Paul & Carols — Hillside Guesthouse on Waymouth Hill
An accommodation on Mildrum Road near eco-retreats and wellness services.
Why Go
Paul & Carols on 15 Mildrum Road, Waymouth Hill, offers accommodation in one of St. Maarten's most tucked-away residential areas. Waymouth Hill sits in the elevated interior of the Dutch side, where the tropical vegetation is dense, the air is cooler than the coast, and the everyday sounds are birdsong rather than traffic. This is the St. Maarten that few tourists experience — the green, hilly interior where the island's rural character persists despite the development along the coasts. The Hillside Eco-Retreat SXM and Natural Wellness nearby signal the area's orientation toward nature and well-being.
The Experience
Waymouth Hill's character is defined by what it does not have: no beach bars, no cruise ships, no duty-free shopping. What it does have is green space, elevation, quiet, and the kind of natural environment that makes you sleep deeply and wake up refreshed. Paul & Carols operates within this context, offering a stay that prioritizes peace and natural surroundings. The Hillside Eco-Retreat nearby provides nature experiences and hiking opportunities. Natural Wellness offers health-focused services. For travelers who have already done the beaches and restaurants on previous visits and want to discover a different side of the island, the interior hills reveal St. Maarten's ecological dimension.
What to Try
Explore the Hillside Eco-Retreat SXM for nature walks and eco-experiences. Visit Natural Wellness for health and wellness services. Drive to the coast for beach days — the elevation means scenic drives with ocean views during the descent. Enjoy the quiet evenings and natural sounds of the interior hills. Use the hillside base for hiking the less-explored trails of the Dutch side.
Insider Tip
Waymouth Hill and the interior hills of St. Maarten are where the island's last remaining natural forests survive. Early morning walks in this area reveal birdlife, tropical plants, and views that the coastal tourists never see. The coolest temperatures on the island are found at these elevations, making afternoon naps with the windows open a genuine pleasure.
