The home exceeded our expectations. It had all the amenities we needed, and the outdoor space was beautiful and very well maintained. The location was ideal, central to the island, making it easy to explore. We had a car, which helped, but there were also great restaurants within walking distance, a cute nearby bakery, and a gas station with basic groceries.We were hoping to find a place where we could relax and unwind on some days, and this property was perfect for that. The patio, pool, and beachfront provided everything we needed to enjoy the space without leaving.Pascal and Betty were excellent hosts, very responsive and provided great recommendations for local sights and restaurants. While this trip was just for my husband and me, it would also be a wonderful place for families with kids.The garden was stunning and truly unique, you can tell a lot of care and creativity has gone into the space. We especially appreciated how peaceful and quiet the area was.Overall, a fantastic stay, we would highly recommend this property.

This was the perfect place for out vacation! Nice and quiet, right on the beach, walk to a little convenience store (try the cumin gouda!), a great restaurant, and a patisserie )try everything!). Betty and Pascal were WONDERFUL hosts, and we loved their dog, Lucky. The views are stunning, the home is beautiful and comfortable, and the hosts are very friendly!

A stay in paradise

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Nettle Bay. The villa exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully landscaped with a spectacular view of the beach and mountains with a swimming pool practically right out your door. We did have a little bit of a language barrier, but the owner, Betty, was terrific in responding to our needs. One thing to note is that the French side of the island pretty much closes down during low season which meant we ventured over to the Dutch side for most of our dinners. We would highly recommend this villa located in beautiful Nettle Bay.

Beautiful Private Villa

Our family was looking for a restful, private, quiet, serene place to play and this place was it. Upon our touchtown in beautiful St. Maarten, we were in touch with our host, Pascal and Betty. They were kind and helpful right from the beginning. They showed us around and helped us get settled in right away. Throughout our stay they checked in on us and answered our questions rather quickly, which we appreciated.. We definitely needed a car to get around, but there were enough amazing restaurants and even a grocery store nearby that made it convenient to stay close and relax. The pool and outdoor sitting area were lovely. Sitting out and watching the waves made for nice afternoons with the family. We are so grateful to get everything we needed and then some during this time away. And even more thankful for such gracious hosts during our stay.

We Escaped Winter! ☀️ 🏝

A lovely second floor studio overlooking beautiful Nettle Bay and pool. Suitable facilities for a couple. We appreciated the private terrace with hot tub after a long day out. The description and photos are accurate. Laundry facilities in our unit were much appreciated! We felt safe being in a gated community with security gates & guard. Our hosts were very friendly, helpful and prompt to address any concerns. Thank you, Betty & Pascal, for making our 1 month winter getaway vacation a memorable one!

Private and Quiet!

Our first time to St. Martin and we chose an unforgettable place to stay! Our host, Pascal welcomed us warmly upon arrival to the gated community and showed us around the immaculate, well appointed and air conditioned cottage. He lives in the unit upstairs and was attentive to our needs, but gave us privacy to "vacation." The grounds blew us away! Quiet and private, we spent every day in the warm ocean, only steps from our walk out unit, and in one of the four huge pools on the complex. We walked mornings to a French express bakery for reasonably priced fresh croissants and coffee, as well as to a market for groceries for our unit. We rented a car for this trip, and could go in either direction out of the grounds to other adventures all over the island. Nettle Bay is a gem on St. Martin, and Pascal est un hôte magnifique!

Lovely studio

I rented this studio with my travel buddy niece for a St Martin vacation. It was simply delightfully clean, had so many amenities (stove, fridge, washer, hot tub, cooler, beach chairs w umbrella), and was in a private gated community which was beautiful. Betty was so helpful and quick to attend to our needs from extra adapters to beach chairs for visits to Friars Bay Beach. We loved her friendly dog too! I would recommend this place to others who enjoy a vacation but prefer a quiet space to be away from it all. This property was walking distance to a gas station/grocery store, a boulangerie, a liquor store, pharmacy, and 3 restaurants. What a hidden treasure! We rented a car to explore the island and there was plenty of parking near our studio. Thank you so much for a lovely stay!

sadly, unable to go due to the damage caused by Irma

Sadly, due to the damage caused to airport and homes on the island by Irma as well as the fact that there was no drinking water or electricity for a long time, we were unable to travel there (and would have been a burden on the island's infrastructure if we had. Unfortunately, VRBO was unwilling to refund any of their fees or the first payment even though we canceled months before our travel. So, I will not be using VRBO again.

Thanks for great memories!

My husband & I spent 10 wonderful days at Betty & Pascal's idyllic place. We have been blessed to stay at many Vrbos and this is our favorite. The view is incredible from the kitchen/living/dinning area and especially sitting on the large patio with lush plantings, sculptures and attractive abient lighting. The kitchen is fully stocked with beautiful dishes and everything you need to prepare your meals. Within walking distance there is a market, two bakeries and several restaurants. We had a wonderful meal overlooking the sea at Mezza Luna next door to the property. The food and service are excellent. Nettle Bay Rotisserie has delicious quiches, souffles, whole roasted chickens and more. We had a car and visited Orient Beach, Grand Case, Marigot, Friars Bay Beach, Simpson Bay Beach & Phillipsburg. We enjoyed swimming in the large, pristine pool just meters from the patio. Betty & Pascal are warm, delightful people and we look forward to returning in the future!

Heaven on Earth at Nettle Bay!

From beginning to end, our hosts far exceeded our expectations! The property itself is beautiful and is exactly as per listed. Nettle Bay area was the best location for our vacation, and is central to every must see attraction, surrounding beaches and the airport. We can't begin to say how highly we recommend booking with Betty and Pascal. Our vacation would not have been as enjoyable, smooth and satisfying if it weren't for having this paradise of a property and the most easy-going and friendliest hosts ever. From the start of our booking to the end of our trip, Betty and Pascal were so easy to communicate with, and during our vacation...anything and everything you could ask for was readily provided including some of the best touristy questions asked! We are already booking our next vacation with this property, and have already started recommending to all our family and friends :) Betty and Pascal...thank you so much for the best time ever in St. Martin!!!

Just returned from a fabulous vacation Was with 4 other girls for a getaway. John Pierre and Martine were the perfect hosts. They believe it was our home for the week. Anything we needed was looked after immediately. Responded to emails within a few minutes. The condo was exactly like the pictures, fully stocked. For adventure seekers and to learn about the culture we did alot of walking, 5 kms to Marigot and then took the city bus to beaches for exploring. Lotiere farm is a must, a hidden gem. Hiked up the trail there, mod to difficult, 2 hour round trip. The view was spectacular. Beer and groceries cheap. Would highly recommend for anyone. The only downfall, when you stay for a week, I would have liked cleaning mid week or left some cleaning products.

There were three of us on this trip and we all absolutely loved this place! Betty and Pascal are amazing hosts and went above and beyond of for us on our six night stay. We forgot to bring a few essentials and they made sure to get it for us when they didn't have to do that. You can tell they really care about making sure their guests have an excellent experience on the island. The property is located in a gated community and was incredibly peaceful and quiet. The pool and beach were never crowded and at times we had both to ourselves. There is a market and restaurant within 5 minutes walking distance. The restaurant is right on the beach as well so you can enjoy your dinner with an excellent view. Our favorite part of the property was the private terrace which also has amazing views of the island. We could have sat on the terrace all day and enjoyed the tranquil setting if we weren't so determined to take in all the island had to offer! The kitchen was very convenient as well, and includes everything you need to make your own meals if you get tired of eating out. I would highly recommend this place for your next stay. You will not find better hosts than Betty and Pascal!

A GREAT STAY!

Just returned from a 16-day stay in this sweet spot. Betty and Pascal live onsite (along with dog Lucky) so are available for any questions or issues. They are super hosts and had some great recommendations. The unit is just as depicted. King bed in the bedroom. Two full baths with shower. There is a foldout couch in the living room. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals if you wish. The Sandy Ground location is an easy 10 min drive to Marigot (lots of great restaurants) and 20 min to Grand Case (more great restaurants). A very good, reasonable restaurant beside the Beach Club (Mezza Luna) and another, more expensive super restaurant (La Cigale) just a minute drive from the property. And another super reasonable (Cote Lagon) next to La Cigale. There is a convenience store market Cadisco a minute from the unit. Lots of supplies available for basic needs. L’Express coffee and pastry shop also close by. Another grocery is called New Choice less than a mile from the Beach Club has a very good selection of groceries and in Marigot the SuperU is very large. Parking is very convenient at Nettle Bay just outside the unit. If you are looking for night club action and lots of people, this isn’t for you. Nettle Bay Beach Club is quiet and peaceful. It is built in 4 coves, each with its own large pool. The pools are absolutely pristine, large for swimming laps and by the sea. If you are located on the most central cove, there is a small swimming beach. The rest of the coves are really not swimmable. We were not bothered by this as there are so many swimming beaches on the island. Betty and Pascal provide a cooler, beach chairs and beach towels for that purpose. If you take the ferry over to Pinel Island for the day be mindful they don’t take credit cards. Most restaurants on St. Martin do take cc, however they don’t all let you put the tip on the card. Just be sure to always have cash for that purpose. We had a great time and would recommend this place.

Dès notre arrivée, Pascal et Betty nous ont accueillis et nous ont fait sentir comme à la maison. Tout était parfait. Betty avait même mis des rafraîchissements au frigo! La villa était exactement comme les photos. Tout le nécessaire était là et que dire de l’environnement… superbe! Nous étions 4 et un couple dormait sur le divan-lit qui était très confortable. Nous avons eu un pépin lors d’une expédition, Pascal et Betty nous ont très gentiment aidés, voir sauvés. Ils ont été plus que des hôtes et c’est comme si nous les connaissions depuis toujours!
