Welcome to Dutch branch in the Caribbean !

If you decided to spend your vacation in Caribbean and forget about city noise and traffic  you will not be able to find more suitable place than Dutch-French island St. Maarten.

When you begin your trip here, starting from your first step you feel this unique atmosphere. Reasonable question is: “Why unique?” Answer is simple: attractive and rich Latin culture here so close to free Dutch life, at the same time it’s not such wild as Central America. Anyway this is European branch of Caribbean.

St. Maarten is a beautiful 37 square mile island in the Caribbean in about 150 miles east of Puerto-Rico. It’s a small island divided between two governments: Dutch side which is 16 square miles and French side which covers remaining 21 square miles. So it’s a twice nice and you should expect both and “bonjour” and “goedemorgen”. Dutch side has capital Philipsburg and French side’s capital is Marigot. It’s real paradise and things it can offer will definitely surprise you. If you are hungry  there is a lot of food in world-class restaurants and hotels here will offer you first-class services. When your belly is full and you comfortable in your room, look outside your window on beautiful green hills, blue water and cloudless blue sky. Feel the warm sun on your face and just imagine yourself climbing on my hills, swimming in warm water and looking for local sunrise.
