Hotel berhampiran Cupecoy Bay Beach, Lowlands

We traded through RCI. RCI rated this a silver crown, so I disregarded the poor reviews I read, and figured they were just extra picky people. We added 3 nights to our trip by staying at Sapphire before checking into a week long trade at another place. All 4 of us (2 adults, and 2 teens) said the beds and pillows were the best we can remember having at a timeshare trade! The sleeper sofa was 2 separate mattresses, so that was a nice surprise. The room was very clean, but not well maintained unfortunately - it just needed simple things like fixing missing grout, caulking and painting, but since that hadn't been done it looks very run down. Also the air conditioning did not work well, so the room was barely cooler than outside (and that was before the daily 2 hour power outage). The room air conditioning did not dehumidify at all, so the tile floors were always wet. There is no ventilation in the bathroom so it was extra hot in there. There was no shower curtain, just a shower head over the open bathtub. Note, there is not an electrical outlet in the bathroom. You can trade pool towels at the front desk, but half the time we tried to do so during towel hours, they did not have clean towels to trade us. The beach area at Sapphire is really small, and only accessible at low tide. The pool water was always cloudy. We came to visit all the beaches, so we didn’t mind since we used our rental car to drive around the island. The back up generator only worked 1 of the 3 days we were there, so the 2 days it wasn’t working the elevators were not able to be used when the power went out for 2 hours each day - my kids were terrified of getting stuck in it when the power went out, but thankfully that never happened, but we did have a near miss when the power went out 5 minutes after we got off the elevator and the back up generator did not come on! I was surprised this was a silver crown. It's very run down looking, and just needs some basic maintenance to look much better.

Les avis positifs nous ont orientés vers cet hôtel pour notre séjour. Malheureusement comme tout à changé en deux ans! L'arrivée se fait par un chemin complètement défoncé, le check in commence par la présentation d'une facture (???) à régler fissa. Le cerbère de la réception et ses acolytes ne décrocheront pas un sourire, un bonjour ou un au revoir pendant 10 jours, même quand le réceptionniste de nuit m'a demandé une cigarette (le pompon sur la Garonne). Pour finir une nuit il n'y avait personne à la réception, ils ont fermé la porte principale et laissé l'accès à tout le monde par une porte coupe feu (intéressant pour la sécurité n'est ce pas?) L'ascenseur est en panne et le restera pendant encore 3 jours, il sera réparé et le lendemain de la réparation un client y reste coincé, pour finir il n'y aura plus d'éclairage à l'intérieur et une lampe de secours y sera installé jusqu'à la fin de notre séjour. Les clims du lobby fuient et on met des seaux dessous. Il y a beaucoup d'erreurs techniques dans cet hôtel: les escaliers sont bordés d'une grande plaque de fer forgé découpé qui n'est pas fermé, ce qui fait que lorsqu'il pleut les escaliers sont trempés et donc glissant. Dans les chambres ca sent le moisi (les filtres des clims ne sont donc pas nettoyés correctement), la clim de notre chambre a eu des fuites et comme elle était au dessus du lit...., dans la salle de bain le bac de douche n'a aucune inclination par conséquent prenez une douche et transformez votre salle de bain en piscine! le robinet de la salle de bain ne peut pas tourner (il est carré et touche le mur derrière), la VMC fait plus de bruit que les avions qui atterrissent à l'aéroport 4 kms plus loin. Il n'y a rien de prévu pour étendre les serviettes de plage, les placards sont déjà cassés (merci les clients peu respectueux), le service de chambre est fluctuant (un jour vous avez deux serviettes, le lendemain une seule, ou pas de tapis de sol, etc..). Le positif? La literie est parfaite ! Bref pour le peu de positif, le prix excessif par rapport aux prestations attendues fuyez!

Very disappointed in the amount of chairs and umbrellas on their very little beach

I only stay for one night . However I received Awesome customer service. I was allowed to get lunch before my official check in time that was 3pm. . The young lady at the baggage area was professional. After checking in and receiving my bottle water and champagne. I was told where to go but got a bit confused . Nonetheless i asked where the buffet was and was escorted to the buffet restaurant by a gentleman from the beach where you get your towels. When I got to the buffet a young man greeted me with a nice smile and offered me something to drink letting me know that the restaurant was closed and will be opening shortly. This to me was awesome customer service. I ask let him a few questions as it relates to Wi-Fi and he was able to tell me. My only issue was I checked you cannot gain access to Wi-Fi until you are assigned a room number. I checked in at 12 am and my room was going to be ready until 3pm I had no access to Wi-Fi and couldn’t call me family to let them know I was safe. There should be a way to gain Wi-Fi access before you are assigned a room. A one time access 30 minute access Other than that everything else was great . The workers at the Buffett was awesome especially a young man with braids that worked the morning and evening shift night of the 8/7/23.

We had an outstanding stay! The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. The accommodations were clean, comfortable and beyond expectations. The pool area was a true highlight! beautifully maintained with plenty of seating, great service and a relaxing atmosphere. We highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for a relaxing and top-notch experience. We wouldn't stay anywhere else in St. Martin. Everything you need is right there in Maho Beach, shopping, restaurants, beaches, and fun in the Sun!!
