Anse Marcel Bell Beach Hotels

"Perfect location, friendly staff. The restaurant is delicious. Clean beaches with beautiful water. All restaurants are a quick 5 minute drive. Will always stay here when I come to back"

"It was a beautiful hotel and nice trip overall. It is very unique and clean. We enjoyed our stay and will return."

"Absolutely gorgeous view. Privacy was very limited due to the popularity of the beach club and the loungers right outside our window, however I was ok with it given the gorgeous view and the large windows. The neighbouring restaurant had loud club music late at night that I could hear, and was required to put AirPods in to drown out the noise. Perhaps ear plugs would be nice as an amenity. There wasn’t a coffee machine in the room (I didn’t realize only specific rooms offered a machine) so I had to wait for the restaurant to open and go get a cup each morning. I found the staff weren’t very warm. I was almost embarrassed feeling overly polite as I tried to get a little bit of warmth and friendliness from the staff. I almost felt like my general presence bothered them which didn’t make my stay very comfortable"

"I didnt ate breakfast there but the parking and everything else was lovely "

"Staff is very nice and beach is perhaps the best or one of the best in SXM. Inconsistencies with how staff can / cannot bill lunch to your room. Reception says yes. Some restaurant staff say yes. Some say no, you need a card or cash. Why? They can’t, for some reason, or don’t want to include tips when charging to the room. But, beach boys have no problem with this. Something they need to fix. Grounds in desperate need of basic TLC… dingy concrete that needs power washing. Lawn hasn’t been trimmed in weeks or months. Rooms are clean, but cracks in tile, mirrors abound. Staff is very friendly but don’t think of them as concierge level for dinner reservations. I could book a resort restaurant dinner online what they told me what full. No gym at all. Nice sized spa that was completely closed and they didn’t know when or why is was or wasn’t open. Parking gate is tricky and takes ages to open. Need to ask for coffee maker, then they gladly provide Nespresso w pods. Room cleaning is spotty. Some areas cleaned, straightened, some not. Very odd. No locking the patio sliders. Didn’t work. If you want a clean room with decent lunch spot where you can walk to a gorgeous, uncrowded beach, then this is it. Just don’t expect top service or amenities."

"Beautiful view and great pool. We had a wonderful time on our family vacation. "

"Wonderful location just steps away from the beach and the Main Street with all the attractions. The apartment was simple but perfect, with everything as shown in the listing. Brigitte was very responsive and helpful! "

"We had such a wonderful stay at The Forest with our baby Soleil on her very first trip to St. Maarten 🌿✨ The Forest is a beautiful boutique hotel, tucked away in the mountains on the quieter side of the island—perfect if you’re looking for peace and relaxation. Our room was comfortable and very spacious (honestly, more space than we needed since we love being out and exploring!), but it made our stay feel extra luxurious. One of our favourite parts was the private outdoor area. We spent time just sitting outside, enjoying the cool tradewinds and soaking in the hot tub—such a peaceful vibe. The food was also a highlight. Breakfast was always filling and delicious, and everything we had was well prepared and satisfying. Our host was incredibly pleasant and accommodating, and the staff were all so warm and friendly, which made the experience even better. We rented a vehicle, so getting around the island was easy despite being nestled in the hills. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and made such special memories for Soleil’s first trip. We would definitely return and highly recommend The Forest to anyone visiting St. Maarten 💚"

"It was magical. Viviane was an absolute angel. Warm-hearted and welcoming! Had our own private beach shared with another apartment. Minutes from everything! Would stay there again in a heartbeat!"
