Bird Island

This is probably the best hotel on island. We’ve stayed in different properties over the years, but ARC is the most genuine and Saipan-like. The staff are always ready to work for you and are super pleasant and professional. The food is totally decent and the bar is absolutely capable. We had Sunday brunch which was great plus they serve actual champagne for the free flow!! The rooms are comfortable if a wee dark. Everything is clean but perhaps a bit dated. But it’s Saipan! The location is ideal, far from the gritty Garapan but close enough to pop in for dinner and shopping. We love being so close to our fave beach. Wish the hotel will put a little more effort into the pool area, like more loungers and table’s with shade for dining. Bar service at the loungers? Oh, and clean those loungers!!! Beach view and access is blocked unnecessarily from pool area too. But the staff is amazing, and Saipan’s charns make everything all right!

I loved the location...away from the hustle and construction in Garapan. I just didnt understand why they had to play the music at the pool side so loud...

Will stay here again!
