Hidden spot lights illuminate the coral reef below, teeming with nocturnal marine life, another unforgettable memory!

Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
We stayed at this property April 21-26 and have nothing but positive things to say.
From the moment we walked in the door we knew our holiday would be one to remember. There were 7 adults in our group and more than enough space for everyone. All the bedrooms were spacious with ensuites which was a huge bonus. Beds and linens were great.
The kitchen was well stocked with left over spices and oils for us to use. There were two fridges which were perfect for drinks and food. No shortage on space there.
The outside......the pool and view were spectacular. We spent every day outside by the pool and the access to the ocean front was perfect. There was nice shade in the morning and afternoon which was great to have for a break from the sun. The outside patio furniture was plentiful and comfortable.
If you like morning walks, it is a great place to do that with accessible roads that you can actually take to eventually walk on Simpson Bay. You are also a short walk to some local restaurants and Maho beach which is a must see/do.
We will be visiting the island again, and most definitely renting this villa again.
The property managers John and Stacey were responsive and helpful wherever needed. Thank you so much for all your coordination with booking our catamaran Stacey!!
Would totally recommend this property (which would also be great for children)

Our family of 5 stayed at Alma April 6-13 and it was a most exquisite time! The property is beautiful, well maintained and it was lovely just relaxing to the sounds of the waves with its beachfront location. My 7-year old daughter was thrilled that she could swim everyday in the pool especially with a very windy week for beachgoers. The property is located in the heart of the action - a quick walk to Maho beach and short drive to great restaurants, while providing a private & quiet respite. Stacey, the concierge was wonderful with coordinating stocking the villa prior to arrival, restaurant recommendations and transportation. House cleaning & replenishment of towels, toiletries were seamless as well as cleaning the pool. Overall a wonderful time. We will definitely be back!

This was a great house for a group of 4 couples for a relaxing vacation. The house is great with a fully supplied kitchen. The pool is wonderful. Easy access to plenty of bars/restaurants nearby but also off the beaten path. Would highly recommend.

Property was stunning. Had a chef for 2 meals . The food was excellent.
Location is convenient to many restaurants.A short walk to Simpson Beach. Beach has bars and restaurants. You can also walk to the main marina have refreshments at the Yaght Club and almost touch multimillion $ yaghts as they come into the marina.
Our stay was great! Would recommend.
5.0 / 5.0
The pictures do NOT do this property justice. This property has 4 separate bedrooms with lockable bedroom doors, and all with full bathrooms (showers, toilets, vanity). The pool is clean and heated to perfection. The view and beachfront is private, faces West (sunsets), has a hose when you enter/exit the beach to rinse off the sand and rinse your swimwear .. you can swim into the ocean as we did, directly from this home. The main street and all restaurants and casino are a 12-minute walk through 2 side streets and a beach (very convenient). The home is equipped with everything you need including big-screen TV in living room (no other TV's, but they are not needed) and portable JBL speaker anyone can sync with while outside on the pool patio enjoying the sunshine. The cleaning lady was pleasant and came by every couple of days which is a great feature to keep the place tidy, clean the kitchen, and refresh the clean towels. All linens and towels are provided. The home has a fully remote security gate and full security wall, as well as fully remote security blinds on all windows. The concierge Stacey and the property manager John were absolutely fantastic and very helpful. Download the "WhatsApp app and you can chat with them over wi-fi without using any data or cellular service, and they will assist you with anything you desire during your stay. They truly care about your experience and will ensure your stay is as enjoyable as possible. We will be returning.

We went to Alma Villa in November, we had a great time. The housekeeper and caretaker were available at all times. She even got us birthday decorations for our first night. The house was clean and had spices, pots, silverware, and everything you needed to cook a great meal. BBQ grill was outside as well. The laundry room was clean and has the necessary supplies. Only thing that was missing was a pool net to clean up a bit but that was a small thing. Pool was perfect for the kids and us to do some laps. Book this villa if you want to relax, be close to the Dutch side, the restaurants and watch the planes land by the airport.

Our family of 6 stayed at Alma for 9 nights and it was an excellent choice! The house is exactly as pictured and did not disappoint at all - it was beautiful and the view couldn't get any better! The rooms are very spacious and modern as well as the bathrooms in all rooms. The beds were a little too firm for our liking though, as was the sofa in the family room. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We appreciated the little extras like spices, toilet paper, laundry detergent, dishwasher tablets, coffee filters that were available also. The pool was nice although having a pool net available would have been helpful to get small things out of the pool. The bug zappers were a big bonus also and needed! We loved the location and short walk to Maho Bay beach (great dinner at Tortuga!). Neighborhood felt safe also. And I can't forget to mention Stacey, our concierge - she was so helpful in setting up our car rental, boat trip, jet ski tour, stocking groceries and our chef dinner! (Definitely get a chef from Fabulous Feasts - it was the best dinner on the island!). Also having a house keeper come to clean and straighten every few days was so helpful with teenagers! Thank you for a wonderful stay at Alma and your beautiful island!

My friends and I came to St Martin for a week and stayed at Alma. There were 7 of us and the property was great for us. It was exactly what you see in the listing. Our Concierge Stacey was in touch with me in advance to make arrangements before we arrived. She met us there upon arrival to show us the house and she was accessible throughout the week. We had one little glitch with the safe but Stacey was in contact with us the entire time until it was resolved. The pool was great! The location was actually right near the airport. There’s a breach bar right down the hill, a grocery store less than 5 minutes away and a strip of amazing restaurants near by as well (if you’re not looking to explore too much - although I highly suggest you do)! Great location for sure.

Beautiful home/beautiful view/beautiful location. This house did not disappoint and was very accurate to the pictures. It’s located close to the beaches, nightlife and food market. We will be sure to book here next year!

This was, by far, my best VRBO experience. The house is beautiful and comfortable, including the pool area. Stacey, our concierge, and John ensured we had the best experience, including a night with a personal chef, arrival massages for the moms and an amazing all-day catamaran trip. The house was a short walk to the beach and we went daily for snacks, drinks and an up close view of landing airplanes. We would return again in a heartbeat!

This was the best trip! We have not traveled to this region since 2017 (hurricane year) and then we all know happened next - COVID. We were a little hesitant in booking, not thoroughly knowing the state of recovery or mindset of locals. We were so welcomed and EVERYONE on the island had the happiest and most genuine smiles. The island has recovered, better yet, many places are completely new. Daily beach hoping is our favorite thing to do, and Sunset Beach (where the planes land over your head) - is an easy walk away from the VRBO.
The VRBO was even more perfect than the pics appear. We were so comfortable and accommodations were easy. The leasing concierge met us at the airport and helped us to our place with our (way too many bags) and had our car rental ready to go!
We would stay here AGAIN & AGAIN! THANK YOU

5.0 / 5.0
Excellent place. Pictures do not do it justice. Very clean, comfortable, and safe. The villa is in a great location. Short walk to several great beachside bars and less than a 5 - 10 minute drive to one of the main sections with several restaurants.
John is a great and very responsive host. He ensured all our needs were met away. No complaints and would definitely stay again.

The home was beautiful and John was so helpful. The house looks better than all the photos. We will be back soon. Worth every penny.
2.5 / 5.0
The property is beautiful, comfortable and has everything a traveler needs. John the property manger greeted us upon our arrival and gave me an in-depth tour of the property. He was always available on What’s app. The property is close to Maho and Mullet beach. Maho beach is in walking distance. One note of caution, make sure all your doors on the property are fully closed or some wild life will come visit you. Great stay and I will return.

If you want to stay somewhere that you won't want to leave - this is the place for you! More gorgeous than the pictures. Stunning, spacious, contemporary property, with gorgeous landscaping, stunning views, close to everything. Gated entrance felt very secure. Fabulous concierge, Gwen.
Pool is smallish, not heated, nice to swim in late afternoon, but chilly in the morning in February. Beach in front of the house has too many rocks and strong tide for swimming but good for view and picking shells. Suited us just fine🙂
One real annoyance was the mosquitos!!! Ask how to operate/charge those electric swatters - I was eaten alive!
All in all a 5 star experience!!!
We would return in a heatbeat!

We picked Ocean Fantasy for our vacation because the condo looked like the perfect place to unwind and it did not disappoint. The rooftop deck with the infinity pool was spectacular and we watched several gorgeous sunsets from there. The three guest rooms were all very comfortable with huge ensuite bathrooms and really nice lighting features, ceiling fans and serious AC.
As noted by previous guests, we did have a few problems with plumbing in the master bathroom, blown fuses in the kitchen, and a broken shudder in the guest room. Nothing earth shattering, just small annoyances. The Bosch childproof stove top, however, almost drove us to madness!!
Gwen our concierge was absolutely lovely, and helped us make some great dinner reservations, booked us massages and a half-day boat trip that was exceptional. She also pre-stocked the condo with groceries and showed us the lay of the land; she even came and found us when we got lost trying to find the house on day one.
While we loved our time in the condo, we did not love the area. We spent way too much time stuck in traffic in Simpson Bay and the neighborhood was not conducive to walking and running -- no sidewalks, and lots of uneven terrain.
When we used taxis to go to dinner at night, they were super expensive -- that said, our driver Wilken was absolutely hilarious and definitely a highlight of our trip.
If you're looking for a beautiful oasis in St. Maarten, this is a great spot.

We had an amazing stay here in SXM – and staying in this house was probably the best part of it! Thank you for creating such a beautiful home for five friends who just wanted to relax. The view was everything! We’d love to come back.
