My nieces stayed at the house for a week and had a great time; the property is spacious, clean, and wonderfully located with an amazing view. We can recommend it to everyone.

"We have had the perfect holiday in this lovely, well maintained house, set in a nice tropical garden with a swimming pool, and part of a gated area. It is situated in a very quiet part of the island, much less build up than the south (dutch) part. It was ideal for the children, who could enjoy both the garden, and the nearby easy access to the sea (mostly for snorkeling, as there was little sand there, but with lots of fish to see in the rocky areas not far form the closest access). The house is decorated with taste, and very well equiped, but for us the view was the major asset, with the famous "Ile Pinel" right in front of the house and we were always looking forward to the meals taken on the terrasse! You will need to have a car to go to a proper sand beach - a few of the best ones are a couple of miles away- but this is not a problem, as all beaches are different on this island, and we felt like visiting a different one each time! There are also plenty of very good utility shops around, a nice and modern supermarket 1 mile away, and the famous "grand Case" restaurants are only 2 miles away! After 10 days, this really felt like home, and if we return to St Martin for another holiday (which we all hope), we will definitely go to the same place!"

"Staying at cul de sac was the best time I've ever spend since being back. The house is clean and well furnished with everything. The location is breath-taken and the kids love spending time in the pool which is always clean. Nothing beats getting up at dawn to open the wide doors and seeing the warming sun rising right before your eyes. Staying here made me realize how precious sint maarten really is. You do need a car to visit other places, but when you return to your little house on the beach side, all the business vanishes away. The surroundings is very quiet (besides my two kids). I had one downpoint, no english speaking channels on the television - all french. With such a wonderful, relaxing place, who needs television? I will return,and keep returning."
