Sonesta Maho Beach All Inclusive Resort Casino & Spa
The stay could have been better if the staff had explained everything more clearly and didn’t have an attitude when we asked questions. Also, our room had no view of the ocean or the pool, which was very disappointing.

Divi Little Bay Beach Resort
Location! Little Bay is great/beautiful beach. Good pools, restaurants and over all feel. Good for families. Room was fine (nothing special) but you’re paying for the view/location. Biggest complaint was that it’s notably understaffed, creating long wait times (pizza stand and bar in particular) ...
