Karibuni Boutique Hotel

Just completed a week long stay at the Baltazar villa @ the Karibuni. The Villa was immaculately clean featured stunning furnishings both inside an and out. The crew at Karibuni are AMAZING. They picked us up at the airport - arranged for the rental car to be at the villa upon arrival. They fulfilled a request to decorate the inside with a huge balloon display for my sister in law's 60th along as well as wine, cheese and fresh fruit. Jules is fabulous, he went above and to ensure that everything went according to plan and all of our expectations were exceeded. We were so well cared for and attended to. Arranging for the in house dinner was fantastic and the chef was wonderful. You all literally out did yourselves and for that we thank you!!!

If you have any hesitation about visiting this beautiful property, please do yourself a favor and go! Booking Unfortunately due to personal circumstances out of our control, we had to move our reservation back a week. We notified the property about a week prior to our arrival and Elliot and Karl were very understanding, empathetic and accommodating. We were able to work out logistics and even had the opportunity to enjoy both of their beautiful suites during our stay. Arrival Elliot arranged for us to access our suite when we arrived. This was much appreciated as we arrived when the office was closed. We were able to get settled and start to enjoy a relaxing vacation. The suite was immaculately clean and very spacious. Elliot also welcomed us with a delicious cocktail and got us up to speed with all of the amenities. Service Both Elliot and Karl were very responsive with any requests and recommendations. Sylvanna is absolutely lovely and brought our delicious breakfast every morning. The bread piping hot and I will always remember those croissants! Sylvanna also kept our room meticulous during our entire stay. Shuttle to Pinel and Karibuni Restaurant The suite comes with a shuttle to Pinel that leaves either 9:30 or 11:00 am. The Karibuni team that captains the shuttle were absolutely awesome. As soon as you arrive at Pinel you are greeted with reserved umbrella and chairs in the best location on the beach. The beach services with Esteban and team were very responsive and the drinks were excellent. The food at Karibuni is absolutely delicious. The lobster was the best Caribbean lobster that we ever had. Other items on the menu such as the fish and chips and ribs were awesome. Overall We can’t wait to visit St. Maarten and Karibuni again. Honestly, it will be difficult to plan a trip to the island without staying at Karibuni. For us, staying somewhere else is not an option. Thank you Elliot, Karl, Sylvanna and Manon!
