resort isn't too far from the airport. The hotel staff, from the maids, to the security, to the men who work in the casino to the bingo person was amazing. Everyday I ate the jerk chicken wrap. LOVELY! Lovely! Lovely!

Hotel at a Glance: Sonesta Great Bay Beach Resort Casino & Spa

Set between St. Maarten’s Great Salt Pond and the Atlantic Ocean, the Sonesta Great Bay Beach Resort Casino & Spa spans a land bridge linking the adults-only, all-inclusive resort to the beach. Its location puts you in the midst of a tropical paradise—Frommer’s says you’ll get “killer views virtually anywhere and everywhere you plop yourself.” Guests get access not only to the resort’s spa, three swimming pools, and nightly entertainment, but also to all the amenities at a sister resort, Sonesta Maho Beach Resort.

  • Go for a swim in one of three pools or belly up to the swim-up bar for a refreshing cocktail.
  • Grab a bite: Offerings at the four onsite restaurants range from casual buffet fare to fine dining with ocean views.
  • Sister resort amenities: casino, nightclub, shops, restaurants, and swimming pools
  • Pamper yourself with a massage or facial at Serenity Spa.
  • Enjoy the view from your private balcony overlooking the seashore.

Saint Martin: Scenic Shorelines, Lively Nightlife, and Boutique Shopping

The island of Saint Martin, 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. There’s also shopping to be done; the Saturday market in the town of Marigot features arts and crafts vendors, while boutique shops along the Rue de la République emphasize brands from high-end designers.

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. Maho Village 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.
