The hype
The pool and plane views are world-class, but the rooms feel surprisingly worn and the cleaning is hit-or-miss.

Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You're an aviation geek who wants to sip cocktails while 747s roar directly over your head.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Unrivaled plane-spotting from the rooftop observation deck and pool
- Beach-style infinity pool with a swim-up bar and grotto
- Walking distance to the famous Maho Beach action
Kurzfassung: A loud, high-energy plane-spotter's paradise that struggles with housekeeping consistency and charges five-star prices for four-star service.
Bewertet von @inyxng: I loved how modern and fresh everything felt here. The staff greeted me with drinks immediately, and the pool area is stunning. My room was super clean with a huge rainfall shower. It's the perfect spot if you want luxury close to the airport action.
