Divi Little Bay Beach & Racquet Club Reviews & Ratings

Resort of Distinction? I don't think so. Great beach, friendly pool bar, enjoyable restaurant, on site shops & facilities open 'til 7pm....BUT - units in dire need of repairs & modernizing. If you are on the third floor and it rains, you floor will be a swamp. The fix? Staff will bring up extra towels for the floor so you won't break your neck. Ants are bad - bring a can of Raid liquid ant killer, you will be glad you did. Mosquitoes are bad at night - no screens on the patio or its doors. They also have gotten into the unit air conditioning ducts, so you may want to shut the AC off at night - we did. We got bitten on our ankles by mystery bugs either in the unit (bed?) or on the beach and/or resort grounds. Even with all of the above, we have been twice - the sound of the surf at night from the balcony and swimming amongst the fish along the rocks just 25 feet out from the beach are worth the hassles. Don't forget to bring your swim mask!

My favorite place on the whole island. We have stayed here several times, in both the time share and the hotel side, and have never been disappointed. Beach on Little Bay is wonderful, views of both Little Bay & Great Bay beautiful. Snorkeling in Little Bay by the point is also one of the best on the island. Grounds are very well maintained, pools are wonderful, staff very helpful. Close enough the many great restaurants for convenience, or you can dine right at the resort.

Stayed there October 2001. Loved it and plan to return this year. There is no other place in St. Maarten that compares to its beauty. A quiet and relaxing place.

we stayed in the newer unt, and was thoroughly impressed. We plan to visit at least every other year. The view was spectacular and it was close to the city. The staff was also great!!

The grounds were beautiful and were well taken care of. It was close to Phillipsburg and had a nice pool and beach. However, we stayed in a studio apartment and were very dissatisfied. The room had a musty smell and was not very clean. The jacuzzi looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. There were ants throughout the kitchen and the bathroom. When we complained, we were told that there were no other units available. I would not stay there again!!

Beautiful location and tip of land with ocean views on each side. However, the management of the resort was not up to north american standards and many of the units need to be RAZED or at least entirely overhauled to be up to a BASIC standard. We complained about the state of the unit we were assigned (an old tired building with dingy furniture and broken appliances) and were transferred (via a sullen, angry staff member) to a beautiful new unit with which we were delighted. (Amazingly, the unit would likely have stayed empty as it was not assigned to anyone. If our stay had only been in the new unit we would have agreed with RCI's rating of Resort of International Distinction, but given our overall experience I don't think it rated the RID. With much better management and complete overhaul of the old units it would be worth visiting again, as the location is fabulous.

We have stayed here several times, and have never been disappointed. The view is spectacular in both directions, the beach on the Little Bay side and Phillipsburg and Great Bay with cruise ships on the other side. The people at the resort always treated us very well and were anxious to please.
