We just left after 7 wonderful days at Villa Vista and I would go back in a heartbeat! The house is beautiful!! It is perched on a hill with amazing views of St. Barths! It is conveniently located- no more than 20-30 minutes to anywhere you want to go on the island- but secluded as well! Donnamarie has thought of everything for her guests, right down to the comfy robes! Just go ahead and book it already!!
10.0 / 10.0
This house was perfect for us as we took our 3 adult children with their significant others. Each room has an ensuite and the property was very nicely kept. The only reason for the 4 star rating on location has to do with the steep driveway with a rental car that had issues going up it if it rained. The view is spectacular!
10.0 / 10.0
The Villa was great with amazing views. Comfortable bedding was a hit. The Villa is away from all the hustle and bustle of the cities on the island but very accessible to all beaches and things to do. Donnamarie was an amazing host right from the beginning of our communication of the property. She set up dinners and tours for us and had a very extensive list of the best of the best for anything you wanted to do. Her property manager Daryl met us at the car rental and escorted us right to the villa with a stop at the grocery for a few provisions. He was always around for any questions we had and any issues that needed attention. A vehicle is a must to get around the island with nothing any farther than a 25-30 ride. The whole family had a very enjoyable time while at the villa whether it was quiet time with a book on the veranda or a dip in the pool!
Thank you Donnamarie for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Beautiful!!! Sunrises, breezes, palm trees, and an occasional monkey!! Cannot say enough! House is perfect! Open door between kitchen and pool is amazing!! Balconies galore! Everyone had their own space, but also an amazing common area. Pool and outdoor dining … just an awesome house.

Donna and her crew went out of their way to make sure everything was just right! She was great with details and helped with planning advice — all of which helped make it a memorable time! The home is beautiful! We so enjoyed our time at Villa Vista and highly recommend it!!!

We were 4 couples visiting from various eastern US States. The host was so helpful and there was a person close by to welcome us at the airport and help us settle in. The home was immaculate and the beds were the best! There was as ample parking for the two cars we rented. What a beautiful view from this secluded location. We all agreed it was fabulous place to stay.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it did not disappoint! The villa was beautiful and private with spectacular views. Everything you need to be comfortable is included. Daryl and Wilfredo were fantastic guides when we arrived taking us to the grocery store and showed us the route to the villa. We had a wonderful note from Donnamaria and champagne waiting for us in celebration of our marriage. All the recommendations including excursions, restaurants, and even our onsite massage were wonderful. It’s all in the details and this property nailed it. We felt VIP every day with subtle check-ins to make sure we had everything we needed. My only recommendation is get an suv or wrangler for driving the hills of the island but our mustang did just fine as well! 5/5

We've stayed in many upper end homes over the years on various islands. It is a tradition of ours to meet w fam and friends on STJ, STX, and SXM a couple of times a year. With this experience in mind, we've never met an owner with so much attention to detail and personal follow-up as Donna Marie. The amount of truly helpful information prior to travel is amazing, only to be matched with personalized greeting at airport/car rental by staff. All this goes to eliminate any stress that is typically experinced when visiting a new area.
Her non-intrusive text each morning with offers to help arriange outings, etc proved to be so valuable.
The property....wow. Everything one would hope from a fine home in the Caribbean. Each bedroom offering amazing views, a wonderful living area, and an expansive patio. The home is elevated high enough on the hillside to have amazing views of the coastline, yet close enough to hear the incredible sounds of the surf.
Getting there - only a 20 min (or less) drive from the car rental, so arriving prior to sunset on the first day is a safe bet, even with a stop by large supermarket on the way. The roads are typically steep, but well constructed - we had no issues w our 2WD van.
I should add the home is fully air-conditioned, something that is difficult to find at times, and well secured with powered, metal shutters that can be closed at night to create an incredible safe environment for anyone that gets the jitters. Magnificent property!

Our stay at Villa Vista was made perfect by the owner and her property manager. This was the best experience we have ever had with a VRBO property due to her diligence and care for her customers! The property is immaculate, beautifully appointed, and the view is breath taking. We drove our own vehicle and found the island drivers to be very courteous. It does take a couple of days to adapt to all of their round abouts and steep hills but we found it to be quite easy. The restaurants we visited just over the French border were excellent! Villa Vista displays the very high integrity of its owner who truly cares about her customers.

First and foremost, the host Pardi family is amazing. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of before our arrival and were a tremendous help while on the island helping us with recommendations for everything (all were great & they even helped us access places we wouldn't have been able to on our own)! The house was very well stocked with everything we needed. The entire family had a great time.

Well appointed spacious property.
We had a nice stay. The host was great with communication and getting us ready for the stay.
The home is really well stocked and appointed. Great views from an expansive terrace/porch.
Couple of things that one should be prepared for a vacation in this area
- theres mosquitoes everywhere on the island and we were bitten inspite of lot of OFF and other precautions. That limited our ability to hang out by the pool and take in the breath taking view.
- You need a strong 4 wheel drive vehicle as the terrain is very hilly in the area and the approach to the property is steep and narrow.
- This is not a beachfront property, but is close to a beach. The host arranged a nice day for us at a private beach which was great.

Our group of 6 had a wonderful time staying at Villa Vista. The house was beautiful, spacious and clean with beautiful views. We loved the pool and the outdoor area. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could possibly need so we were able to venture out during the day and cook our evening meals at the house. The house is in a great location with a short drive to where ever you want to go. Great vacation, Would highly recommend!

We loved our stay. Everything was perfect. The property was beautiful and well maintained. My personal favorite was the outdoor tiki bed where I laid down and read a few books and took a daily nap. We would absolutely come back again. Thanks for a magical experience and sharing your amazing home with us.
8.0 / 10.0
We loved the views from the pool deck and spent most of our time there. The villa is spacious (we were 5 adults and 2 kids) and the kitchen is fully stocked which was great for cooking dinners. Note the roads in/out of that area are very steep, but you get the hang of it after a few days (you NEED a vehicle). The villa is about 15-30 min drive from everything on the island. The owner is very responsive as is the on-site property manager (Daryl). The villa was very clean, just needs a few minor fixes (eg some DW30 spray on the patio sliding doors so they open smoother...which Daryl took care of right away). We had a very nice family stay!
10.0 / 10.0
Gorgeous place, with gorgeous views. It is a strenuous walk to and from the beach but worth it. Kitchen is well equipped but not a lot of room to store food off the counters. We enjoyed the hot tub—not the most comfortable but very cozy in the courtyard. We loved it and would definitely recommend. I hope we will be back.
10.0 / 10.0
We had a fabulous stay at this property! We (my parents, my husband and my two sibling and their spouses) were on the island celebrating my parents' 50th anniversary. This house was literally built for us as there are 4 master suites, each with an ocean view. We could watch the sunrise right from our bed each morning! The views from the pool deck and the deck below are AMAZING. We loved the kitchen window that serves as a pass-thru to the outdoor bar seating, the tiki hut and all of the lounge chairs on the pool deck.
Daryl, the on-site caretaker was always available by WhatsApp if we needed anything. The owner was very good about answering all of our questions before we arrived as well as checking in to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay. She gave us many recommedations for restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The house was clean and we loved that we had housekeeping services twice during the week we were there.
I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful house on a beautiful island!

Our stay at Villa Vista is exactly what we were looking for in a luxury rental. The views are stunningly beautiful, especially in the morning hours. The house and property were very nicely kept and the inside was spacious and beautiful. All of the bedrooms were a great size with en suite bathrooms.
The host was great to deal with! DM sent us a packet after we booked that had suggestions for restaurants, local chefs, activities, etc that was very helpful for booking things ahead of time. She was also very responsive and made sure we had all the details before we arrived.
It was great to have Daryl nearby who was extremely helpful and responsive when we needed him.
Can’t say enough good things about this villa and our wonderful stay.

What a fantastic villa!
Villa Vista was exceptional from the beginning! Our host Donna Marie (wonderful and so friendly) provided so much information before our trip …best rental car company, restaurants, beaches/services, private chefs….we experienced most of them but can’t wait to come back again for more! A true 5 star villa and best host you’ll find on the island!

Villa Vista is stunning!
This property is well worth with the hype! Communication with the owner was prompt and filled with useful information as far as navigating Covid, setting up car rental, excursions and restaurant recommendations. Daryl the Property manager is amazing! He met us at the car rental and should us around the property when we arrived. Daryl is Available 24/7 if you have any questions or problems. Every single bedroom has amazing views and access to an outdoor veranda. I can’t say enough about the outdoor space which includes a swim up bar, tiki hut and pool with plenty of lounge chairs and towels. Lots of laughs and beautiful memories made. My family agrees that this has been the best vacation ever!!

Great views! Worked great for our family of 9.
Villa Vista was a great stay for my family over Christmas! We had 8 adults and one 11 month old and all fit perfectly in the four bedrooms. There was a pack n’ play provided for the baby. The views at this property are stunning. You can see the ocean from every spot outside. The pool is large and cool, which is great because it was hot enough at 8 am for a swim every day! Unfortunately the hot tub wasn’t working during our trip which would have been nice because some nights were too chilly for the pool. The beach mentioned in the listing is actually quite far and down a steep hill, so we only went to check it out once for a walk (more like a hike on the way back). Also, the house is up a very steep hill as well and our driver for the week wouldn’t come up the driveway in his large van so be wary of that too!! The small car we rented handled it fine. Besides that, everything about the overall stay was amazing. We loved hanging out on the veranda all day, were very close to Philipsburg and spent many days at the beach there and for sunsets, and utilized DM’s recommendation book a ton! We can’t stop talking about this trip and would happily stay here again.

Paradise Found
We came as 2 couples to celebrate a birthday milestone. From the moment we began communicating with DM we knew Villa Vista would be great. The pictures are wonderful but truly don’t do the views justice! DM was beyond excellent in communicating, making suggestions for activities, answering questions, and making reservations. We enjoyed meals at Big Fish, Emilio’s, Mama’s, and L’Atelier. All were excellent for dinner in their own way. Many wonderful lunch spots to choose from. We enjoyed Captain Jo’s Boat Charter to Tintamarre, Pinel Island, and Creole Rock! We loved a private meal at the Villa cooked by the wonderful Chef Dino! We enjoyed massages on the verandah, a day lounging at Loterie Farms. Anse Marcel and Orient Beach are absolutely wonderful! We also made a fishing charter and cooked a splendid Mahi dinner at the Villa! I would be remiss to not mention Daryl, who was welcoming and more than helpful every step of the way. This was truly a trip to remember and we hope to repeat it again soon!

Just Book This Place - There's a Reason for All of the 5 Star Reviews
I can't recommend Villa Vista highly enough. The house and setting are beautiful, just as it appears in the posting pics. Everything was in great condition, extremely clean and well appointed. Perhaps an odd anecdote, but I think it gives a feel for the attention to detail and making things easy for the guest, the villa had a three coffee makers (standard drip, Keurig & Nespresso) and a basket of sun tan lotion & bug sprays. The location is great as you have your privacy in a gated community in the hills, but are a quick drive to Philipsburg, dining in Grand Case, and lots of great beaches. The real differentiator is dealing with the owner DonnaMarie who makes everything extremely easy and is like having a luxury hotel concierge on call. We were far from ideal guests as our first booking was for the Easter Covid hit and had to be canceled, was then moved to Thanksgiving 2020, and we cancelled again last minute when we could not get Covid tests in the required window. Through it all DonnaMarie was extremely gracious. And Daryl will meet you at the airport to guide you to the villa, get you settled in and whatever else you might need during your stay. The only mild downside is that the drive to the house is narrow and steep - if you've driven in some of the more mountainous Caribbean Islands you probably have an idea - but we were able to navigate it no problem despite having rented an excessively large van.

Beautiful home in Dawn Beach area
We stayed at the beautiful Villa Vista in August 2021. The home is beautiful and the view is breathtaking. It was perfect for 2 families with kids to share as there are 2 equal master bedrooms upstairs, and 2 other bedrooms downstairs. After a lot of research, I found many properties in St. Marteen have bedrooms that you can ONLY access by the exterior. This means that kids would have to leave their bedroom, go outside, to then find their parents room, which is not ideal for younger kids. All bedrooms here open to the interior so you can access all parts of the house without having to go outside.
There is a beach down the hill that you can go to but when we were there, it had a lot of seaweed and had rougher waves compared to others. It's a bit of a hike so we drove down. We ventured out most days to check out other beaches which we liked better - our favorites were Anse Marcel and Friar's Bay.
Donnamarie was super helpful prior to our arrival and giving great recommendations of restaurants and beaches. She even checked in a couple of times during our stay which was impressive. Daryl, the house manager, was amazing! He lives on the property and was available 24/7 for any questions we had. This was a great vacation and we hope to come back again next year! Highly recommend!

Great visit - Great place
A great house and great owners. DonnaMarie was so nice and helpful. The caretaker - Daryl is so helpful and down to earth. We loved the view, the pool, the rooms. The kitchen is great. We would go back in a minute.
Can't say enough good things. We had 8 people and it was very comfortable. Our vacation was one of a lifetime.
They know the island and each of their recommendations was spot on. THANK YOU!

Villa Vista is Fantastic!
We enjoyed our stay at Villa Vista. We planned this trip with three other couples.
Our host Donnamarie was accommodating and responsive. This was our first trip to the island, but with Donnamarie's help, everything went as per the plan. She helped us plan the activities, dining, hiring a chef, boat, and car rental. In addition, her instructions about all the local activities were superb.
Villa had a great view and the property far exceeded our expectations; pictures do not do justice. The property looks better in person than in the photos.
Kitchen was well stocked, and spices, pots & pans, cutlery.
All bedrooms had an excellent view of the ocean, and beds were very comfortable.
We spent lots of time in the Veranda, Swimming pool, Tiki bar (This was the best thing :-) )
Daryl (property manager) was available 24/7 for any questions or concerns
We look forward to staying at this property again.

Peace and relaxation
We had a wonderful stay at this vila, beautiful views and a very relaxing environment for a restful vacation. We wanted to just get away and relax after a stressful eighteen months and this location fit that request. There are several restaurants that were suggested and they were within ten minutes of the villa. We did rent a car so we could travel all over the island to visit several locations. The owner (Donna Marie) was available if we needed anything and was very helpful with planning our trip to the island. Darrel the property manager was available 24/7 for any questions or concerns. We would definitely recommend staying at this house for your vacation and we will definitely return to this villa in the future.

Just wonderful!
Staying at Donna Marie’s home could not have been better. I rented her home for 10 days with my sons and their two friends. We shared fabulous meals eating at the outdoor table overlooking over 180 degrees of water. The kitchen was fully stocked. Donna Marie was incredibly helpful. We swam in the pool, again, overlooking the amazing ocean. DM informed us about restaurants and beaches where we enjoyed delicious meals and lovely days. Being able to spend this time with my kids and their friends in the beautiful home during and after COVID (we were all immunized) was truly priceless.

Wonderful
Our first trip to Sint Maarten was a success, in great part due to Donna Marie’s knowledge, generous communication and beautiful home. All questions were answered before our trip began and the relaxed cancellation policy gave us peace of mind. Daryl, the kind and very capable property manager, met us at the airport and guided us to the market and then ‘home.’ What a home- comfortable, beautiful, everything we needed. Our luggage was delayed and Donna Marie generously sent over a needed item. Whenever we had a question, Daryl and/or Donna Marie knew the answer. I would highly recommend this property.

Our stay at Villa Vista was simply fantastic! I planned the trip for the celebration of my wife's 50th birthday for her and a close set of friends. The home is beautiful and exceeded all of our expectations. The views of the ocean and Oyster Bay are breathtaking, and the home is very roomy and great for entertaining. As for our host Donnamarie, I don't even know where to start in my praise of her. She helped me plan much of the trip and my wife's special birthday celebration, including lining up a private boat excursion, hiring a french chef, identifying a singer for the the evening of my wife's birthday, along with reserving several great restaurants for us to visit while on the island. It was as if we had are own 5 Star concierge service! She is phenomenal and a joy to work with in planning any special event. No need to be concerned with COVID protocols, etc. Everyone must have a negative test before they visit the island, and it was easy to arrange and schedule a test before returning to the United States. The island is open for business, and the citizens are very happy to see tourists. I strongly recommend this property, and have no negative feedback to share. And I'm normally hard to please. :-) Eric N.
