The Ocean point hotel was nice. It’s an older resort the rooms and especially the bathrooms could use a refresher, of paint. The restaurants were just ok Azul was one of our favourites. There were several pools but some are shared with the Maho hotel which is a family resort, which are also shared with some restaurants. On the Adult only side there was only 1 pool with a swim up bar. The other issue we found was the washrooms were far away from the pools. The views of the ocean and mountains were amazing. This is not a 5 star resort as listed it’s more like a 3 star. All and all we had a good time and the outside area around the resort is very safe and the shopping was good.

Everything was amazing about this resort. The food was delicious, the grounds and facilities were immaculate and the views were stunning. The best thing about this resort was the people. They were consistently friendly, helpful and informative. Trip Central ( Candice Anger) was very helpful and knowledgeable in booking this resort and our preferred room.

This resort is lovely, clean and nice. Views are spectacular. Definitely not a 5* hotel and not new so be aware that your expectations of 5* luxury will not be met. Bathroom is very small, very low water pressure, not good for 2 people; somewhat dingy. However, you are paying for the amazing views and the incomparable beach. Food was excellent everywhere we went, service was great and we always felt safe. We had a swim up room facing the beach. The pool filters don't come on until the morning so look closely at the water if you plan to enter the swim up first thing - it was gross and dirty from overnight swimmers. Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays there is a bbq by the ocean facing pool - the wings are INCREDIBLE and perhaps the best thing we ate!!! A WORD OF CAUTION: while we were on the plane coming back, the hotel attempted to charge almost $5,000.00 to my credit card. WHY? This left a very bad taste in my mouth and it was definitely not a coincidence that this happened while we were on the plane.

Just returned from a wonderful week at Ocean Point. The resort is beautiful and well maintained. Our room was spacious, comfortable and had a great ocean view. The food was very good. Portifino is a gem built into the rock with a waterfall and such a great idea that Azul changes their lunch and dinner menus every day. Such great views from all the restaurants and the Sunset Lounge. We found the staff very pleasant and engaging, especially the team working at Azul (Sidia, Emmanuel’s, Danica, Jennifer, Rihanna, Scheinder and Lina). Our Housekeeper Faneza was lovely and a shout out to whoever filed our ice bucket on many occasion - so thoughtful. We never had to fight for lounge chairs at any of the pools. Loved the Edge Pool. If you are a beach enthusiast- the beach is not overly expansive however the resort has done a good job of providing a beach like feel just above the beach access. If you are a plane enthusiast - this is the place for you! But if you aren’t I found that after the first few hours the noise didn’t interfere. Great sound proofing in the rooms. Earliest planes leave at 7 (smaller planes) and last plane arrives no later than 8-830. I really enjoyed the quiet, tropical, peaceful atmosphere.

We enjoyed our stay at Sonesta Ocean Point Resort. Having access to adult only building, bars, swimming pools and restaurants was top notch. The property was well maintained, and well staffed. Meals at Azul Blue Fin and the Italian restaurant were well portioned high quality and visually appealing. Staff throughout the resort were helpful and courteous

Just got back from a week here. Cannot complain one bit. Food, service, staff and resort is wonderful. I would recommend it to anyone. Was nice you have access to Maho Beach resort as well but we stayed mostly on Ocean Point side as it is adults only. Ms. Sheryl at the pool point bar is a gem! We’ll be back for sure! Until next time

#1 is the service, smiles and thank you go a long way with the staff. #2 location, minutes from airport, right in town #3 food is similar to 5 star resorts Only downfall is the airport, we got very lucky going through but other travellers waited for over 2.5 hours (mostly issues with luggage, to many planes for the what they can handle)

This is a great well maintained, top notch resort. The staff are exceptional particularly Cheryl (at the Point Pool) who is like a warm hug, Diane (a staff manager who oversees service in the restaurants and pools) who really encourages excellence from her staff in such a pleasant and professional manner. Dining is great especially at Azul. Portofino and Blue Fin would benefit from a more varied menu. Having said that, the staff and kitchen were open to accommodating requests. The drawback is the lack of a beach. Although picturesque, the shore does not lend itself to a beach. The daily casual entertainment poolside was great! Overall, this is a great resort if not do pricey.

This resort is certainly a 5 star resort. Great location and if you enjoy watching planes you will love this place. The good thing is the planes do not fly during the night. We had a room on the fourth floor and what a view. Food was excellent and so was the service. Lots of gluten free options. Nice that you do not require reservations and we never had to wait. Lots of bar options with the lobby one being our favourite. Good entertainment and the afternoon entertainment you can listen to from your room. Good size rooms and great housekeeping. Resort is well maintained and friendly staff. Resort is safe and you can wander out of the resort with no fear. We had daily walks out of the resort. Would certainly entertain coming back

This resort was classy, clean and the food was delicious. We had the pleasure of having world class cuisine at Chef's night. The staff was friendly and the tour guides were knowledgable and fun. Relaxing scenery and gorgeous sunsets everyday.

This was our second visit to Sonesta Ocean Point and love this place. We had a swim out suite located next to the "beach" area and it was amazing, we never had to leave our room. The resort is very quiet, great food at Azul and you couldn't ask for a better view. The staff were very friendly and made every attempt to please their guests.

Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay at the Sonesta Ocean Point in St. Maarten. Stories about being 'under construction' from other reviews were overblown. Proximity to the airport isn't for everyone...if you're looking for a completely quiet place this probably isn't the right choice. Food was great, staff were good, weather was incredible!

The views from the pool are picturesque. Watched the planes come in all day long in amazement. We had a swim out which was a bonus. Since the rooms are new, they were modern and very clean. The staff was friendly. Believe that this hotel will be great when all is completed which will probably not be for months.
