Maho Bay is a city in Sint Maarten.
background
Maho Bay is right at the beginning (or end) of the airport runway. On the sea side is the Maho Baai. This is followed by Mullet Beach to the west. The Mullet Baai can be found on the lagoon side. The tourist center is the Maho Village with several hotels, a shopping arcade with 40 boutiques and a supermarket, as well as 17 restaurants. Most shops are open until 11 p.m. With the acquisition of this facility by the Sonesta Group, US $ 5 million was spent on renovation projects.
The 600-room Mullet Bay Resort of the SunResorts Group, which also includes 263 apartments, was built on 70 hectares and was badly damaged by hurricanes Luis and Marylin in 1995. For eleven years, lawyers from the SunResorts Group and the Mullet Bay Apartments Association (MBAA) fought a lawsuit over the rebuilding of the entire property. It was only in August 2006 that a contract could be negotiated in which the apartment owners give up their ownership claims in exchange for high severance payments. The way is now clear for the demolition and reconstruction of the buildings on the site of the former Mullet Bay Resort.
beaches
- Maho Bay. Popular beach at the end of the airfield with showers. There are hotels, restaurants, shops and parking lots nearby. Maho Beach parking garage costs US $ 2 for 12 hours.
- Mullet Bay. A deep, shallow bay with a marina on the lagoon side. The entire complex, along with the Mullet Bay Resort, was destroyed by hurricanes Luis and Marylin.
- Mullet Beach. The sea side, like Maho Bay a popular beach, borders the golf course to the south. White sandy beach with shady palm trees. Since the Mullet Bay Hotel was closed, it has become much quieter there. With northerly winds surfers cavort in the bay.
