Dawn Beach Club
Dawn Beach Club (Host Resort for the Retreat) is located on Dawn Beach along St. Maarten’s eastern coast. Upscale accommodations are furnished with neutral and pastel decor, and private patios or balconies. The resort sits on the edge of a private beach located near the historic Fort Amsterdam and Sint Maarten Yacht Club. You’ll have easy access to sugary sands, as well as an expansive outdoor infinity pool. And if you’re seeking an even more relaxed setting, you can indulge in a soothing treatment by scheduling in-room massages from local spa professionals. The resort features an on-site restaurant and a poolside cafe that serves lighter fare.
Oyster Bay Beach Resort
Oyster Bay Beach Resort overlooks the Caribbean and provides stunning sunrise views. Travel + Leisure Magazine calls Oyster Bay Beach Resort one of the top five resorts in the Caribbean for value. An infinity pool built on an old coral reef and full-service spa await your indulgence. The white sands of Dawn Beach are a two-minute walk from the hotel, while the popular and lively Orient Bay Beach is a 20-minute drive. Additional restaurants and shops are a five-minute walk from the hotel in the enclave of Oyster Pond. In the small Dutch cruise town of Philipsburg, a 15-minute drive away from the hotel, are popular restaurants, shops, and a lively boardwalk. The small market town of Marigot, the French capital, can also be reached in a 35-minute drive.
