We have stayed at several Caribbean islands and this property was the best we have visited. You are situated on a hillside overlooking a bay on the Dutch side of the island with gorgeous sunrises and spectacular views. Larry was our host and was incredibly responsive to all our questions. Irene was our incredible on-site manager. Between the two the gated property, which would rival any multi star resort, was a fantastic find. While not right on the beach, you are overlooking a beach you can access with a short five minute drive. The property itself feels new enough that we had the impression of walking into a new condo. Sliding glass doors give access to outside with views from both bedrooms and the middle living space and the outside covered balcony spans all rooms. Irene lives onsite and was a key reason why our visit went so smoothly. She was accessible, responsive and helpful in making our first time visit to St Martin a spectacular one.
