I recently stayed at Divi Resort, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. One of the biggest issues we encountered was with housekeeping. Housekeeping didn’t start until 9 a.m. each day, and even then, it would take anywhere from 2 to 5 hours for someone to finally bring us towels. This delay was incredibly frustrating, especially since the cleanliness of our room left much to be desired. Our room’s floor was filthy upon arrival, and despite multiple requests to have it swept and mopped, it was never properly cleaned. It became clear why when housekeeping finally arrived—it was mostly older ladies who were responsible for maintaining the rooms. We felt bad for them, especially considering the resort section we stayed in had no elevators, forcing them to climb flights of stairs multiple times a day. This is not only unfair to the staff but also directly impacted the quality of service we received. I suspect that the heavy cleaning equipment, including the tools needed to mop the floors, was simply too much to carry up and down all those stairs. This isn’t the fault of the housekeeping staff; it’s an issue that the resort management needs to address immediately. The front desk seemed powerless to enforce anything, which was frustrating. A resort of this caliber should be ashamed of its lack of consideration for both guests and employees. On a positive note, the food at the resort was quite good, the staff at the restaurants and bars were amazing.

Most of the staff were extremely friendly. Seabreeze restaurant and Gizmos were amazing but the other restaurant options were lacking. Loved the pools and decks. Our room was Clean and suitable even though it was older. We were disappointed in the beach clean up, seaweed sat for days with little effort to clean it up. We also thought the concierge were a little pushy for the time share presentation.

We had a nice stay at Divi Little Bay Beach from 8/11-8/17. Pros- The beach and water was beautiful, multiple pools, food was above average, with numerous choices at each restaurant, quiet atmosphere, great for shelling, quick ride from airport, felt safe, easy to walk to everything. Cons- Service is slooooow. Being from NY, I know that traveling to the Caribbean usually requires an adjustment in expectations for speediness, but upon arrival there was only 1 person doing check-ins, which made it take over 30 minutes just to check-in and be told our room wasn't ready. Service at dinner is also slow. Prepare to be at the restaurants for up to 2 hours just to have an app, entree, and dessert. Some nights we didn't mind this and others it felt like our order was forgotten. Also, if you don't do the AI option, food is very expensive. Shops on the property close by 5/6 so theres no shopping after dinner. Overall we had a nice time. Ernesto had rolled by on Tuesday and caused waves and seaweed to wash ashore. I was disappointed to see it take multiple days for the grounds staff to clean the beach for guest use. It was clear people were getting frustrated. Some staff seem to work very hard while others are often seen sitting around, not doing much. If you are looking for a resort that has a lot to do, this isn't it though. This resort is really just a beautiful, quiet place to relax.

Some of the staff was fantastic. Others were down right rude. The resort itself has so much to offer for the price but staff is very important to us. Coming to a new island you’re looking for the friendly vibe and feeling welcomed. The head of entertainment at the resorts was top notch. Everyday he seemed genuine and was making sure everyone had a good time. His energy was contagious. Jay, Sandy and Pierre were wonderful. Some of the female bartenders at gizmos were rude and we were ignored when wanting service on more than one occasion. Many other guests said the same thing. During the tropical depression many workers asked if we needed anything. The resort is worth trying. Beach is beautiful and so is the property

I recently stayed at Divi Little Bay Beach Resort, and while there were aspects I thoroughly enjoyed, there were also significant areas for improvement. Pros: The location is spectacular, boasting one of the most beautiful beaches I've encountered. The cleanliness of the rooms also met my expectations, ensuring a comfortable stay. Cons: However, my experience was marred by frequent electricity outages, occurring approximately 5-6 times per day, which is quite disruptive. Moreover, the Wi-Fi connectivity was disappointingly unreliable. In today's digital age, consistent and fast internet is a necessity, not a luxury, especially for working professionals like myself who need to stay connected even while on vacation. Despite inquiring about a business center, the initial response from the staff directed us to look for alternatives in town. It was only later revealed that there was a "Hospitality Center" within the hotel that offered slightly better, yet still underwhelming, internet service. Summary: The natural beauty of the beach and the pleasant weather were highlights of my stay. Nonetheless, the issues with electricity and Wi-Fi, coupled with mixed responses from the staff, significantly detracted from the overall experience. It's crucial for Divi Little Bay Beach Resort to address these infrastructure and service shortcomings to truly match the expectations of its guests.

It’s a very beautiful beach resort with amazing views with everything you would need on resort grounds. There is taxi service available right at the entrance of the resort if you do choose to not rent a car. The staff were very welcoming and kind. There are also events that take place on the resort hosted by staff members so you’ll never be bored while having lunch or dinner. They even plan activities like walks that are at no charge to you. I will definitely be back here when I visit St. Maarten again!

We enjoyed that were several pools and restaurants on the property, plenty of places to lay by the pool or beach. We had actually been booked to stay at the BelAire for the week and there going to spend a night at the Divi on our last night. The BelAire's air conditioning went out and they put us up in the Divi for the week. The front desk was very accomodating to merge our reservation so that we didn't have to pack up the room for the last night and move to what we had originally reserved. The Brunch buffet that we being served was not great. The food was cold and just not great. The Couch and the bed in the One Bedroom Suite was so uncomfortably hard! We ended up sitting at the dining table when we were in the room. The wifi didn't work most of the week. Although we didn't go on vacation to be plugged in to the other parts of life, we did want the option to look up destinations, restaurants, etc and we weren't able to do that like we wanted to. It is one of the nicer places to stay on the island. I would stay there again.

I would say this is the most terrible experience I had as a frequent traveler. I went to Divi little Bay beach resort as this is an “an inclusive”. Although I paid the all inclusive price, I was stopped from ordering if I wanted an extra appetizer or extra entree even though it’s an “all inclusive”. This is disgusting and there are no buffets at all. I came to Saint Martin last year, a different resort and had a great time so I decided to come to same island, different resort but never again. Why am I being stopped for a service I paid for? This is truly disgusting and an evil way to control what I paid for. I didn’t steal, I straight up paid for it. Also I brought my 3 year old toddler who was also charged adult fee when I investigated further. The cherry on the cake- toddlers are difficult to deal with. My toddler didn’t want to eat his dinner so I figured I’ll take it to the room and feed him upstairs. The waitress ( older lady, heavyset, Dominican) started showing me the policy and saying she cannot give me a container. Then she started to let the other waiters know to not give me a tray for my toddler. This is truly disgusting. The restaurant was called seabreezs restaurant and bar. I complained to the manager who listened to me. I should be redeemed for my toddler or something. How are you charging an adult fee and then not giving his food to go in a container if he doesn’t want to eat at the restaurant. Someone help me because this is unfair and disgusting and unjust.
