My husband and I were approached on the street in Phillipsburg to scratch a scratch card to win a prize. We felt pressured to do it but we did. Of course they told us we won because as you know everyone does. At first they said I won $500 dollars. Then it turned into $500 dollars, an iPad or an i-phone and they promised us for a 30 minute timeshare speal we would be given the prize. We got to the resort and they immediately told us it would be 90 minutes. We said whoa whoa - we were told 30 minutes. So the initial guy lied to us. We also found out that we could win a 5 night stay at a jw Marriott. Once we heard that we knew that's what we were going g to receive. Long story short - after almost 2 hours we were finally able to to break free. They told us that we did if fact win the vacation. Here's the real kicker. We could pick from Tampa, Jacksonville or Alaska. Hmmmm - didn't Tampa and Jacksonville just get hit by a hurricane, so we picked Alaska only to find out that you can't go from May thru August because it's the blocked out time period. Unbelievable. I took the time to write this review to save future travelers to St. Marten to not fall for the same scam that we did. It was a total waste of time from such a beautiful island.
