Hilton Vacation Club Flamingo Beach St. Maarten
Everything was reasonable and good, however there was a frequent sewer smell in the whole area. Would smell it while on balcony and while walking along the beach. Even when passing another hotel.

Oyster Bay Beach Resort
Room was good, nice views. Poor continental breakfast. Food staff inattentive. Made dinner reservation through Open Table which the restaurant never got so had to scramble for a table which was right near the kitchen and a group of 30.
