Creator's Key Takeaways

So, we are in this Suzuki Jimmy. If y'all can see the deposit for this Suzuki, what the heck?

And they did not fill up the tank so I'm scared that we're going to run out of gas.

We're staying at an Airbnb. We got a rental car.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Arrive at the airport 3 hours early for international flights.
Check rental car terms for unexpected deposits.

YouTube Video Description

In this travel vlog, I’m taking you through my first two days on the island — starting with last-minute vacation prep and a very early travel day! I share what it was like flying into St. Maarten, the unexpected issues picking up our rental car, and getting stuck in island traffic before we finally made it to our Airbnb. You'll get a full Airbnb tour, dinner at Pineapple Pete’s, and a look at the stunning views right outside our Airbnb overlooking Great Bay Beach & cruise port the next morning! I also take you along to Anse Marcel Beach, a beautiful hidden gem on the French side of the island that’s more popular with locals than tourists. If you’re looking for a peaceful beach day away from the crowds, Anse Marcel is definitely worth the drive. It honestly was my favorite beach on the entire island! We wrapped up the first vlog with lunch and dessert at Sunset Café, with an amazing view of Grand Case Beach. If you’re planning a trip to St. Maarten or just love seeing new places, make sure to subscribe. This is only Part 1 — more beaches, food spots, and adventures are coming soon!
