This half French/half Dutch resort sits on the border of St. Martin
Guests can enjoy both the Dutch and French sides of St. Martin at Captain Oliver's Resort. The hotel is on the French side, while the restaurants and marina are on the Dutch side, symbolizing the island's unity. Dawn Beach is located just across the bay, only a two-minute trip via the free water taxi. Orient Beach is a 12-minute drive away.Captain Oliver's Resort Rooms

Sailing with Moorings St Martin
The hotel is very convenient to Moorings base. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. The room was spacious. Bathroom was clean...the facilities could use some updating, but nothing was bad. The restaurant was not as good as the little bar down the pier...not clear what they aim for with it.

SMX Weekend Escape
Capt Oiver's is a great value hotel that provides a great location for those that prefer the east side of SMX and are renting a car. It is a small hotel with a nice, relaxed marina atmosphere. The restaurant has good dining situated along the mariana dock, but the wait staff have the typical caribbean, laissez-faire service. My room was clean and quiet. SMX currently has significant road construction near the west side of Philipsburg, so traffic along the south side of the island was heavily jammed both on my way to the hotel and back to the airport. In my long weekend trip, I was content to be on the east side beaches for the duration and avoided the traffic concern. From the hotel, it is a short drive north to Baje Orientale or south to Philipsburg. For me, it was great mid-point location for a great price.

The Getaway Spot away from the Madness
Went to the beach, dine and enjoyed happy hour. What would have made my stay more enjoyable if they had taken better control of the mosquitoes and the room needed to be cool. Somehow the air conditioners seemed to blow hot air so I couldn't sleep. The food was superb compared to other hotels and the waitress and bartenders were so nice.

Not 4 Star
This hotel advertises itself at 4 star, but it's really 1 or 2 star. The entire facility is way overdue for a complete renovation. Everything is showing wear and tear. The best thing it has going is its location at the Oyster Pond Marina. If you're chartering a boat, it is very convenient, and only steps away from the docks. The pool is nice and the staff is friendly enough- just the rooms need a complete re-do. I can't imagine staying more than 1 or 2 nights.

This is no 4 star resort!
We stayed here 1 night prior to departing on a Moorings sail. The bathrooms are very old, small and have never been renovated. Service is bland if not non existant. Pool furniture is in need of replacement. This is simply not a 4 star resort. I'd be generous in giving them a 2 AAA star rating.

Great place to visit and stay
A great place to stay the week. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Atmosphere for a cozy getaway. Interent only available in lobby is only drawback to great week. Several french resturants available. All we attended was good.

Great rooms with a/c!!
Rooms were great with a nice view! However the "bars and restaurants" claimed by the resort were lackluster and were kinda disappointing.
