We had a great stay at the resort, enjoying the stunning beach views and the spacious room. The staff was exceptionally friendly, making us feel welcome throughout our visit. However, the overall facility showed signs of previous damage, which affected the overall aesthetic, and some dining options were limited during our stay. The need to pay for electricity additionally felt a bit inconvenient, but we still found value in our experience.

Our stay at the Sea Palace was quite enjoyable due to its beachfront location and comfortable accommodations. The staff provided exceptional service, making our experience memorable. However, we faced some challenges with dining options in the area, particularly since many restaurants closed early. Additionally, the visible hurricane damage in the surroundings detracted from the overall experience even though the resort itself was well kept.

We just got back from an amazing week at Sea Palace Resort in St. Maarten, and I have to say, it was a truly special experience! The resort has been beautifully renovated and offers a stunning view of Great Bay. Our spacious unit was spotless and perfect for relaxing after spending time at the beach. The only downside was the noise during carnival season, but it added to the excitement of our trip. Overall, I highly recommend this resort for its fantastic location and excellent amenities.

I really enjoyed my stay at Sea Palace. the rooms are beautifully remodeled and the million-dollar views from the balcony are breathtaking. While the bed could have been a bit more comfortable. the overall ambiance and location made up for it.
