    Beautiful beachfront at The Villas On Great Bay

    This two-bedroom, three-bath villa is situated right on Great Bay Beach in a small complex of twelve individual villas with a lovely beachfront swimming pool and breathtaking ocean views. This gated complex with on-site management is the perfect place to relax around the pool or to just lounge on your private lanai or elevated deck overlooking our beautiful beach. It is remodeled inside and out with new furniture and king beds. There are security cameras for your safety located in the common areas on the property, including the pool.

    The location is ideal because it is on the opposite side of Great Bay from the bustling Philipsburg Cruise Port, so you can enjoy the wonderful views of the cruise ships' comings and goings without the crowds! There are as many as six cruise ships in port at one time, and watching them is a favorite past-time of just about everyone who stays at our complex.

    There are endless activities available in St. Maarten/St. Martin and the surrounding islands if you are interested in something other than vegging out on our gorgeous beach or beachside pool and patio.

    Recently remodeled: Tastefully decorated with new beds and bedding (600 thread count silky sheets!), sleeper sofa, and living room furniture. All 3 bathrooms were remodeled, with the 2 private upstairs bedroom baths each having new showers and rain shower heads with handheld shower wands. A new viewing deck is available through patio doors from the ocean side bedroom, which overlooks the beach, ocean, and cruise ship dock.

    The kitchen was remodeled, including a new stove, full-sized microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, plenty of cabinet space, and tile. It is fully stocked with dinnerware, cooking supplies, spices, a blender, a coffee pot, a toaster, and bar accessories. There are even little drink umbrellas waiting just for you!

    Short walk to everything: There is a local convenience store a half block away for last-minute necessities. Your favorite restaurants, shops, piers, and people watching are just a short 5-10 minute walk down the beach or boardwalk. This is one of the best locations on the island as you can have peace and quiet when you want it or walk just a few minutes to all the shopping, restaurants, and beach activity your heart would ever desire. For longer stays, house cleaners are available at an additional cost. Toilet paper and paper towels are provided, but you should bring your own bar soap and shampoo.

    Couldn't have picked a better location or villa. The VRBO was off the charts fantastic and beautifu
    My sister & I and a friend rented villa #2 at The Villas on Great Bay. I researched the VRBO site with my necessary needs as a filter & I am ELATED that I selected this Villa. There are only 13 villas. This villa faces the ocean & is a little more private than the other villas. This property has an infinity edge pool shared by all, but was hardly used when were there for our 8-day vacation. This villa is three bath, two bedroom & is the best stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in & I am a seasoned traveler. The kitchen is stocked like my kitchen at home. It has an outdoor shower before you enter the villa. The flooring is beautiful, the appliances great...there is nothing negative to say about this villa nor this property. What is a great plus is that the villas are very secure. You have gates that you can lock outside your front patio & around your entry porch. The entire property is gated and needs a combination to enter & to leave. There is an on-site manager of the property named Serge. He is sweet, so competent, so helpful, & so professional. Serge will arrange a taxi, make reservations...anything that you need. If you rent this villa, you will NOT be disappointed! The property is even more beautiful than the pictures & the location of this villa on the island is the BEST! The best shopping on the island is on Front Street & so are the Villas! Communication with both the villa owner and the property manager before our stay was prompt and informative. A great experience!

    Doug is an amazing host, extremely helpful and gives you loads of information about the island. The villa is well stocked and clean. You are within walking distance to shopping and restaurants and a beach just steps away.

    Most amazing owner and a great property!
    From the moment of booking, Doug has been incredibly attentive, responsive and helpful. He provides a comprehensive packet of information, recommendations to local stores, charters, amenities, generous coupons and anything else you could ever need. Serge, the property manager, is equally charming and helpful with all of your needs. The property is gorgeous, comfortable and well-appointed. Couldn’t have had a better experience. We will be back.

    Great Stay
    If you’re looking for less night life, beautiful quiet beach with the option to be in the mix of busy beaches, it would be a shame to overlook this villa. Communications were excellent, the Villa was clean and comfortable. Highly recommend

    Nice property, great location
    Overall this property is great! The location is prime at the far end of the beach in Phillipsburg on Great Bay. Close enough to walk into town to all of the bars, eateries and shopping but far enough away to be quite peaceful. The unit was well stocked with the necessary equipment and even had some food/drink supplies in the small bar and kitchen. The onsite manager (Wally) was fantastic, helpful and very helpfull with island information. He checked in with us daily to see if everything was OK. The small pool was nice in the morning or evening and overlooks the beach!

    Villas on Great Bay - # 2 - 2nd Visit
    This was our 2nd time staying in Villa # 2. The property is beautiful and all amenities are as stated. Wally was very attentive to our needs. We had to cut our stay by 2 days as Hurricane Tammy was bearing down and our scheduled flight was cancelled. We love St Martin and hope to return for a third visit.

    Great Stay on Great Bay
    The Villas are perfect. Very nicley furnished , excetionally clean and very secure.Well equipped kitchen. Location is perfect. Very quiet, away from cruise ship traffic yet close enough that you can walk into town. Great Bay Market is just across the street. Super convenient with prices comparable to the large store. Great fresh bread daily. Doug is a super host, with excellent communication. Wally, the manager for our villa is amazing. Great personality and there immediatley if you need him. We looked forward to his visit every morning and evening as he checked that all was okay. We are already planning our next. You'll live it.

    My family and I stayed in Doug and Becky's villa on Great Bay for a week in July 2023, and it was everything we could have asked for. This property is located directly on the beach, a short walk away from grocery stores, beach clubs, shopping, restaurants and bars, and more. The pool and surrounding grounds are kept clean and the view is beautiful from the oceanfront patio. We would absolutely stay here again!
