  Stayed at Villa Corrine for a week and had a wonderful vacation. Villa was beautiful. Just as described in listing and photos. Walk out your door to your own personal plunge pool and then just a few steps more and you're on Dawn Beach. Can't get much better than that. Walk to Mr. Busby's for breakfast (homemade jonnycakes) and Happy Hour. Walk to Big Fish and Conoa for dinner -- both excellent! Villa Corrine is in an excellent location for a great beach vacation. Corrine was great to work with and answered all our questions right away and gave us great information about things to do and places to eat. We will definitely be returning and I highly recommend Villa Corrine to anyone looking for a very beautiful, well-maintained villa on the beach.

  Recommended for: Romantic getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car.

  Owner response: Thank you for your review! It's nice to learn you enjoyed your stay in our villa and everything met your expectations. That is our mantra: Our guests should feel like they are in our "home" and are taken care of as if we were there. There is nothing like taking a cool drink out to the terrace and watching the sunset or taking a midnight swim in the lap pool. It certainly sounds like you enjoyed all the attractions of St. Martin and especially our location near restaurants, the marina, beautiful Dawn Beach. We look forward to your return next year.

  Villa Corinne is a beautiful beachfront villa both inside and out! We loved the high end furnishings and the private pool. It was elegantly decorated. Dawn Beach is fabulous! It is not very crowded and more quiet than others on the island. There are great restaurants within walking distance and a small grocery store. The scenery is breathtaking! We can't wait to return!

  Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car, girls getaway.

  Owner response: Hi Rhonda: We are so pleased you enjoyed our Villa Corinne and your St Martin vacation. Thank you for your appreciation of the decorating and furnishings. I gave it much thought when doing so, always with the idea in mind that it should first be extremely comfortable and yet pleasing to the eye. I tried to make it a "home" and apparently you found it so. You were a wonderful guest and we look forward to your return very soon. Corinne & Richard

  This was one of my best vacations. I have a newborn and toddler and it was great. It's a gated secure beautiful property right On the beach. The kitchen is stocked with anything you would need to prepare meals. The patio area is beautiful and equipped with plenty of seating to eat, play and spend time outdoors. The only caution with small children is to take a life jacket as the pool is deep so this helps safety. The staff is great and Corrine made all our requests come true- she is a wonderful lady! I can't wait to return!

  Owner response: Dear Raj and Anju: Villa Corinne obviously met your expectations and for that we are so pleased. We love sharing our home with guests like you who need a place for relaxing, reflecting and enjoying your family. Day to day concerns too often overwhelm us and it it so important to "smell the roses" along the way. In the case of our home on the beach, it's "smell the ocean and enjoy the breeze." Apparently, you did. Please return soon. Corinne & Richard

  Corinne's Villa is simply amazing. The location is unmatched: right on the beach, great restaurants at a 2 minute walk (Big Fish :excellent), grocery store 2 minute walk (has all the basic necessities and bakes fresh pastries every morning..), gym onsite, ferry to St-Bart's at at 4 minute car ride... The villa itself is fantastic: very comfy beds, kitchen is outfitted with absolutely everything you might need; including an ice-cream maker!! High-end furnishings, outdoor furniture very comfortable.. beautiful private pool. The villa is also stocked with board games, pool floats.. everything you would have in your own home is there for you... all you need is your clothes and toothbrush.. that's it!

  Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, girls getaway.

  Owner response: Thank you so much for your review. I am always happy to know my guests enjoyed all the amenities and felt like my villa was a "home," not just a vacation property. With the three restaurants and now the addition of a small new market at your doorstep, it's easy to just relax and enjoy the beach, pool and let the world slow down for awhile. Please return soon. Corinne

• What's a hotel again...!?

  What's a hotel again...!?

  In 2011, we left from Switzerland set foot on SXM the first time. That's my mum, my brother and myself. Using two rooms, a hotel was the best option then. For 2012, however, we were one more person - my better half. Sharing a room with a couple was too much to ask from my brother so another solution had to be found. After lengthy searches of the interwebs, we had found it - Villa Corinne. The first thing to catch our attention was that the property has a daily maid service and visiting chef option. Then we took the virtual tour and that's what sold us. The home is right on the beach, literally. The pool is private and the whole outdoor area is very generously sized and beautifully appointed. The palm trees are a huge bonus and really help with the afternoon sun. to describe the inside, the best word is personality. It's not bland and cold, unpersonal like a hotel would be. It's obvious that someone with an eye for attention and lovely taste has had her way there. The service. The maid, Victoria, was very thorough, friendly and attentive. The front desk staff helpful and anything that needed to be taken care of was done immediately (somehow the concept of "island time" has been circumnavigated). The owner, despite being on a cruise, was extremely available too, helped with an issue I don't seem able to even recall anymore, that's how smoothly it had gone. Overall, anyone who wants hotel amenities but not share them with other patrons, this is a brilliant place to get that. It ought to be a safe assumption that your budget allows for such accommodations as you're reading reviews for it and I can assure you, it'll be an investment you won't regret. Corinne, thank you for sharing your lovely home away from home with us, we enjoyed it greatly!

  We stayed for a week over Thanksgiving at Villa Corinne, and it was AMAZING! Truly as beautiful as the pictures. The villa has all the amenities a family would need with many extras. We had our two young teens, and we all enjoyed the pool, villa, and beach immensely. Just a walk outside to the beach, swim out a bit and snorkel to your heart's content. Many great restaurants are located on the island within driving distance with great scenery along the way, and we tried scuba diving for the first time as well. Our family also took the ferry to Anguilla for dolphin swimming, and we spent part of a day in Philipsburg shopping. The villa is very clean and new with great beds and linens, and the daily maid service was a real treat. Spacious rooms everywhere and we felt right at home. This was one of our favorite vacations ever, and we would love to go back. The staff was friendly and helpful as well when we needed directions or restaurant reservations. There are not many of these villas that are beach-front, and you could tell Villa Corinne was one of the premier locations and well done on the inside. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

  Owner response: So happy you found Villa Corinne to be a special place to enjoy your vacation. I tried to think of everything to enhance our comfort. I am always gratified when guests find their "home away from home." It sounds like you explored all the wonderful adventures of a vacation in St Martin. We hope you return again next year to make this a yearly event. Corinne & Richard Margulies

  I must say that from the first moment I was planning this trip and got in touch with Corinne, I knew this vacation was going to be great. Corinne was extremely helpful, very detailed and always available to answer any questions. We were 2 families with children and as soon as we got to the villa we were all extremely happy and pleased. The place is as beautiful as photos on the site. It's very well kept, the villa, the pool, the grounds, all is superb. Victoria, the maid at the villa, is very sweet and so helpful and kind. The wonderful kitchen is very well equipped which enabled us to cook up great family dinners. The villa is literally on the beach which makes this place extraordinary. Walking up in the morning and having coffee and breakfast in our PJ’s with the views and sounds of the ocean was truly exceptional. It is indeed walking distance to great restaurants such as Daniel’s and Big Fish. Also do take time to explore the island and visit other areas such as Marigot, Orient Beach, Grand Case (check out L’Estaminet restaurant) and more. We also highly recommend taking a boat tour with Captain Alan right at the marina steps away from the villa. We went snorkeling with the kids and actually swam with a couple of giant sea turtles which was awesome. We also went to the lottery farm and did the zip lining experience with the kids which they loved! You can get great deals when jewelry shopping in Philipsburg. Try to go on a day when the cruise boats are not on the island and you may be able to negotiate better deals. This villa will more than meet your expectations I can guarantee that! Needless to say that our 10 day vacation at Corinne’s Villa was our best vacation ever. We have travelled the Caribbean’s many times but St-Martin and this gorgeous Villa is now our favorite destination and we can’t wait to go back. Thank you Corinne and Richard – you have made our trip the most memorable vacation of our lives!

  Owner response: Dear Canadian Guests: Thank you for your wonderful review! Richard and I are so pleased your families enjoyed a great get-a-way vacation in our Villa Corinne. We love to hear that you enjoyed our home and especially used the kitchen and all the equipment because having meals in often is the best way to get quality family time on vacation. We tried to provide all the necessities to make it easy. It sounds like you did it all - what a surprise to swim with the sea turtles. Captain Alan provides a super experience for a boating trip. We are delighted you were happy and look forward to your next visit. Corinne & Richard

  What you see is what you get....Beautiful!! We celebrated my husband's birthday at Villa Corinne in May 2012. It was decorated very nicely and there is nothing they didn't have available. Corinne was very helpful as we planned our trip. Her staff was also wonderful! They had the table set up with linens and china upon our arrival, as we had hired a personal chef to come in and cook a gourmet birthday dinner the first night. (Corinne's suggestion). Why go out for a special dinner, when you are already in a special place!?! We spent a lot of time at our beautiful pool and beach area. I highly recommend this villa to anyone wanting to go to St. Maarten!!

  Owner response: Well, Happy Birthday again! And thank you for your wonderful review. So pleased to hear your special dinner was a surprise and a great success. Having a Chef come in for a special occasion is a great idea. As you noted, Villa Corinne is fully equipped and we love our guests to make it "their home," as you and your party did. Loved the photo you sent in front of the villa. Looks like everyone was enjoying the champagne. Please do return again soon. All the Best, Corinne and Richard

  Our family of 5 stayed at Villa Corinne 12/16-12/22/11 and we had a wonderful time! The owner, Corinne, was very easy to work with and was very helpful answering any questions we had---and we had many! Her villa is absolutely beautiful---every amenity is top-notch. Even the view of St. Barths is perfect! We loved the staff at Coral Beach Club: Anju with the pre-arrival arrangements, Josette (& Vernie) with any question during your stay including pre-stocking the villa with groceries which we highly recommend, Victoria and Maria (the housekeepers)---all very professional and kind. We enjoyed the many restaurants within a 1-2 minute walk: Mr. Busby's and Beau Beau's for lunch (Beau Beau's had great ribs), Canoa and Big Fish for dinner (we especially liked Canoa), and each of these places for an ice cold beverage during the late afternoon! The amenities of the villa are incredible: the beds are very, very comfortable, the baths are beautiful, the appliance and electronics are all first-class. Even the Weber grill on the terrace is top-of-the-line (we recommend getting some steaks and fish for the grill---you cannot beat the view from the outside dining area). We have only one complaint: 6 days was not enough! We cannot say enough nice things about this Villa and want to thank Corinne for her kindness and allowing us to experience such a wonderful family vacation---the world needs more people like her!

  Owner response: Pete: Your wonderful review was the best Christmas gift I received. To know Villa Corinne provided you and your family with a place to relax in comfort, enjoy each other and connect in a special way is a blessing indeed. I really do love sharing our little piece of paradise with others. Also thank you for your restaurant comments as I'm sure future guests will appreciate them. Thank you again and Happy New Year!

  Villa Corrine is a perfect 10! Here’s the story—wanting to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary with sun, sand, and surf, we searched high and low on the internet for the perfect spot. When we found Villa Corinne in St. Maarten, we took a chance. As a result—exactly as advertised! Just what we were looking for! This was our first trip to the Caribbean and we are thrilled that we chose the Villa Corinne in sunny St. Maarten. Not knowing what to expect when booking a property online, this property exceeded our all of our expectations. From the minute we were greeted at the airport until our departure from the airport six days later, we were amazed at how beautiful the island and people truly are. Waking up to the beautiful view of St. Barts every morning was awesome. The villa is well stocked with everything you can imagine. If you can’t find it, just keep looking. It’s there. We found that your basic attire is flip flops, bathing suits, shorts and t-shirts. No need for luggage - carry-on bag all the way. We enjoyed all the local restaurants, which are within walking distance, rating Infinity number one, Floaters and Big fish tied for number two, Beau’s Beau’s, and then Daniels. We didn’t try Mr. Busby, but will do so on our next trip in 2012. I would also recommend Jeannie with shopndropgrocerysxm. Our order was delivered on time and what items she couldn’t get because of the holiday, she brought the next day. Corinne is a gem to work with. Whenever we had a question we emailed her and she responded immediately. She is a very “hands on” owner and wants to make sure every client is satisfied. We truly appreciated her attentiveness to all our needs. Corrine is, quite simply—superb! And the entire staff at the Coral Beach Club was there for you—if you have a question about anything, just ask! If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing vacation, this is the place. There is no need to look anywhere else. Book Villa Corinne immediately and enjoy. If we could give a 6-star rating, we would. We loved it so much we booked immediately for 2012—perfect!

  Recommended for: Families with young children, romantic getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car.

  Owner response: God Bless You and thank you, thank you for your marvelous review AND for all your recommendations about the restaurants. I know future guests will be very appreciative of your comments. I am so happy you had a perfect vacation in the villa and are looking forward to your return next year. All the best in the coming year. Corinne
