    Horny Toad is perfect for a low key get away, but close enough to the main roads to get anywhere on the island!

    Everything was perfect :) Maybe add a hook in the shower?

    Debbie and Doug were amazing hosts! Room was cleaned everyday, they even did the dishes for us which was unexpected. Parking was easy, and the beach was practically empty everyday which made it feel even more exclusive. Beach front beauty.

    Absolutely nothing. What you're not going to like is that you didn't have more time to spend there.

    You can't beat the location. Simpson Bay Beach is calm and has very few people. Debbie and Doug are amazing hosts. They make your stay very relaxing and peaceful. This was our second time there, and it did not disappoint. We can't wait to go back again!.

    The seafront location is 10/10 for my early morning and late evening swims. Kitchen was adequate for making full meals. Housekeeping kept the unit clean. Both private parking and the remote gate, facilitate renting a vehicle. The garden area was well-designed. Angela was an absolute sweetheart and stepped in as a capable host, with her high energy, effervescent persona and confidence-inspiring presence on the property as Philippe brushed past us on Tuesday. Thankfully, the weather cleared by Wednesday & the adventure continued. Thanks for a memorable visit =)

    The staff was extremely accommodating, and the beach was exceptional. We asked if we could drop bags early, and since our room was ready, we were able to put our bags in our room, and were able to check in early. Our flight the next day was later in the day, and they offered to let us hang at the hotel and beach until we were ready to catch our flight. There are lounge chairs just outside the rooms, which are 30 feet from the water. There are foot washes for each room to help keep sand out of rooms.

    I visited St. Maarten back in April and was lucky enough to find the Horny Toad Guest House. As I was traveling alone I was worried about safety and getting around. From the moment of my arrival, they met me at the gate to welcome me, helped me to my condo, and gave me all the info I would need for my stay. Everyone at the condos were so friendly and enjoyed happy hour in the evenings. The location was close enough to walk to the market and some restaurants. And anytime I needed a cab, they were always accommodating to call me one. The room is not fancy but has everything needed, and having the kitchen makes it so nice to keep a few groceries at hand. And the view from the balcony and the private beach area can't be beat, so peaceful with no crowds. My vacation was such a wonderful experience, and the Horny Toad played a big part of that.

    Debbie and Doug are great hosts and make this place a small paradise. The view of the beach from the terrace was amazing, even better than on the photos. From the atmosphere, one could easily understand why their guests are coming back.
