I used this affordable and well-run hotel as my base for a 10 day vacation in St Maarten. Convenient access to both a beach and the real world is part of what makes this hotel enjoyable. I see it as a good choice for independent travellers. It's a decent hotel, especially for the price you pay. You get a two-room... more

stayed for 1 night last week as we couldn't get our primary hotel for the day we arrived. I picked the hotel based on tripadvisor comments. this is a hidden gem. The unit we were in had a seperate living room kitchen area and then a completely seperate bedroom. ample space. Had great conversation with the owners and we discussed... more

If you are looking for a great place, look no more than the Turquoise Shell Inn. Your hosts Carter and Marcus are personable, professional, and very, very helpful. The location is great and the property is wonderful. The rooms are very, very clean and a pleasure to stay in. Parking is right on site and the beach is a stone's... more

I wanted to take my goddaughter someplace special for spring break this year. She is 16 and a junior in high school, and I knew I had to bribe her with a spectacular destination! Jointly, we decided on St. Maarten. We then went right to Trip Advisor and saw the glowing reviews about the Turquoise Shell Inn. So we booked... more

We just returned from a week on the island and can't say enough good things about our time there. The T Shell Inn is a charming small inn with wonderful service and lots of homey touches. Carter and Marcus were very helpful and went out of their way to help us have an enjoyable and comfortable stay- whether it was... more

My husband and I stayed here for one night (headed to Saba for a week long trip the next day), then for another two nights (2/9-2/11) on our return from Saba. We stayed on the French side in Jan 2006, but for this year, the same place was not an option. So I searched hotels high and low on Tripadvisor,... more

First let me start by saying that everything wonderful everyone has said about the TShell Inn is all true. Marcus and Carter are wonderful! I had the pleasure of interacting with them prior to our arrival and their attention and recommendations were on point (and we hadn't even arrived). One thing everyone should know so you don't make the same... more

A lovely piece of serenety in bustling Simpson Bay, we had a wonderful experience here. From check in - we were early and our bags were placed securely in the office so we could get out an play immediately - to check out - we needed an extra half hour , no problem! We reserved directly thru their web site... more

We booked this place on line and selected it because the rates were in our price range. It was difficult to find reasonable places to stay in St.Maarten. We were pleasantly greeted upon arrival and Carter and Marcus were always ready to help us and give advice on what to do and where to go. We felt comfortable right away.... more
