Absolutely loved this place. Mary Ellen is wonderful to work with even provided guidance for using cell service on island, dining & activity recommendations. Secure parking, secure private beach - waters very calm on this beach, unit near end of building, private porch 10 steps from beach, beach towels included, pool, volleyball, restaurant & bar, shopping on site, grocery & restaurants very nearby, friendly staff. Not far from airport, but you never hear airplanes. Tip: Because you are renting from owner (not the resort), you are responsible for washing your own bath towels. However, free laundry is very near and just to the right. Did not use washer/dryer in unit. Fabulous, restful stay.

The room was perfect - views opening to the beach, with private porch. Two large bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen, and within the Hilton Royal palm with a gorgeous beach, free towels and tiki hut umbrellas, and access the the hotel's pool, swimup bar, restaurant, and fitness center. Close to airport (but not too close), close to restaurants and other beaches, not far from casinos and a short drive to the main town of Philipsburg.

We have stayed at this unit a few times over the years and it never disappoints. Being a 1st floor unit, you literally walk to the beach/pool/bar/gym in seconds. The owner is wonderful and the place is always clean. When you know you will have great accommodations, the vacation is even better!

From the moment we checked in we knew that we had booked the right place. The Unit was exactly as described. Location was great. Right on the beach. Clean and well stocked. Van was a pleasure to work with. Very quick to respond at all times. We are in the process of rebooking now for another stay. We can not wait to return.

Location is what it’s all about. Wonderful condo, amazing beach, and great variety of nearby restaurants. Van is a super host; very responsive and accomodating. The condo has everything you need for an enjoyable beach vacation. We’ve stayed at RP many times and will keep coming back. This was our first time back since 2017–COVID and the hurricane damage kept us away for a while. The only negatives ((out of host’s control) were: (1) check-in process—as usual, we could not get into our room until after 4:00 pm. It was almost 5 pm when we finally gained access. So, be prepared to wait. (2) a beach bar opened next door, which played loud music from ~10 am onward. The bass was thumping all day and until very late at night. Good news, though, is that we were told Hilton bought the property. So, the bar should be shutting down end of April. All in all, another fantastic stay in SXM.

We had an awesome stay. Property was exactly as represented and I’m happy to give one more 5-star rating! Proximity to beach was perfect. Everything we needed was on hand and questions to Van were replied to promptly. Everyone from front desk to bar staff were kind and friendly and location was centrally located and safe. We’ve already been telling folks to look this one up if they make plans for a trip to St Marten. Thanks so much!

Other than the wait to get checked into our condo, we had a great time. We have stayed at Van’s condo before so we knew what to expect. The renovation done a few years ago was very nice. Being on the ground floor and a patio a few steps (3) from the beach was so nice. We could easily run back to the condo for anything we needed. Hilton does a great job maintaining the beach and surrounding area. We also enjoyed the security provided. The pool and bar were fun and we enjoyed many a happy hour during our stay. We had a concern our first night because the music next door at a neighboring restaurant was so loud, it was almost unbearable and it went way past their closing time. But that was the only time and it may have been a special event. We particularly liked watching the mega yachts going into and out of the marina each day. I highly recommend this condo for a relaxing time, convenient to great restaurants walking distance from your doorstep ( literally across the street). The secure parking was wonderful and we never had to worry about a place to park. My wife and I would definitely rent from Van again but hopefully for a longer period. The week went way too fast.

Wonderful stay with my husband, 4-year old, and in-laws. The suite is large and comfortable and the beach is only steps away from the patio door! The kitchen was fully-stocked with the essential cooking utensils, as well as some food, laundry detergent, and beach things for the kid. There was a small convenience store just down the hall for anything you may have forgotten or couldn’t bring on the plane. Loved the pool with a swim-up bar, and I appreciated the large shallow section for our 4-yr old.
The only minor downfall was not Von’s fault. We arrived at about 5:30pm when checkin time was 4pm. The room was not ready and we had to wait around a while in the lobby until the room was cleaned. Plus they only clean the room once every 8th day unless you pay for it sooner and there was no broom in the room. Being on the beachfront, it’s hard to keep sand off the floor that long, esp. with a 4-year old running around. Otherwise the stay there was fantastic, the staff was super friendly, and Von’s place was very accommodating. Hotel was in an excellent location, and it was convenient to get just about anywhere. Lots of restaurants nearby and close to the airport.

Fantastic Unit for 5 adults. Been coming to St. Maarten for 20 years and with the new renovations to this property, it is one of the best places to stay! Everyone we met were very accommodating, friendly and fun to be around.

The condo is updated, very clean and in good condition. There are two bedrooms, each with a bathroom and king size bed. There is a small patio that walks right out to the beach. This condo is in the Hilton Royal Palm Resort which includes an on-site restaurant, swim up pool bar, gift shop and a small market.
Plenty of bars, restaurants and shops within walking distance, but renting a car and checking out other beaches on the island was a great option for us. Mullet Bay Beach is a 15-minute drive and Orient Beach on the French side was just about 30 minutes away.
The owner replies quickly to questions and was very helpful with recommendations. Definitely a good option to stay in Sint Martin.

We had an amazing week. We had 4 adults and had the best time ever. Such an amazing location. We had a car, but feel like it was not needed. So many amazing great places to eat close by and able to walk to our catamaran excursion. Hoping to book again.
Beach was right outside our door.

The view is spectacular! The beach is lovely with no waves, our suite was newly renovated and clean, close to groceries and restaurants (across the street), tons of family fun (do the Lambada day snorkel trip for sure) nearby. Had the best time!

We have just completed a wonderful stay at Van’s 2 Bedroom unit at the Royal Palm in Simpson Bay, St Maarten. We travel to St. Maarten on a regular basis, as we have a timeshare at another property on the island, so we rented this to try something different in another location from our other property. We were not disappointed in the least. The location of the resort is excellent, and no car is required to access all of the major attractions in the area. We were able to walk to any shops, restaurants within the area without issue. There is also a wonderful local fish market across the bridge to take advantage of. The unit is well appointed, and everything is as shown in the photos from the listing, very comfortable. The unit is located on the ground floor, and accessible without any stairs, which is very handy as my wife is in a wheelchair. Kitchen facilities were very handy, as we ate most meals in the unit. Wifi is also good quality, so easy to stay connected if necessary. The staff at the resort were excellent and very knowledgeable, and willing to help wherever necessary. Sunset Views are spectacular over the water, and some of the best that we have seen. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to come to the island, you will deeply enjoy it. We look forward to possibly renting this unit again in the future if it is available. Thanks again Van for a wonderful week!

Couldn't ask for a better location...just steps from the beach. Check in process was easy but unit was not ready when we arrived @ 4. We had to wait until around 5:30 because housecleaning was not done.
The thermostat to the unit was not working properly so the AC was good and bad with uncomfortably hot moments. After 2 days the resort finally got then problem fixed and we had no problems after.
A big heads up that the resort only allows 3 devices TOTAL on the internet. Despite me calling the resort before booking our stay and getting assurances that 4 people could be on wifi it did not happen. This was a big problem with our kids/students needing to get online to take tests and such for school. My problem is that the resort was not honest and it created problems. They said we could pay an extra $10 per day for 3 more devices.
The pool bar and restaurant were great and recommend both. Directly next to the resort is another bar/restaurant with food and drinks as well that shares the same beach.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay despite the hiccups. I would definitely stay here again. Rooms were a great size and layout was fabulous. Also had grills just outside the room that were cleaned every night by the hotel. Kitchen also had every thing you would need to stay in and cook.
One last thing is that you can exchange dirty room and beach towels with the resort and ask for more toiletries as needed.
Would definitely recommend.

First I want to share how responsive Van (property owner) was prior to and during our stay. Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short but the location and the unit itself is top notch. It is nice to be so close to restaurants etc and it is nice to walk out and have the beach right there.
They have very nice beach chairs and palapa type area so that you can get shade if you wish. There is a nice swim up bar.
The beach has some seashells so the sand is not the very soft sand you find other places and there are alot of sailboats right off shore so the water was clear but not as clear as other places in my opinion. At least there was no seaweed at all. The beach is fairly shallow so easy for smaller kids or non swimmers.
The unit is a 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom which has been renovated so it is well appointed. There is a gas grill close to the unit which is convenient. The bbq utensils you need to get from the front desk. It may be a way to keep track of who is using it but frankly it would be more convenient to have some in the room.
There are 2 king size beds one in each bedroom. The master has a great view of the beach. The living room has a great view also with floor to ceiling windows. The bathrooms both have walk in showers which are very nice. Each bathroom has one sink but plenty of counter space.
There are curtains that block out the sun so it is nice and dark in the morning if you wish.
There is a dishwasher, full fridge and washer and dryer in the unit. We used the dryer for swimsuits etc.
The patio is small with a round table and 4 chairs but not much more room than that but you have the beach right there so no need for anything else.
There were no stem wine glasses but there were stemless ones. Could maybe use a few more utensils but in general you have everything that you need.
The unit is a main floor unit towards the end of the complex near Roxxy Beach. I love Roxxy and I was sad that my husband was sick so we were not able to enjoy it.
Having said that over the weekend there is club music next door. It can be a bit loud but Saturday night it lasted only until 11 am. There was a festival on the beach on Sunday (not from Roxxy) and that lasted until 1 am. I personally did not mind but others may.
We left a few things in the pantry area as others before us had also done the same which is nice for others to share such as some beer and liquor etc.
Overall a great unit and would stay again.

We really enjoyed staying at Van’s unit during our family vacation for our son’s birthday! The view of the beach makes you say “wow!” as soon as you walk through the front door. We loved being able to walk straight out to the beach for a swim in the bay or to sit quietly and read a book. The unit is only a short distance from the pool area that has a bar/restaurant. Great food and happy hour specials!
The property is close to some of our favorite hangouts (Mullet Bay and Maho Beach) and walking distance to great restaurants (Skip Jacks, Astra, Captain’s Rib Shack, Yacht Club, and Cafe Atlantico). Although the resort has everything you need if you prefer to hang out there the entire trip.
The unit was clean, the beds were comfortable, and had everything we needed for our trip. We would definitely consider staying at this property again!

Have stayed at Royal Palm many times before, still one of the best places to stay in St Maarten, some new changes to the area. Only drawback, was the very LOUD music from new establishment "nowhere special" across street from Royal Palm, as the music continued to midnight...miss Lee's

It was our first time back since Irma as well as our first time at Royal Palm. We love Simpson Bay as you can walk to many great bars/restaurants. The property was amazing, the room was immaculate and in perfect location, first floor walk out. The host was great to work with and we would absolutely return.

The condo unit itself is beautiful, clean, up to date and spacious. Better yet, it opens right to the beach. It is exactly as advertised. No surprises. Just "How Lucky Are We?" And also very affordable!! The Royal Palm Resort is also as advertised. Beautiful resort, clean, safe, many amenities. Overall, I really enjoy staying in this area in St. Maarten's. Walking distance to many places we like to frequent. Van was easy to work with as well! Honestly! You cannot go wrong with this property if you are looking for a relaxing vacation on the friendly island!
