Close to the International Airport, the Maho area's most famous attraction is the beach at the end of the runway. Nowhere else in the world are you able to witness take-off and landing of Jumbo-jets as closely as here, all while sipping on a tropical cocktail. The photos published here have not been “photo-shopped”, but give a precise impression. No wonder that aviation fans from around the world rate St. Maarten's airport with the Driftwood Boat Bar at the small strip of Maho Beach as their number one “plane spotting” destination!
Maho Village is a destination within a destination; only minutes away from the International Airport, the area is one of the entertainment centers of Sint Maarten.
The Sonesta Maho Beach Resort is the anchor resort of this district. Maho Village is very popular with both island residents and visitors. There is the large Casino Royale as the central attraction and just a short stroll down the road the Dunes Casino with a large selection of slots and now table games as well. Maho Village is convenient for visitors who would like to try two gaming locations in one neighborhood.
Many shops stay open until 11pm, many bars, restaurants, nightclubs are all within easy walking distance.
