JW マリオット セント マーチン ビーチ リゾート＆スパ(JW Marriott St. Maarten Beach Resort & Spa)

We stayed at Dawn Beach Club which was beautiful. Having a 3 bedroom condo with a full kitchen, 2 bathrooms, laundry room, dining room table, and living room was perfect for our group of 7. The pool was gorgeous and the private beach was stunning. Everyone who works there is so kind, always smiling and are extremely helpful. The food was delicious! The grilled & coconut shrimp were favorites in our group. The drinks were yummy. The service by the pool was superb. The security/medical staff came to help with my husband’s cut foot and they went above and beyond what we expected. We just asked if they had bandaids (the one thing I forgot to pack) and they came up, cleaned the wound, went downstairs to cut a fresh aloe leaf and showed me how to cut it and apply it to his foot. I requested the front desk to find me a masseuse and they found Nelly who came the same day I requested the massage. Nelly game me one of the best massages I’ve ever had!

If you’re ever in St. Philipsburgh and someone offers you a scratch ticket, don’t accept it. We got scammed into a free cab ride to the Westin where we would collect our prize. Of course, it’s a timeshare scam. We were told half an hour but soon realized that if we stayed, it would have likely taken up to 3 hours. The people we came into contact with at the Westin are horrible. The woman trying to sign us up for the time share didn’t believe my wife and I were married because she hadn’t changed her last name!! Asked to see wedding photos as proof! Seriously? Then asks my wife why she didn’t change her name… I was honestly very close to giving her a piece of my mind in a very profane manner. But I kept my cool and simply said we’re leaving after about 15 min. Which, pissed her off. The place is literally a dump that’s under construction. It’s also quite literally in the middle of nowhere.. Stay in Simpson Bay. Easily the best location in St Maarten Dutch side. Don’t go to the Westin for any reason. Don’t book there, don’t look at timeshares there… Brutally rude staff and you couldn’t get me to stay there if it was free. Nor could you pay me to stay there… Go literally anywhere else…

The area was always incredible but now the recovery is creating a resort that will rival any on the island. It took us 14 years of going to find oyster pond and now we can't think of any place we would rather be. The renovations at Dawn Beach Club are top of the line. The service is above and beyond. The friendliness of the staff made us feel welcome from the very first minute there. The future is bright and only getting brighter. The area seems secluded but had everything you need closeby.

The timeshare aspect of this facility is a total scam they have basically children recruiting prospective timeshare purchasers on the street with all kinds of lies and cheats stories they’re affiliated with a beach shop there that sells T-shirts and such the owner is a very pushy almost convincing he probably sell snake oil at a carnival on weekends. We consider ourselves versed in the timeshare scams but still somehow let ourselves get pulled into it with the stipulation that we were not going to stay and did not want to but nobody wanted to hear that they were intent on selling it very friendly at first but when finally they found out that they weren’t able to sell it to us they got very nasty very indignant and I thought we were going to get a left there because it is a good cab drive from downtown Phillipsburg not a walk and want to make back so you’re at their mercy to get a cab they paid for it and rightly so. Don’t let the thought of something free for nothing get you in trouble with these people.Thier sole purpose is to sell you a timeshare and roughly $60,000 plus roughly $250-$300 a month in maintenance with a 99 year lease And you can pass this weight of a financial expenses on to your children. Everyone is entitled to make a living but not the way these people do it when you’re on vacation you shouldn’t have to deal with people like this!

Accomodation excellent good sized apartment with all amenities. Great views. Great Pool and staff. Westin Hotel Facilities next door available in a year or so. Currently great value. Atlantic Dutch side of St Maarten.

I am not one to write negative reviews and will normally give a place the benefit of the doubt, however, I feel obliged to warn others of this scam. We were conned into attending a mandatory 90 minute timeshare presentation which, not only was it a waste of our time but more than exceeded the 90 minutes we were instructed we needed to commit to meaning we missed an excursion which we had already booked and paid. When we said we weren’t interested in paying the $17,000 into their scam staff tried to force us into changing our minds. Overall, staff members were very rude and under no circumstances would I stay here when returning to Sint Maarten.

Never accept anything from this hotel. it's cheating on you. It looks great and there are many good reviews, but who made them? Stay far far away, hope all the other dissatisfied couples who were also at the hotel who told they also felt cheated write their experience in here, stay far far away. We will never ever come back.

This was my first time in Sint Maarten. The reviews led me to expect an exceptional experience. That is not what I received. The resort was at nest half occupied during my week here. The facilities are mostly in disrepair with many buildings not repaired from the hurricane. The staff was neither helpful nor friendly. A quick example, we asked for a late checkout rather than 11 AM. The answer, no and no exceptions.

Staff is incredible, especially Rossell, who kept us informed of every government pandemic rule and changes to ensure our smooth arrival, Keith and Richard on the food service staff and Rodney who does at least 4 different jobs. Also Mikiael who gave our friends a super view with the 2nd room and also is a slamming drummer in the live Reggae band! They are fast, always of good humor, and simply nice people. The food was also excellent, at their restaurant and the pool. This was our 8th visit in 10 yrs. Btw - food all over the island is world class, Big Fish, BZH right down the street, the Lolos and Ocean 82 in Grand Case. Sint Maarten remains our favorite place in the world.
