Excellent property. Better than described. Beautiful view, great location, enough space for everybody. Very safe and secure. Enormous beach/pool towels were also appreciated. Very private and secluded, yet close to anything we wanted. Great communication with host and local caretaker. Big European showers (including outdoor shower). When looking at where to stay in Orient, put Creme at the top of your list of options.

This was one of my favourite places in all my travels around the world. I come to SXM 4-5 times per year since 2018 and stay with friends, but this time I needed to host a group and found this little corner of paradise. It is absolutely breathtaking to admire the view with your morning coffee in hand. Everything is well thought out and explained, there is absolutely nothing missing, the welcome is above expectations and the place feels like home. There is a beautiful energy inside and outside the villa. Thank you for this wonderful treat! Rux

Creme de la Creme is a beautiful property overlooking Orient Bay. Our group of 6 has stayed here three times and we love the accommodations. Matt, the owner, does everything he can to ensure his guests have an enjoyable experience as does Natesha, the property manager. We were entertained by many iguanas around the property and some in our group saw monkeys at the end of the driveway. While we spend most days at the beach, it’s also fun to spend a day at the house. The deckspace is spacious, the pool is refreshing, and the views are spectacular!

Matt the owner was phenomenal. He reached out to us a few days prior to our stay and made island recommendations. Natasha the on-site manager was wonderful, welcoming and always a text away if we had any questions.All in all this could not have been a better stay. The villa was perfect for anyone looking for privacy in a perfect location. Very comfortable, very modern! They have gone to great lengths to make sure we had the electronics we need to stay in touch and up to date. The beach was great. The beach area has everything you need. Honestly we were 5 minutes from vibrant nightlife and a dozen food choices that were all wonderful. And the food is all VERY reasonably priced and good.The pool, the view, the privacy, all blended together for the best trip. My wife was not a big fan of the regular visits from the iguanas, but she learned to tolerate them. (Ha)Thank you Matt and Natasha, we are already looking for our return trip.

Our stay @ Creme de la creme, Orient Bay St Martin

My family gathered for a vacation at Matt's place overlooking Orient Bay. The house was beautiful and the layout worked well for us - 3 couples and two children. We loved the location - high above the town with beautiful views but an easy drive to the beach and lots of nice restaurants. The house is in a very quiet neighborhood, the beach was perfect. We would recommend staying here again.

Perfect location and responsive staff

Creme de la Creme is a beautiful villa looking down on Orient Bay. The villa is well appointed and very comfortable. The location was perfect for our daily jaunts around the island. There is a good information binder in the villa and the owner provides a very useful welcome email which is great to keep on your phone for reference. The couple of small issues we had were handled quickly and efficiently by the house manager. We highly recommend!

Excellent views

Matt's property was even more beautiful in person. The location is at the top of a hill which can be difficult when driving a large minivan, but the views and seclusion was worth it. He had everything you could think of ready and waiting for us. And the location is very close (5 minute drive) to many restaurants and beach area. I would definitely recommend this place and would stay again myself. My friends and I had a wonderful time!

Beautiful View of Orient Bay

Crème de la Crème is one of our favorite places to stay. It sits high up the mountain side overlooking Orient Bay. We are three couples who each have their own bedroom and shower space. The property has a large kitchen and a very nice outdoor eating space and a sitting area for your morning coffee. We appreciate the pool after a day on the beach where the views are breathtaking. The owner and property manager provide excellent communication and quickly address any issues that may arise. We will definitely rent this property again!!

Fantastic Orient Bay villa!

This villa was perfect for us - we stayed 6 days. Very private with no other surrounding homes above this residence. Great proximity to Orient Bay (beaches, restaurants, village, shopping). Amazing views of Orient Bay and surrounding mountains, Saint Barthelemy, sunrises, Pinel & Tintamarre islands. Clean & modern interior with upgraded bathrooms. Nice pool. Well stocked kitchen. All of the needed starter items. Great communication with the host. We hope to return!

Wonderful stay at this gem of a property!

We just returned a few days ago from our lovely vacation in St. Martin. Matt’s property was perfect for our group! The views are outstanding and there was lots of room for everyone. The welcome basket was much appreciated and Matt and Natesha were great to deal with. Matt provided us with lots of information about the island before we arrived, including restaurant recommendations, store hours and day trip recommendations. Highly recommend the villa for its beautiful location and would not hesitate to book it again. Thanks Matt and Natesha!

Family fun in the sun

What a beautiful villa!!! The view, the ocean breezes and the baby grand piano all made our family vacation perfectly unforgettable!!!!We had so much fun just hanging out by the pool, playing games and cooking meals together. The villa is close to some beautiful beaches and fun activities. We kayaked to Pinel Island, snorkelled and kite boarded at Orient Bay.Matt was a very helpful and welcoming host. He couldn’t do enough for us, checked in with us a couple of times to make sure we had everything we needed and to recommend some good restaurants and places to go. It was all amazing!!!I would recommend Matt’s villa to anyone who wants a “cottage-like” holiday in the Caribbean. Thanks Matt and team for a wonderful family holiday! Caroline Sumi

Great Location - Oasis on a Hill Overlooking Ocean

We really enjoyed this location. It was so easy to do 5 minute drive to Orient Beach, which is the best beach location on the island. It was very quiet on the hill with stunning views, which were made easy to enjoy by the large outside patios. Loved that a good portion of the patio space was covered so you could avoid direct sun but enjoy being outside. Pool was very nice. Our daughters enjoyed using the grand piano. It was great to fill the inside with this music while making dinner. Kitchen was well equipped. Bathrooms were all very updated and spacious. Appreciated the generous welcome basket.Host was very conscientious to make sure we were doing well in the property and had what we needed, including calls in advance of our arrival.We have vacationed in many properties in SXM. We all agreed that this is the one we would go back to.
