The apartment complex was very conveniently located to everything as it is centered between the french and dutch borders. The Host was very helpful and kind. Alot of space for storing our things and safe property. Only downside was there was a minor bug problem, but overall good experience

I like the location for dinning options as well as grocery shopping easily within walking distance. Even more are being built right now. Jewels tries very hard to make your stay a good one. Would definitely stay there again. We stayed 2 weeks.

The owner/manager who lives on the premises is always readily available and helpful. The real advantage of Diamond Gem, so long as you have a room with a kitchenette, is the super well stocked Carrefour just across the road. For a supermarket it has great food, much of it imported from France. Expensive but very good.

Very clean and modern. Comfortable. No dining or other amenities nearby. Best to have a rental car if you stay here.

Good location to get around the island. Need a car though, limited food options nearby but 5-10 minute drive away. Main road very busy during morning and evening rush hours. If looking for a beach and dining a short walk away this is not it. Jules the owner or manager was excellent with getting anything you need and accommodate you any way he could. Thanks Jules

Well priced property. We had booked a single room but we switched to a 1 bedroom. Be careful in choosing this property. This is near town and grocery stores but beach and recreation is far and traffic in this area is very bad most of the time. No pool or other services are available.
Easy check in process. Host was very nice and made us feel at home.

The unit we stayed in was very clean and spacious and so comfortable. The inn’s location was quiet but with only a short drive you will arrive at many restaurants, shopping and beaches. The host was so friendly, helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend and we would definitely return.

I booked last minute and I didn't get the instructions to enter the property but the owner was very nice and he helped me with everything I asked. Even though the beach is not close, the property was one block from a main road where you could easily pick up a taxi or the public bus either to Marigot (french part) or Philipsburg (dutch part) and move around from there. Nice and confortable room, also near a supermarket. Would definitely stay there again!

Diamond Gem is a local apt-hotel in a residential area. No swanky lobby or grounds if you’re looking for that but it carries the charm of St Maarten. Clean room with kitchenette area and separate shower/bathroom. Air-conditioning worked nicely. Very comfy King-size bed. Fluffy towels. (Bring own personal toiletries like soap & shampoo.)
Arrival - communicated via Expedia app. Host - Jules James - arrived shortly after we messaged our arrival to let us in our room and get us sorted with WiFi, etc. Lovely warm welcome. Gave us information about local Carrefour supermarket and eateries (Bamboo House is a MUST … thanks for the suggestion, Jules!), as well as his direct contact info in case of any other needs. Would stay again.
