A new family owned hotel opened in Concordia, Hotel Fantastic with 40 rooms renting for around 70 euros a night.

Most of us want to be on the ocean but sometimes we need an extra night or two or some people want to be in SXM but don't need to be right on a beach or want a less expensive option so this news is good.

We've been to Concordia to several great restaurants. The area is nice. We discovered it because of the need for a hospital on one visit.
