Secrets St. Martin Resort & Spa

Danielle Beckler

My husband and I recently visited Secrets St.Martin! We were unsure of what to expect , as reviews were mixed, but we were beyond thrilled with our experience at Secrets ! The staff at the resort are so friendly, and always make sure you are taken care of . The food and drinks were also excellent, we did not have one bad meal , and we felt that they really had a great selection to choose from . The location of the resort is probably the best feature. The beach was literally paradise, the landscape surrounding it is breath-taking, and very tranquil we never had an issue with finding chairs at the beach…We read a lot of poor reviews about the resort being run down, however we did not feel that way at all, there are definitely a few things that need a little updating, but aside from that everything is clean and really kept beautiful. We will definitely be returning to secrets st.martin !

Secrets St. Martin was a fantastic getaway! The food was delicious, with plenty of variety to satisfy. Service was top-notch—staff were friendly and attentive. The location is stunning, perfect for soaking in the island’s beauty. Our Privilege Swim-Out Room was a highlight, offering luxury and direct pool access. Highly recommend!

3.5 stars, the location of the resort/beach is absolutely beautiful if you are seeking a quiet and relaxing resort without entertainment. (no activities, evening shows, water sports or equipment rentals) The beach has beautiful calm and clear water, there is a water-sport rental business that is not a part of the resort but we were bummed there was no where to rent a snorkel and a ton of rocks/coral and fish to see along the jetty. Tons of available seating and umbrellas on the beach, the beach bar was very quiet and you can quickly get a drink. (beach bar is not located on the beach) The pool is great but filled with sand, the showers to rinse off leaving the beach were not working… the pool bar was open but the swim up bar was not open once in the week that we were there. Tons of available seating with sun or shade as well as towels. The food at the buffet was average, I thought everything tasted great the food was just a bit repetitive and lacked variations. The Japanese restaurant was the only actual specialty restaurant that stayed open during our stay, highly recommend it if you like sushi and hibachi. The other specialty restaurants were open on a rotating schedule served in the conference/ball room that they transitioned into a temporary restaurant while the actual building for these restaurants on the beach was closed… this was very disappointing as the atmosphere was strange but the food was very very good. The staff and service at the resort was most definitely a 10/10, we had no problem tipping for their great service except there is NO ATM on the property or close by… we eventually ran out of cash and the closest ATM is at a bank at least 3km away so you will have to take a taxi and hope they are open… lovely shops across the street that take credit cards as well as an amazing Italian restaurant that I would highly recommend. The resort is located at least 30-45 minutes from all tourist attractions, excursions, shopping, public beaches etc so if you are planning to go out and explore or book excursions be prepared to bring lots of cash for taxis every fare was $40 - $50 each way.. . much cheaper to rent a car if you plan on going out and exploring and feel comfortable driving on the windy island roads here. Resort is much smaller than we thought, the grounds and buildings are a bit run down and are most definitely in need of some maintenance… overall we had a great stay and would recommend this resort for the average person looking for a relaxing vacation as this most definitely is not a luxurious or entertainment savvy/party resort. The rooms were beautiful, spacious and the cleaning staff did an outstanding job keeping them clean!

First time at an all inclusive, the staff was really nice, but the resort definately needs some love. The hallways to the rooms were a mess, but i was happy when the room was in good condition. Reminds me of a carnival cruise ship on land, which we overall enjoyed, but the price was high for what you get. Food was good, not great.

Okay - so it may not be the luxury 5 stars that you would typically get at a Secrets Resort. But its still a great place to be and we enjoyed our week there. The room was tidy - we did have issues with the sink clogging up but they were pretty quick to address the issue. Comfy bed, nice hot water in the showers. No complaints. Staff were nice, will say the service is a bit slow but hey - we're on island time right?! Food was good, drinks were great. Loved the pool - especially the iguana's that would take a dip with us Beach was nice, but be prepared to play the chair game and get up early to save seats. There are not enough covered areas at the back and the pool if you get there later in the day Shoutout to Sunshine at the pool - He's a rockstar
