St. Maarten Private Eye

The beaches here are open and public to all, regardless of where you live in the world.

I agree totally that Sucksit should provide parking space and easy access to locals and non hotel guests. But as to wether they have to do so is up to the government to insist upon in the planning permit process. I heard pretty much the same as Voodoo, that there would be some spaces not too far from the beach and maybe more further up the valley.

Consider too that this is a 310 room hotel with 100 condos attached. How do you go about reserving parking spaces for locals? It's going to become one of those pot luck things I suspect, and if the hotel wanted to limit the spaces then they just fill them with rental cars.

Does anyone know whats in the plans?
