TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin Villa recommendation

We have a big anniversary coming up next June. Want a private villa. HAS to have a private pool, a/c in main living area and bedrooms and view of sunset. One bedroom only needed. Top price around $3000 a week... French or Dutch side, but sunset view is an absolute must. Does NOT have to have ocean access at all, but has to be ocean view. NOT interested in a high rise at all. Suggestions?

My Villa is out... it will be ready but have the sunrise view not a sunset. I have to ask what is big? I am finally returning next week, Will post pics.

Carol:

Have you considered Villa Paloma?? It is one of the Green Cay Villas, owned by Delphine Richard, on of the owners of Le Piment. https://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p864556a

I'm very familiar with Green Cay, stayed there lots of times, but NO sunset view from there.

Big ?? Not sure that figures into the equation.. As I said, we only need one bedroom.

Thinking she meant how big of an anniversary?

Casa Bocca in Beacon hill. It may not be a private pool. We are here now and the other units aren't rented out so it's been private for us.

Look online at REMAXislandpropertie.com they list a lot of big private villas in your price range. There office is in oyster Pond, very nice folks, we’ve been dealing with them since 2005 without any problems. You can view the villa and also see it on the map

Me and the wife were just talking about your request Carol. We stayed in a villa called Summer Winds on Dawn Beach up on the mountain (very easy drive) several years ago. The master bedroom had a sunset and ocean view just because how the villa was situated on the mountain. Now we’re not sure if it sustained any damage from Irma or if any else has built around it. We rented from REMAX in Dawn beach. I think this will fulfill all your needs. Go online and look it up. Now my wife said, been there done that and found BSV thanks to you and not going back! This advice is from years of renting just about every villa in and around Dawn Beach for many many years. Just our thoughts.

mbrott--I'm actually familiar with that villa, having visited there before. IF we were the only ones there, it would definitely suit. However, if anyone else was staying there, it would not work.

SXMFOX--thanks. Will check it out. We LOVE BSV, but want something a bit more private for this anniversary.

Check out Villa Namaste. Several other good choices in Pelican Key on VRBO.

Thanks! Have you stayed there before?

We are renting its sister villa, Incognito, in November. Jeannie from Shop N Drop says they are wonderful.....check with her.

OK, thanks!

We had it all to ourself so it was great. Ended up with the main house for just two of us. Nice to have security down the street.

For sure, it's a whole different experience if you are by yourself there.

Hi Guys,

Most of the villas mentioned i have recently stocked. They are all nice and the owners very accomodative. Now it is a matter of personal preference .

Hi. Thanks for the link. Will check it out. I think I have found where I want to stay, but it's not totally confirmed yet, so won't post it.. I'm going to wait until I can book air, which isn't for another month..

Look into logans run. Right next to la vista. We stayed there 3 weeks and already have it booked for next year.

Carol, Nothing looks exciting in Terres Basse? In June, should be reduced rates. Some of the villas there are unbelievable.

Sunset views from Terres Basse? I didn't think so.

Scubaman--sunset views from there in June??

Must it be in SXM? I know a place in AXA that fits the bill.

We were nakey nakey in the pool....until the pool boy showed up! OMG..ha ha...

Who painted the walls in the third bedroom? That is very cool.

Yikes! To each his own! I think it's kinda weird..

Not from that villa.

I have to agree. Could not imagine returning to that room after drinking. Yikes too.

Scubaman--ok, sunset view is a must..

To bad but I understand what that means. Logan run was great in every other way.

so glad you enjoyed it. This is a big anniversary and there are some things I am going to insist on.

I would too.

Carol, our villa, Villa Islandtude, is a TTOL sponsor and has the sunset and ocean view, oversize pool and spa, AC throughout, high speed internet, and meets your price point for up to 3 bedrooms, all with king size beds and ensuite bathrooms. We just returned and posted new photos that included the villa in Jeff Berger's EverythingSXM Facebook site.

Hi. We only need one bedroom and know that your villa is huge, so figured it would be way out of our price range. Will take a look. Thanks!

Carol...did you ever find your dream place?

Well, I don't know whether it is our 'dream place' or not, but we did book a villa above Happy Bay. It's not the lap of luxury but it does meet all the criteria in my original note. We will find out how it is next June..
