Overall, we had a good experience during our stay in Sint Maarten. The location was excellent, with Mullet Bay Beach just a short five-minute walk away and numerous restaurants nearby. We especially enjoyed the infinity pool and the private beach access. Stacey, the property manager, was responsive, helpful, and quick to address issues that arose during our stay.That said, there were a few areas that could be improved:1. My understanding is that hosts on VRBO are required to provide check-in instructions at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled check-in time. I sent a message to the host through VRBO 48 hours prior to check-in, since we hadn't received this information. He did not respond, so I sent another message about 24 hours prior to check-in. Finally, we received a response with check-in instructions at 8:23am on the day of arrival (less than 8 hours prior to check-in).2. There was no hot water when we arrived. Fortunately, Stacey responded promptly and had the issue resolved quickly.3. One of the balcony chairs was broken.4. One of the provided beach chairs and the beach umbrella were also broken.5. The mattresses in the bedrooms seemed to be worn and were not very comfortable.
