Even though we've been enjoying our winter living down on the South Carolina coast this winter, we still haven't had a nice Caribbean luxury vacation in a while! So, we looked at our calendar for the year to see what kind of great vacation we could fit into our schedule. Since we're coming back to the Myrtle Beach area beginning in December, we decided to take a nice break before hand and visit one of our favorite spots: St. Maarten (Sint Maarten is the Dutch side, and Saint Martin is the French side - same island!).

It turns out that we are going to try two different resorts, and of course we will report back to all of you afterwards. For our first week, November 7-14, we will be staying at the Oyster Bay Beach Resort, and for the second week, November 14-21, we will be at Divi Little Bay Beach. Both are absolutely gorgeous resorts! You can check them out at the resort registry and see for yourself the places we'll be staying. Click here to visit our Resort Registry. When the window opens up, you will be prompted for a Login Name and Password. Simply type "resort" for your login name, and "lookfor" for your password.

Then, at the drop-down menu, scroll down and choose "St. Maarten" and click the "Search" button.

You'll now see a list of the available resorts in St. Maarten that are part of our network. Go ahead and check out Divi Little Bay Beach and the Oyster Bay Beach Resort! And, if you decide to join our luxury vacation travel membership and book a vacation in St. Maarten while we are there, please look us up at the resorts! We would love to meet you! Since it will be somewhat of a working vacation, we'll have our computer with us and will be checking emails as well - so we really would love to hear from you and get together while we're there.

By the way, if you are wondering what some of the differences are between Dutch Sint Maarten and French Saint Martin, I invite you to read this article that was recently published at eZineArticles.com called "Your St. Martin Vacation - Or is that Your Sint Maarten Vacation? Which Way to Go?" It's brief, but will give you a few of the primary differences that we have noticed. Click Here to Read - and Enjoy!

Of course November is a few months away, but we wanted to share our plans with you now. Thanks for reading, and we hope to see you and meet you soon!
