Horny Toad Guesthouse

St-Martin & Sint Maarten


Completely rebuilt in 2018, this beachfront guesthouse still brims with character and conviviality. All eight apartment-style units sport full kitchens and a dining area facing the sea. Guests (called 'Toadies') gather nightly in a breezy pavilion to make friends over BYOB happy hour or to fire up the gas barbecues.
