The initial reaction suggested that a great choice was made in selecting this property; check in was a breeze and the view from our room was amazing. It was not until a day in we realized that although it was stated that the linens and room would be changed/cleaned daily, we met an extremely dusty floor and our used towels. We called the front desk at least four times before new towels and wash cloths were made available, totally unacceptable in our opinion. We were later advised that an overall cleaning would be done after three days and to our surprise, the room still was not cleaned as indicated. On one occasion our toilet was unable to flush and the water was constantly running in the bowl. We alerted the front desk who told us that we could use the bathroom in the lobby (or some other strange area that I cannot recall). The toilet was never fixed until we left for the day and returned later that evening. It was an overall disappointment since the property has the potential to be so much better. I intend to visit St. Maarten again but sadly the Villas will not be an option.

I did like the room and the restaurant was okay. Room service was terrible. The house keeping did not clean the bathroom as should. In my reservation, i did say that I would get a VIP Welcome gift, which we do not received. We only receive two bottle of water.

The Villa's at Simpson Bay is a nice resort. The Room size is very nice and well laid out. The cleaning staff visits your Room every day to tidy it up. The beds are comfortable and very large in the Master Suite and there are also 2 Murphy Beds in the living room for the kids or extra guests. The kitchen is well supplied with everything that you would need for your stay. It has a Refrigerator, Microwave and Dishwasher. There are 4 pools on the property, I recommend the Big Pool on yop of the hill as the water is cooler. The other 3 pools are crowded and the water is like hot soup. On the Not So Good Side , the Air Conditioner System broke but it was repaired by the next day, Power Failures occured several times every day and thankfully the resort had a Backup Generator to continue supplying power. (The St Martin, Generator Plant deliberately Load Sheds electrical service causing Rolling Blackouts across the Island). Restaurants are pleantyfull and very reasonably priced. You must try (Sal and Pepe) Italian Restaurant as it was excellent and order the Linguine with Clams. Driving on the roads are terrible, the traffic signals are little to none and street signs are almost none existent also. so make sure your phone has the added out of country service so you can call and use either Google Maps or Waze to get around. I used Waze and it worked great. Thats my Honest Review I hope it helps you all out.
