Top Location
Posted May 9, 2024 on HomeAwayLoved being beachfront in a location that's close to the action if you want it, yet down the beach enough to be private. Wally was so helpful and knowledgeable he should run the whole complex!

Exactly what we needed/wanted!
Posted Oct. 21, 2023 on HomeAwayRight on the ocean, great views, super weather, steps away from the boardwalk and shopping, super helpful staff with great recomendations. Everything about our week was superb!!

A slice of paradise
Posted Mar. 23, 2023 on HomeAwayMy wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property and the unit was perfect. We strolled into town each day and loved mingling with the locals. The market across the street was very convenient and their freshly baked breads were fabulous. Wally, the local contact was very nice and helpful. We will definitely be back someday.

Overall Great Experience
Posted Nov. 29, 2022 on HomeAwayProbably the most private villa on the property, at the end, so no one walking by your patio, private entrance and shower in the garden breezeway. Very comfortable, had everything we needed, and the owner’s information ahead of the stay gave us great insight into the area before we even got there. Wally the property manager was great and really made sure iur stay was perfect. Can’t wait to come back!

This place is Amazing.
Posted Nov. 6, 2022 on HomeAwayWe loved the Villa, it’s so comfortable and inviting. The villa is very quiet with a gorgeous beach view and just steps to the water. The location to anything you want to do is perfect. We will definitely be back.

Great Vacation
Posted Oct. 16, 2022 on HomeAwayOverall this is a great place to stay. The Villa is in a great location, right on the ocean, and a short walk to the boardwalk in Philipsburg. The only two issues were that the pool was not working properly during our stay, and the beach in front of the property is not cleaned like other areas of beach in Philipsburg. This was not a big deal for us, but is worth mentioning. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Hello Adam, thanks for your kind review. I'm sorry for the seaweed on the beach, it occasionally does happen - especially after rainstorms and floodings. After this episode we did asked staff to double the frequency of beach cleaning.
Re the pool, we discovered a leak and had to stop the pumps in order to fix it. When you'll be back at the villas you'll find everything ok (and a discount for the hassle)... All the best!

Not wonderful as rated in VRBO listings
Posted Oct. 7, 2022 on HomeAwayProperty manager was friendly. The property overall decor and aesthetics were not good and needed updating. The bathroom was the only room that seemed recently updated. The TV was difficult to operate and there was no help with it. The Wi-Fi worked well. The beachfront area was not clean with lots off seaweed. There were dogs barking throughout the night around the property. No umbrellas for outdated beach chairs. Thank goodness for other nearby beaches to visit.

Hello,
Thanks for taking time to review the property.
The whole villa was newly decorated just two years ago: new sofas, new kitchen and new appliances. It is EXACTLY how it appears in all the pictures published here on Vrbo.
The tv is a brand new smart tv-set, easy to use (no one previous guest has complained about it), in addition our manager Wally told me he tried several times to help you to make it function.
The seaweed is a seasonal issue, also because a recent tropical storm. But you saw with your eyes that our staff cleaned the beach twice during your seven days rental.
And lastly, we have umbrellas for our guest, all you had to do was to ask for. You didn’t.
I’m really sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay and quite disappointed about your unfair review but I’m absolutely confident it’s not about the property and the beach. I guess it’s more about you.

Brilliant choice for a holiday at St Maarten, right by the beach. We had a lovely holiday, by staying there.

Location, convenience and comfort
Posted Aug. 17, 2022 on HomeAwayWe couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay on St. Martin. The unit is roomy and comfortable and you can’t get any closer to the water. A short walk to Phillipsburg for food and drinks and convenient to other areas of the island. You’ll get a kick out of Wally the property manager. Wally is knowledgeable about the area and was attentive to our needs. The owner, Luca, makes sure that you have everything in the unit you will need for enjoying your stay.
