Thanks you so much for this new remarkable video this week to shows these amazing beaches, restaurants, hotels, resorts, etc. in Saint Maarten March of 2024❤❤❤
Way more fun than Kona to me. I grew up going here and moved to Kona as a substitute, but it never lived up. The energy in the Caribbean is just more exciting to me (and it's not nearly as remote). I find the food to be way more interesting too.

FYI, the "t' is silent in Marigot, it is correctly pronounce Marigo. Hate to hear it said incorrectly, over and over. . Otherwise you did fairly well, thanks. There is so much about SXM that you missed. It is the Culinary Capitol of the Caribbean with over 300+ restaurants of all cuisines in its 37 square miles, with 37 beaches. . When at Orient beach, that is actually the Atlantic Ocean on that side of the island, not Caribbean Sea at that side of the island. The ferries are fine ,but can make many seasick with rough water crossings. There are many short 15 minute island hop flights to other islands that give you more time to tour them ,and less chance of getting seasick on a ferry and ruining your whole day. Cheers
Nicely done! There is much more to St Martin but you covered a lot in just one week! Happy Bay is the most deserted beach on St Martin but you have to hike to it from Friars Bay. Grand Case is a fun beach with some of the best cuisine in the Caribbean. The Rainforest Adventure zip line is crazy fun for a few hours. I took the 16 and 20 year boys and wife on a surprise adventure and it did not disappoint. We ferried over to Anguilla and flew into St Barth's (saw too many cool videos of the flight so had to splurge) as well during our trip last year while we stayed on St Martin in a villa overlooking Longue Bay Beach just over the french border just past Cupecoy. I 100% agree, Mullet Bay is the best best on St. Martin and Anguilla has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and that's why we're headed back there again this fall. Cheers and happy travels!
Las personas son muy buena la ciudad está muy limpia y te hacen buen recibimiento en el puerto de los cruceros son muy cencillo y los presios no están tan caros están asequible y las playas están limpias
Quick correction. Both Air France and KLM (along with most airlines) retired their 747 "Jumbo Jets" during the pandemic, so you will not be seeing those flying to Sint Maarten anymore (unless Lufthansa decides to fly there using one of theirs). The larger commercial jets you showed are not jumbo jets. They would be Boeing 737, 757, 777, 787s or Airbus A310, A320, A330 or A350s (obviously depending on the Airline in question).
Cool video👍👍 going to SXM next week for the 5th time. Never seen donkeys on the side of the road. Seen plenty of goats in the past. Where about is that on the island? 9:41
Isle de Sol as Yacht Crew was PROPER location to stay FAT TURTLE, SOGGY DOLLAR 🍸🍸🍸 beach bar at the 🛫 ... my FAVORITE place to stay docked Isle de Sol 💖💖💖
Great job on the video! Just a friendly suggestion for improvement: Marigot is pronounced "Mary-Go," not "MaryGot." Adding a bit of research on how words are pronounced could enhance your content even more. Keep up the good work!
@@IslandHopperTV We aren't really beach people but like the ocean. We would love to avoid crowds and noise. However it appears that wherever you go they just can't be avoided.....
So do you just stay in AirBnBs, hotels or resorts? I've been travelling and staying in Sandals resorts, but I feel you get to explore way more than I get to. I feel like at Sandals we can only do what we book through them.
Me gusto sint maaten en el viaje que di en mi crucero pero no me gusto San Juan Puerto Rico por que las personas son tan ceca y en la ciudad hay muchos indigentes claro había policía por donde quiera la seguridad es buena pero las personas tienen que cer más comunicativas sobre todo con el turista que vicita la isla por que esa es la bace de Puerto Rico el turismo y su historia

Yes and honestly the beaches are hard to beat on these islands
The water is so much nice to swim in too- no giant swells and lava rock to worry about.@@IslandHopperTV

Awesome island tour.
We want to go back and this video made me think about SM again. LIKE 54. 👍👍👍
Thank you I love it
Plane spotting is the best in my opinion
😍
😂😂 and the steep mountains 10:02 with the 18 wheel trucks are an adrenaline rush driving daily 😅
Paradise 😂😂😂❤🙏🙏🙏

Right?!? I love St. Maarten and when someone butchers the name or any place in St. Maarten its is just annoying!! 🤭
Understandable now I know thank you

13:00 The island of Hispaniola also has that dynamic ; it's shared by two countries , Haiti and Dominican Republic.
Yes but here you cross into a new country without any immigration
The difference is that each side, though different in ownership, cooperate and are very friendly and it’s no trouble to cross. I love St Martin!
Si uno quiere ir a residenciarse en esa isla me parece muy bello
Praise the Lord😢😢😢😢😢😢
❤❤❤❤❤
Great to see you at some lower elevation 🎉
Lower elevations and more sand 😅

"Marigot" is typically pronounced as "MAH-ree-go" or "MAR-ee-go" with emphasis on the first syllable.

That was out by the east side by tintamarie
You usually will find the donkeys in Orient Bay
Yes, indeed we seen the donkeys a couple time in Orient bay. Was a pleasant surprise.

Nice video! The hotel you stayed is noisy because being closed to the airport?
In the day time yes it’s true but at night no
hi. where did you go to see the animals?
Great job on the video! Just a friendly suggestion for improvement: Marigot is pronounced "Mary-Go," not "MaryGot." Adding a bit of research on how words are pronounced could enhance your content even more. Keep up the good work!
I was pronouncing it marigo and the car rental lady who lives there told that it was pronounced MarigoT 🤔
How would you compare St. Maarten to Barbados for a relaxing visit for a long term visit even away from cruise ship crowds?
They are both similar actually. In my opinion both are built up, a bit over crowded, have traffic jams. But can find some nice beaches around both
@@IslandHopperTV We aren't really beach people but like the ocean. We would love to avoid crowds and noise. However it appears that wherever you go they just can't be avoided.....
What hotel did you stay in for the beautiful sunset?
Royal Islander La Plage
So do you just stay in AirBnBs, hotels or resorts? I've been travelling and staying in Sandals resorts, but I feel you get to explore way more than I get to. I feel like at Sandals we can only do what we book through them.
I stay at Hilton, Marriott, IHG or Hyatt hotels over 90 percent of the time
what company did you rent your car from?

One day all will become Christian😢😢😢❤❤❤
