Overview

The Royal Islander Resort La Plage offers a fantastic location right on Maho Beach and next to the airport runway, providing stunning aircraft views. Guests appreciate the convenient proximity to shops, restaurants, and a casino. While some rooms might be dated, the resort is generally described as clean and well-maintained. The large pool and plane-spotting deck are highlights. However, the close proximity to the airport means significant noise and fuel smell, and some find the beds uncomfortable. Note that there's no on-site room service for breakfast.

The hotel is a little bit outdated but in a super location. Shopping stores, casino, restaurants, market, airport, etc...The beach is super nice and the water is as clear as glass. The staff was very friendly and attentive but the room we stayed at has seen better days. Being next to the airport run way is cool the first day but gets old pretty quick. My family stayed away from using the pool as the chlorine smell was very strong and almost unbearable for our confort. The price is very fair for what you get and would stay again.

Beaitiful location on beach, next to the airport runway so you will get up close views of the planes coming in. The planes are loud so if your not into that you may wanna stay elsewhere. Its also a busy area with loud music and car traffic, didnt bother us but we are city folks and used to the noise. Easy to walk to restaurants and shops and theres a small grocery market right behind hotel, very convenient location. Our only complaint is the bed was really hard and not very comfy.

Property itself is good. Pool is good. There are many food options within a 2 min walk that range from cheap to higher end. Kitchen is always nice so you can make your own breakfast, etc. Decent grocery store right across the street. The flight landings and takeoffs are right beside the hotel and they are built in entertainment. This is NOT a problem for sleeping as the airport is basically shut down by early evening. I would rate higher, but there is no beach for the property. You have to go to the Maho beach which is in all the photographs of airplane landings, but as a beach it is actually small, poor, and not that safe (from a water/wave viewpoint). Do NOT allow little kids to wade in. Basically, Maho beach is just a photo op area for an hour. There are plenty of beaches on the island but you will need a car and planning.

Stayed 5 nights late April to early May. Whatever issue they had with the A/C and hot water were resolved before we arrived although it takes a minute for the hot water to really kick in. It's a clean, quiet place in a great location. Staff was very friendly, we were able to check in to our room early and keep our parking pass past checkout until we were ready to go to the airport. Definitely recommend if you want a calm, laid back place.

A dated yet beautiful convenient property near the airport and Maho beach. Donnette was particularly great during my check in and Mr. London is a great Activities Coordinator. I wish there was a room service option to order breakfast. Other than this great stay :)

The outside area of hotel was wonderful. We enjoyed the large pool with views of planes landing near by at the airport. The Tortuga restaurant had a nice breakfast reasonably priced. The issues we experienced were room related with the a/c not working all week and temperature around 80 making sleeping uncomfortable & losing hot water the last 2 days.

There is a bar the likes the blast music late at night if you are on the side closest to the airport. I could literally feel the bass shaking the room. I diddnt get much sleep.
