First time visiting SXM and it did not disappoint! La Vista was beautiful. Our room was on the upper level and we had an amazing view of the bay. We spent our time at the lower pool by the beach. Great sunsets. The location was excellent, we walked most places and took the bus when needed. Highly recommend staying here!

The hotel is beautiful .. everything you want from a hotel. Staff so friendly ! No bar at the restaurant from 3pm but there is a supermarket very close. Location great. Short walk down hill to a gorgeous beach. Sand and sea amazing. (I’d say best on the island). Took a tour with a local which was fab. If you want to go to Maho beach to see the planes land be there around 230pm (obv flight times change) Lots of restaurants and bars near the beach that are all reasonably priced. Would def come

Our stay at La Vista Hotel was very nice. There was a cute restaurant that was part of the (The Hideaway) and the staff there were really sweet and welcoming. There was also a pool with lounge chairs and it overlooked the beach. The room we stayed in was cute with a comfortable bed. It also had a nice kitchenette where we were able to make snacks for the road. The bathroom was a bit small with a tiny shower, but it more than served its purpose. We really liked the proximity to other restaurants, supermarkets, and public transportation in Simpson Bay. We were able to catch the dollar vans to the beaches (Maho, Mullet Bay) as well as Philipsburg, which made our ability to travel around the island more accessible. I would definitely stay at La Vista Hotel again and would recommend it to others.

We had never stayed here. I had my reservations staying in such a busy part of the island because all our previous stays in St Maarten were in less developed areas. But, I will say that the resort area was super quiet and cozy. We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit on the beach, so I cannot personally speak to the part of the resort that is up higher, but I will say that we spoke to many people there in timeshare units on the beach and up higher, and everyone was super friendly. People seemed to know each other like it was a happy community. We did not meet anyone that had been coming to La Vista for less than 14 years-most were in the 20s! There was an impressive feeling of continual love for the place. The grounds were lush, well kept, and had a small-scale feel. The room was absolutely spotless. No one is harder to please than me in this respect. We had one small issue arise spontaneously in our room and when we brought it to the attention of the front desk it was attended to immediately. The beach is rocky at the water's edge which made the waves crashing on it a constant part of the soundtrack to our stay. It was lovely. There are a few restaurants and a market to walk to. The people at La Vista and the other resorts near by walk to these places, so there is a nice local atmosphere and it felt super safe. We stayed with an 8 year-old boy. He is exceptionally well behaved, but in any case everyone was lovely to him. He begs me to tell you he loved the pool and 3 cats!
