Location: Guana Bay, St Maarten, St. Martin (St Maarten), Caribbean (Villa Leone is located just 5 minutes North of Philipsburg)

Accommodations:  Oceanfront Villa Home, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)

Villa Leone is located in one of the quietest, most romantic spots in all of St. Maarten; Guana Bay. It is so close to the ocean that the waves provide a constant symphony to lull you to sleep every night.

It is no problem awaking early every day because of the spectacular sunrise that will greet you every morning through the two glass sliders overlooking the oceanfront deck.

If busy tourist areas and crowds are what you are looking for, Villa Leone is not the place for you. It is located in a very exclusive residential area of St. Maarten that is only five minutes away from downtown Philipsburg.

    Rosemarie Krial-Victor to me: Howdy Frank. Our stay at the villa was lovely. Simon is a really nice guy. I hope the Villa fared well throughout Hurricane Omar. I was glad we were on Saba and over a thousand feet above sea level the night Omar hit. I LOVED the rough rock around the Villa Leone and the crashing waves could be heard at night, even with the windows closed and the AC on. Liked the beach bar down the path too! We had a great time and our little girl LOVED the pool. Thanks again. Rose Krial-Victor and John and Anastasia

    Hello Rose, Thanks for your generous comments about Villa Leone. I am happy to report that Villa Leone came through Omar with flying colors due to it's impressive design and strength. We have guests enjoying the breathtaking views from the deck as I write. It also helped that the hurricane hit the southwest side of the island, sparing the east coast from the very high winds and surf. We hope to see you back soon! Ciao, Frank

  • Our latest stay at Ville Leona rated in the top 2 or 3 best vacations of our lives! Can't think of a more idyllic setting than the one enjoyed from the private deck of this lovely property. Nothing better than having a cup of coffee and watching the sun rise over the ocean! Truly a jewel!

  • 11/11/06 We are hooked on Villa Leone and now must return yearly. Once you find the best accomodations on the Island, why bother looking elsewhere. Frank has equipped his Villa with everything you could need or want, and the addition of the new stove and refrigerator w/filtered water system is great!! Crashing waves, beautiful uncrowded beaches, tropical landscaped grounds are all at your doorstep of Villa Leone, not to mention Simon, the best caretaker you could possibly have. We loved having him check in each morning to make sure all was well and hearing some Island stories. Villa Leone is by far the best Villa to rent at Guana Bay. If you go to St. Maarten yearly you will discover there are many hidden treasures to be discovered and the locals are very friendly people. Thanks Frank for providing a piece of paradise for us vacationers and one of these days if we can skip St. Maarten we will have to try your home in the Dominican Republic.
    
    Homeowner Response:
    Hello Ward and Susan, I just installed the fridge and range before you arrived. I agree, the in door ice and filtered water, though a small change, provides a great convenience instead of lugging heavy water bottles and large bags of ice up the steps. I will pass on your comments to Simon, who, I agree, is a great part of the Villa Leone experience. We hope to see you back soon at one of our 3 Villa Leone locations. Thanks for your great comments! Ciao, Frank

    Frank, My wife and I have regretfully just left your villa this morning and are now returning home to South Carolina. Our stay at your villa was everything we had hoped for and more. Watching and listening to the ocean pound the shore from the balcony gave us the tranqualizing effect that we were looking for. We felt no need to leave this spectacular setting, we ate in most of the nights putting the grill to good use and usually ending the evening with a star light dip into the hot tub. We loved going to the secluded beach just north of the villa and hiking the rugged coast line. Simon was always helpful and a pleasure to talk too about the area and its culture.This definitly topped our expectations and we anticipate returning in the future. We will also recommend your villa to our friends any chance we get. We want to thank you for your fine service and prompt communications that you and your staff provided and we hope to be able to do this again. Well rested and recharged, Maureen and Mike Healy Myrtle Beach, SC

  • We've enjoyed vacationing all over the world, but our stay at Villa Leone in St. Maarten was, by far, the most romantic and relaxing getaway we've ever had! Like other guests have mentioned, the amenities are beyond expectation, and the setting felt like paradise. We, too, had many plans for other activities while on the island, but found ourselves reluctant to leave the property! We've already made plans to return in 2007 and stay longer, and the change to Wednesday through Wednesday occupancy will really cut down on the airline expenses. Villa Leone was carefully monitored daily by Simon, the blue-eyed gentleman with the laid-back island demeanor. We enjoyed long walks up the super-steep road to Gibbs Bay point, and even met a wild monkey in a tree during one walk. The road provided a great hiking opportunity where there was absolutely no traffic to worry about (this will probably change a bit, as they are surveying lots there now). We feel very fortunate to have found this jewel online--what a delight!

  • We just returned from Villa Leone, and would like to thank Frank (and the caretaker Simon) for the marvelous time we had there. We actually planned to do many things at St Maarten. But the position of the villa, the views from the balcony, and the Guana Bay beach - were so splendid in their beauty that we spent most of our vacation week just there, relaxing, watching and listening to the waves, walking on the beach, or looking at the night sky after the sunset. We also were lucky to stay at the villa in the fool moon. The view of the ocean in the light of the moon is absolutely incredible! The villa itself was very clean and welcoming. We had wonderful time there and plan to return next year.

  • This was my our 3rd trip to St Maarten as we love the island. The 1st time we stayed at Great Bay and the 2nd at the Maho. We discovered Frank's Villa on line, and decided to try the villa route rather than the hotel. First thing I want to say is that the Villa was exactly, if not more, than Frank describes it! The caretaker (Simon) was more than helpful during our stay there. All emailing with Frank was quick and helpful. All I can say is Thank you Frank for the great experience. I will definately contact Frank next year for our next trip to St Maarten!!

  • 11/26/05 to 12/3/05. This was our 4th trip to StM but our first stay at Guana Bay. Frank's villa is simply outstanding - well appointed with an absolutely stunning waterfront view. Villa Leone has the largest deck and the hot tub & grill are nice amenities. GB Beach is great for bodysurfing and rarely has more than 3-4 people on it. Privacy and seclusion galore while Pburg is only minutes away.
