This property has everything you need for a fun-filled stay. With the Caribbean on one side and the calm St Maarten beach of Simpson Bay Lagoon, one of the largest natural harbors in the Caribbean, you can spend the day relaxing on the powder-white sands of Simpson Bay or stake your claim to a palm tree. You have chosen an island destination that offers two vacation experiences in one: the chance to explore Dutch St. Maarten and French Saint Martin where you can enjoy the beaches, partake in land and sea adventures, soak up the ambiance, hit the island's hottest duty free shopping spots and when the sun goes down, indulge yourself with some of the finest dining and nightlife in the Caribbean.

A taste of paradise on The Friendly Island Crystal blue water, immaculate powder-white beaches and evening skies streaked with sunset-orange clouds - it doesn't get any better than this.

Stay busy with scuba diving, windsurfing, snorkeling, hiking and a host of other activities, all within minutes of the Flamingo Beach Resort. Or, take the opportunity to lie in the sun and do nothing at all.

Features An activity center at Flamingo Beach Resort helps guests plan everything from deep-sea fishing to parasailing. There's also plenty to do without leaving the resort -- stop in the gift shop to pick up some souvenirs, and enjoy great meals and drinks at Topper's by the Sea Restaurant.
