Jun 17, 2025Great place to stay on St Maarten for fun on the beach and a quiet relaxing stay afterwards. The best of both worlds.
My wife and myself had a great 2 week stay and we loved every moment of it. Every day we would start with a very good breakfast most off the menu and than a day at the beach. We were both very happy to return to the resort for shade on the deck and a dip in the pool. The resort is beautiful and the staff at the resort are always warm and welcoming all with the greatest of smiles. After 3 years in a row it is more than a vacation it is a trip to relax and see family again, if your family had a beautiful home on the best part of the island. Also the rooms are comfortable and the bed is just wow.

great stay at Esmeralda Resort
Very nice location. Easy to walk or drive to village for dinner or shopping and beaches. The pool outside our room was fabulous. The breakfast was excellent with such a nice wait staff. We had dinner at restaurant one night. It too was excellent

A relaxed, high-end experience!
The French restaurant on site is exquisite. The beach front is reached with just a two minute walk. The pools are nice. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. The hotel staff is very friendly and they work hard on making your stay memorable.

Exactly what our group was looking for. You can request to be in the same villa.
What a gem of a place. Rooms clean, pool was a little dated but did the trick at the end of the day. Breakfast daily was delicious and the service was fantastic. Lobster dinner was 100% worth it. Can walk to town for so many options to eat. I would stay again.

Nice place
Great location. Our room was very nice-- high ceilings and spacious. It was 3 rooms attached but you couldn't hear the other people. Our room had sliding doors to a nice patio with table/chair and a pool that the 3 rooms shared. Just felt very nice and serene. Continental breakfast was included with ours - had pastries, bread, yogurt, coffee, fruit, juice and you could add additional on for extra (we did two days) but just that was enough really. Easy walk to beach -- we sat in the chairs at one or the places that it's included through the hotel one day (no charge) and it was easy to get seats. Walked Orient beach - nice place to walk. The front desk people were very helpful in giving us ideas of beaches/towns to walk around, restaurants, etc. We had a snack at one of the places we could walk to (Roasty's) but otherwise the restaurants were expensive and we had a car.
