We are not novice travelers nor are we new to St Maarten so we knew the risk and didn't stress over it. We took everything valuable with us in a couple of backpacks. Clothing, my curling iron, and make up was all they would have made off with had they chosen to steal our stuff. And while that would be inconvenient it wouldn't be life changing. My point is don't assume any car you reserve will have a trunk or a luggage cover regardless of what anyone says either on this board or at the rental agency when booking. And obviously this is not a risk we would have taken earlier in our trip as even at Orient you need some clothes some of the time lol.
