SXM has been our family vacation for over 30 years, having first gone there is the mid 80s. Our son and daughter grew up there with our annual 2 or 3 week vacation in Dec/Jan. every year. They are adults now and we have added our granddaughter to the roster. Importantly, we have always tried to keep a week to just the 2 of us so that we could enjoy a quiet, peaceful Sint Maarten time for ourselves.
You will enjoy the "Friendly Island" as we have for such a long time and you will be back, just as we have been for so many years. This forum will help you with the essentials like car rentals, restaurants that match your desires and budget and other helpful information. You can attain valuable knowledge that will make your vacation more enjoyable. We love seeing new looks and information from folks like you that will benefit all of us since Sint Maarten/Saint Martin is a changing island for visitors like us.
