We will be docking on August 30 on the Freedom of the Seas and are considering renting a car to see the island, there are 6 adults in our party. What car rental companies are based at the cruise port and what places are "must see"?

We'll be in St. Martin on November 11 which is your holiday.
What does that mean for things to see and do? What's open and what's closed? Thanks Karen |

Hi, i just found out i have $400 credit for a flight which i have to board by april 29th. and i don't know where to go! i'm flying out of nyc. so the carribean is a natural option. i am open to other places as well, but primarily my concern is safety. i am a single female travelling on my own for 3 nights. advice on st. martin, st. lucia, st kitts, etc? the last two are quite hefty in terms of travel times however.
Thanks! d. |

I'll be traveling to the french side of St Martin in a couple of weeks. Mostly I'll be laying around on a beach, wandering through shops, but I fully intend to take advantage of all the wonderful restaurants, especially in Grand Case. Can I wear sandals, tanks and shorts to these restaurants, or would I feel more comfortable with a different type of clothing?

We are considering St. Martin for our anniversary in January. We are not beachy people, more city people - but we want to have a week of relaxation. We are more interested in food, culture, history, spa treatments and seeing an occasional movie. Would prefer to be able to walk to several restaurants - the room doesn't have to be big, but if it had a balcony or terrace for reading that would be awesome. So, where should we stay? Philipsburg or Marigot? We'd like to stay under $200 per day. We are big Francophiles - especially love to go to Paris - but we would be open to staying on the Dutch side.
Merci, Mary |

I am planning a tropical-style trip in the month of November for myself and my husband. I don't really care where we go, but St. Maarten caught my eye. We have never been anywhere in the Carribean before and I am nervous about the hurricane season and bad weather. Our budget is to keep the flight (from Indiana) and hotel under $2500 total for 7 nights or so, which we have found is possible. Is November a safe month to travel to St. Maarten as far as weather is concerned?? If not, do you have any other suggestions for a destination? Thanks!

Ten years ago my wife and I had the greatest honeymoon we could have imagined on Saint Martin. The hotel was called Golden Tulip Beach Resort, located on the shore near Cul-de-Sac, looking out on Ilet Pinel.
I cannot find any current references to this hotel. (There are some out-dated links on the web that provide no current information.) The Golden Tulip chain of hotels has no information about it. I wonder if the hotel was sold to another company, and what the new name might be. I also wonder if the hotel was damaged beyond repair by a hurricane at some time. Any help you could provide would be most helpful. Thank-you. Muskoka-Johnny |
