Good Afternoon Riselle , I really loved all of your fabulous information on the 10 Must Do Activities on St Maarten . I have my list handy on my phone for when I visit. I look forward to your videos each week for sure ! Cheers 🥂
Hello! Omg I’m so glad I came across your channel. We will be in St Maarten in about 3 weeks for a day. We are planning to do 3 out of the ten things you spoke about. I’m so excited!!! Thank you 🥰
Thank you for this informative video traveling island girl! I'm visiting soon and you definitely helped with my activity planning! Keep up the amazing content! Love & blessings from Trinidad!
Thank you! I just booked a cruise out of St. Maarten's December 28th, 2021 and have 3 days in your beautiful country before I leave ... I didn't have a clue what to do -- Now I do! You rock!
Hi Riselle! Thank you for your very informative videos about visiting St. Maarten. We'll be there for the month of March and are very much looking forward to our stay on your beautiful island.
Thank you for your insightful travel tips! We will be arriving in SXM January 06. Cannot WAIT to return to the beautiful island, it has been way too long!!!
Do you know if now it is possible to get a day trip to Anguilla and or St.Barth ? Thank you for this wonderful introduction to your country, I am excited to visit soon.
What a great list! Thank you so much for all of the tips! Will be there in December off of Oasis of the Seas. I have been vaccinated, and wondered if I could take the ferries you mentioned, or if I'll be limited to the ship's tours? I am booked on the horseback ride right now, and am looking forward to it, but am intrigued by some of the other options you mention.
Diana, That’s great. Thank you for watching my videos. I have received your email as well. Look out for next week’s video. It will have some of the info you asked me about.
heading to SXM in a little over 2 weeks and I cannot wait! I’ve been wondering, is it easy enough to get taxis home from most parts of the island? We have a couple plans where we’ll all want to have a few drinks and won’t want to drive - sitting at the bar on Maho Beach, having dinner in Grand Case and touring Topper’s are the main ones.
Yes. You can ask the owners or managers at the restaurants to call a taxi for you. They usually have a list of preferred taxis they work with. I would also recommend you to take the number from one of the taxi drivers and keep it at hand in case the property you visit cannot get a hold of one of their regulars.
This is a very informative video. I'm currently planning a trip to St. Maarten for October 2022. Are there companies that do aquatic tours? Perhaps swimming with dolphins etc?
I believe there are some new aquatic companies. Especially new boat charters. As for swimming with dolphins: I will never endorse this or any other activity that promotes or offers the unethical treatment of animals.
Hi Riselle! Are there any festivals or neat events happening in St. Martin during the month of May? I am planning to visit somewhere around the last few weeks.
Thank you so much I've been trying to figure where can I go with my passport for the first time where I will feel someone safe I want to enjoy the trip and not look over my shoulder ever second and this seems like the perfect place not to much but just right. Thank you.
I'll be coming this August with my family since I'm going to auc med, thank you for the helpful tips and ideas! Definitely planning on doing some of these
Hello Riselle! I love your channel and informative videos.We are coming to visit next month and are thinking of staying close to the airport at an Airb&b on Simpson Bay Road (close to the Turquoise Shell Inn). The house is right on the beach and offers incredible ocean views and the rates are quite affordable. But we are wondering about excessive jet noise being that close to the airport. Would you think this would be a problem at that location? Thank you.
Hi there. You’ll definitely be hearing the jet engines but the location you are describing in Simpson Bay is not right at the airport or the airstrip. So the sound should not be at a level that it will disrupt your vacation in any way.
Hello and thank you so much for your video , I am coming in Feb and will stay at the Sapphire Resort. I would like to know where can I go to get my return C19 test at a reasonable cost? I also know that I want to take two tours. First tour on ATV around the island and a day boat trip with snorkeling and visits of other beaches. I appreciate your commentary. Thank you once again. I am so excited and vacinnated with boost.
Hi Linda. Thank you for watching the video. You can find my other suggestions in my SXM playlist: ruclips.net/p/PL3XxaNVDsf5DgHL9PydBXkVeA9oe1G3h_ I don’t have any information ok ATV tours. It is not something I recommend or support. As for COVID tests performed on the island, you can find a list on stmaartenupdates.com Happy travels.
Hi Riselle! My fiancé and I have been watching watching your videos as we plan our honeymoon trip for this summer! What car rental company do you recommend?
Thanks again for the great tips! We are here at the moment and will be renting a car tomorrow and try to hit as many attractions you've mentioned! I was trying to find a previous video for the name of the breakfast restaurant you said is a 40 year staple on the island, but can't find it. Can you tell me the name and location please? I believe it's one you received complimentary as part of an Airbnb stay...
so happy you’re here enjoying the island. The restaurant you are asking about is called Chesterfield’s and is located on the edge of Philipsburg. It’s on the way to the harbor or cruise port. It will be on your right.
Hi, could you please tell me more about the day trip to other islands, boat tour, tintamarre island. information on the people that offer these services would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance🙏🏾
You can find information on Tintamarre island in this video. The links for the schedule and cost are in the description box of this video. Please check the other videos in the St. Maarten playlist. You'll find that most of your questions are answered. I offer a travel planning service if you need more detailed and customized plan. ruclips.net/video/wEI5Oo1w0FU/видео.html
Hi Norlyn, Looks like you can use some advice customized to your trip. Please feel free to send me an email so we can discuss how best to help you. Hello@thetravelingislandgirl.com
Headed out in June. So excited! Wanna visit St. Bart and Anguilla while we are there if possible. Also would like to take professional family pictures on the beach. Any suggestions for best location or photographers? TIA😘
YT does that automatically but is not very familiar with the Caribbean. Perhaps I should invite them to visit so they can get the time stamp right next time 😂
Ok so here we are at the lolo's in grand case..sitting at your spot by the sea. Eating stuff crab and christophine...waiting on my lobster tail....great recommendations...i would suggest you tell others about the free parking across the bridge...i think that would be helpful information to know...thank you for the effort you go through to make these videos !!!
Thanks Vinicio. I’ve been wondering about that myself. That’s why I made a nee video where animal encounters are not mentioned. Thanks for caring about animals 🙏🏾
Here you go: ruclips.net/video/wEI5Oo1w0FU/видео.html Apparently the shuttle service mentioned in the video is no longer operational. The only way I know to currently get to Tintamarre is on snorkel tours or chartered boats.
Love your video. Do you have a recommendation on boat company for spending the day on tbe water? Also, suggestion on a a place to eat Caribbean style lobster?
This is one of the boats I recommend: ruclips.net/video/Iu8fTuziBUs/видео.html I don't agree with how lobsters are killed so I am not the best person to answer your question about lobsters. You'll see in the video about the boat that they do offer lobster and, unfortunately for the lobsters, so do a lot of other restaurants all over the island.
Good day! Thank you so much for all the information you've shared. I have such a love for the island and will be visiting this weekend. I believe you mentioned which rental car company you recommend in one of your videos but I can't recall which one?
Hiking and the beach come to mind. But beware of which beach. There nay be strays or loose dogs that can cause problems. Keep your dog on the leash when at the beach.
Do a tour of the resorts on Orient bay...Please.!! We haven't seen that area in while and it seems to be a few new resorts along the beach front. I remember when Orient Bay was the Crown Jewel of SXM...and how are things at the new All-inclusive resort in that area going. ( Anse Marcel) ..?
@@TheTravelingIslandGirl For the last 20-years we split our vacation time between SXM and MBJ... But after Orient closed that whole area lost it's 🔥🔥🔥🔥 can't wait to review what you find... Love and hugs my friend and happy holidays 🎄🎄🎄🎉🎉
@@TheTravelingIslandGirl That's what we've been wondering about. (Club Orient)was our favorite resort and after Irma the resort was destroyed along with a few others and that entire area lost it's luxurious feel... Can't wait to review what you publish..I know it'll be an amazing review..🏖️🏖️👍😊
I’m not a fan of all inclusive resorts. These are often owned by foreign companies that don’t have the island’s interest at heart. All inclusive also usually takes away of a more local experience. Having said that, I completely understand the appeal. As far as I know the better food is usually outside of the resorts and at the many gourmet experiences around the island
I stay at Hilton & went to supermarket to buy food. Not bad prices. Hilton has a full kitchen. Pots utenstils microwave stove oven full fridge. I recommend here
@@jessicag3858 took a three hour bus tour around entire island. There were dilapidated homes and businesses in so many locations there were not any nice structures. Just a bad experience.
@@fsd34760 that is sad to hear. They didn't recover well from Irma in 2017. Hopefully they do well with tourism and build back up within the next few year. Thanks for replying!
Yea I’m at the Hilton, just staying at beach & get food at supermarket not going. Anywhere. It’s too humid to be outside, just staying in ocean for my 10 days
I was pregnant this summer when I went but can’t wait to book a boat excursion next time!! Also hopefully the Pinel ferry is open 😂. It was covered in seaweed! Orient Beach was nice to see.
Great video. I have one question? Do to my blood pressure issues and my religion I don’t get the vaccine…. Plus I just saw an the news that is not mandatory anymore in USA. Can I still travel to St Martin without getting the vaccine?
Thank you for your comment. I hope leaving such a nasty comment has made your day. You obviously need more joy in your life. Perhaps a visit to the Caribbean might fix that 😉 Greetings from St. Maarten. The Old Lady
@@TheTravelingIslandGirl I really enjoyed the video. And all of them actually. I am going to SXM from the US in a few weeks and have used your videos to help build our vacation. As a matter of fact, we put down 3 of your recommended restaurants (from another video) in our "must-do" list. You will always have one or two people like this person, but just know that the service you provide with you videos and tips is a huge help to most of us. Thank you for all you do!

Good morning! How far is this from the cruise ports?...walkable or do we need to uber?
How far is what exactly? Please note that there is no Uber here. Just taxis and illegal rides called Gypsies, which I highly discourage.
Thought Toppers had a distillery in Simpson Bay?
As far as I know, rum is not made here. Beer, yes. Rum, no.
Thank you for such detailed suggestions. Will be in SXM next month SXM for a birthday celebration!
You are welcome. Happy travels.
How was your trip? 😊
Thanks for your must-do activities. I will be in St. Martin in 4 weeks. Really helpful.
Glad my videos were helpful. Happy travels.

Do you know if now it is possible to get a day trip to Anguilla and or St.Barth ? Thank you for this wonderful introduction to your country, I am excited to visit soon.
Yes, definitely possible to both but Anguilla does require you to be fully vaccinated.

If you buy the rum, can you bring it on the ship without a problem?
You should with no issues. They will most probably hold it for you till the end of the cruise to make sure you’re buying drinks on board.
If you want to drink it on the ship, you will need to smuggle it. Research the methods.
I totally enjoyed this video. I took lots of notes. Thank you for sharing.
Thank YOU for watching 😉
