Oyster Bay Beach Resort
10/10 Excellent
"The resort is an older property but it is VERY well maintained. The staff is top-notch and so accommodating. The restaurants offered an array of menu items and the market and gift shop were stocked nicely as well. My favorite part of my stay was enjoying all the activities that they plan each day! You could always choose to lounge around the beautiful pool area or partake in a game of bingo, do a little dancing or just relax in your room/suite and enjoy the beautiful views. "
Sonesta Ocean Point All Inclusive, Adults Only Resort
10/10 Excellent
"Sonesta Ocean Point Resort in St. Maarten is an upscale, adults-only, all-inclusive retreat that offers stunning oceanfront views, stylish accommodations, and a tranquil atmosphere perfect for couples seeking relaxation. Perched above Maho Bay and just steps from the famous Maho Beach, the resort provides an unbeatable location where guests can enjoy both serenity and the excitement of watching planes land nearby. The spacious suites many featuring private terraces or swim out access are modern, comfortable, and designed for a luxurious stay. Guests particularly praise the elegant infinity pools, high-quality dining options such as the Mediterranean-inspired Azul restaurant, and the overall beauty of the property.
Service at Sonesta Ocean Point is frequently highlighted for its friendliness and attention to detail, though some visitors note inconsistency, with occasional slow restaurant service or missed requests during busy periods. Similarly, while the rooms are generally well appointed, a few reviewers have mentioned minor maintenance issues such as water leakage from showers or soft beds. The resort’s proximity to the airport can result in some aircraft noise, which some guests find entertaining while others find disruptive. Pool and beach service can also vary, with some guests wishing for more attentive drink and towel service compared to other luxury all-inclusive resorts.
Overall, Sonesta Ocean Point Resort delivers a memorable Caribbean experience."
