Budget Hotels in Little Bay, Philipsburg

"I like the fact that there were security personnel all around the property which made it very safe."

"The property is beautiful. The beach is gorgeous, water crystal clear, blue. Our room was spacious and clean, nice views of the water. Easy to walk wherever you need to go, but golf cart type shuttles are eager to help. Eddie was the best, he took great care of us. Service at all of the restaurants was good. For the most part, the staff was friendly. Gizmos bar had good drinks, great views, some good entertainment. The infinity pool was nice and relaxing until all the iguanas showed up…lol, they were harmless though. Check in and check out was easy. We did all-inclusive and it was very worth it for us. We would love to return!"

"The property is in a key location. Knowing what kind of room/ apartment to look for is key. We were given rooms facing a court yard which were very inconvenient, and after speaking to the GM and paying extra, we were moved into rooms with ocean view. The property inside is walkable, beach is very rocky and unusable on one side and small and nice on the other side of the property. Getting there early is a must to get chairs and umbrellas. They do have extra chairs with smaller umbrellas which they open when it gets busy. Food at the Beach Bar is good but service is extremely slow. The ocean is beautiful though it get very deep within a few steps into the water. The staff is friendly and everyone speaks english. There was a smell on the first floor, which disappears as you go up. They provide beach towels, however the service is from 9 ( or 10) to 5 but the beach is open ( you can request chairs and umbrellas) until 6. If you return the dirty/wet towels in the bins that they have around, you will not be able to get fresh towels the next day. You need to carry the wet towels to your room and then bring them back in the morning and exchange them for clean ones which I find ridiculous. If you lose your key card or beach towel card, there is a $50 fee to replace. Since the property is in a key location, there are many activities available for the enthusiasts. Overall we enjoyed and having been there already and know what t ask for, we would go back"

"Sonesta Maho is wonderful. They have nice pools. The property is clean. The staff are friendly. They have premium liquors. The food was good. "

"This hotel is the best on the Dutch side of the island. It is in the heart of everything. Stores are outside the front door, the beach is outside the back door. The staff are exceptional, always made you feel welcome. The food and service in the restaurant are top notch. The hotel and rooms are very clean."

"I like that everyone made you feel at home."
