We (two adults and two children, 11 and 7) stayed at this property for a week in March 2013. We did read about the murder there last year, but it appears to have been a targeted attack over a dispute rather than a random attack on tourists. The security appeared adequate and we never felt unsafe during our stay there.... More

Not for the young at heart. Very old crowd. You need to hire a car as there is very little in walking distance. Supermarket at Porto Cupecoy (10 minute walk) and a selection of ludicrously overpriced mock pseudo Americanised French restaurants also at the marina. Ignore the nonsense over the murder, it wasn't a random tourist couple murdered, it was... More

Just came back from 2 weeks in St. Maarten. Our first week was at Ocean Club Villas. It was our first time at this location. Must admit that I was a bit nervous since we heard about the murder, but figured that security must have been improved as a result. And, we were correct! At night, there was a guard... More

2 US Tourists murdered there last week. this did not have to happen. These tourists were loyal and have been there many times. The reason you go to an island is to relax and enjoy the water and culture. This puts a black eye on this island and I will not be back until I feel it is safe again

We stayed two weeks at Ocean Club June 16-July 2, and we loved it. They have updated the furniture,flat screen TV, new deck furniture, new cabanas at the pool (old umbrellas are gone), painted everything. Bananas are growing in the garden. We've stayed here before and liked it, then. Even better now. The Club is very close to many beaches,... More

Just got back from The Ocean Club. Two weeks just wasn't enough to spend in St. Maarten. I was pleasantly surprised at some of the renovations. New mattresses was a big one! Flat screen tv with the same terrible channels available. But who watches that much tv when you have the beautiful weather!! As always, Ken was himself at the... More

We stayed a week with another couple, friends of some 30 years, in Villa #10. The villa was fine. It wasn't the Four Seasons but it was clean and comfortable. The pool was clean but, like a few other spots here and there, needed a touch up. Nothing major but I'd be lying if I said it was up to... More

The Ocean Club Villas and Residence Inn is old world charm. The Club was build many, many years ago and unfortunately it shows. While we were there for a month, some renovations were started, but when we arrived there were construction materials in our parking spot. It looked as if it had been there for years and was never touched... More

Xmas in St Maarten need we say more. Ocean Club is clean , comfortable the air worked fine and did not need a key to operate it, the office gal is helpful and who needs to watch TV on holidays don' t we go away to relax and catch up on each other. The resort sits on a cliff over... More
