We were 10 adults and 4 children (7 mos to 5 yrs). We hung by the pool, walked down to the beach, and went to both resort bars that are within walking distance for happy hours. There was really no reason to drive anywhere. A great island vacation! ##### Steven P. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Angela F. Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Lovely home The seaweed was out of control and we could nit use the beach at the house at all. I know this is no fault of the owner but i would have loved a heads up about the situation before we arrived. The house was perfect for what we needed, but more run down than the pictures. And I was shocked at the need to clise all metal storm shutters and doors when we left or went to bed for safety reasons. I had no idea the area was that dangerous. But in the end the restaurants were amazing as was our housekeeper. ![Oceans38, French side](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/80f60ee3-9176-469e-8024-d99930fa6d54-1751415571971.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Seaweed at our house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9c810fa2-28b3-4f54-b719-38ab62292679-1751415572478.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Seaweed at our house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5c967abd-94a9-405e-82aa-51c90602d3ea-1751415573357.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Beautiful view from deck of house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ff5a931c-19d7-4e5d-bb0d-12321e425e28-1751415572319.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Angela F. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nicole K. Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Horrible location The cleaning staff, Sharon, was very nice and helpful and showed up to let us into the property even though the owner had told her the wrong date. The owner was very rude when I called to ask questions about the property prior to our arrival and the property is more run down than pictures depict. There was a horrible sulfar smell from the seaweed on that side of the island and the beach was not usable, also due to the seaweed. Most of the popular restaurants and blue water beaches are at least a 20 minute drive from the house so having your own car is a must. The house itself was decent and accommodated our party of 14 well but they need to put some money back into updating certain aspects of the property especially the outdoor space . The hot tub is still broken, I thought this would have been fixed since it was mentioned in a previous review, and the columns around the pool are literally crumbling apart, which is a safety issue. If you are vacationing for peace and quiet and want to get away from traffic, this is a good location but if you want to enjoy nice beaches and walk to restaurants this is not the right spot for you. I would not stay here again. ![Crumbling pillars surrounding outdoor space.

Added this property to my favorites and hope to come back. There were 8 of us plus the small 2 y.o. child and everyone had a good time. Steps to the beach were no problem. Owner is very responsive to any issue. Housekeeping was good, everything was always cleaned and laundry was done, even had a fresh coconut juice one day. View is amazing and location is excellent, right on the border between french and dutch sides. Close to the Orient Beach, our favorite French restaurants and bar hangout. Pancake place next door is very good for either breakfast or dinner. Did our grocery shopping in the main store, a little further, but the selection and prices were better then any other store in vicinity. Property is perfect for small kids since the villa is completely gated from all sides. Bring your bugs and mosquito sprays and repellents as owner recommends - you will need them in the evening or at night. Enough of gated parking for couple of full size cars. We rented from the local company Leisure Car Rental and got free upgrade and had no problems. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. Place is large enough to accommodate 10-12 or even more people. Highly recommended! ##### Edgar V. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andria K. Mar 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent location on a great beach! This house has an excellent location on a great beach! We spent more time at this beach than any other because it was easy to walk to the house when you needed something. The beach was not crowded, calm, and beautiful. The water is very clear and the area in front of the house is very sandy and good for swimming. The house has a great set up for bedrooms and bathrooms, each room having it's own bathroom and shower is so nice. It's a spacious house and has everything you need. Our one disappointment was that the hot tub was not working, and looks like it hasn't been for awhile. There are definitely updates that need to be done to the house, but they don't get in the way of enjoying the wonderful spaces. We spent our mornings on the pool deck watching the sunrise over the ocean, down to the beach during the day, and back to the pool area to eat dinner, play cards, and watch the stars at night. ##### Andria K.

Aug 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Beautiful views with a bit of work it could be great. Pros: Check in process was easy. The house had a great layout and easy for entertaining. There were plenty of pool towels. The house felt secure. The dining room table had plenty of seating. 10 pool lounge chairs available (more than the 8 listed). Things I would want to know: The photos do not accurately reflect the current state of the property. New living room furniture (seats 6 – 8). Turn the alcove furniture around to make more seating. There is no outdoor table anymore (2 picnic table). This was an issue for us, as this was the main reason I booked it. We hired a private chef for the stay (on our own). Picnic tables are not comfortable for 2 hour dinners. The owner tried to resolve it once I noticed the previous review, but could not in time. The air-conditioning did not work in 2 of the 4 rooms upon arrival. Resolved the following day. Ceiling in the family room & living room leaked when it rained. Per the owner, this is being resolved in the next couple of weeks. The pool is deep (no shallow end). More like a lap pool. They have floats and we brought some and left them. Dishwashing detergent is provided not laundry detergent. The listing says maid service is daily, but once per our stay (5 days) – important to have laundry detergent. 2 local cell phones were provided (used our own data). Fridge was not stocked (fresh milk, fruit, soda, beer.) Wifi was unreliable (used personal data). Owner has stated this is resolved. The owner was easy to deal with & responsive ##### Jane M. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Bill A. Apr 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Beautiful Views But Needs Improvements This stay was a mixed bag for our group of 4 kids aged 6-15 and 5 adults. Our check in process was not smooth but the owner was apologetic and tried to make it right. And I feel for the owners because I am sure the issues are not so much neglect as not completing repairs after the hurricane. Still, the pictures do not reflect the current state of the home. It feels warn down. Pros The house is spacious with room for a big group. Direct beach access is a great feature. Views from the house and pool deck are beautiful. Master bedroom bed was quite comfortable. Clean, nice sheets and plenty of towels. Easy access to the JW Marriott for live music and the swim up bar (as well as Sunday brunch). Area felt quiet and safe. Cons Shower by the beach does not look like a tree and doesn’t function at all. Ceiling in the family room leaked when it rained. Hot tub is damaged; the heater and jets don’t work; numerous broken/danaged tiles by pool and stairs to beach. Pillars and wall at the front of the pool deck are damaged and there is a big pile of broken concrete pieces at the back of the pool deck. The pretty table and chaise lounge chairs from the pics are gone—cheap replacements and picnic tables. The caretaker didn’t start opening the house or cleaning until after check in time and arrived two hours before check out and started cleaning while we were trying to pack up and enjoy the last couple hours at the beach—it felt intrusive. ##### Bill A.

It’s perfectly located in a quiet area right on the beach, has staff in home as well as a cleaning woman who is the sweetest. Everything here is perfect. AC is phenomenal, the only small flaw is the WiFi doesn’t work so well and for streaming a live event with that many people in the home it really causes a challenge but besides that there’s bug spray a full bar and even a semi stocked fridge upon arrival! This is our second year here and will be back again ##### Sweet2Elite U. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mei Carla S.

Check-in was quick and easy. The Villa was very clean and our housekeeper, Tiana, was extremely thorough and sweet. All 5 rooms had AMAZING views. We used all the amenities without any issues. I definitely recommend this property when coming to SXM with a large party. ##### Mei Carla S. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven P.

Had plans to partake of island activities but everyone was happy just hanging out at our own pool and beach. Little grandsons lived the dragons (iguanas) ##### Steven P.

Feb 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Comfortable stay for large group Everything about our stay was easy, from check-in to the daily housekeeping. The housekeeper we had, Christiana, was lovely and went above and beyond for us, even helping with our BBQ and finding local restaurants from which we could order in. The villa is also quite large and fit all 13 of us, which is no small feat. All in all, it was a lovely stay. ##### Thi H. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Lawrence A., St Thomas, US Virgin Islands May 5, 2019 #### Ideal for large family gatherings Daily housekeeping was a huge bonus, and our host Sonal was always accommodating and responsive. The location of the house gave us easy access to the Dutch or French side of the island. The house was extremely clean and comfortable for our group of 8 adults and 9 kids ##### Lawrence A. Stayed 4 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Kim S. Apr 6, 2019 #### Beautiful Location! The inside of the house was great. The outside of the house was beat up pretty bad by Irma. The outdoor shower, roof, gutters, stairs to the beach, and most of the gardens were destroyed. We enjoyed our stay very much and Audry (one of the house keepers) was amazing. There are lots of stairs to the beach, but it didn't bother us. ##### Kim S. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue M. Feb 24, 2019 #### Wonderful Great home. Our family of 14 spent a week there. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place on the ocean that this is it. There are a lot of steps in the house so anyone with mobility issues might find it difficult especially with a baby just starting to walk who loved to climb them. But the view, house and surroundings are worth it! I wanted to bring Audrey the housekeeper home with us. Lovely lady. If I ever go to st Marteen again this would be my choice to stay at ##### Sue M. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wesley H. Jan 24, 2019 #### Wonderful Stay We had the Villa rented in January of 2018 and then Irma devastated the island. With the airport closed we had no choice but to cancel. Sonal, the owner was gracious enough to transfer our stay until last week. St. Maarten continues to recover, and you could witness that throughout your drive from the airport to the villa. It made my entire family appreciate the basic things that we have in the states and that we take for granted. The natives of the island are warm and greeted us upon entering every shop, grocery or restaurant with "thank you for coming to our island". That kindness was carried through to our beautiful housekeeper Audrey. She comes in every day, and would immediately come in to the home and find me to make sure that everything was ok. My grandsons even invited her to stay with us for dinner....they loved her. The Villa is large and well appointed. The pool and hot tub lovely. The views spectacular. We did have a problem with directions from the airport to the Villa. The roads are not well marked and I believe the signs that where there for Oyster Pond/The Westin prior to Irma are no longer there. We downloaded the off line map on google, and that helped immensely. We would absolutely stay in one of Sonal's properties in the future. ##### Wesley H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gemma C. Jun 3, 2018 #### Came after IRMA and loved it We loved the house,, the island is recovering, lots of restaurants. Friendly people all over SXM, many great deals to be had! We were a large group and every one of us enjoyed the views from our bedrooms in this house, we cannot wait to come back! ##### Gemma C.

We enjoyed our stay and will book again in the future. We've already recommended the home to family and friends. The house was in good repair. We did have a few mishaps that was resolved as quickly as they could resolve them. Some of it was do to island living. House keeper came everyday except Sunday. Could have been every other day would have been ok. Sonal was extremely friendly and did everything she said she would. She cares about those who stay at her property and wants to make their stay enjoyable. Thank You ##### Shelly D.
