Beach Front Villa in Cupecoy Bay, Sint Maarten
This 2 bedrooms Beachfront Villa is located in Cupecoy. The beach access is seconds away. Fully remodeled, gorgeous, modern, privately owned, fully air-conditioned. Less than 400 yards from Porto Cupecoy and its great restaurants, grocery, this Villa is also close to Mulet Bay beach & golf course. It has all the amenities one could wish for including private pool at the covered front balcony.
There is a full bathroom and a separate laundry room on the ground floor. The living room has a sectional sofa sleeper which can be used to sleep two people separately, or can be converted into a king size sofa sleeper. The privacy and the beauty of this Villa are unsurpassed. Maximum occupancy is six persons.
The closest grocery store is just 2 min away by car in Porto Cupecoy (or 10 min walking) where you will also find a few nice restaurants and boutique stores. The campus of the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine with its restaurants, coffee shops and grocery stores is within 5 min walking. The airport is about 15 minutes by car. It is about the same 15-20 minutes by car to Marigot, the French side capital, and 20-25 minutes to Philipsburg.

Perfect in every way!
From booking to checkout, every facet of this property exceeded expectations. Fear of old pictures, over-hyped descriptions, or non-responsive property owners can cause apprehension upon arrival with many vacation rentals.
This property was the exact opposite. The villa was better than anticipated, and communication Anna made everything perfect.
The villa's interior was spectacular. Large, spacious, well maintained, it wanted for nothing. The small pool on the deck turned out to be a wonderful refresh after a day exploring the island. Morning coffee and sunsets from the decks bookmarked perfect days. Waves crashing on the sand 20m from your bedroom makes sleep come easily.
The location in Cupecoy is ideal. Far enough from the "tourist" areas that you have privacy, but 2 markets and a dozen bar/restaurants are within a 10 minute walk.
If you are not into the "umbrella forests" of the major beaches, your private beach in front of the Villas provides a sense of intimacy. 2 natural caves just east along the shore provide a shady spot to escape the sun.
Mullet Bay Beach is just a 15 minute walk if you wish to have a more social beach experience.
So, trust in the pictures and descriptions, pack lighter than you think, and feel fortunate if your schedule aligns with availability.
Thank you, Anna, for helping make our time in Sint Maarten one of our very best vacations.
Be well

So close to the water!
Beautiful views every day with the sound of the ocean! What more do you want for a restful vacation? The property is walkable to both supermarkets and restaurants. Parking is at the property as well. Some of the amenities at the club property are a little dated but the staff is friendly and helpful. We enjoyed swimming at the beach in front and the space that this villa had for everyone. Very convenient and close to everything! Thanks Anna fot a great stay!

Perfection, Paradise, Privacy
This is our second straight time booking Anna's property in Sint Maarten for vacation. After 12 previous trips, we finally discovered this property, and will never stay anywhere else going forward.
The villa is truly perfection in paradise. The villa is situated literally on/overlooking the ocean, the tides lap up to shore right below the terrace, with perfect sandy beaches a 100 yards to the west.
The ocean sounds, sunny exposure, segregated terraces, and the trade wind breeze all combine to a level of solitude and privacy that is unmatched whether you are alone, a couple, or a group.
Anna, the owner, is fully accessible all the time, and ensures your trip will be perfect. The location is right in the middle of great beaches, shopping, restaurants, recreation (including golf), and entertainment.
One could 'write a book' just on the villa itself. Just look at the photographs! It is, as it appears; in my view, even better.

This is one of the best equipped vacation properties we have ever stayed at. Anna has thought of everything and is always quick to respond to questions. The decor is stunning, and there is lots of room. We made new friends there, and this villa was perfect for an evening of singing and drinking wine.
The property is also very private. When you sit on the balcony, you see the Caribbean and a bit of the beach; nothing else! While we were there, the beach got bigger every day, and we were able to do a nice beach walk every morning.
The swimming was perfect. Once you get used to the waves on shore, you just step into the water and have a great time floating around, or swimming.
For us, the location and the amenities of this villa can't be beat! There are 2 grocery stores within walking distance. The pool on our deck was an added bonus for cooling down in the evening, as we only used the A/C at night for sleeping. Loved, loved, loved this villa and appreciated Anna's quick responses to any questions.

30th anniversary trip
This villa is lovely and very private. You cannot use the beach because it is too small but there are plenty of others to enjoy. You definitely need a rental car because there are no sidewalks. Driving here is difficult as the roads are very old and need repairing and they are very narrow. Covid has really ravaged their economy and they could really use your business here. The people are kind and friendly. You just need to know when you are driving around it is like Driving through a Third World country.
Some of the most beautiful, private beaches and the seafood is outstanding

Our stay at Sappire Beach Club villa
We like season changes, but winter at times can be taxing. We just came back home after being hosted by Anna for a week and we regret that decision. At the time of booking, we had some doubts about pictures that her site showed. They seemed a bit unreal. To our surprise, the reality exceeded photos. The villa is beautifuly located, very spacious, and provides all comforts anybody might need. Anna is easily accessible in case of any questions, and her instructions regarding entry, stay, and departure are very helpful. We’d recommend the place to anybody looking for coziness away from cold weather.

An incredible SMX oasis!
Our family of 5 ( plus family staying in two condos at the Sapphire Beach Club / part of the same property ) stayed for a week over Christmas and so loved staying at Villa 8! It is a gorgeous, well-appointed HOME with a kitchen that was well-stocked for cooking and having meals at home. We were coming for Xmas and asked Sergey and Anna if they had any recommendations for restaurants for that holiday week: We knew from a previous Xmas week trip to Madrid how challenging it can be to find good restaurants that can accommodate large groups. ( We were 11 total ) Anna and Sergey gave us a wonderful list of ten (!!!!) restaurants, each one of which we had a chance to try, was to our delight, first-rate! And we so appreciated that Anna followed-up after sending us that list to check if we had luck getting a reservation as it was the week of, very last minute! It felt great to know, from a local, some great places to go being totally unfamiliar with the island!
We ended-up staying in and cooking one dinner on Xmas Eve as the Carrefour grocery store is an amazing experience, a gastronomic delight. The kitchen had everything we needed to have a wonderful meal at home and while I was cooking, everyone loved swimming in the private pool on the patio ( where I also started every morning sitting on a chaise and answering emails, looking at sunrises and seeing sea gulls fly by. ) Really idyllic!
We met some intrepid spirits during our stay in SMX, still bringing their hearts and hopes for their beloved island in the wake of Hurricane Irma.
Take the time to talk to people if you come to St. Maarten. Stay at Villa 8. As my grown-up sons ( ages 27 and 23 ) said to me. I “ hit it out of the ballpark by VRBO’ing there and you will be in the BEST of hands with Sergey and Anna!

Great St Maarten lodging!
If you’re looking for a luxurious yet comfortable place to stay, then look no further. Villa 8 at Sapphire Beach resort is well situated for families or couples: walking distance to nice groceries/market as well as the Porto Cupecoy square (several great restaurants, casino, shops overlooking a marina). You can also walk to family-friendly Mullet Beach or the more exclusive “cliff” beaches along the coast (clothing optional).
The villa is thoughtfully stocked with beach towels, in-suite washer/dryer, cooking utensils, covered private parking spaces, shampoo/conditioner in each of the 3 bathrooms, paper towels and everything you need... just pack your bathing suite and a nice outfit for dinner out.
The modern decor is somehow comfortable, and you can watch the passing yachts from your private pool on the patio. A cleaning crew comes mid-week to tidy-up and re-stock.
The Sapphire Beach club has a very clean pool with a small island, a bar and friendly staff waiting to book a cruise or dinner reservations. The club, and the entire island, are still rebuilding from hurricane Irma two years ago, so you’ll see a few boats still washed up near shore and buildings yet to be rebuilt, but it actually added to the island flavor, and didn’t stop our family from doing anything...day cruises, airport, casinos, beaches, restaurants all operate normally. We would not hesitate to return to St Maarten again.
Good luck, have fun and enjoy your stay at Villa 8.

We had an amazing time staying in the elegant modern place overlooking the ocean.
The place was very easy to find and instructions provided by the owner were very precise. Kitchen and bathrooms had everything that was needed and made us feel at home. Easy access to the beach and walking distance to shopping and restaurants make it the stay very enjoyable. Kids loved variety of cable channels. The property is immaculately maintained where every small detail was thought through by owners. We loved it.
