      Beachfront Villa LAVINIA #9 on Great Bay

      SHOWN FARES ARE ONLY AVERAGE! ASK OWNER for a actual rate for your stay, customize your timeframe and real expense!

      VILLA LAVINIA #9 is on the east edge of 'The Villas on Great Bay' complex, directly on the beach of Philipsburg, dutch capital of St.Maarten. We are a we are a small gated property with all night security guard.
      We sit on a lovely beach, infinity beachfront swimming pool and breath-taking ocean views. This complex with on-site management service is the perfect place to relax around the pool or to just lounge on your private lanai or elevated deck overlooking our beautiful beach.

      Unique of its kind, Villa Lavinia #9 is on the west corner of the complex, it means no one need to walk in front of your lanai, privacy and peace guaranteed.

      On the ground floor: terrace on the beach with wooden floor, a partially shaded lanai to enjoy meals and drinks in front of the ocean and a small side garden with hot water outdoor shower (it's the only villa of the complex so featured) and a gas barbecue; inside there's a spacious living room with sofas and armchairs, flat 52" Smart Tv with HBO. A comfortable queen sofa bed adds 2 sleeping places. Two steps lead to the dining area with a big round table and four chairs. Finally a brand new kitchen fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, a big fridge with ice maker, microwave, coffee machine and blender. Recently we fully re-stocked with dinner ware, cooking supplies and bar accessories. For guest convenience there is also a half bathroom.

      On the upper floor: one ocean bedroom (queen bed) with private deck over the beach, one garden bedroom (king bed, ocean side view), each one with modern bathroom renovated with walk in shower. Basic soap, toilet paper, towels and hairdryer provided. Each bedroom is equipped with ceiling fans, Smart Tv and air-conditioning unit.
      Beach towels are also provided.

      Getting Around:

      The Villas on Great Bay complex is on the west side of Great Bay Beach. Few steps away you can find shops, fine restaurant and casinos. All these in the newly renovated areas of Front Street, and the new 'Promenade', the beach boardwalk.

      Just around the corner are two small grocery stores for convenience shopping and they will carry your purchases to your villa. There are many supermarkets to choose from if you choose to dine at home, but St. Maarten is the gourmet capital of the Caribbean, with 245 restaurants to choose from, ranging from the totally casual to top-of-the-line gourmet dining.

      There are 2 ATM's within walking distance from the Villas, 770 meters or 1/2 mile, that accept most credit and debit cards. Cash is dispensed in US Dollars or Guilders on the Dutch side and Euros or US Dollars on the French side. A tip... Notify your bank that you will be using your credit/debit card in Dutch St. Maarten/French St. Martin before you leave home. This will prevent your card from being blocked by your bank for security reasons.

      Remember we can help you with recommendations and reservations, and also arrange a car rental for you, if you wish, to explore the rest of the island, including the charming French side, and the 37 gorgeous beaches the island has to offer. We would also be happy to arrange activities and excursions for you, such as a day sail to a desert island with lunch and drinks included. If you want a quieter, stay-at-home sort of holiday, our lovely infinity pool and patios right on the beach are the perfect place to park yourself and read a good book.

      Wally, our on-site property managers is ready to provide assistance, recommendations, car rental and directions.

      Loved 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!

      A slice of paradise
      My 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
      Probably 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!

      We 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
      Overall 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.

      Not wonderful as rated in VRBO listings
      Property 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.

      Location, convenience and comfort
      We 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.
