The increase in rooms in the hotel industry in the French part is a flagrant and imperative necessity. At the end of December 2019, a little over 600 rooms will be available to visitors, and as soon as the Secret Saint-Martin Resort & Spa at Anse Marcel reopens, it will add 250 more rooms.
The number of rooms, including hotels, residences, guest houses, is 884. The projection for 2020 is 1167 rooms, according to data provided by the AHSM (Association of Hoteliers of Saint Martin). There are also villas, which have a portfolio of 451 rooms, and for which forecasts are also good. We must also add the boat cabins available in accommodation on the territory, as well as the large number of rooms available on Airbnb.
Despite all these offers, the gateway and contact for tour operators and airlines remains the hotels. For the AHSM, what is certain is the need to have more hotel rooms on Saint Martin and more aircraft seats, because currently there are around 80% of flights at the airport Juliana, compared to the year 2016. _RM
