We just got back from a weeks vacation at la Terrasse. Love how close it is to the airport, right around the corner. We rented a car from Thrifty and at the airport at guy from the Thrifty company took everyone who rented a vehicle in a shuttle to the Thrifty car rental building. Very efficiant and nice. Car was...

We were delighted that we were able to exchange our timeshare week to this Gold Crown resort. We were also a bit guarded considering its proximity to the airport. This was a much facility and better experience compared to another timeshare on the Dutch side. The resort is not 5 star. It's not brand new but not dilapidated either. It's... More

Traveled to St Maarten on July 30th through August 6, 2011! We stayed in a 2 bedroom at La Tarrasse which was clean but old and in need of an update. The staff was friendly and helpful when asked. The room was quiet once you close the sliding doors and you would not know you where 150 feet from the... More

I didn't know what to expect as the reviews are pretty old and vary quite a bit. Also the links on the Royal Islander website did not work, I sent them an email but got no response. It would have been nice to see pictures and room specs- but went there with very little information, prepared for an "average" resort... More

We enjoyed our two weeks at this resort. The staff was friendly and helpful, and our condo was well appointed and very clean. The pool was nice, but the fact that kids were allowed to bring in multiple floats and toys made it very crowded at times. Additionally, many of the guests smoked cigars, very unpleasant for us non-smokers. I... More

There were 6 in our party - my husband and me, our 2 kids, and my parents. We stayed in a 2 BR and the kids stayed on the pull-out couch - we had plenty of space. The kitchen was well appointed - except for an oven. We had a balcony view of the airport. I was apprehensive about staying... More

My husband and I stayed at the Royal Islander Club La Plage for a week and we had a wonderful time. The manager and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Also, we enjoyed their restaurant recommendations. We were upgraded to a two bedroom unit and the apartment was very spacious and comfortable. All in all, we had a... More

We went to La Terrasse with some reservations, given negative reviews we read about the place. Upon arrival we found friendly front desk personnel, who provided us with a speedy check in. Our two bedroom unit was clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Other reviews complained about the airport being so close (it's literally right across the road from the... More

We stayed at La Terrasse Oct 31 through Nov 7. We had read the reviews and since our timeshare (Caravanserai) was not ready for the fourth year in a row. Caravanserai provided us access to La Terrasse. I traveled with my wife and seven other family members, we went there not expecting plush settings so we were not overly optimistic.... More
