    We probably would not return due to the remote location.

    Keeping in mind that the location is rather remote and accessible only by car or taxi basic needs like drinking water, toilet paper and paper towels should be on hand for the duration of your guest’s stay. It would also be helpful to advise your guests in advance that there are no shopping facilities near the condo. If nothing else it would save on duplicate taxi expense.

    No breakfast. The location is fairly remote.

    Just WOW! We thoroughly enjoyed the accommodation and the location on the bay.

    I would suggest a better description of the condo that is rented. We assumed that we rented a condo with a balcony facing the water and a glass wall view. I did not notice that we secured a "standard" room. It only had a small balcony on the side of the building. We were able to upgrade to the room we desired halfway through out stay so we were able to have the view we were hoping for. This could have been user error on my part, but something to keep in mind when booking a unit. We are both recently retired public servants so our hope was to do it up right, and we did!!

    Two things really stood out to us: The location on the island. This bay was quite and not crowded. We visited many bays/beaches and this was by far the best. Second, the concierges were amazing and engaging. Mathilde and Kevin were there for any questions we had, both in person and by text. They really made the stay above average. We were there for 15 days and we were able to see the amount of work they put into the operation of the condos and the attention to detail and cleanliness. We took a walk every morning, through lovely neighborhoods and areas where new building is taking place. We even lucked out and saw seven monkeys one morning!

    What I liked the most was the location, the stunning views from the window and the bedroom, and the pool. Above all, I truly appreciated the incredible dedication of the concierge team – their help, availability, and excellent selection of additional activities on the island, as well as their great restaurant recommendations. We felt 100% taken care of.

    Lovely and well maintained property! Location is a bit further out but with a large fully equipped kitchen and a lovely restaurant within walking distance didn’t miss anything at all. Highlight was staying in bed and just enjoying the view of the beautiful water. Lovely getaway that I would love to return to! Hosts communicated well and were very helpful. Definitely recommend!

    There is nothing to say! All I needed was to bring my memory foam mattress and pillows.

    Better than the pictures, this condo is at a nice residential area and I would suggest to rent a car. A very relaxing condo and there is a restaurant and the beach just a few steps away.

    The unit was hardly stocked at all. One single roll of toilet paper is not acceptable in my opinion. Never have I had this be the case. Water instead of soap in the containers.

    The property was very clean, the views beautiful, and the hosts were wonderful.

    The only feedback is that there could be newer bath towels (softer). We could tell they had been washed quite a bit and were a bit hard. And, some type of spray could be helpful for the tiny spider like bugs that show up in the kitchen and dining table.

    It was beautifully situated in the Indigo Bay Area but not too high up in the hills. Breathtaking views from the rooms. Mathilda and Kevin were fantastic, responsive and helpful.

    the only minor thing that bothered us was that we were not met upon arrival, and we had some questions that took a while to get answered. Even if they had offered to meet up with us later, it would have been helpful. They only left a very small (new) roll of toilet tissue which for such a high-end rental we thought was somewhat cheap. We requested another roll and while they were hesitant, they did provide one. They do not provide much, only 2 very small pods for espresso, etc. But overall, we would rather have a very clean minimalistic condo than a cluttered over stocked one. The maid accidently neglected to leave bath towels, which we did not notice until bedtime, but they did bring two the next day,

    The condo itself along with the spectacular views were exceptional. The condo was extremely clean and decorated with a minimalistic contemporary flair. The bed is extremely comfortable and made with high end linens and pillows. The pool was relaxing and quite private. It was nice to have access to a small washing machine. (Please note no dryer, but there are nice drying racks)

    It would be nitpicking to say I didn't like anything. Cannot complain! Just a word of advice you cannot drink the water. Host provides a complementary bottle in the fridge. From all the restaurants we went to on the island I don't think anyone drinks the tap water.

    The location was perfect. Very quiet, secluded beach. Easy parking and travel to the airport. There is sometimes heavy traffic near the airport. Beautiful views, could hear the ocean all day and night. Very good price for the condo. Concierge was very helpful and accommodating. Condo had a good kitchen set up and a grocery store is less than 5 minute drive. Recommend a car to be able to go to all the amazing island areas. Everything is close in proximity, for example Simpson Bay is around 8 minute drive if you want more night life. We appreciate a quiet area.

    CondoStMaarten by the Sea was absolutely stunning with brand new amenities and breathtaking views of the beach and the sunrise and sunset in the morning were so beautiful. Our concierge team, Mathilde and Kevin were exceptional and handled every single excursion, dinner and beach club reservations along with transport whenever we needed it, even arranging deliveries to our door. Transport was very easy. Mathilde and Kevin were so friendly, always available to answer our questions and incredibly responsive. They made this experience feel like a private oasis. We will absolutely work with them for all future trips to the island and highly recommend Mathilde & Kevin at CondoStMaarten by the Sea!

    The building seems to be deteriorating quickly but it definitely still has a premium feel to it.

    The building is almost brand new and the apartment is well furnished and well equipped. The pool area is great and stays warm even when the sun is out. Location wise you need a car but there is a beautiful beach with an outstanding beach bar / restaurant right on it (definitely do eat there, food is amazing). Also, the concierge (Mathilde & Kevin) were very friendly and helpful, even on short notice.

    the wifi wasn't great. low signal in the bedroom and no signal on the balcony. there was also an issue with the television that Kevin and Mathilde took a couple hours to sort out. i was grateful for their persistence. the couch is still very hard and uncomfortable (i saw other reviewers warn about it). the location is a bit out of the way in a quiet residential area, which I loved, but if you're into nightlife and restaurants you'll have to take a $40 taxi or rent a car.

    the view is beyond amazing! the rooms are exactly as pictured. the pool is large and lovely. the condo is just a short walk down the hill to the nearby beach. the concierges Kevin and Mathilde were super helpful and kind! I'll definitely make this my annual birthday retreat.

    Do NOT use the shuttle/taxi service through NONO car rental. The owner or manager (Ryan) will have you late or miss your departure flight altogether. He also will not answer your calls or text when attempting to confirm they’re on the way to get you. Picked us up 40min late and we just barely made our flight and still never received a text or call back.

    Everything is modern and well kept. The Concierge, Charles is amazing and ensured we enjoyed our stay. Everything was PERFECT!
