Overlooking the entire Simpson Bay beach, the comfortable 2150 sq. feet apartment is equipped with everything a visitor might need. The long list of our luxurious amenities is shown below. Guests are welcome with a drink. Selection of drinks can be found in the fridge and in our free mini bar. A great selection of restaurants can be found within convenient walking distance. To name a few: Skip Jack - local fisherman's restaurant; Bamboo - amazing sushi and more; Top Carrot - vegetarian and healthy meals; Avantika - very elegant place with Thai cuisine; Sale & Pepe - great Italian place; Toppers - American cuisine; Yacht Club - a great place to watch boats coming into lagoon and drink; Pizza Italy - another Italian cuisine; Palapa Grill - known for great steaks and more; Atlantico - an amazing bakery Some restaurants can even be accessed without putting your shoes on. That includes Karakter, Mary's boon and El Zafiro. They can be enjoyed right on the beach. The building itself was finished in 2014 after a few years of planning. It was designed and built by a doctor who owned the property. The building is so well made that even with hurricane Irma we had minimal damage. We had lots of decorative damages but luckily nothing major. Simpson Bay Area is a good place to be. It is a nice combination of tourism and local culture. It used to be a fisherman's village and it still holds some of that charm. It is easy to walk to restaurants and shops so people do not need to rent a car to go to places. But at the same time when you are in the apartment or on the beach you are completely away from any outside world.

There were four of us, two adult adults and two teenagers. There was plenty of space for everybody. This rental was amazing. Pictures are accurate, but don’t do the place justice as the view is fantastic. And having the beach outside of your door is just chef’s kiss. Arrival and departure instructions were spot on. The property manager was very easy to connect with. The property was also very convenient to the main airport. The property felt very safe and secure. The elevator was super helpful as the entry was on the third floor. There was ample safe parking (consider renting a small vehicle as the parking lot is small but adequate). Property is walkable to some fantastic restaurants and a small convenience store. We would definitely rent here again. ##### Jori M. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James W.

The private steps down to the beach were an added bonus. Simona was a great host. We had one snafu with a grocery order that she jumped in and resolved in less than a day.

It was in a perfect location and the pictures are exactly how the condo looks. The property manager Simona, was very pleasant and helped us when needed. It’s a perfect distance from the airport where we could see the planes come into Maho beach. It was also very nice to have drinks in the fridge when we arrived. They also let us take a look at the penthouse which we just might use our next visit! The ocean was a bit rough so we didn’t get to utilize the kayaks but those, and beach chairs, are available for use. The elevator wasn’t working the week we were there but being in the 3rd floor it helped work off all the amazing food we had on the island. We will definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful up-to date condo. ##### Diane B. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy H.

If you have any hesitation, don't. The view, the terrace, the location, the comfort and usability of the space, and the bed- so, so, so comfortable. You can also walk straight down a staircase directly from your terrace to the beach. We walked to restaurants most days and felt safe doing so, but we also had a rental car to see the island. You have a designated parking spot in a gated space, if safety is a concern for you. Absolutely loved our stay and communication with the owner was awesome! ##### carla l.

In fact I extended it for 2 more weeks than I had originally planned. The condo is well appointed, and had everything I needed. I spend most of the time outside on the deck starting with my morning tea and ending watching the sunset. It was very conveniently located to Mary's Boon and Karakter beach bars. I only had to drive occasionally during my stay there. When I return, I will definitely stay there again. ##### CHARLES M.

Had a wonderful time. Even better in person than in pictures. Simona was easy to communicate with and always available to help. Property was secure with everything provided that one might need. Will stay again! ##### Nikolay M. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nilesh P.

There was plenty of room and things to do for my travel party which included my wife , in laws and young children. The outdoor patio was an oasis and worth it alone but the beach was also beautiful and private and my boys enjoyed playing in the sand and water. I’d definitely recommend the property and look forward to returning someday. ##### ERIC R. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jayme S. Apr 12, 2019 #### Spring Break 2019 We were a group of 14 that rented both the penthouse and the neighboring 2 bedroom unit for 2 weeks; amazing stay in Simpson Bay. The apartments were very spacious and well equipped with everything we needed for our large group. We loved getting up to watch the sunrise right from our lanai and watch the sunset at the same spot. The views are amazing and watching the sailboats and yachts everyday too was fun! Everything was really spectacular and we hope to be able to stay here again! ##### Jayme S.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Le Papillon. The unit is perfect and the little touches provided by Simona are wonderful. The beach is beautiful and almost private. The airport, restaurants and supermarkets are all within 5 minutes. Simona is very responsive and a pleasure to deal with. I couldn’t recommend it more highly! ##### DAVID G.
