Glorious and Amazing!

We have been going to Sint Maarten every year for the last 5 years and this was the best vacation rental experience we have ever had. First off, you rent directly from the owner, rather than a rental agency or a property manager, and the difference really shows. Leslie the owner really cares about both her guests and her home. The home was beautiful, has everything you need, the view is spectacular and it was immaculate! The owner left a welcome gift which was unusual and appreciated. We were not expecting housekeeping midweek but we got it. The big private pool was fantastic, the movie room had all the streamers like Netflix and Prime and DVD's of about 100 great movies or new tv series which we watched with the 'kids' (20 year olds) at night after we came in from dinner. There was good internet throughout the house. The owner was so responsive to our questions leading up to the trip. The house is super well located, close to restaurants, the supermarket and activities. We really enjoyed sitting in the outdoor dining area for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening and were treated to see some beautiful cruise ships go by. Luc the concierge was also great, he greeted us and the home and we helpful with recommendations on dining and water sports. Great experience. When we come back next year, this is where we will be staying. I'd give a sixth star if I could! Look no further.

Paradise found

We loved our one week stay at Villa Amaya. Indigo Bay is a small, pristine oasis. The unit is so clean, brand new and even lovelier than the pictures. The kitchen is well stocked. We were a ten minute drive from lots of restaurants and attractions. We loved snorkeling in the bay and eating at the little beach restaurant. We’ll definitely be back.

Blown away! Fantastic villa

Wow! From the moment we pulled into Indigo Bay we felt like we stumbled on the best place on earth. Gorgeous setting, spectacular ocean views, awesome location. It is near enough to everything you would need, restaurants, supermarket, shopping and beaches, but this enclave is a serene, horseshoe shaped bay is full of upscale homes and natural beauty. Gosh- the ocean views will take your breath away. Everything about Villa Amaya itself is top notch, from the views to the furniture, the space, the amenities. We appreciated the small touches like 3 coffee machines (drip, keurig and espresso) and the robes and toiletries. Our two teenage kids loved loved loved the movie room- every night after dinner we would find a netflix choice or select from the 100 DVD's of movies and tv shows that the owner provides. The home was modern and pretty, very clean, well equipped and exactly as pictured. With so much to offer we felt like this villa was a terrific value too. The views to the turquoise ocean from the living areas, outdoor dining space, the bedroom area and the pool deck is really beautiful. My husband and I enjoyed our morning coffee and our evening glass of wine on the outdoor dining patio looking at the ocean and feeling the ocean breezes. Leslie, the owner was helpful and super responsive to all my questions leading up to our stay. Her representative on the island, Luke was a great source for dining recommendations and activities. Thank you for an incredible stay.

Glorious vacation at Villa Amaya!

We couldn’t be happier with our choice to stay here! The home is beautiful, spotless and just like the photos and we quickly discovered it is perfectly located. Everything is within a 5-20 min drive with so much within a 10 min radius. Indigo bay itself is a quiet, high end gated community with 24 hour security on site. Although the listing mentions that there is construction going on in the broader area, we were never disturbed by any and had none that we noticed within earshot or eyeshot. The views of the ocean and surrounds from the Villa are gorgeous. The owner Leslie was very attentive and communicative leading up to our check in. She answered all questions promptly and gave us some terrific recommendations for dining and shopping. Luc, the on-site manager was great and helpful as well. The housekeeping visits during our stay was a bonus. Loved the large lap pool at the home and we used the movie room a few nights as well. Everything was just as advertised if not better. Highly recommend Villa Amaya. We hated to leave.

Great villa!

This villa is exactly like the pics! Beautiful views and great location. There is construction directly in front of this property…just know this before you go. We would definitely still stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Leslie Gold

I'm Leslie Gold, the owner of this property. I'll be glad to give you any information you might want to know about the property, the location or St. Maarten in general.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I built this property to enjoy ourselves for the handful of times during the year we are able to get away. It's beautiful. In between, we offer it for a few vacation rentals for those folks that would appreciate the breathtaking views, the sophisticated decor, amenities and fantastic location. We work hard to provide guests with a consistently excellent experience.

What makes this property unique

Brand new modern villa with high end finishes and sophisticated decor. Amazing setting, with breathtaking views, private pool, private cinema room and superb location. Close to everything. Villa Amaya's location strikes the perfect balance between offering a private, gorgeous setting for the home itself, but offering proximity to restaurants, shops, supermarkets, attractions and entertainment.
