Sonesta Maho Beach: Beautiful resort

The resort was great. A terrific hotel and staff. The room cleaning staff was thorough and friendly. The restaurants were conveniently located and served delicious food. I’m really hoping to return to this fine resort in the next couple of years!

Acoya Curacao Resort Villas and Spa: Comfortable stay

Acoya Hotel and Villas is nice. Since every person has a different opinion on what's nice let's break this down. Renting a car is a must. At least for a few days. We didn't mind taking the bus until we got our car. The grounds are not on the ocean. So, if you want to hear and see the beautiful waters of Curacao this place is not for you. BUT...you can walk there. Keep in mind its hot and its approximately a 20-to-30-minute walk to Mambo Beach and the Sea aquarium. Worked for us. Could use slig [... read more]ht updates but nothing serious. Standard room is quite small and no patio or terrace. Deluxe room was perfect for us and what we paid!!! Bed was perfect!! Everything is VERY well cared for and clean. Front desk staff is excellent.!!! Every employee on site is very nice. Pool area is also gorgeous and well cared for. Restaurants are nice but pricey. Every night they have this fun waterfall show and there was various enjoyable entertainment during the week. It is a bit of a strange set up in terms of where your deluxe room is. Basically, it is a room within a villa. Doors to other rooms are locked off. the only thing we felt was a little weird was having to walk past someone else's terrace to get to ours. No biggie everyone is nice. Note...we only had "neighbors" for a night and then no one else was in the villa so I can't comment on noise etc. This property is very central and easy to navigate around the island from here. The entrance is gated and very safe. We are very chill people and enjoyed our stay there. Hope this helps!!

Mangrove Beach Corendon Curacao: Lovely hotel great location

But…. So the hotel rooms are clean, well decorated and large. There are two parts to this hotel. the Rif - which just opened. And the original Corendon which is where we stayed. Both beaches are protected by a break wall - which makes swimming safe for families with relatively calm waters. Overall the beach at the original hotel is better. It’s larger than the Rif’s beach and here is the most important part - you don’t have one of the 2 daily 15 story cruise ships towering over you while you’re [... read more] laying on a lounger or swimming - and completely blocking the view! Don’t get me wrong - you can still see the ships from our beach too but at least it’s not directly in front of you (turning your ocean view into an ocean liner view.) You can still see most of the horizon from the main hotel. They come in 2 at a time Monday to Friday and stay from around 8am-6pm so you only get two days cruse ship free. . If you’re a pool person this may not bother you. We stayed in the part of the resort furthest from the ships so it was fine. The Ala carte restaurants were good - hubby said the bbq was fabulous. We didn’t try the sushi, but the Italian and seafood were also quite good. The buffet was redundant and lacklustre. And strangely had the pasta chef only cooking at lunch not dinner. Food quality was good. But it seemed only half the restaurant was set up to be used so choices were… like I said average and not abundant. Def not up to the standard or choices one might find at say a riu. The location is great 10 min walk to downtown, we made the trip a few times. The staff was okay - there was often a scramble at the buffet to find a clean table that’s been set up. Staff doesn’t serve you at all- they only clean up and put down place settings. There’s a drink and coffee station available with everything from coffee and juice to pop, wine and beer. The smoothie bar was fun and beach bar staff were nice but slow. The front desk staff was helpful, for the most part. I did order towels one day and they never showed up. The towel bar had an attendant but the one that was there the most was to say the least- disinterested. Though there was an older lady there one day who was super nice. The pool is lovely but I’m a beach girl so I barely used it. They only have one shop on the property and it’s pricy. I had to buy two T-shirts, a bathing suit, a brush and sunscreen (my luggage was delayed (thanks air Canada and Pearson.) and it was over $230 American. And they weren’t anything special. I paid less the next day when I went to Victoria secret in town and bought underwear and another t-shirt! They have a fun water park play area that’s part of the resort it’s up near the entrance - we didn’t use it but if our kids were there it would have been fun. My step mom was with us and she uses a walker and sometimes wheelchair and it was very wheelchair friendly. And they were kind enough to put her on the main floor close to the beach and amenities.. and were able to move us next to her the next day, Overall it’s a decent place. Maybe 3+ star to 4.

Dreams Curacao Resort Spa and Casino: Winter Vacation to Dreams Curacao

We were pleasantly surprised with our trip to Dreams Curacao in January 2024. The service the staff at the hotel provide was good. Our room was a bit dated but it was clean, everything worked and was well maintained. Clean beach towels were provided every morning at the pool, The resort is not to far from the airport maybe a 20 minute drive. Our room faced the ocean on the 5th floor with a magnificent view. At times it was noisy at night time but never past 11:30pm.

Acoya Curacao Resort Villas and Spa: Great Resort!

The resort was great for our trip. We rented a car to explore the island so mainly came back to the resort during the evening. The room was clean, comfy bed, nice sitting area outside. The shuttle to the beach, groceries, and downtown was convenient. Definitely book a massage at the spa, it is well worth it. The grounds were clean and well kept.

Sonesta Maho Beach: Strongly Recommend for Pool People

Most of the staff are very friendly and do their best to accommodate you. We first came here in 2022 and again in January 2024. We are beach people and learned on our most recent vacation, this year, that the beach had eroded since our last visit in 2022. Therefore our all-inclusive became not so much of an all inclusive as we spent most of our time on other beaches. On the bright side we divided our days between Mullet Bay and Anguilla beaches. This resort is very clean and I would strongl [... read more]y recommend it for pool people. If you are a beach person, you can still go to Maho Beach but you have to walk up past the other resorts, which is fine, but it is quite busy, especially if several cruise ships come in and be prepared to be sand blasted from the airplanes.

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Should You Upgrade?

I would first like to say we did make the best out of our circumstances. The location is beautiful and the waters are crystal clear. Just not impressed with the upgrade, amenities and many services. The Air Canada tour package ‘Beach Escape with Sea Turtles’ for $85 USD per person to see flamingos in the wild, swim with Greenback sea turtles, visit a couple of beautiful beaches and a seaside beach lunch was worth the money. It was more reasonable than the resort packages. We also went for an [... read more] introductory scuba dive through Ocean Encounters for $135 USD each. I use to dive but let my ticket lapse. My wife had never dove. It was a spectacular dive. We saw a coral reef rebuilding project and many varieties of sea life. Our dive instructor Leroy (from Netherlands) was excellent instructor. We visited Willemstraat via local bus for $4 USD each return fare ($2 USD one way). Willemstraat is an old colonial dutch town with colourful buildings, a bridge that pivots sideways, a free local ferry, shops and markets. Very colourful and artistic town. We never felt harrassed by anyone, especially in the town centre market. Below we have summarized (sort of) our Sunscape Curacao Resort experience. The resort overall is in serious need of maintenance and repairs. Below summarizes issues with different areas of the resort. What made much of our stay tolerable were some of the staff. Of whom I will mention by name later on. When we arrived in the Sun Club Office/Reception, along with several others, we had to wait over 1/2 an hour to be registered as Sun Club Members. General patrons were checked in at the main front desk within a very short period of time. In fact, after the general patrons were checked in, the staff from the main front desk came to assist the Sun Club Reception. We were told the resort was recently acquired by the Hyatt brand ad that they were going through a change. Our friends in room# 8213 had an ocean view with King bed, quite spacious with large balcony. Their bar had champagne, beverages and a fruit plate. Our room# 8216 was a partial ocean view, a tiny triangular balcony (with barely enough room to sit) and was stocked with 4 different cans of pop and 2 - 1/2 sized bottles of beer. Neither couple received robes. Robes were part of this package. Our room was quite dated and warn. Stains on the pillows and dresser counters not clean. Debris from past patrons still on balcony (burnt match sticks and crumbs). The bed was musty and smelt unclean. We politely complained to Timothy the night manager. He said our rooms were the same. I said that it may be considered that from his point of view but that we felt it was most definitely not. Timothy gave me a difficult time and insisted they were at 100% capacity. We’ve had yet to see this as appears sparse with patrons. He finally agreed to change our room the next day, around 5pm. I asked to see the room first before moving. The next day after 5:30pm, we received a new room on 3rd floor room# 8303 (from room# 8216). We lost a sofa, still had same same balcony size, a slightly better view. We went from an Eastern view to Western view. We benefitted by not having a morning sun glaring on us while eating breakfast. The room was cleaner. The bed wasn’t musty but sheets still had stains. We did receive 2 robes and gained a wall bottle opener. We still weren’t happy but decided that we didn’t want to waste our vacation on room changes. Our friends requested a room change a couple of days later from room# 8213. Our one friend developed a leg issue which left her struggling to get up and down stairs and walking long distances. The next day around 5:30pm, they were given a ground room# 6102 in non Sun Club member area. They still had access to the Sun Club privileges. Their room had a modern toilet that flushed without holding down the tank lever for 1-2 minutes. Such an embarrassing situation in the morning when it takes a long time to flush. Overall, their room was actually not much different than ours. We have no idea what the Sun Club room upgrades were. House Keeping Issues - Refilled in room coffee station only 3 times. Our daily mission while walking to an amenity was always to ask a housekeeper …when we can find one…for coffee, cream and sugar. - Bathmat was removed towards end of week and never replaced - One morning housekeeping didn’t wipe off or sanitize our in room dining table. The table was sticky from breakfast room service. Spilled juice etc. - Overall, daily housekeeping cleaning wasn’t fantastic. A few days we had sandy floors. Dining - The restaurants have varying policies on dress code. We were told by a security staff that what we were wearing was not appropriate for the ocean front grill on our first night. My wife was wearing a skirt and a tank top. When we returned, people wearing ‘Rock Band’ type T’s and casual shorts were allowed in. Even people were let into buffet with bathing suits on when the sign clearly stated ‘No Bathing Suits or Bare Feet’. Very confusing. - Wait times for restaurants are more than 90 min. Except for Hititsu Teppanyaki Bar you can’t make reservations, so you have to wait around the other restaurants after you place your name on a list. The buffet was also a bit of a wait. Apparently they are short staffed at some restaurants so wait times were often more than a couple of hours. - The food wasn’t great. Portions at A La Carte restaurants were quite small. Once waited 2+ hours to receive a full sized plate loaded with only 1/5 of it in salad and small entree. Quite frustrating. As to order more would again take quite awhile to receive. The Italian restaurant, Da Mario’s, Teppanyaki at Hititsu Teppanyaki and the buffet were the worst. - Da Mario’s pasta was Al Dente but most sauces were terrible and seafood over cooked and dry. - Teppanyaki at Hititsu was not Teppanyaki. It was more like a stir fry. Tiny pieces of chopped pork, beef and chicken served with stir fried rice, scrambled eggs and stir fried frozen vegetables is not Teppanyaki. Not flavourful. - For breakfast, fresh OJ at buffet and concentrate most other places including room service. Da Mario’s Italian restaurant’s A La Cart breakfast had instant (much like Tang or Sunny D). Oddly, Da Mario’s served ham & cheese crepe with chocolate sauce drizzled all over the plate. - Buffet always late to open. One morning we had to meet in the hotel lobby by 8am for an excursion and almost didn’t have food to eat. However, I met 2 older couples (Eastern European) who barged in at 7:20am (I was in the front of the line) and they turned to me and said “We’ve been here 4 weeks and they are suppose to be open at 7am so wait if you want to but we’re eating”…. Loved them! I followed them in. No issues. - Ice cream bar rarely had someone on duty. One time we waited over 20 minutes. Staff from the kitchen saw us, walked away, never to be served. Sun Club Member Issues Pool - Can’t swim in any pool after 6pm. Never experienced that before at a resort. We did out of defiance even after security verbally said to get out but never returned to enforce. We were quiet and respectful. - Also, tired of pool cleaning in Sun Club being done last. They start the general area around 5am….I know this because I was up to work out at that time…. Then they would clean ours last starting around 8:30-8:45am which lasts anywhere up to an hour. So my wife and others couldn’t do laps unless up early. Pool gets busy after 9am. Yes people could rise earlier but it’s a holiday. Our Sun Club pool area should be completed first. - There was supposed to be to be an adults only hot tub. We finally found it. It was not heated. Cool water like the pools. Our friend loves hot tubs but not able to enjoy it this vacation. Sun Club Bars - Premium Top shelf Alcohol is always limited, not top shelf (Jim Beam, Absolute, Dewars). We always joked that it’s Top Shelf because those bottles were literally on the top shelf. Ran out of Bailey's after 3 days. So 3 days of good morning coffee. Very limited alcohol selection. We have a SunClub bar by our pool and no Baileys or many other ‘Top Shelf’ alcohol that the lobby bar has. Always have to go to Lobby bar, which is a fair distance away, wait in line to get what we want. - The Sun Club bar for premium alcohol has a short window. Closes at 5pm. So if we take an excursion that day, we’re out of luck. We had to go all the way to the lobby bar to get ’Top Shelf’ access. Unlike the pool bar, the lobby bar you are required to wear a shirt. So that added more to our journey. - I may seem obsessed about this but No Baileys 4 days in a row! The last 4 days. Entertainment - Lounge Bar (by entertainment area near scuba centre) for dancing always closed. Suppose to be open 11pm-2pm. Apparently we heard from staff that since COVID, this lounge has been closed for 3 years and only recently updated on web site. When we booked it hadn’t been updated. Very misleading and disappointing. We love dancing. - Rock climbing wall was much smaller than web site shows. - No batting cage. We asked and everyone looked at us like confused. - No movies on the beach. Sun Club Customer Service - Calling SunClub Concierge is extremely challenging. - Tried calling for maintenance, gave up. Went to Sun Club office to request unclogging of bathroom sink & repair faucet handle as handle comes off. A couple of days later a maintenance man came by to unclog our bathroom sink. Faucet was never repaired. - None of the chairs throughout Sun Club area had seat cushions for patio/balcony chairs. Called to request balcony chair cushions. On the line for 15 minutes, only to hear they will pass the message on to house keeping. Never to receive them. Later that day while walking to another resort area, we spoke to housekeeping staff. We gave our room number with a request for 4 balcony chairs seat cushions. The cushions came a couple hours later, only to receive 2 cushions. We gave up and settled with the 2 seat cushions. - Stocking our room fridge was always an issue. We had it stocked twice in the entire stay. One of those times was when we arrived and the other occurred when the room service bar attendant was rolling past our suite. In the beginning of our trip I called daily for a few days. The phone would ring 15-20 minutes. We gave up. Even complained to Sun Club Office. They would write things down but nothing was done about it. We gave up. Room Service - Our first morning, the breakfast room service app was not usable. We could scroll through it and navigate but the actual ordering could not be preformed on the app. We ordered by calling. Took a long while to answer. However we did receive breakfast in 30 min. The poached eggs and toast were great. The fresh melon was as well but the addition of sliced ‘canned peaches and pears’ was very odd. Odd reflection of fruit in a tropical place. One day ordered 1 poached egg and received 3 poached eggs of which 1 had 1/2 an egg shell still attached. The last few day we were told 30-45 min. Waited 1 1/2 hrs and only received 1/2 our order. No cream & sugar for coffee. Dinners were delivered within an hour so no complaints . Sun Club Beach Front - Often sewer gas smells permeated while resting on beach. Very unpleasant. - No resort Wifi available on end of beach in Sun Club area. The day before we left we went to the Sun Club Office to arrange to have an extra hour late check out. They normally charge for this but Ariela arranged as a complimentary request. The next day Zaraya made sure our keys were coded for this request. There is a guest suite that is complimentary but this was more of a convenience for us as the shuttle pick up was 2pm. Ariela and Zaraya provided the best service for us in Sun Club Office. The last day when we were packed and waiting in front lobby for our shuttle to the airport, I met the hotel GM, Oswaldo. He proceeds to ask me how our stay was. By this point I had complained enough. So i didn’t get into details. I did say our stay was not pleasant but many of the staff were very nice. I mentioned the staff we had the best encounters with; - Zoraida - Sun Club Pool bar tender. Sweet woman who went out of her way to have the hotel purchase bitters for our Old Fashions. It took the hotel nearly the entire week to get it but on the last day we had it. So we enjoyed 2 Old Fashions before we left. We tipped her. - Quella - A floating bar tender. We had her at several bars and she was excellent. Great personality. We tipped her. Oswaldo went on to say that he was flown in from Cancun and that the resort has just been acquired by Hyatt and that there are many changes to be made. I told him that I use to in the hotel industry as a pastry chef and I understand much of what goes on. This was not impressive. He said for me to answer survey when sent. So this much of this will be copied and pasted in my various reviews. I know this is a long review. I had to condense it as best as I could. There are other details I could mention but this is enough to get a picture of our experience. Most people we spoke to at the resort had the same issues and other problems as well. Like I stated in the beginning, we made the best of a bad situation. Never arguing with anyone. Always trying to find resolution maturely. In no way do I blame Trip Central. Our agent Candice has always provided excellent service.

Sandals Royal Curacao: Good impression but room for improvement

Overall, the trip was good. My wife and I have been to dozens of all-inclusive resorts in every country imaginable, and I'll provide a quick primer of what was lacking relative to other top-end experiences. This isn't meant to be critical, but informative so that you know what you're going to get. There is not enough staff at the bars and restaurants. period! This is not to say that staff isn't pleasant and helpful, but you wait extended periods for anything. This is the result of the "no  [... read more]tipping policy" at Sandals, as there is little incentive to speed things up. This also applies to housecleaning and in-room amenity services. On two separate days our room was left without cleaning, and we were at the pool by 8am until 4pm every day. Our AC didn't work in the room, and they sent maintenance to our room 5 times to fix the issue without any solutions. It was disappointing that they didn't even offer to switch our room, as the nights were muggy. Food was good (especially dinners), but they lacked some basic items that other top-end resorts offer. I noticed this most at the breakfast buffet. Drinks were good, but they routinely ran out of premium alcohols, or you had to go to another area of the resort to get "your drink". This might seem picky/snobby, but it was annoying that I was the one travelling to get my drink of choice on vacation. I also noticed that they filled premium bottles with non-premium booze, thinking people wouldn't notice. Not the end of the world, but sketchy. Staff allows guests to reserve pool chairs at the crack of dawn (6am/7am) with towels. The issue with this type of behavior is that many people do not return until 11/noon, which is pretty disrespectful to those that want to enjoy the morning. Gym and spa were good, as was evening entertainment. Don't miss out on the food trucks, pizza and dessert snacks. The trip was decent.

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Ok

The resort was clean food was ok but the service was terrible. Had to wait for at least 5-10 minutes to be served with just a glass of water. Staff not at all pleasant. Some days, there was a shortage of plates, cutlery. I could not believe that maple syrup was watered down. I certainly would not recommend the resort to my family and friends

Sandals Royal Curacao: Amazing resort!

It was truly a vacation to remember. The food was the best we ever had at a resort. The staff were welcoming, polite, and so helpful. Did not meet one person that was having a bad day. The weather was perfect. A breeze and sunshine for 7 days. Not a drop of rain. The grounds were maintained daily. Only negative is if you cannot walk far, it is a big resort. Walking from one end to the other was quite a distance. The bakery made the best crepes. It was more than we expected. Can’t w [... read more]ait to go back!!

Acoya Curacao Resort Villas and Spa: Extremely Happy!

One of the best hotels we have stayed at! All staff were impeccably well dressed, multilingual, helpful and friendly! Location was very good well within walking distance to the town or the famous beach. Actually the entire islands ambiance was striking, with locals waving and greeting the busses as we passed by. I highly recommend both Curaçao and this hotel without any reservation. There was even free courtesy shuttles to the grocery stores, downtown and the beach so yes extremely happy with e [... read more]verything and fantastic food too! I will definitely go back!

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Don’t waste your money

I travel every year in a group. There is 8 of us. This is my first time writing a review. We’ve travelled many times and we don’t have high expectations but this resort was our worst experience. We arrived past check in and the rooms were not ready. When we did get our rooms, half of us got 2 double beds when we booked a king. Luckily they changed out our room for us. We had air conditioning however the other 3 rooms did not. It was hot and made sleeping difficult. We booked Sunclub. One of  [... read more]the perks is a private lounge. Just a heads up it’s a room in the lobby where you check in and out. Not a place you can really hang out in. The buffet is horrible. I’m not picky and always find something to eat but this by far was the worst. Not much selection, not great quality and repetitive. Room service was a great perk when you could actually get through to someone, but twice our group ordered and it was a no show. Restaurants are better but no reservations so you’ll need to wait. Wait times aren’t bad. After 10:00pm there’s no food. Everything is closed including service. There’s no 24 hour snack bar. The Sunclub pool was nice but they don’t monitor it so others from the resort would come use the pool and bar. The service by far is my biggest complaint. The lady at the pool bar was slow as a sloth. Literally. I know it’s hot but if you had 4 people in front of you expect to wait at least 20 minutes. She also ran out of ice and beer in the middle of the afternoon. Not a large selection of the premium drinks that were promised. If you like to swim early, save your towel until you have another one in hand. It was after 10am when we got towels. We spent a lot more time, and money off the resort. I highly recommend checking out Mambo beach which was a 5 minute walk, and Willemstad. We also booked our own driver to explore the island and got to see flamingos and swim with sea turtles. The island is beautiful. Highly recommend visiting but perhaps stay at a different resort with better service.

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Paying 5 star prices for 3 star resort.

Curacao is a beautiful island with much to see and much to enjoy. As everything needs to be exported in everything is expensive. ( Example 2L bottle.of pop was $5.50 CND) This hotel offers good service for a decent price keeping in mind the island cost of living is high. The a la cart restaurants: italian - chicken parmigiana was good. Japanese style: was very good. Blue water grill lunch fish tacos were quite good. Overall service: helpful, friendly yet slow and we are there to rela [... read more]x so just take a breath. Booked a sunclud oceanview King room and was given a double poolside view room. It took a night for them to move us as we were not given our room until 6pm although we checked in at 130pm. Example: requested bathrobes as was apart if the Sun club benefits rhey were never received. Sun club was worth the extra price for the room service and views. There is limited premium alcohol available on the resort. The Cafe coffee was delicious. Resort is quite dated and it is not very well maintained.(EXAMPLE AC was inconsistent and did not work well although it stated it was 18C in the room it was likely 25C.) Entertainment was varied and there was daily activities available if desired. Close by attraction include Mambo beach which was a close walk with great restaurant options. LOCAL transit was reliable and inexpensive to get downtown. (If possible use local currency as a Canadian this was best- we withdrew $from ATM... there is a 10USD charge plus your bank charge.) Sunsets were amazing even when cloudy. Beaches off resort were small, public and lounge chairs and umbrellas available for a low. cost. Beach on resort was small and man made. Snorkeling off most beaches including Cas aboes, Grope knip and Lagun was wonderful with plenty of fish and plenty of colorful coral. Piskado/Grandi (turtle beach)- was small and a fisherman's a beach that smells like fish but you can swim w turtles as they are fed daily by local fishermen. It rained almost every night/early morning so it was unusually humid so the sand fleas and mosquitoes after sunset were awful. During our 12 days on the island it rained a few times during the day for 5 or 10 minutes at a time was refreshing.

Curacao Marriott Beach Resort: Amazing resort

The property was very well maintained, clean and restaurants were efficient. Pools and beach were amazing our room was also very good. Staff very polite and at tentative, given pool towels made it easier and cleaner. The sunsets are absolutely stunning

Secrets St. Martin: Secrets St Martin

Very nice, chill resort, excellent food, beautiful breach, attentive and friendly staff. Alcohol selection was better than a lot of resorts we have been to. Only complaint was that the evening entertainment was lame.

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Bad resort

I wouldn’t recommend this vacation to anybody it was a vacation from hell .we had so many issue and was very disappointed considering that it was a Hyatt I wouldn’t send or recommend this to know one and I feel that Hyatt should take a wrecking ball to this resort

Zoetry Curacao Resort and Spa: Quite Resort

Beautiful and not crowded Hotel . Beautiful rooms and even the grounds layout and all the trees around it is very beautiful. There food is good but they need to have better service because they are very slow. The outdoors Restaurant has good food too. They only need to have more experience in the service. If they have that there's nothing to complain The Bars are good too.

Sunscape Curacao Resort: Amazing Resort!

The resort is very beautiful. The staff very friendly and always ready and willing to help in any way they could. Room service very efficient and fridge was stocked at all times. Maid service was very efficient. The food in every restaurant was very delicious . The beach very beautiful. We are definitely going back. We would most certainly recommend this Resort .

Sonesta Maho Beach: Sonesta Maho Resort review

Trip date Sept 28 to October 5th -2023 Overall a very good resort. Sunwing lost my bag so had no luggage for 4 days. Main Oasis pool was closed down for renovations on day #4 of our trip. The alternate pool provided for guests was to small to accommodate everyone at the resort, so timers were used at lounge chairs which seating to begin with was very limited due to minimal chairs. Unfortunately, due to the construction repairs on the grounds, the resort did not have a beautiful vacation vibe as [... read more] it would most presumably would have. It was disappointing that we were not notified of the pool closure prior to booking. The waves in the ocean due to hurricane Phillipe were very high and strong - so beach use during pool reconstruction was not an option for my elder husband with hip and shoulder issues. The Oasis main pool for this resort -we were told will not be open for possibly 2 more months- this will be determined depending on the extent of repairs required to fix once it is diagnosed. Some guests were very disappointed as they paid more for pool/ocean views without warning either of this construction on site. Food on resort was very good. Resort staff were terrific. Friendly island. Dealing with Sunwing was not a good experience at all. Lack of communication from Sunwing staff regarding lost luggage. I spent the first 4 days trying to track down my own luggage with very little assistance from Sunwing. Hotel, room and restaurant cleanliness was very good. I would recommend this hotel once pool renos are completed and avoid booking with Sunwing and rather go with WestJet..

Sonesta Maho Beach: Ok resort

Staff were very helpful and nice. Pool needs a lot of help. Facilities were no frills. Food was respectable but lacked variety. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasaasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssdddddddd
