Beautiful place. You feels energized every morning waking up and looking at such amazing views. Away from the town, but closed enough to enjoy great restaurants and the beauty of the Dutch side. Keep in mind that you need a car. You feel safe in the neighborhood. Excellent communication with the owner and the staff.

This perfectly located home has the most magnificent sunset view from the superbly situated deck. We enjoyed every minute of our 11 day stay. The pool was only a couple of steps away and several beaches reachable within minutes by car. Supermarkets, bars and restaurants are also nearby. Only thing lacking was a dishwasher. Unfortunately the home wifi didn't work and the work around was unsatisfactory in performance. All in all we had a fantastic stay and can recommend renting this property to anyone wanting to visit St Maarten

The Villa has amazing views overlooking the beautiful ocean and gardens that surround it. It is comfortable , spacious , clean, and has a well stocked kitchen area. Constance helped us with any and all questions concerning the island, shopping, beaches, etc. The area is nice and quiet a night, with only the sounds of the waves hitting the walls in front of the villa complex. There are plenty of restaurants and markets close by and even a casino if you are feeling lucky. Overall a beautiful experience, and a place I would highly recommend.

This villa may be the best location on the whole island! My wife and I stayed here for 6 days during our honeymoon and we couldn't be happier with our decision to stay at Gene's villa. It is conveniently located in the same district as all the resorts walking distance from all the restaurants and amenities you could want, but offers an incredibly private and secluded experience! With the beautiful views from every room of the house, a swimming pool that felt like it was all ours at the bottom of the steps, cool layered terraces for sunbathing, and the gorgeous surrounding gardens it felt like we were at a five star resort! All while being able to cook some of our own meals in the well stocked kitchen and avoid the crowds and tourists. We explored the entirety of the island during our stay and felt like we were really in the best location at Gene's. Only 15 minutes from the airport so you can get in and get home easily. We could walk or drive to meals and events conveniently, the neighborhood felt super safe we walked around at all hours, and this end of the island somehow survived the hurricanes with almost no damage. The villa also faces west so you get a beautiful sunset view right from your residence every night! When we weren't out exploring we spent most of our time sitting on the shady porch overlooking the pool and ocean. When you put your feet up there you won't want to move any farther than the kitchen to refill your drink! This is the kind of place I almost hate to review because I want it to stay a secret so we can book it for our next trip. But alas its only fair that all of you get to enjoy it too. Book this villa for your next trip to the friendly island! You will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful time at this property. The accommodations were quite comfortable. It was absolutely breathtaking. Constance the house keeper took very good care of us. Hope to go back. I did realize something during my stay there...when I books these 3 weeks it asked how many guests would be staying and charge me accordingly. However, I believe I was charge for 4 people for the full 3 weeks when, and this is my own fault, but there was 4 people there for 2 of the three weeks and only 2 people for the last week. Thanks. Had a great time.

Gene’s villa was fantastic. The views from the deck were incredible and we would watch the waves crash against the rocks sending water 20-30 feet high almost every night. The location of the villa was perfect as well. We would get late dinners around Simpson Bay, then work our way back to house while stopping at the casino and piano bar for drinks and fun. Everything was within walking distance but renting a car was the right way to do it. The villa is centrally located so that you can drive to many beautiful beaches quickly. There are also beaches and beach bars only a couple hundred yards from the villa. This was our first time to Sint Maarten and we have already booked our vacation with Gene for 2019. Cannot wait to return!

St Maarten was Severely hit By Irma, but this area was Quickly recovered And the nature is Beautifull as ever, as is the view over the sea from the shady terras!

The picture is perfect. Your view is incredible and Constantine, the caretaker of this home, does deliver fresh flowers to fill the vases when she comes in. That was just so over the top, but the grounds around these units have incredible landscaping also. We were not lacking for anything on this trip, and considering so soon after Irma, that's saying a lot. The covered porch was used a lot, and the size of the unit was perfect. We did find the automatic shades upstairs, when closed, really helped cool the unit, and the ceiling fans helped also. As we walked every morning, we appreciated having a washer and dryer right there. I would book this place in a SXM minute the next time we are coming to the friendly island.

Everything was as promised!

We just returned from our stay on St Maarten and could not have chosen a better villa! From the start of communicating with Gene to the end, everything was so easy. I stayed here with my husband and our two teenage boys, plenty of room to spread out. However we all seemed to be outside on the covered deck 90% of the time. The view of the ocean, access to the pool and breeze just keeps you there. If you are looking for high-end finishes this may not be the place for you. But if want a laid back beachy feel where you can relax and put your feet up, this is the place. The condo has everything you could possibly need, plus Constance who keeps the villa immaculate. There are restaurants and bars within walking distance as well as a grocery store. I highly recommend this villa and will definitely stay here again when we return.
