TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin Quick notes:

Yup...golf course is in great shape because of the rain, The sidewalk on the Cheries side is , as mentioned, Is in visible disrepair from the street view and many shops on that side are empty (that was my view as I drove through). My impression is just that..MY impression . You may see things differently but I remember them as they were and driving through there just made me sad BECAUSE of what they were..this area is not owned by poor locals.and should be a tourist attraction..AND the fact two + years has passed
