Thanks for the report and pics! We need to get back to Parrotville. Cool place! Is Ultimate Casino the one where the Gourmet Marche used to be, in Simpson Bay? Do they have table games??

Sammy--no, the Ultimate Casino is not Hollywood, unless it has changed to that in the past couple of months.

The Ultimate Casino IS in the building that used to be Grande Marche. Lal's and Dinghy Dock are also in the same building at opposite corners facing the lagoon. Larry, The landscape pics were taken from the end of Pearl Dr, outside of our Villas fences.
Next SXM visit -November 2023. Also January 2024.

Parking at Ultimate Casino was easy. 'Course it was only about 6:30pm when we parked.

There are perhaps twp levels for Topper and family. The rented Studio is on the bottom floor. There is no elevator that I have seen. They are building more rooms on the basement level but no where close to being ready. If you look on Air BnB site for Cleavage Villa you can see the layout. I'm not staying at OBBR this trip. Fact is, I'm getting ready to sell my week.

I'm not staying at OBBR this trip. Fact is, I'm getting ready to sell my week. Wow - this surprises me. If I may ask, is it because the MFs are getting too high? Or other reason? If you prefer to not answer, I understand.

Linda, I bought an original floating week at OBBR in 1997. Recently they have been selling "fixed" weeks. I didn't want to commit the money to upgrade nor did I want to lose my flexibility. It's becoming more difficult to use my "floating" week during "prime time". Maintenance fees have been very reasonable. Went up a little this past December for first time in a couple years. still under $900./year.
