The Best Kept Secret in St. Maarten
|
The Pasanggrahan Royal Guest House is the epitome of charming elegance; it formerly being the Governor’s home, VIP guesthouse and royal residence and now the oldest and most authentic colonial style inn on St. Maarten.
|
|
Ideally located amidst lush tropical gardens in Philipsburg they provide such amenities of life as personal service, fans, air conditioners and cable TV in all of its 30 rooms, seaside dining, managers cocktails and the traditional afternoon tea.
|
|
A tropical oasis on a long sandy beach, the Pasanggrahan creates for you your own special environment reminiscent of a more gracious era.
Only a stroll away from duty free shopping, delightful restaurants, casinos, watersports and other activities, Pasanggrahan is in the midst of it all, yet peaceful and tranquil all on its own.
