The Atrium is situated on the beach in Simpson Bay, St. Maarten. The rooms are clean and very tropical. The balcony is spacious and comfortable for a couple or a family gathering. It is convenient to restaurants, casinos, bars, water activities, whatever you're looking for. The staff takes care of you as if you're a "special" guest. It's what I call "Style." -Trip Advisor User, 2019
