St. Maarten Cruise Reviews

As we have been here a few times we just did our own thing and went to the beach. This day was the biggest number of cruise passengers in St Maarten on one day with 6 big ships in port so quite a sight. Still plenty of beach to go around! ...

Awesome time, Daughter was accepted to American University Medical School in St. Marteen 3 days before the cruise and it happened to the first port of call for us. we visited the university and then did the beach, shopping, and local eatery. it was a great time. ...

We did the Kim Sha beach excursion through Royal Caribbean which was nicely organized. The tour guide gave a very interesting description as we drove through the mountainous island on a bus. The beach itself was small and quiet with just our group. Chairs and umbrellas were provided. Drinks (grapefruit juice and rum) and lunch at the restaurant were included and the food was good. Some local women ...

St Maarten was a shopping day for us. Our 6th trip here. So wondering down Front and Back streets made for a great day. ...

Booked an excursion to Orient Beach. Had a nice time there for 3 1/2 hours. Had some rum punch and Mahi Mahi for lunch ...

We arrived early morning in the port of Philipsburg on the Dutch side of Island, but only had 4 hours to take an excursion of tour on your own, since all on board was Noon. While we have been to St. Martin a number of times before, for someone new to the island, it would be nice to have additional time to take an excursion and tour the town/shops. We chose an optional catamaran/beach ...

Love the French side of the island ...
