Sonesta Maho Beach Resort Unveils Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck | News
Sonesta Maho Beach Resort, Casino & Spa is proud to introduce the Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck, a groundbreaking addition that redefines the traditional all-inclusive resort experience. The new rooftop environment spans 59,000 square feet and brings together entertainment, adventure and social programming in a dynamic open-air environment.
Positioned as the only all-inclusive Caribbean resort, the Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck offers a full rooftop entertainment and adventure deck integrated into the guest experience. It represents a category-defining innovation within the all-inclusive space.
Phase one of the Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck, expected to open June 1, 2026, will debut with a wide range of activities and programs designed to promote connection. Guests can enjoy mini golf, rock climbing, a dedicated children’s playground, multi-sport simulators, a rooftop running track and an open plaza with a stage and flexible event space. The rooftop hosts a changing program of entertainment including live music, family game shows, movie nights and interactive challenges, creating an energetic hub of activity from morning to night.
Unlike many entertainment experiences that are typically offered as paid add-ons at resorts, all Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck experiences are fully included with the all-inclusive stay, providing added value while enhancing the overall guest journey. The concept responds to growing traveler demand for experiential, activity-driven resorts that go beyond traditional beach offerings that families can enjoy together.
“The Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck reimagines what an all-inclusive resort can be. By bringing together entertainment, adventure and social experiences in one elevated space, we are creating a destination within a destination – something guests simply won’t find anywhere else in the Caribbean,” said Saro Spadaro, president and CEO of The Maho Group.
Future development plans include a Phase Two expansion in 2027, with additional thrilling experiences including zip lines and FlowRider surf simulators, further enhancing the Sky Deck as one of the most distinctive resort attractions in the Caribbean.
With the addition of the Pelican’s Nest Sky Deck, Sonesta Maho Beach Resort continues to expand its appeal among families, couples, groups and active travelers looking for more than the traditional beach vacation. The elevated location reinforces the resort’s position as St. Maarten’s most dynamic all-inclusive destination, where the beach draws guests in and the experience creates lasting memories long after sunset.
