About The Owner
Your hosts Tony, Brent, Angie and Troy are very good friends who have traveled the world in search of our piece of paradise. We are thrilled to share our find with you
Why The Owner chose St Maarten
We have been traveling the world for the last 20 years in search of the top ten beaches in the world. Once we found Orient Beach we have concluded this beach is the best of the best with the white sand turquoise 85 degree water along with temperate weather ranging from 75 to 85 degrees all year round. We are convinced this beach offers everything and more for the beach people of the world.

Guestbook comments from the owner
These comments are in response to our one and only negative review and we are saddend and disappointed. We (Tony and Brent) have traveled the world for 20 years in search of our little piece of paradise and found this condo on beautiful Orient Beach. This condo is not just a rental property, it is our second home that we proudly choose to share with our guests. Our condo is professionally decorated, maintained, and appointed accordinglly with many amenites that a guest would not find in a jsut a rental property The 3 to 5 star hotel experience these guests were expecting or preferred was never promised and is not the experience of renting a personal condo and is not offered on Vacation Rental By Owner (VRBO) site.
We spent hours developing a personal Arrival Letter in order to assist our new and returning guests to enjoy a knowledgeable, affordable and wonderful experience. The letter is forwarded to our guests at booking time, usually many months prior to their arrval, which gives everyone time to ask questions.The letter addresses rental cars, taxi's, grocery shopping, affordable and 5 starr restaurants, condo complex amenities, beach towels, shopping recommendations and affordable ways to reach the shopping areas via the cruise ship taxi drivers located on the beach, a variety of highlights of what the island has to offer in an effort to please every guest's personal taste.
As to the specifics: The custom draperies were installed for decorating purposes only because our goal was to wake up to the sun rise and the sound of the ocean as part of our tropical experience. Like it or not, the hurricane shutters are an insurance requirement. Many people have commented on how wonderful our rain shower is to enjoy but if you stay in the shower too long you will run out of hot water. LOL
This reservation was during the Holiday season, one of the most sought out weeks of the year and was taken over six months prior to this guests arrival. If there was a doubt about the island destination, condo experience or any other reason there was plenty of time to cancel the reservation for a 5 star hotel expereince. It is acknowledged that we were easy to do business with and readily avaiable by email or phone to answer any questions. When the experience was not a 5 star hotel which the guest preferred they chose to leave and demanded return of their rental payment and threatened to write a very negative review if we did not return their money. You be the judge...

Perfect low-key beach getaway
We have rented Tony & Brent's condo several times now, and every trip has been as good or better than the last. The location is ideal for everything we need, and the proximity to and view of the Orient Bay could not possibly be better! We'll be back in a couple months. If you're looking for a low-key, chill beach getaway, look no further! And Tony and Brent are terrific to deal with.
Haven't even been there yet and impressed with service!
I felt the need to write a review before we have even arrived on the island, because I am so impressed with the owners. We inquired with different owners about several properties on different parts of the island as we were trying to narrow down where we wanted to stay. Some owners either never responded or took so long to respond that we assumed the property was unavailable and they just hadn't updated their calendars. This is not the case with Tony and Brent. They have been very fast to respond to our messages, and have answered all of our questions thoroughly and thoughtfully. We even asked about one small concern in one of the reviews, and they went to the point of saying they would look into changing something the next time they are on the island. This was certainly not our expectation, and beyond what I have seen owners offer to do with any other rentals we've used on vrbo. We had a short list of places we decided we'd enjoy renting, but Troy and Brent's service was so impeccable, that we easily and quickly made the decision to stay in their place. We are confident we will be happy with our decision once we're there!
Another dream stay at this condo
It was our 3rd time to Orient Bay, 2nd time staying at Tony & Brent's condo. Perfect once again! 10 days this time. The condo is everything we need 2 people, has incredible access to Orient Bay Beach. It really is the best, and we'll definitely be back! Highly recommended.
Great Condo on Orient Beach
My husband and I spent an amazing 10 days at Tony and Brent's condo at the end of February. This condo is just as described, in the perfect location and excellent for two people. We never had any issues with hot water or shutters or the sun. The view from the balcony was breathtaking and a wonderful place to enjoy my coffee and our bloody Mary's every morning. The directions sent to us were very accurate and brought us right to Mt Vernon and the condo. Our days were spent on Orient beach and we drove to Grand Case in the evenings for wonderful dinners. I always felt safe on the property as my husband even dropped me off and went to park the car at night. We did see security people on the grounds and never felt unsafe. We wouldn't hesitate to return to this condo in paradise....
Location, Location, Location - Amazing Vacation
We spent from February 27th to March 10th at Tony & Brent's condo. Communication through out the booking process was excellent. The property is very conveniently located right at the end of Orient Beach. The views of this beach & the bay from the balcony were amazing. We enjoyed breakfast overlooking the beach & bay every morning. You are a couple minutes walk from the beach. You can easily walk to any of the establishments on the beach that rent chairs & serve refreshments. Should you choose, you can even walk to the far end where Club Orient is located.
The property is as described. I found that the property, no matter what time of the day, was also very quiet. I cannot recall being disturbed by noise from any neighbors. I did not find that there was shutter noise as described in one review & I am a light sleeper, nor did I find the sun in the morning to be an issue either. The directions provided in the welcome E-Mail got us directly to the property. I highly recommend renting a car as there is so much else to do when staying here and all is a short drive away. Most evenings we found ourselves eating in Grand Case. There are countless wonderful restaurants here & it is barely a 10 minute ride from the condo. If you want a simple and quick meal as we did upon our arrival day, there is a pizzeria right on the property. The pizza was good & very reasonably priced. Should you want to enjoy the night life in Moho, it is around a 20 to 25 minute ride in the evening. Drive times are greatly effected by the time of the day on this island. During the day give yourself a bit more time. Parking can be a bit cramped at times, but we always managed to find a spot in the large lot below the complex by the tennis court, even when returning at 2:00 or 3:00AM from Moho. Just take a minute to learn your way around the complex when arriving. This will show you the shorter way back from the lower parking area. We always felt safe in the complex as well as most areas of the island. The complex is patrolled by security all the time, and appears to be more so at night, even though I really never seen the need for it. A few nights we returned rather late & I was never concerned walking to the condo.
We spent time looking at other parts of the island, thinking about future trips. I don't really think that you could improve much on the location of this property. I would recommend staying here to family & friends as well as returning myself.
A wonderful place to stay in St martin.
We recently spent our winter holiday during the first 12 days of Feb. at Tony and Brent's Mount Vernon Condo. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend this condo as well as the Mount Vernon property for comfort and safety. The ocean and beach view from the Room and balcony is absolutely spectacular. Its access to the quieter end of Orient Beach is perfect with a 5-10 minute stroll down to the busier section of the beach. This being my first visit to St Martin, I was very pleased with my choice after talking to many of the other vacationers on the beach, who told me that over the years they had stayed in different places around St Martin/Maarten and that they prefer Orient Beach as well as the Mount Vernon property. The condo had everything that we needed for our stay. The air conditioner, hot water heater and all other appliances worked perfectly. The parking lot is about a 5 minute walk from the condo and we had no problems, but people with mobility issues might find it hard, especially with groceries. Getting around in St Martin is pretty easy by car and there are two very good grocery stores within a 5 minute drive. For the first half of my stay I constantly explored the island by car, (which is what I typically do on a trip). But for the latter half of our stay, We were more than happy to just stay on the beach and rent some lounge chairs and an umbrella each day. Even after 12 days I still didn't want to leave. I will definitely be back.
