White sand and blue seas.

One of the main reasons why tourists choose to come to our island is because of our beaches. If you look at the sites of St.Maarten and the magazines you'll see that the beaches a big topic is. On our 37 square mile island we have 37 beautiful beaches. We have so many beaches to choose from. It depends what kind of beach you are looking for. We have beaches with restaurants, beaches with all types of water sports, beaches that are safe for kids, beaches that are very private and a big deal, nude beaches. St.Maarten is one of the few places in the world that still has a natural beach (nude beach). This is a big deal for tourists because it's not allowed in a lot of countries and islands. A lot of tourists look for these natural beaches. This beach is a big deal for St.Maarten because it caters to a lot of our tourists especially the older tourists, which is important because of a lot of retired tourists need a place to go when their on pension and if they see that our island has this natural beach it will make choosing our island to vacation easier. It is important that we keep our beaches clean. There are many beach clean ups throughout the year that even tourists help! Our beaches don't really need to be promoted because this is the main thing the tourists come for, but if we do a little bit of promoting in those vacation brochures they will get a better idea of how nice are beaches are which can only be good for us. In my opinion promoting the beaches more would be a really good idea for our island. We have something good we should promote it!

Hotels on St.Maarten

A lot of people go to St.Maarten on vacation and of course these tourists need a place to stay. St.Maarten offers them so much from beach houses, to hotels and villas. We have more than 12 hotels on St.Maarten. We have hotels on the beach and hotels that are in the middle of the town, hotels that are from civilization and hotels that are in the middle of restaurants and clubs. The island has so many different things to offer. How to these hotels market their self to the tourist? Well these hotels have representatives that go out and promote the hotel. There are also these St.Maarten vacation magazines that you often find at book stores or airports that has all the hotels in it. The St.Maarten tourism bureau also promotes the hotels on St.Maarten. It is important that the hotels are as good as they are expected to be. The hotel service must be up to par to. I find it important for a hotel to promote itself to the rest of the countries because if the hotel looks attractive the tourist they will easier decide to come on vacation here. We should promote the hotels as much as possible to make finding a place to stay easier for the tourist and make sure that checking in goes quick and easy. St.Maarten is an island this is only focused on tourism so these are things we need to make sure we do.
