These were taken from 609, directly above 509, this first was taken off the front small corner porch from the master bedroom these two were taken from the main porch off the living area, I don't recall what year I took these, but it was a very, very dry April!

You also clear customs in the Bahamas before you board your plan, Iam hoping you do do this also in the new airport.
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

ah - you have to plan ahead for those, I am flying on AA and booked right at the 330 day mark or whatever that was, and could have purchased my Easter tickets around 550, but I was able to fly using FF miles, all four of us, on the flights I wanted JFK-SXM direct on April 7 and returning on 4/20 at 5:15 thru SJU.

We had internet in the rooms just fine, granted we paid for it, it was 60 for the week, and they give you a thing you plug into an outlet and then into your coputer, I think it was some sort of router or something, worked great. RE: the cats!! We had Momma and babies hanging with us at the pool for two weeks in April, they were cute, especiallythe black one with the brown tip on the tail! D

I'd be much more worried about gators than sharks in St. Maarten! the first time we went boating on the Indian River I had a blast, then I found out about gators in the inlets! Forget it, I won't ever get out of the boat!

"WHY DIDN'T THAT TV NETWORK AND THOSE GAYS IN NEW YORK GO AFTER JAMAICA...OR PAKISTAN...OR BOYCOTT THEIR OWN STATE OF NEW YORK", - well maybe because the attack didn't happen there, it happened on tiny st. martin, well actually, I think it happened on even tinier sint maarten???

Yes they are sharks, but I have never seen one while swimming or even snorkeling. But diving is another thing! I have gone diving once and my husband twice many years ago, and both times he saw sharks. So they are there! We also saw what looked like a 5 food Baracuda while on the Random Wind anchored off the beach at LaSamana! That thing looked mean!

funny story - overheard some chatter on the beach, and one couple was telling another couple - see those foundations, there used to be a fort there, I think Fort Louis (Luis)! Now, I don't know if they were dead serious and thought that was where the fort was that is in Marigot, or were joking because Luis is what wiped it out!

David - I tried this about a year ago and only got about 4 responses, needless to say, MSN shut it down because of inactivity! Can you say what your concerns are? We were down in November and didn't see any change good or bad since April.

Just got back last night, our first stop for lunch is always Peg Leg, but because of the crappy service we had last April, (problem was Shawn, the owners, and the other long time waitress, can't remember her name, sweet girl who just had a baby, were all off!!!! I think it was a Sunday, we almost walked out it was so bad.) This trip we made our first stop at Pineapple Petes, it was kind of

Pauline - look into avistar or riteway parking at JFK, and if you have AAA you get a discount also. Not sure which one it is, but its great. they bring you by bus to the airport, and are very quick, then when you get back to the airport, you call once you get your bags and only wait maybe 10 minutes, I think its like 14 a day. and they have your car pulled up front and ready for you.

This one is my favorite, its right outside the Towers entrance on the main road near the parking area of what were a few of the buildings! And in case of some language confusion!!

Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

808 is directly over the entrance, it has 3 balconies, 2 upstairs and one off the kitchen/living room. It just seemed like anytime we were in the room, it was direct sunlight, I love the penthouses, but what I don't like is the fact that there is no roof over the balconies.
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

The Towers is not on a beach at all, but you can see the ocean from some of the views, take a look at this link, these are some of my pictures, then go to other albums and there should be some recent with Towers pictures. here is another link for some pictures that will give you a good idea, but until you know your exact unit, it will be difficult Post Edited (11-03-04 09:59)
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

808 was all sun!! Now your making me think. because I own on one side (medical school), and my Mom owns on the lagoon/golf course side, I don't think you can ask for a specific unit, I think they just assign it. But I think 06-09 units have morning sun, and the 01-05 rooms have afternoon sun, but I probably have that reversed, maybe Spikes knows?
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

Moz, all the units at the Towers have balconys, my favorite one bedroom is unit 808, it is a penthouse and overlooks the ocean in the distance, it is huge, basically the higher the unit the better, the 8th floor is the highest, there is only a few bad views, but they can still be interesting, plus depending on the which side of the building, you could be blessed, on one side you get morning sun,

Here is my typical response to people interested in the Towers: if you have any questions, feel free to ask "The Towers at Mullet Bay, is in my opinion the best timeshare on the island, but I am biased since I own 2 weeks there! We have toured almost all of them and still prefer the location and layout of the Towers. It’s quiet, but close enough to all the action that you are not missin

I have an old brochure and its for Marriot's Mullet Bay Beach Resort, its old very old, it has pictures of the honeymooners walk going from the oceanside pool area over to the beach. Pt. Piourette wasn't even built yet, wooden deck at the oceanside pool and the bar was up and running at the edge overlooking the water. Here is a write up from the brochure: "The mood of Mullet B
