Perfect location to beach and very family friendly great service

This place is amazing we highly recommend it to everyone!!! The location is perfect if you don’t have a car . You are within walking distance of a market and hey take your suitcase to haul your groceries back in that’s what our guys did 😂 There are several restaurants within walking distance, but the best one is right below you at The Greenhouse !! Waiter was Harry was amazing !!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Place had everything we were looking for & location was great. I cannot say enough about the IRE management team! I have been coming to the island for years & they were by far the best team I have worked with. Everything was wonderful!

My family and I had a wonderful time at this property. Cathy and the IRE team were so communicative and helpful. We took their recommendation for a chef for two nights, which was amazing. The location is walkable and convenient to groceries and many restaurants. It can get loud at night with music from nearby bars/clubs, but otherwise outstanding time here. Thank you IRE!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sol Y Mar was the perfect rental for our vacation. We had 6 adults and 2 children (3 & 1). The unit layout provided everyone with necessary privacy and also allowed us to feel together as a family. The kitchen was well stocked, the location was unbeatable, and the staff was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed Green House Restaurant directly downstairs. Super convenient! We also frequented Buccaneer Beach Bar and enjoyed ourselves. A few things I feel worth mentioning... the noise from outside establishments can get loud (which didn't bother us- we used sound machines to drown it out). We were planning on using the crib for our 1 year old, however we did find the crib to be in poor condition and the mattress was significantly stained. BUT, due to the location and amenities you might not want to leave. Overall this was a fabulous unit. We will 100% never look elsewhere for a rental. This was amazing and we are already looking forward to returning!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The 6 of us had such a great time!! The location to stores and to the beach was just perfect. I think the best thing about it was the access to the beach bar as well as the restaurant downstairs. Also nice being served food and drink while sitting on the beach. Some sargassum but not too bad. The pool was also nice to have, but in September it gets a little warm and it is quite shallow. I think the only downside is that for some reason housekeeping comes twice a week for at least 7 hours each time. For people like us, that is just not needed. My sister in law was lying down in her bedroom trying to get some rest and the housekeeper went and knocked on her door. Small issue, but still. I don't know if we could have requested less housekeeping or not. Probably our fault for not asking. Besides that small inconvenience, AWESOME!!

Sol y Mar was the perfect place for our vacation to St. Martin! The beach is only 20 steps from the front door, the inside space is huge and the outdoor space with the pool is amazing! The kitchen has all the pots/pans/cups/utensils that you will need and bathrooms are stocked with soap, shampoo, shower gel, etc. and lots of towels for showers as well as numerous beach towels. Maia and Cathy from IRE were extremely helpful before and during our trip. Huge thanks to them. You will not be disappointed if you decide to stay at this property!

This was our 3rd time vacationing in St. Martin. Each time we have stayed at a VRBO and this was by far the best place and experience. The communication with IRE Vacation Rentals was amazing from booking, leading up to the trip and during our stay. The location of the condo can't be beat! We love the Buccaneer Beach Bar, so when we found this place next to it, we had to try it and it did not disappoint! Cathy met us at the condo for check in, gave us a tour of the condo and explained everything. Cecilia, the cleaning person, was so sweet and did an amazing job cleaning up the place during our stay. The location is central to everything! We were able to walk to restaurants, the grocery store and catch the bus when we didn't need a taxi to nearby locations. The condo was very clean, beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for the 6 of us to spread out and even entertain our friends who were staying at a nearby resort. The kitchen was well stocked and IRE provided some staples to get us through until we got to the grocery store, which I thought was a nice touch. The private pool was definitely a refreshing break from the beach. I can't say enough good things about this condo and we are already planning to stay here again during our next trip to the island. Thank you IRE staff for making this such an enjoyable experience.

I have been coming to the island for years so was very familiar with this area so already knew it was a perfect location close to many amazing restaurants and activities. The villa was spacious, clean and well equipped. The owners and caretakers were extremely responsive and kind. The villa had everything we needed and more! We had 7 of us stay there and we all had plenty of our own space, lots of shared common space both inside and out. We also really enjoyed having our own private pool. Highly recommend this place to anyone!

We could not have picked a better location for our stay. Literally steps from the beach, 3 restaurants, and grocery stores. Had it's own dedicated parking space which wave very helpful and the private pool was amazing. Would definitely stay again!

The actual penthouse apartment is absolutely beautiful. we were 8 adults. We have been to SXM several times but this was probably one of our best stays yet. Maia at IRE was excellent to deal with. Everything went smooth. The outside sitting areas are lovely in the villa. But,,,location is just about the best on the island. We have always loved the Simpson Bay area,,with so many places to eat, dance, etc within walking. I would highly recommend this place for a wonderful, clean, safe place to stay. Parking was avail. Only one suggestion is to have TV's in bedroom, as stated in advertisement for the villa. There was only one tv in the main living room. Other than that, everything was excellent.

It has a great market a little ways down the road that carries everything imaginable. Sit out on either the pool deck or the deck facing the beach and listen to the music at happy Buccaneer Beach Club at Happy Hour. If you like being in the thick of the action this is most definitely the property for you!the management company that handles this property is second to none. Everything was flawless from start to finish.

Would rent again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful views - near lots of dining, watersports, shopping, groceries - walkable to all. Beach was great and right at the bottom of the stairs. Three en suites w/ each bedroom and the private pool was a joy. The concierge was VERY helpful and responsive. Only downside was the somewhat unreliable internet.

We loved this property! Very clean, had everything we could have wanted. Loved the location with restaurant and beach bar close. And on a beautiful beach. Definitely will be booking this house again soon!

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property promotion significantly misrepresented the property’s location. This property is located on top of a grade C bar and restaurant. An attempt to relax on the deck is overcome by the smell of cents from the kitchen.As a result we had to miserable days. Little effort was made by the management to relocate us. This we had to do ourselves. What a horrible experience.

This was a great vacation home. The restaurant downstairs is the best food on the island, plus happy house 11-7 great frozen drinks. The view is amazing. Walk to casino and many great restaurants.

After staying in various properties and locations over the past 10 years in Sint Maarten, we found our home away from home. The location can't be beat. The owners have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace every morning and watching the boats and activity on the beach.

In addition, Cherise and Maia are great property managers. From meeting you at the rental car counter to escort you to the property, to having an initial stock of groceries in the villa, and checking on you along the way, their service is the best I've experienced on our many visits to Sint Maarten.

I had an amazing stay at this property. The check in process was a breeze. The house was clean and as described. The location is in the heart of Simpson bay and you can easily access all surrounding areas. The few questions I had, the owners responded immediately and were extremely helpful. The wi-fi worked perfectly which allowed me to work when needed. The views from the balcony and the pool are exactly like those pictured, which is wonderful.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Was a quick walk to restaurants and bakeries, grocery and mini mart. We dined every day at the restaurant below us, The Greenhouse. 2 for 1 drinks are hard to pass up. Food and drinks are excellent! Kyle on the beach set up chairs for my group of 5 daily and was so helpful. Very affordable beach set up. The property managers were really responsive and helped us find a great option for New Years Eve! They worked so hard to find us multiple choices. Water is super calm and great to dip and cool off or rent paddleboards/kayaks next door. Beds comfy, bathrooms huge, kitchen well equipped and a nice starter left for us in the fridge (butter, milk, water, bread, jam). We will definitely be back!
