This time two weeks from now we will be back in St. Martin for our first trip in 5 years - a number of issues have kept us away, not just Irma - so this is a long overdue trip
We prefer to rent apartments close to Orient Village, but I did not plan early enough this year, so could not get what and where we wanted. As a backup, we booked at Esmeralda. We had been in contact with the folks at Island Escapes and Magali told us that she had an apartment that might be ready in time - but she could not promise - she said she would let us know if it was. I never expected to hear from them again.
Well a couple of days ago, she contacted us - the apartment is ready and do we still want it ? We said of course - and since the Esmeralda has a lenient cancellation policy for all but holiday reservations, we were able to change to be in our preferred location - right behind Wai Plage!
Will definitely used island escapes again! probably every time we come to SXM!
