Creator's Key Takeaways

The port was super chill, not crowded at all, which made it easy to grab a taxi for our whole group.

Once you step inside, you're suddenly greeted by this super cute beachfront hotel with an adorable pool area, beautiful cabanas, and stunning views of the water.

It's such a nice setup for a group. You get your own dedicated server, a welcome bottle of procco, a private bathroom with a shower, comfortable seating, and access to both the beach and the pool.

My lobster cocktail is just as amazing as it was before. I love it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take advantage of the port area for photos with your ship in the background.
Don't miss the cute St. Martin sign for photo ops before leaving the port area.
Budget extra for food and drinks beyond the welcome bottle at the cabana.
