Property is located in gated community, studio is large enough for two people to stay comfortably. The beach is right there but not swimmable. The property has several pools you can use, the grounds are well maintained. However, the unit could use updating. The side seating is old and run down, pots are used up, towels are old as well. Not a reason not to stay here as you are located at very safe community. Our timing was off, the entire week the wind was blowing at 40 mph and you could not sit on outside terrace as it was like wind tunnel. The restaurant Mezza Luna next door was excellent, highly recommend visiting. Another caveat to the whole stay, between our multiple visits to the next door restaurant they were robbed at the gun point. Later we found out that they had uptick in robbery at other parts of Marigot and Simpson Bay, so we were thankful to be staying at gated community. You do have a grocery store right outside the gate next to the gas station and pharmacy and bakery about a block away from there. Overall good stay!
