Wonderful Cul de Sac Stay!

Beautiful property, exactly like the pictures! Kevin and Nina were wonderful managers, very responsive to everything we needed. They even loaned us tv ability to watch the Suoer Bowl. The house itself is wonderful, we sat out on the spacious deck every evening….barely ever sitting inside. Pool was great, used the grill, and the house was stocked with all we needed, even a drying rack and Bluetooth speaker! We hope to rent here again in this very safe and beautiful area!

A week at Villa Ocean

I cannot say enough about Villa Ocean, and the wonderful and kind hosts we had in Melissa, Nina, and Kevin. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. The property is stunning with beautiful views, and we felt right at home. Everything we needed was within a 10-minute drive, although we did venture to other parts of the island as well. Beautiful beaches and delicious restaurants nearby. We can't wait to go back and rent one of the properties offered by our hosts next year. From start to finish, this was one of the most seamless, best vacations we have ever been on. Thank you, Melissa, Nina, and Kevin!!

Amazing trip!

Our stay was nothing short of amazing. The house was very clean, well furnished and in a perfect location to enjoy everything the French Side has to offer. The outdoor area was lovely to enjoy morning coffee or drinks in the evening. Kayaking to Pinel Island located right across the bay was such a fun experience (we opted to do this twice!) and Grand Case restaurants were delicious. I would highly recommend the concierge service that the villa offers, this service made our trip less stressful and the collaboration to customize it to our interests tailored every recommendation to be exactly what we were looking for! My husband and I cannot wait to return to St. Martin and Villa Ocean. Melissa, Nina and Kevin a heartfelt thank you again for the amazing service and memorable stay!

Cul de Sac Chill

My husband and I REALLY needed a vacation, and while sometimes it takes us at least a day to get comfortable and acclimated, that was not the case this time. We were staying for seven days, and wanted to get to the island as early as possible, to maximize our time, so we took the first flight out of NY arriving about 10a. By the time we got our luggage, got through passport control, went to the grocery store and made it to the Villa. This was the perfect location, close enough to “town” with great restaurants and more and short ferry ride to Pinel Island.This place is a true gem! The décor is simple, yet very modern. The layout of an open floor plan with the sliding open patio doors is perfect for conversation while cooking and relaxing. It was only the two of us, so we only slept in the Master bedroom which was soooo comfortable making it hard to get out of bed everyday. While the indoor décor was nice, it was outside that became our home away from home. We had breakfast on the shaded porch almost everyday, and we went from the porch, to the sundeck, to the pool ….and repeat for days!!! On the day we decided to venture out and try out our kayaking skills the wind was a little high and the water not so calm, BUT we had a BLAST anyway! We visited most of the restaurant recommendations of the hosts and were very pleased. Even the pizza delivery was great. The hosts Kevin, Nina & Melissa were awesome! I can’t say enough about them. From before we arrived to our very last day

Great location and house!

Villa Ocean was a great property to stay at that is close to a lot of different beaches and restaurants. The outdoor area is great with the pool and chairs/table to eat at. We took the kayaks to Pinel Island which is about 15min away and a very pretty ride. Nina was a great host and very helpful whenever we needed it!

Picture perfect - best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in

The stay here was absolutely wonderful for my family of five. It was so clean and came stocked with many of the essentials we needed to get started. The view is incredible and we loved sitting on the deck drinking coffee every morning. The kayaks were so nice to have and we made the trek to Pinel and stayed on the beach and ate there one day and snorkeled. We also did a boat day with captain jo boat charter one day and it was a blast. Also check out the Loterie for zip lining and an adventure in the trees- lots of wildlife to see. We saw several monkeys and iguanas and birds. Couldn’t have asked for better hosts in Kevin and Nina. Highly recommend!

Best VRBO ever!

This was the best vacation rental ever! The pictures don’t even do justice to this location. The outdoor area is loaded with multiple seating areas for everyone. The kitchen was fully stocked with various sizes of all needed pots, pans, dishes and all other items. Housekeeping was outstanding! The location is amazing and you have to take advantage of the kayaks to explore the shallow bay that is steps from the pool deck. Nina has thought of everything with this rental!

Great visit!

We had a wonderful week at Villa Ocean. The house was exactly as advertised. Nina was fantastic…very accommodating, quick to reply to questions, and had great dining and activity recommendations. The accommodations were extremely comfortable…air conditioning in the bedrooms (and living space if you so desire), and the outdoor living space was where we spent all of our time. Great breeze off the water kept things relatively cool despite the warm temperatures. Captain Jo boat charter was fantastic too!

An absolutely wonderful villa!!!

This has been one of the best island vacations we've ever had. Booked the villa for 4 weeks and could have stayed longer. This was our first time on the island and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The French side of the island is full of hidden gems. Devastation from Irma is still present but there's still so much charm. Also, the hosts were so great. They went above and beyond exceeding all expectations. When we visit again, this villa be an automatic for us.

Wonderful

We could not have asked for a better house, location or people rent from. We were a group of 7 with 3 kids 7-14. One of the adults had a back injury and could not leave the villa, Henry was able to find a doctor that came to the house for us. He not only found him but also scheduled the visit. He checked in several times to see how everyone was and if there was anything we needed, it was absolutely wonderful!

Paradise Found

Perfect villa for two couples or a family. We were 2 couples and 2 teens. The two master bedrooms are near equal size and very comfortable. As the other reviews say, everything is as advertised, including the great island across the bay that can be reached by kayak for lunch and beach chill. Bakery is walking distance and a large market a short drive. The manager was very responsive and answered all questions before and during the trip. There was an issue with one mattress, and it was replaced with a new one the very same day. Highly recommended. We would book again in a heartbeat.

Absolutely Perfect!

You know how sometimes is takes a few days to settle into vacation mode? Well, this trip flew by because we were immediately at home and wanted for nothing. This place is a gem - the layout is ideal for people who want to truly enjoy a fabulous island, the outdoors and a well-thought out space both inside and out. The decor is simple, the kitchen is functional and smart, the bedrooms were comfortable and private, and the outside area is AMAZING!! We bounced from the pool, to the sundeck to the shaded porch area and each of us quickly found our favorite spots and did not feel the need to go inside when the temperature peaked mid-day. The kayaking to Pinel island was so much fun and added to the adventure! The hosts (Nina and Kevin) were attentive and available if we needed them (we didn't!) and the housekeeping mid-week was appreciated! Don't hesitate with this one - the reality is even better than the pictures!

What makes this property unique

- Property rebuilt, brand new!
- Air conditioning in every room
- Optic fiber wifi
- Concierge services on demand
- Located in a marine park (quiet bay)
- Shallow water, sand bank and water access from the private residence
- Pinel Island in front of the property
- Gated residence
- Supermarket, beaches, restaurants at a few minutes drive
