Nice and cozy ocean front studio with private terrace. Short walk to beaches.

I primarily booked this property for the high marks it received on cleanliness and it didn’t disappoint in the least. The only problem was the key to the sliding door is difficult to lock. It seems like it doesn’t catch and hold like it should. The ocean view was superb with the rhythmic cadence of lapping waves. It’s in an excellent quiet location within walking distance of 2 of Sint Maarten’s finest beaches including the World Famous Maho Beach.

Great location, 6 minute walk to Simpson bay beach, 10 minute walk to Maho beach, 15 minute walk to Maho village shopping, bars and restaurants. Felt safe with security booth to enter area. Great views from deck.Quiet area. Host was friendly and available as needed, quick communication. Air conditioning was good. Ceiling fan does not work and a cabinet needs new hinges. Could use another dish towel.

Having laundry was a bonus, owner helped me out when I requested something I needed to control mu pain. I would recommend this unit for a short stay to the Island.

The location was wonderful and the views were unbeatable however there were issues with having the bare minimum for our stay. The listing says full kitchen, however the lack of simple salt and pepper and cooking oil really made using the kitchen difficult and frustrating. We were cooking on a dry pan… and I refuse to stock a rental for a short visit to enjoy the kitchen we had hoped for to make some basic meals. The listing says there’s a washer and dryer, however there is no laundry detergent provided. This is absolutely not something I would purchase for our six day stay. I was upset to not be able to use this amenity and insane to ask guests to purchase detergent. Then don’t provide a machine. Similarly, we were only provided two rolls of toilet paper, even though I had requested more and was told more would be provided, they were not. It should be better communicated that you have to walk through the hosts balcony and that there are two dogs. The door between the two balconies is concerning as we could easily be locked in from the other side. Bella was responsive when I requested a new iron as the one in the room was not working.As noted in some other comments the sheets had some stains. I would have tossed them in the laundry machine should we have had detergent. Great spot to walk to nearby beaches but lacking basics to enjoy the stay.
