  What a week - a true week in PARADISE 🌴💛

  This place truly has it all: stunning views, beautiful beaches, amazing food, and an incredible team. From the moment I arrived, the management and staff made everything feel effortless and special. I met so many wonderful people during my stay, which made the experience even more memorable. The resort offers something for everyone — a wide range of activities, beautiful beaches, breathtaking views, unforgettable sunsets, quiet and relaxing spots, a lovely infinity pool, and comfortable, well-appointed rooms. I truly enjoyed my stay. My days started with a great breakfast, followed by relaxing time on the beach, pleasant walks around the resort, and strolls into Philipsburg. During my stay, the resort hosted Wellness Weeks, offering a variety of daily classes taught by professional NRG2GO instructors. I really enjoyed the yoga, pilates, power beach walks, aqua fitness, and more. It added so much value to the overall experience. I can highly recommend this resort and would love to return in the future.

  Divi little bay vacation

  Very Disappointing Stay — Not the Divi Experience We Expected My group and I were extremely disappointed with our recent stay at Divi Little Bay in St. Maarten. As Divi Platinum Members, we were looking forward to a relaxing and enjoyable trip, but instead we experienced ongoing issues that greatly impacted our vacation. 1. Check-In Problems & Accessibility Issues Check-in took over two hours, and we were told the rooms we reserved were not available. The front desk agent repeatedly insisted there was nothing he could do and discouraged us from speaking with a manager. We were eventually placed in rooms up a steep hill with many stairs—even though one of our guests has a disability. Despite promises from management to resolve it, no one followed up. Shuttle service was unreliable and often never arrived; at one point, in the rain, a shuttle driver waved us off and kept driving. 2. Poor Attitudes at Bars & Beach Service Several staff interactions were unprofessional. At one bar, cases of water were visible, yet the bartender refused to provide any—even though our stay was all-inclusive—telling us they were “closed” and directing us elsewhere. Other bars sent us right back. At the beach, the attendant refused to place us in the front row of chairs unless we tipped heavily. When we asked for pool noodles, we were told they were “for marking,” though other guests were using them freely. 3. Dining Disappointments * Gizmo’s closed its kitchen at 9:30 PM despite posted hours stating 10 PM. * Pure Ocean is now a buffet with poor quality food, and the à la carte option being Italian felt out of place for the island. It no longer resembles the elevated restaurant it used to be. * Seabreeze was closed for renovations, even though the website stated it would reopen in November—which had already passed. This significantly limited dining options and would have changed our decision to purchase the all-inclusive package. 4. Inconsistent Service & Staff Conduct To be fair, a few team members were wonderful—Raffino at the Taco Shack, Lou the bartender, Justin, Sandarine at the front desk, and Tony from entertainment. Their kindness and attentiveness truly stood out. Unfortunately, many other experiences were negative: * A concierge employee (Sophia, to our understanding) refused to take a simple photo for us in an empty lobby. * One of our rooms was never cleaned, and requesting towels led to over an hour of waiting. When we followed up, we were told to pick them up ourselves after dinner. * At The Mix, a waiter tried to charge us a $45 fee for simply being on the rooftop, even though we were only trying to access the advertised happy hour specials—and this charge had never been communicated. 5. Facility & Amenity Issues * Wi-Fi did not work anywhere, despite showing as connected. * The bushes at the infinity pool were so overgrown they completely blocked the sunset view. * Our rooms lacked basic all-inclusive amenities—no beverages, no soap, and shortages throughout the stay. Overall This experience did not match the service, quality, or amenities Divi Little Bay advertises—especially given the price of the all-inclusive package. Many elements we relied on when booking were unavailable or misrepresented. We hope management takes these issues seriously, as this was far from the standard we’ve come to expect from Divi Resorts.

  The worst resort evee

  This was the absolute worst resort I have ever stayed at. We waited hours in line to check in for our room, wait 40 min for the bellman to bring us to our room and when we got into the room it hasn't been cleaned. There was poop in the toilet, dirty towels on the floor, pubic hair all over the bathroom, dirty cups in the sink. Back to the front desk we went and they didn't give a care. No apologies, stuck us in another room for the night and told us our room would be cleaned and ready for tomorrow. Next day, get into out room and it still hadn't been cleaned. The staff are terrible, rude and uncaring. We will never stay at another DIVI.

  Beautiful Resort but lacks in Service

  Awesome views and clean room. Not so much going on at the hotel but it’s worth it for relaxation. Service wasn’t up to standard like how I am use to when I visit other islands. We kinda felt like we were begging these people to help us. Overall it felt like they didn’t want to talk or provide any service at all. However, we were extremely pleased with 2 staff members. The lady at the pizzeria “Laurel” who provided exceptional service and smiles to my son especially when ordering pizza. In addition Mimi from PureOcean restaurant who ensured we were taken care of every morning for breakfast.

  Wonderful Resort Amazing staff.

  Just got home from an amazing trip. As usual the place was beautiful, Rooms are nice and food is great but what really makes this resort stand out is the staff. Long tenured , super friendly and I consider them all my family. From the minute you check in we always make sure we ask for the room we would like and they are very accommodating. I message with night manager Sandra Rogers she’s amazing. Getting to our room with help of the golf cart service is excellent our favourites are Felix and Roger. We now do all inclusive after 20 some years we rather just relax on the resort and the wonderful beach and pools. We love to catch up with our friends (staff. ) Here are my favourite and if I miss anyone I’m sorry but everyone is so wonderful. Caron, Amanda, Yolanda, Paul at breakfast . Server Andrew is the best whether he is at Pure Ocean. gizmos or Sea Breeze. Bartenders Lew, Oran and Stephen. Devon is the best server on the beach always a smile and quick delivery actually he knows us so well we just think of our bucket of beer and water and it is delivered . Kenya and Marisol and Gilberto always are happy to see us and offer great service at Gizmos . We also have our favourite supervisors Melissa, Rosa, And Martin. This trip we did not see Martico often but he always makes sure to come and say hi. We don’t go to the pool bar often but we know if we do Jamal will greet us with a hug . Tony makes the activities and the fun he is a good friend to us. Lester trains us hard in water aerobics keeping us in shape. This year @NRG2GO was there providing fitness activities, Freija was our trainer and it was an amazing experience and really hope Divi keeps them coming. We did power walks and stretch, yoga, Pilates and water aerobics.
