The pictures don’t do it justice; this property is beautiful and the view is stunning. Located in a quiet neighborhood on the French side of the island, just a short 2 minute drive to the amazing and peaceful Friars Bay Beach. Bedrooms and living room are spacious and we loved eating in the open air dining area and opening up the house to the wonderful breeze every day. Turtles on the property were friendly and provided entertainment for the kids. Kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for cooking meals.

Our stay was great, next to Friers Bay Beach and Happy Bay Beach. Home was nice with updated kitchen appliances and beautiful pool with amazing views. Short distance to Marigot and Gran Case for excellent French cuisine and shopping. Julia was an excellent host and was available if needed Was an excellent place to spend with family!

We travelled with our 3 children in their mid-20's. The location is in a secluded neighbourhood with Friar's Bay Beach within a 10 minute walk. It is rather isolated. Julia, the property manager, was wonderful- attentive to all our needs including going out of her way for a late check out. The home feels brand new and the property has independent accommodations attached to it in case for different size groups. Lovely interiors! The kitchen was fully equipped. We enjoyed the beautiful garden and pool and especially, the lovely seaview in the distance. The compact floor plan was interesting but the Master toilet was located outside the bedroom and was shared by the 3rd bedroom- it was a bit unusual. Our ONLY real issue we were mosquitoes in the dining room on the terrace and in the living room (no aircon in the living room). The electric fans helped. Nevertheless, we very much enjoyed our Christmas at Kyla's Villa. Thank you, Julia! And thank you for the generous welcome basket!

Had a wonderful stay, highly recommend.

The accuracy of the listing is superb and the photos do not actually show the overall beauty of the location overlooking Friar's Bay Beach. We found the home's open floor plan filled with ocean breezes daily. It is a quiet area and easy to get to several beaches and great local restaurants. We have been back for a week and count this vacation as one of the best ever, and Julia and the house played a large part in a fantastic getaway.

We thoroughly enjoyed our month long stay at this beautiful villa. We are already missing the lovely ocean views, the picture perfect sunsets, the short walk to two of the best beaches on the island, the resident tortoises and all the comfortable amenities that made our stay so fabulous. The villa is very well equipped and Julia, the property manager, went out of her way to accommodate any request. She even bought a high chair for our little grandson. The beds are very comfortable and all the bedrooms have AC. We loved how the space was indoor/outdoor with the large sliding glass doors. We spent a lot of time on the decks and around the saltwater pool. The kitchen is a cooks dream, with high end appliances and a great selection of cooking equipment. The only downside, if you can call it that, is that there are only two toilets between three bedrooms. One bedroom has an ensuite with toilet, while the other two bedrooms just have a vanity and shower ensuite combo. The second toilet is located just outside one of the bedrooms, while the other toilet less bedroom is down the hall and around the corner. It worked out fine for us as a family group, but for three couples it may be an issue. The location was perfect, with just a short drive into either Marigot and Grand Case. We look forward to returning again someday!

Julia did a fantastic job of making us comfortable. The home is just as described and pictured only better. The beach 7 minute walk or 2 minute drive is wonderful (although the walk itself is a bit rough). Great stay and would stay again.

Kyla's Villa is beautiful and very comfortable. The location has beautiful sunset views and is within walking distance of Friars Bay beach. From Friars Bay beach there is a short walking trail to Happy Bay beach. Both are beautiful places to spend the day. There are a number of beach bars, restaurants, grocery stores and bakery close by. There are a number of LoLos (BBQ) close to choose from. We were 4 couples and the villa + cottage were very well equipped and very comfortable. We had everything we needed to cook our meals and relax around the pool and in the common areas of the villa. The finishings are new and modern and everything worked well. Nothing was lacking. The local tortoises were nice "pets" to see around. The hosts were very friendly, responsive and visited to ensure the pool was cleaned and that we had everything we needed. They were extremely helpful in answering our questions prior to arrival and we arrived. We will definitely consider staying again when we are back on the island. Thank you Julia for ensure our stay was wonderful.
