KTCruiserFL Posted June 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hi! We will be in St. Martin on July 4th. We have booked a day pass for the Sonesta Maho Beach resort. I know the resort recently opened back up after major hurricane damage but I’m concerned about the reviews I have seen online. Has anyone been to this resort lately with a day pass? We’re there chairs available at the pool and beach? We’re the drinks and food readily available? Thanks in advance for the feedback! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTCruiserFL Posted June 23, 2019 Author #2 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Has anyone visited this resort since reopening in April? I would love to hear about your experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayman9966 Posted June 26, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2019 You on the Harmony? I was there a few years ago, but know it was all destroyed and getting refurbed. Sorry I can't answer, but that place was super nice when we were there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candleonwater Posted October 9, 2019 #6 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Yes, please tell, did you go? We are flying to St Maarten in a month and staying at this resort. Have heard mixed reviews about how much they have recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candleonwater Posted November 13, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I just returned from my stay at the Sonesta, and here's my take. I don't think I would purchase a day pass for the resort. There really isn't much beach to speak of. What beach there is, is okay, and there's no major drop off walking into the ocean, though. The other option for "beach chairs" is on their "fake beach", overlooking the real beach, but as is everywhere, there are chair hogs, so if you're not there early, forget getting a prime spot. As for the pool... chair hogs, once again. People were out at 7am placing their belongings on the chairs. I also found it weird for people to be IN the pool, smoking. Also, the bartender at the pool bar sometimes has to be reminded to actually put alcohol in the drinks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 23 cruises, we've visited a lot of islands, and St Maarten has always been one of our favorites. Even more so now. Looking at going back in January. Would love to move to the island. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
