IGY Marinas and Simpson Bay Marina proudly announce the completion of a new guest reception building, redefining the yachting experience for discerning clientele in St. Maarten, Dutch Caribbean. This cutting-edge facility elevates guest service and amenities to unprecedented levels, offering a luxurious and convenient haven from the moment of arrival.

The Simpson Bay Marina Yachting Oasis Awaits

The new guest reception building boasts a stunning blend of sophisticated design and unparalleled functionality:

Private Guest Reception: Dedicated guest reception areas ensure a seamless and private check-in process, setting the tone for an exceptional stay, and effortless charter guest arrival and departure experiences.

Large Modern Gym Facility: Boasting one of the newest and well-equipped gym facilities on the island – guests can stay active and maintain fitness routines during their stay.

Rooftop Bar and Outdoor Lounge: A rooftop oasis awaits guests, featuring a sparkling pool and expansive outdoor lounge, highlighted by breathtaking panoramic views of Simpson Bay.

Conference Room & Meeting Space: Perfect for briefings, brand launches, presentations, business and social events.
Spectacular Water Views and Elevated Levels of Service

Representing the latest in marina-integrated destination design technology – the entire guest reception building maximizes the stunning vistas of Simpson Bay, creating a truly unforgettable first impression. IGY’s commitment to excellence extends beyond the facility, but also by providing a complete “door-to-door” delivery of charter passengers and guests, ensuring a seamless and stress-free customer journey.

“The opening of the new guest reception building marks a significant investment in our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional service to our charter guests and owners,” said Brian Deher, Island Global Yachting. “This world-class facility further enhances the yachting experience in St. Maarten and offers a perfect venue for hosting a variety of events.”

Seamless Convenience, Endless Possibilities

The guest reception building goes beyond luxurious amenities. It offers a complete customer experience, streamlining guest arrival and departure logistics for ultimate convenience. Moreover, the versatile space transforms into a premier venue for hosting large indoor and outdoor events, meetings, and private gatherings.

IGY’s Commitment to Innovation

This state-of-the-art facility signifies IGY’s continued commitment to innovation and collaboration, marking IGY’s second successful project on the island with the award-winning St Maarten-based team of Architect Rick Eelman of Another ARD Production and GEM Construction B.V.

“The completion of the Simpson Bay Marina guest reception building marks a milestone in IGY’s ongoing commitment to elevate the yachting experience,” says Steve English, President of IGY Marinas. “This project is the first of many exciting initiatives on the horizon. We are dedicated to unveiling similar world-class marina facilities at our marinas in Miami and Cannes, further solidifying IGY’s position as the global leader in luxury marina development.”

Hurricane Recovery and Resilience

The new facility also signifies the completion of restoration activities at Simpson Bay Marina following the landfall of Hurricane Irma in 2017. The marina lost a significant portion of its docks which were subsequently rebuilt, as well as its landside facilities. The new guest reception building was designed and built to withstand Category 5 hurricanes, and with a particular focus on climate and coastal resiliency. “This has been a tremendous opportunity to Build Back Better and reimagine the appeal of Simpson Bay Marina – this prime regional location and renowned elevated level of amenities and services – has never been greater,” said Brian Deher.
