Hilton Vacation Club Royal Palm St. Maarten

We had a fantastic week at the Royal Palm! Travelled with our 2 teen boys, who enjoyed the beach, shuffle board area and cornhole game. Pros were our beautiful 2-bedroom suite, beach area, easy parking, and lots of fantastic restaurants and grocery store within walking distance. We had zero issue with any night noise (were worried about reviews from the nightclub across the street), but our room was on the side to the marina, maybe that helped…but even when we walked by the club later at night it did not seem overly loud. Only improvement could be for the included breakfast, which was just a voucher for the same exact breakfast every morning (bacon or sausage, eggs, potatoes and toast). Would have been nice to have some more variety for everyone for breakfast… but, other than that, was excellent. We would go back again for sure.

An amazing stay at the Royal Palm! Very one on staff was beyond welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable about the island. Can't wait to return!!

Nice break. HUGE rooms. The staff was outstanding. ALL of them, but I really appreciated Ms. Diana’s special attention in the restaurant. She was always right on top of things for us.

The Hilton Royal Palm was wonderful the staff were very quick to help with any needs. I would have liked to see a larger pool area and maybe staff more on the beach serving drinks but overall we would return to the Hilton Royal Palm.

Royal Palm is a great resort. Located within walking distance to lots of restaurants. Staff is attentive. Would stay here again.

Our stay was overall very pleasant. The resort is in a very good location. There is a walkout from the pool area to a private section of beach which was perfect. Well maintained grounds and daily servicing on their pool. It was a very nice temperature but unfortunately a tad small and shallow for my tastes. When we needed to do laundry there was a first come first served area that had a few washers and dryers to use for free. Rooms have most of the items you need. Including pots, pans, coffee machine, all cups and plates you would need, a blender, cutting board, oven and microwave. So all in all a well stocked kitchen. Now for what was a bit frustrating…. Elevators had issues constantly which made it especially difficult for my mum who can’t walk easily and we were on the 3rd floor. Even tho I asked for an room easy for her to get to. The elevator issues lasted for almost the full two weeks we were there. Some days we had no elevator at all. Other times only one in use, only our last day were both elevators working. Granted they said we could use the service elevator but that was not reasonable for my poor mum who could barely walk and the service elevator was quite far away at the other end of the building. We were up at 7am most mornings and watched everyday how people would save the spots on the beach even tho signs say “no saving” and then they walk away and are gone forever. Bar drinks are not that good. Very weak. Food is sub par at the Cabana
