About this apartment rental
Our condo “The Sea Palm” is located on Orient Bay Beach, French side, Saint Martin- regularly voted among the top beaches in the Caribbean – offering a 2 mile long white sand beach and year-round warm turquoise waters. The condo is located in the Mont Vernon residence on the quiet North end of Orient Bay with direct beach access. Both the pool and beach are at your feet, less than 1 min. From the condo. A 10-15 min stroll down the beach will take you to numerous restaurants, boutiques and water sports.
“The Sea Palm” is located on the second floor in the “Saba” building of Mt Vernon- which is front row, with unobstructed magnificent views of Orient Beach, neighboring islands and mountains. The spacious 86 sq ft balcony is the perfect spot to enjoy breakfast, cocktails, and romantic dinners. The balcony sliding glass door opens all the way up and hides behind a sidewall pocket- creating a gorgeous indoor/outdoor space. “The Sea Palm” has been completely renovated (October 2023) and refurnished in a tranquil contemporary style. It has a unique layout with a separate bedroom. The bedroom has a European queen size all new bed with mattress topper, closets on both walls, and storage for suitcases. Convenient en-suite bathroom, which can also be accessed from the living room. The living room has a sleeper sofa for 1 or 2 additional guests. Fully equipped kitchen cooktop, oven, microwave etc- you can cook meals while enjoying the breathtaking view and listening to the ocean. Smart TV and reliable fast WiFi (fiber-optic). There is a washer in the condo as well. Sheets, towels and beach towels included.
The Mont Vernon residence has 24/7 security and underwent a complete renovation the past couple of years, including a brand new waterfront pool (and wading pool!) with complimentary lounge chairs. The residence also has beautiful tropical landscaping and walkways, a tiny grocery store, a pizzeria (with excellent pizza!) and 2 parking lots. A 10-15 min stroll down the beach will take you to numerous restaurants, boutiques and water sports. Close to several supermarkets, Orient Bay Village with restaurants and shops, Grand Case- the French gourmet capital of the Caribbean with a lot of restaurants from fine dining to feet in the sand dining, and close to boat that will take you to Pinel Island (which you can by the way paddle board or kayak to instead if you want!). Whether you are looking to just chill at the beach/pool, or like kite surfing, paddle boarding, snorkeling, diving, hiking, zip lining, or french/creole cuisine- this is the perfect place. Paradise awaits…
Note: There are stairs on premises. We also recommend renting a car.

We loved our stay at Marc's and Line's Condo at Mont Vernon/Orient Bay, St. Martin. We celebrated our 30th anniversary here and found it a perfect mix of peaceful and quiet relaxation, combined with options for adventures on the beach or nearby in Grand Case or at Pinel Island (not to mention horseback riding on the beach at Le Ranch Du Galion). We found the condo to accurately match the description and loved the view and location with direct access to the beautiful extended long beach at Orient Bay, as well as the great pool overlooking the beach.
Marc and Line (owners) as well as their local managers Bode and Linda were so easy to communicate with and were extremely helpful and responsive. St. Martin is truly the "Friendly Island" - we couldn't have had a better experience!

Great, cozy apartment. All went well! Would recommend but parking was a challenge at times.

We had a fantastic time. This was our first VRBO and it was great. We were totally satisfied. The apartment was clean and well supplied, the manager, Linda I think, was timely and friendly and a pleasure to meet. The area was clean and comfortable. Everything worked just fine. The pool and beach area/access was a dream; not crowded, clean, and easily accessible. Very close to Orient Beach, within a few min drive and you could walk there in about 15 min on the beach. Plenty of shopping, food and groceries right down the street. 25 min to Phillipsburg for more shopping. All in all, I hope its available the next time we come because we will definitely use again.

The unit is great. Simple, clean, close to the beach and pool feet away. My 6 year old loved the pool!

Easy to get anything rectified with owners and manager. Convenient with the beach right there. You will need a car to get to restaurants and sightseeing. Enjoyed the patio. Had issues with ants and manager sprayed 2 days later. Still saw ants so it needs to be fumigated when someone is not there. Pool was great also on the property.

The apartment was exactly as pictured. It was very nicely furnished and had good kitchen amenities. It was very clean. It was very convenient to all the beach clubs, restaurants and bars on Orient Bay. We did not rent a car for the first time in Saint Martin and it's our 6th trip. We felt we could just stay in Orient and walk and we were right. The little market on the property at Mont Vernon has a very nice selection of anything you might need - coffee, cheese, bread, sunscreen. Very convenient. One word of advice: Be sure to get a taxi fare BEFORE you get into a car as while there are norms and it should cost the same to get back to the airport as it did to get to your destination, there are people who do not abide by this convention. You will be very happy with this apartment.

What a great condo! The separate bedroom is really nice to have. The kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals. The furniture and bed are comfortable. The view from the deck is awesome. The owners were extraordinarily responsive to email, and the couple that checked us in took great care of us. We have stayed in four other units in this complex and we will definitely chose SeaPalm again.

This was our 4th time visiting the island and the second time staying at Mont Vernon. We always look for a more local, quiet spot to stay and this is truly it. Line and Marc, as well as their property managers, were wonderful hosts making sure we had everything we needed, even providing a pack and play for our 1 year old.
The unit itself is beautifully renovated, had a perfectly stocked kitchen, and a separate bedroom (which many of the other rental in this complex do not have). The views from the unit are beautiful. It’s a short walk down to the newly finished pool.
The market and pizzeria were so wonderful to have. Especially having a baby who goes to bed early. We were able to order from there several nights and enjoy dinner on the terrace.
When our flight was delayed going home, Line and Marc were so generous to accommodate us for an extra night. We were very pleased with everything and would highly recommend for future visits. Thank you for hosting our family!
10.0
There is a wide range of nearby restaurants that are just a short drive (< 5 mins) or a beach walk (15-20 mins). We made this this walk easily 1-2x per day. Pinel Island is a must-see. Plan ahead by reserving chairs, so you have a place to call home when you arrive. The short ferry was quick and simple, but I would have also considered renting a kayak if it were available. (also need to book ahead). We would definitely stay here again!

The managers of the property were so wonderful and kind. The owners were so helpful and quick to respond. Right on a beautiful beach. Not a lot of restaurants and night life in that area but very peaceful.

An apartment in paradise with easy access to restaurants and beaches
We really enjoyed our stay at the SeaPalm SXM and can highly recommend a vacation here.
From the balcony the view is perfect, overlooking the garden, poolarea and finally the ocean.
The apartment is located very close to the beach where you will find all kind of watersport activities and beach restaurants. By the pool there are plenty of sunbeds and we never experienced any problems with the availability.
There is a pizzaria at Mont Vernon, where they make very good pizzas. Next to the pizzaria, there is a small grocery store, where they sell baguettes and the most needful things.
In driving distance you will find Grand Case with a lot of fantastic restaurants, some of them in surroundings where you have your feet-in-the-sand while dining.
We used the guide from Line & Marc, which is in the apartment. The guide is very useful to inspiration for things to do and some very great nearby restaurants.
Dont miss the opportunity to visit Calmos Cafe in Grand Case and of course Pinel Island!
We rented a car all days at St. Maarten, this is also highly recommendable, so you can access all 37 beaches and the nearby restaurants whenever you want - you will not regret this!

Very nice unit.
The unit was fully stocked with everything you would need. The view was beautiful. All our questions were answered very quickly. Very nice accommodations.
As we are "seniors" the many stairways were a little difficult to maneuver. Definitely not ADA accessible.

Vacances au Paradis!!!!
le studio était tout à fait parfait, de par sa situation, à pied d'une des plus belle plage de St-Martin avec plusieurs petits clubs de plage avec transats et excellent repas, le bikini beach club était notre favori... Nous avons profité aussi de la piscine du complexe qui est très propre et entretenue chaque matin.
Le studio était très propre et La terrasse merveilleuse pour nos petits déjeuners et nos dîners du soir. Dans le complexe il y a un petit resto pizza, La pizza y est excellente, mais il y a aussi de très bons restos tout près comme le sol e luna et le studio est à 8 minutes de grand case où il y a de fabuleux restos... tout y est très près le traversier pour l'ilet pinel à 5 minutes.
Il y a aussi une petite épicerie à environ 3 minutes en voiture et une autre très grande à une quinzaines de minutes.
J'hésitais à donner mes commentaires car je suis possessive je voudrais garder cet endroit juste pour moi... ha!ha! mais nous avons un service excellent des proprios et du couple qui s'occupe du studio à St-Martin ils méritent ces commentaires positifs.
Je vais y retourner assurément.
Merci 😊

Alles perfekt!
Komplett eingerichtetes Apartment mit super Blick auf Meer, Strand und Berge. Großes modern eingerichtetes Wohn-/Esszimmer, das durch Öffnen einer großen Balkon-Glasschiebetür, die komplett hinter einer Verbledung verschwindet, den Nutzbaren Raum noch größer macht. Komplett eingerichtete Küche mit allen notwendigen Utensilien. Auch aufwendigeres Kochen dadurch möglich. Schlafzimmer mit für französische Verhältnisse großem Bett mit guter Matratze. Sehr gut funktionierende stufenlos regelbare Klimaanlage, die das Schlafen im Zimmer angenehm macht. Sehr gut funktionierendes W-LAN.
Die Wohnung befindet sich im zweiten Stock einer Wohnanlage mit über 200 Wohneinheiten. Dennoch ist ein ruhiger ungestörter Aufenthalt möglich. Zur Anlage gehört eine großzügige gut gepflegte Poolanlage mit einer großen Anzahl Liegestühle, die während unseres Aufenthaltes nur spärlich genutzt wurden. Es gibt jedoch keinerlei Restaration im Poolbereich.
Von der Poolanlage direkter Zugang zum ca. 3 km langen Orient-Beach. Schöne, lange Stransspaziergänge sind dadurch möglich. Am Strand viele Möglichkeiten zum Wassersport, sowie Restaurationen mit Liegestuhlverleih. Leider war während unseres Aufenthaltes am Strandabschnitt vor unserer Ferienanlage ein erhöhtes Algenaufkommen, sodass ein Schwimen dort unangenehm war.
Am Empfang der Anlage ein kleiner Lebensmittelladen mit täglich frischem Baguettes und Croissants sowie eine kleine Pizzeria mit Pizzen von guter Qualität und freundlichem Service.
Insgesamt haben wir den Aufenthalt dort sehr genossen. Die Wohnungsübergabe war sowohl bei An- als auch bei Abreise unproblematisch. Ein Mietwagen ist bei Aufenthalt in der Anlage unbedingt empfehlenswert. Zu beachten ist, dass zwischen Parkplatz und Appartement eine gewisse Wegstrecke- auch mit Gepäck und Einkäufen - zurück zu legen ist.
Für Selbstversorger zu empfehlen ist die Boulangerie sowie die Boucherie/ Traiteur, die sich beide kurz hinter dem Kreisel zur Inselrundstraße Richtung Philipsburg befinden. Empfehlenswert Ist auch eine Tagestour zur Insel Pinel vorzugsweise mit einem gemietetem Kajak. Dort per Fußweg den relativ leeren Strand auf der Inselnordseite besuchen, schöne Schnorchelmöglichkeit.
Zum Essen kann man ins nahe gelegene Grand Case fahren. Hier hat man eine große Auswahl an Restaurationen von einfacher karibischer Küche (Lolos) bin hin zu französischen Gourmetrestaurants, empfelenswert: "La Villa" mit Menü-Festpreis.
Unser Fazit: Wir kommen wieder!

Sea palm experience
My husband and I stayed at The Sea Palm for 9 days in April of 2017 for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We truly enjoyed our stay there. The view was amazing amd it was very relaxing to sit there at night and listen to the waves crash onto the shores of Orient beach! The beach itself was beautiful beyond words. We walked it almost every day. Everyone is very friendly. Local food was delicious. Line and Mark were extremely helpful with any questions or concerns we had about the area or the condo. I would refer this property to any family or friends looking to visit St. Martin. If and when my husband and I ever get a chance to return, we would definitely stay here again. Thanks so much to line and Mark for renting out their wonderful piece of paradise!

Sea Palm un excellent choix
Nous avons séjourné dans l'appartement Sea Palm du complexe Mont Vernon pendant 15 jours avec nos 2 enfants. L'appartement est très beau, propre et rénové, tel que vu sur les photos des propriétaires. Il est aussi bien équipé pour cuisiner. D'un côté du balcon vous avez la vue sur les montagne et de l'autre côté la vue sur la plage de Orient Baie qui est à quelques pas de l'appartement. Il y a également une piscine et un court de tennis et le stationnement est à proximité. Un gardien de sécurité circule régulièrement pour assurer la sécurité. Nous avions un rendez-vous pour récupérer les clés de l'appartement et la personne s'est présentée à l'heure prévue. Lorsque nous avons communiqué avec les propriétaires par e-mail pour des questions, que ce soit avant, pendant ou après le séjour, ils ont toujours répondu dans un délai rapide. Nous avons adoré notre séjour à cet endroit.

Sea Palm continues to impress
We spent 2 weeks at Sea Palm (we have stayed multiple times) and continue to be impressed by this studio. Sea Palm offers everything you need to enjoy a great vacation in the Orient Beach area. The studio is comfortable, has all the amenities (wifi, cable tv, scenic balcony, etc) that you need. The property is well maintained and the owners are great to work with.
This property is great for a beach getaway, girls trip, or romantic vacation for two. It is well equiped with a refrigerator, stove/cooktop, dishwasher-along with all the basic essentials. Mont Vernon offers an on-site restaurant or there are many options for dining in close proximity.
If you are looking for a great property, no matter what the occasion, this property meets and exceeds all expectations in the Mont Vernon/Orient Beach area.

Lives up to all expectations, Pool is really as nice or nicer than in picture
This was our first trip to St. Martin and I am so happy we choose this lovely condo in this quiet NE corner of the Island. I can not imagine how important this might be in "high season"
A few notes:
- Pool truly is big, clean and swimmable, and literally at the edge of the beginning of the sand beach on the ocean(the pictures are real!).
- Surf and wind is pretty constant on this side, I liked it, my wife made sure we made a day to swim over on the calm side of the Island too.
- It is a little hike from the parking area to the condo, so do accept the offer of help with your bags.
- The furniture, kitchen and appliances are all new and the architecture of the renovation is sophisticated and efficient.
- The private patio is great, had breakfast there every day.
- They have it all - except washing machine, though there is a nice wash and fold in the complex, 24 hr. service.
- The little restaurant and wash & fold laundry at the top of the hill in the "resort" is a hidden gem, try the "Norwegian Pizza".
- The French colonial restaurant, Sol e Luna, up the street, that Marc & Line recommend, is magical.
- The "etang" or marsh/slough visible through the trees is a great birdwatching natural area, there is a little dock/blind off the parking area where you can take pictures. We saw a HUGE(1 M long) Iguana near there.
LOCAL COLOR
- If you stay over here in this area, at this condo style redo of the ex Hotel Mt. Vernon particularly, a morning or afternoon trip to Isle Pinel is "de rigueur". The island, Isle Pinel, is a fun little microcosm of these windward islands with a little nature hike and then in the water service at the two bar/cafes at the little hourly ferry dock.
- We spent a afternoon in Grand Case, another afternoon we spent at Grand Case Beach club so we could swim on the glassy smooth side of island
- We spent an afternoon in Marigot. Plan on the market days, make time to walk around.
- We drove to airport through the Dutch side, there were no "0" cruise ships in port that day so was pretty civilized. Beware of the cruise ships count when planning your time there.
- If you miss American groceries try the super markets on the Dutch side, if you are an Francophile stick to the French side.
- Want an adventure, and potentially loose your car rental deposit, rent a more rugged four wheel drive and go up to the top of Pic Paradis

Relaxing and convenient
My husband and I stayed here for our delayed honeymoon/ first anniversary and had an amazing time. The unit was perfect for us; we loved having the kitchen, and the pool is right outside. The view from the balcony is gorgeous. Line and Marc were very solicitous. We were very pleased. St. Martin was relaxing and the food nearby was exquisite. We went to a different beach every day and enjoyed the slow-paced atmosphere.

Beautiful condo with breathtaking view!
We had a great time staying at the Sea Palm. The condo was very clean, stylish, and functional- we especially liked the large balcony which was like an extension of the living room- the view from the balcony is absolutely breathtaking!
Mt Vernon is surrounded by unspoiled nature; and yet conveniently located close to supermarkets, restaurants and water sport activities. The close proximity to pool and beach was a definite plus.
The hosts Marc and Line were very responsive throughout the whole process. We can highly recommend this place!

Perfect!
This was our 5th visit to St. Martin, and the 5th time we have stayed at Mont Vernon. We can't imagine staying anywhere else. Our first time in this unit. This is by far the nicest place yet for us. Everything was clean and fresh and the owners were very helpful with all details. We will be back next year!

Excellent place on Orient Beach
Excellent condo! Everything you expected and even more! Very well equipped, clean and conveniently situated.
Very important for us was the pool located right on the beach, so you can feel breeze from the ocean, see all that and walk right out to it.
We definitely would recommend this place and will come back to enjoy buitiful night on the balcony. Owners were very responsive and just a call away.
Thank you very much for our great time in St Martin!

Wonderful apartment with a wonderful view
Marc and Line were amazing, helpful, communicative and available. The apartment was spotless and beautifully decorated. We throughly enjoyed our stay as we were steps from the pool and the beach, a wonderful treat. When we visit St Maarten we will stay there again and will recommend to our friends

Wonderful Stay
The environment was modern, clean and thoughtfully stocked with all of the basic necessities. Overall, theapartment was more than we expected. The views of the ocean were wonderful and having the sound of the sea added to the experience. The hosts were always helpful with questions and suggestions. The folks that greeted us in the property were also very accommodating and lovely. The location could not be better! Well worth the price and we look forward to being back as well as recommending it to friends and family.

Sea Palm is a GREAT PLACE to enjoy a vacation in St. Martin!
My wife and I stayed at Sea Palm for one week in Mid-November and enjoyed it immensely.
We have made several trips to St. Martin and specifically to Mont Vernon, and Sea Palm was our best yet. The studio is very clean, well equipped, comfortable and offers everything you need to enjoy a great vacation, quick getaway or romantic time with loved ones.
We enjoyed the convenience and the comfort of Sea Palm with it's proximity to great restaurants, convenient pizza on site or having a candlelight dinner on the balcony. It is also apparent that Mont Vernon is continuing to improve with every trip.
The owners/manager (Line/Suzon) are very accommodating and respond quickly to any needs you may have while in St. Martin.
We can't wait to be back at Sea Palm---only for a longer period next trip!
