About this property

Popular Beachfront Condo directly on Simpson Bay beach in St. Maarten

Beautifully decorated 2-bedroom, 2.5 bath villa is in a well-designed, cozy, gated private community with 24/7 surveillance. Security guard from 10pm to 6am. Barefoot is one of the prime locations on the beach. Next to the pool and facing the beach, that is a few steps away from your front door, with island gardens and views beyond.



This condo feels like it is on its own separate island directly on the beach with a pristine view of the crystal blue waters that offers a gentle glide as you enter the water, for ease, relaxation and nature at its finest.

Living area is open and comfortable with lounging chairs that invite you to relax/ look out at the ocean and enjoy your evenings, with a nice cocktail or drink.

Renata will be your host for any questions you may have once you arrive into SXM, staying at one of the best condo's on the beach.
