A veritable gem on the vibrant shores of Simpson Bay, the Hilton Vacation Club Royal Palm St Maarten stands as a testament to refined Caribbean living. Located steps from the powdery sands of Royal Palm Beach, guests are welcomed into a lobby that exudes airy sophistication, where high ceilings and tropical decor set a serene tone. Expect an immediate sense of relaxation, framed by stunning vistas of turquoise waters and beckoning palm trees. Signature elements include a lively swim-up bar seamlessly connected to the Cabana Beach Bar, inviting guests to sip cocktails under an endless sun. The spacious suites, adorned with calming hues of blue and beige, feature comfortable living areas, contemporary furnishings, and full kitchens - a perfect blend of comfort and convenience. As day gives way to night, the exotic sounds of calypso music drift over from the beach, enhancing the vibrant atmosphere and creating unforgettable memories.

Explore the Local Area

Royal Palm Beach Resort serves as an excellent launching pad for both adventure seekers and leisure lovers. Just a short walk brings you to Simpson Bay's eclectic selection of restaurants and shops, where local flavors are celebrated. The striking beauty of Kim Sha Beach is mere steps away, while the renowned Orient Bay Beach lies a scenic 35-minute drive away on the French side of the island. For those keen on exploring, exciting activities like zip lining at Loterie Farm or scuba diving in the clear Caribbean waters await. Transport is convenient, with Princess Juliana International Airport just 5 km away, ensuring a seamless transition between the resort and your travels beyond.

Room Information

The Hilton Vacation Club Royal Palm St Maarten boasts 140 spacious suites, each thoughtfully designed to accommodate families, couples, or solo travelers seeking both comfort and elegance. Standard amenities include air conditioning, complimentary WiFi, and fully equipped kitchens with modern appliances, cookware, and utensils. The decor reflects the island's natural charm, with tile floors and stylish furnishings inviting relaxation and togetherness.

Room Upgrades

Upgrade options include the stunning 2-bedroom suites, ranging from 1,200 to 1,600 sq ft; these feature expansive living rooms, full kitchens, and private balconies with ocean views providing the ideal setting for sunset observations. For larger families, options extend to suites accommodating up to eight guests, complete with upscale amenities - including king- and queen-sized beds outfitted with plush linens and aesthetic blue accents - ensuring that everyone enjoys a taste of Caribbean comfort and ease.

“I noted that this hotel emphasizes space and self-sufficiency with its suites, which include full kitchens-a real plus for families or longer stays. Its location near Simpson Bay puts dining and nightlife within easy reach, while the resort's own activities and social scene provide plenty to do without venturing far, although I did hear about noise from a nearby club. The resort's commitment to family-friendly services and recreational amenities makes it, in my opinion, a solid base for exploring St. Maarten.”
