Welcome to my Website!

Hello, I'm Joyce Prince, and I would like to welcome you to my website PrincePersonal.com  / JoycePrince.com and (hopefully) soon personally welcome you to my Island.  We are now bringing together the three sections of our business into one central location so that we can best serve your needs, no matter how you visit St. Maarten; in a Villa, Timeshare, Yacht or Cruise ship.

Just to make it clear, this is my service, not a company with a fleet of vans and drivers.  I do the personal tours myself unless, as I explain below, I need assistance for a larger group

The Crystal Pineapple to Joyce Prince

The 2010 Crystal Pineapple Awards ceremony was hosted by the St. Maarten Hospitality and Trade Association (SHTA).

The 5th Annual SHTA Crystal Pineapple Awards recognize outstanding individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to move our Tourism product forward with their dedication, service or smiles.

The SHTA understands the importance of recognizing individuals in the industry and will therefore continue in its quest to acknowledge the people that make our tourism industry the success that it is, and who have demonstrated exceptional performance in their field in 2010.

“Tonight we recognize and celebrate individuals with the right stuff,” SHTA president Emil Lee said, adding that the association believes it is important to recognize and place on a pedestal the members of society who should become role models and inspiration for others to follow. The event featured 19 categories and 70 nominees.

According to Lee, every winner in the Programme, Hospitality, Community and Trade awards had chosen not to be content with mediocrity, but had chosen to be exceptional.

Among these “exceptional” winners, as Hospitality Manager of the Year: Joyce Prince of Joyce Prince Tours

Island News

When food geek Alton Brown, Food Network’s host of Good Eats, Iron Chef America and Feasting on Asphalt, sails into St. Maarten you know that something’s cooking, and indeed there is.

Alton, with his production and film team, sailed the Caribbean in search of Good Eats, in the form of local cuisine, for his Food Network series Feasting on Waves.

And when Alton and his crew anchored in St. Maarten, where did they turn for a local expert, guide and driver? They called upon St. Maarten’s local businesswoman Joyce Prince, of Joyce Prince Tours, of course.

In a brief conversation below Fort Louis and near the Marigot Marketplace on a busy Saturday morning, Alton commented about Joyce that she was a remarkable woman, very knowledgeable about her island and the local cuisine.

Watch your local listings for a rebroadcast of the four-episode series,  which the Food Network described as “Think Pirates of the Caribbean meet Jacques Cousteau meets Alton Brown”, as Alton explores the culture and life of food above, below and around the Caribbean.

And our congratulations to Joyce Prince.

Prince Personal Services

Prince Personal Car Rentals

I am very happy to make a new service available.

When we meet for your tour, you can make a free call back home at no additional charge.  Avoid the Blue Credit Card Phones, as they can be VERY expensive.

My  Personal Tour for you and your family and/or friends will move at the pace you desire. We'll stop when you are ready to stop, or linger  a bit longer if you want to spend more time at a special spot. If you're interested in Maho Beach, click here.

We can custom plan an itinerary to make the most of your interests and time or we can just go with the wind.

Prince Personal Services is here to take care of the little things that can turn your trip into a vacation that you will remember forever.

We offer such services as making activity reservations, property management, baby-sitting, cell phone rental, hair braiding, restaurant reservations, personal chef, off season storage for timeshare owners,  and much more.

If you are going to be on the island and you need something, most anything, we can probably provide it for you. <more>

Prince Personal Rental Car has a fleet of clean, new (and young) cars and vans.

The cars are new, or nearly, and the price is right, but it is our Personal service that makes us the best deal on the island.

Ask about a discount on a cell phone rental or other services during your stay.

We are really geared towards weekly and multi-day rentals, but contact us and let us see what we can do for your special requirements. <more>

Little PierLook at my new online photo album filled (well, not just yet, but you could help) with pictures from recent tours that my new friends (like you) have enjoyed.

 

Obviously under construction!

Here you will find links to my friends and also links to important island information.

We will also present links to island news, where appropriate.

Current Island Weather:

Click for Juliana Airport, St. Maartin Forecast 

Don't worry too much when the forecast says even 60% chance of showers, as that is usually early in the morning or in the evening and usually lasts for only minutes.

When you are on your tour, ask to see my new selection of 10,000 stich embroidered shirts, available for purchase.

Mention that you saw this and receive $5 off your order of shirt(s).

I also have a few hats and other items, while supplies last.

I have maintained low prices for the products, and 10% of any profits will be donated to the Youth Program at the local Zion Methodist Church.
