The hype
Modern and chic with killer views, but the food is inconsistent and the 'luxury' feel sometimes wobbles.
Sonesta Ocean Point Resort All Inclusive, Adults
$500-800/ noite
Reservar se You want a front-row seat to the world's most famous airport landing strip without sacrificing an adults-only infinity pool cocktail.
Por Que As Pessoas Adoram
- Unbeatable plane-spotting views from your balcony
- Access to two resorts (stay here, play at Maho next door)
- Butler service in top-tier suites that actually delivers
Resumo Rápido: A sleek, cliffside glass box that trades absolute quiet for adrenaline-pumping aviation views and a lively social scene.
Revisado por @travelswithbrandy: I just got back from a sisters' trip here and it was a solid 10/10. The swim-out suite was my favorite part—waking up to that ocean view is unbeatable. Service was amazing, and even though it shares grounds with a family resort, the adults-only areas felt totally private.

FAQ e dicas ocultas
Tudo o que você realmente quer saber antes de reservar.
Is the plane noise unbearable?
It's loud but intermittent. Most guests find it thrilling, but it stops around 9-10 PM when the airport closes.
Is there a resort fee?
No explicit daily resort fee on top of the all-inclusive rate, but 'taxes and service fees' are bundled into your booking cost.
Can I use the facilities next door?
Yes, you have full access to Sonesta Maho Beach Resort (pools, casino, restaurants), but they cannot use Ocean Point facilities.
Is the beach private?
No. The resort sits on a cliff. You have a man-made sandy area, but the actual ocean access is via the public Maho Beach next door.
Are the pools heated?
No, and some guests find them a bit chilly depending on the season.
Is it truly adults-only?
Yes, Ocean Point is 18+, but you will see kids if you cross over to the Maho side for dinner or casino.

Walk to Mullet Bay Beach (10-15 mins) for a much better swim than Maho Beach.
