Belair Beach Hotel

  • June 10, 2007
  • Rated 4 of 5 by agrose from Holly Springs, North Carolina
The accommodations were a little dated, but the rooms were huge, all oceanfront with a sliding glass window/door that was as wide as the entire room. Our room was huge! The kitchen was updated and clean. Little Bay shares a beach with one other hotel - the DIVI, so it is very private.

We rented a car because the island is so small that you can see it all. The Dutch side was more our speed. The french side was more expensive and more flashy. We prefer relaxed with excitement at night.

We went scuba diving with Dive Safari - they were wonderful. Snorkeling day booze cruise on the Swaliga which took us to Sandy Beach and Prickly Pear. Delicous food and snorkeling. If you enjoy alcohol, try the local alcohol--Rum Jumbie and

Beautiful island. Our airport experience wasn't the best. They only take cash once you go through customs and the airport wasn't air-conditioned. Our flight was delayed and we were starving because we didn't have cash for our return flight. If it was air-conditioned, we couldn't feel it.

Belair Beach Hotel

Best Things Nearby:
The beach, Phillipsburg, is less than a mile away. You can get great deals on watches, rings, and all types of jewelry.

Best Things About the Resort:
Oceanfront condos with, literally, steps to the beach

Resort Experience:
St Maarten/St. Martin is a combination Dutch/French island located on the leeward side of the Caribbean. Its unique culture and great beaches make it an unbelievable vacation spot. Visitors can do as little or as much as they wish. It is a very laid-back island with a large variety of locations to visit. The average temperature is in the mid-80s, and the water is almost equally as warm.

A trip to St. Maarten will bring you back refreshed and relaxed.

Belair Beach Hotel

  • July 27, 2004
  • Rated 4 of 5 by stimey from Dillon, South Carolina
Best Things Nearby:
Beach, just yards from your huge balcony! Restaurants and shopping are not too far in Philipsburg.

Best Things About the Resort:
All units (that I saw) were oceanfront with a wonderful balcony and view of the beach and ocean.

Resort Experience:
We loved this island. It's so different from all the others with it being half French and half Dutch. Most timeshares are on the Dutch side, and a trip to the other side is a must! The French restaurants are fabulous and the French waiters are actually friendly! There is scuba diving to the nearby island Saba.

Belair Beach Hotel

  • January 30, 2003
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Dattadude from Landenberg, Pennsylvania
Best Things Nearby:
Beach, right out the back door. You can sit on the balcony and watch the sunrise and sunset. Close enough to markets and shopping, but far enough from congestion. Little bar/pagoda on site as well as swimming pools.

Best Things About the Resort:
We went in October, so we basically owned the beach. At 6am, the water was 75 degrees, like taking a morning bath. Drinks at the little pagoda were reasonable, and folks were courteous. The rooms were well furnished and laid out rahther nice. The bedrooms were separated, providing real privacy. The balcony overlooked the ocean, and you had palm trees right outside. Parking was monitored by security.

Resort Experience:
Imagine waking up and walking out to the beach. The white sand is clean, and under the ocean, the sea-bottom sand looks peaceful as the undertow has created little ripples on the sand itself. Seashells dot the beach. When you ease into the water, it's as if you were stepping into a bathtub. Tranquillity is the word. Then you return to your air-conditioned room, unless the breeze is blowing--then it's open sliders and tropical air, warm and cool at the same time . . .
