About this property

The Waves; Oceanfront 2 Bedroom. Gorgeous Sunrises. Relax With The Wave Rythyms



All guests have access to the Community Pool.

The Waves is a beautiful ground level 2 bedroom condo set directly at the ocean's edge in a private, secure residential neighborhood known as Guana Bay. It is set on a firm solid rock foundation at the water’s edge. Guana Bay beach is a 5 minute walk. You need a rental car at this location.

This condo has genuine cararra marble floors and bathroom walls .The oceanfront window views makes the experience of this condo like no others in Guana Bay or, for that matter, Sint Maarten.

Both Bedrooms offer queen beds. One bedroom offers unobstructed ocean views. You can fall asleep to the moonlit ocean and awake to a spectacular sunrise every day.

As you enter The Waves, the kitchen and dining area are to your left. The living room is in front, along with the most amazing view of the waves of the Atlantic Ocean. You feel like you are actually in the water on a ship; without the rocking!

The door off of the dining area provides access to the one queen bedroom. This bedroom has direct access to the marble clad Jack and Jill bathroom with shower. There is a 2nd door from this bathroom that provides access to the glass enclosed master queen bedroom. This bedroom is also accessed from the livingroom.

Off of the living room is a private patio with a bronze swordfish sculpture and classic concrete baluster railings that both frame your personal panorama of the windblown waves and St. Barths in the distance.

For those of you that like to have a quiet place to retreat to but still be only 10 minutes away from all of the shopping, dining and entertainment that the capital city of Philipsburg has to offer, The Waves is a great choice.

There really is no other quality oceanfront 2 bedroom condo in all of Sint Maarten that offers what The Waves does considering location and price.

For air arrangements, fly into Princess Juliana Airport, Sint Maarten. You will want to rent a car at the airport. The Waves is a 20 minute drive.

For larger groups, The Waves can be rented along with Villa Leone Sint Maarten; Homeaway listing #173339 ,
to accommodate up to 6 more guests.

If you are staying for a week, the following are my recommendations for a few activities:

DAY 1

Have breakfast at Chesterfield's in Philipsburg; a 10 minute drive. This restaurant is set directly on Bobby's Marina with fantastic water views. After breakfast, do a loop of the island to get a feel for what you may be interested in seeing during your stay. I recommend stops at Friar's Bay Beach as well as Marigot during your island loop. An afternoon stop at The Sunset Beach Bar near the airport is also nice. You can watch the large jumbo jets land just feet in front of you!
You will be tired after your long day circling the island, so, go back to The Waves for cocktails on your oceanfront patio.

DAY 2

After breakfast on the oceanfront patio, take a walk next door to explore Gibbs Bay Beach and then cross back by The Waves and walk down to Guana Bay Beach. There is a trail head at the end of Guana Bay Beach that will take you along the oceanfront into Philipsburg. If you are hikers, this would be a great way to spend the morning.
At night, a drive to Simpson Bay for dinner at Avantika for Thai food and after for karaoke at Toppers could be fun.

DAY 3

If you like to snorkel, on day 1 or 2, make a reservation on one of the catamarans that go out of Bobby's Marina. Breakfast at Chesterfield's again. It's right near where the boats leave from Bobby's Marina.They have all day sails that have open bar, lunch and snorkeling at two or three spots. A great day!
At night, if you have any energy left, dinner and drinks at the Greenhouse; also near Bobby's Marina, is a good choice.

DAY 4

After breakfast on the patio, drive into Phiipsburg, park at the lot across from Windward Islands Bank and spend the morning walking along Front Street shopping and along the waterfront Boardwalk. The shopping for jewelry and electronics is very fun and can result in a great deal for the educated consumer. You can buy two beers and a Cuban cigar for $5 from the street vendors. You can rent Segways and ride along the Boardwak. One stop that I recommend is the Guavaberry store. Their shakes are delicious and thirst quenching. For lunch, try Taloula Mangos out on the Boardwalk.!

At night, try Bamboo in Simpson Bay for Sushi or EZI for great Italian; try their Eggplant Parmagiana! Be sure to make a reservation though. They are always packed! After dinner, in Maho try The Hole in the Wall forlive music.

DAY 5

One day on the French Side can be a nice experience.
In the morning, you can drive to Marigot, park and walk around the town. There is a nice hilltop fort to visit.
Be prepared to pay for everything in Euros on this side of the island. You can even hop on the ferry and go to Anguilla; a 20 minute ferry ride. There are nice beaches there and you can chalk off another island.
At night, continue on to Grand Case. This is a small town on the French Side that is home to a few exquisite French restaurants. Dinner can be pricey but the experience can be unforgettable!

DAY 6

A visit to Orient Beach on the French Side is a possibility for today. You can turn right at where the road from Guana Bay intersects the main road and continue north to Orient Beach. The beach is divided into nude and bathing suits required. The decision is yours!

For your last dinner in Sint Maarten, I recommend combining your new knowledge of the island with a search in Tripadvisor and trying a new place in Philpsburg, Simpson Bay or Maho. You can then return to your favorite nightspot to finish off your week on this very fun island.

Between Philipsburg and Orient Beach great location.
On the water quiet area. Close to the main areas we wanted. Went out every day hit the places we wanted and only took a half a tank of gas for the week. Frank was great with any question.

Heavenly Little Corner
We really enjoyed the apartment and its location in a quieter corner of the island. The apartment is tastefully furnished with all the necessities - the fridge runs cold, and the shower runs hot. You can choose to either crack the windows at night to listen to waves breaking on the shore just a few feet away, or keep everything closed up if you need silence to sleep. All of the shopping and restaurants of Phillipsburg are just a 7 min car ride over the hill. Similarly, the road that heads to the French (north) side of the island is just over the hill, too. The swimming pool was pristine, with comfy chaise lounges to relax in. There are two sandy beaches within a 5 min walk, north and south of the villa. Guana Beach, to the north, is a bit calmer, and more snorkel-friendly; the waves at both beaches are big enough to have some fun on boogie boards, which Frank has provided in the villa. Being located at the end of the road and within a small cluster of homes, the area feels very safe, no concerns regarding personal safety (there's a little safe in the bedroom if you want to secure your documents and small valuables, though). Overall, highly recommended!

Great view. So so property.
First off, we could only stay one night because of Covid 19 and had to evacuate. We paid for four nights but only stayed one. (Of course no refund). Amazing water view with crashing waves. Beautiful view of St Barts. The pool was terrific. We were not happy with the cleanliness of the unit as there was hair and dirt on the floor and on the furniture. Restoration from Irma was a bit poor in my opinion with some hazards on the floor, like rebar sticking up from the floor. It was ground down but was still sharp enough to cause injury. . We kept our shoes on the entire time and there was a water leak which caused standing water on one side of the master bed. The marble floor was very scarred and stained and the appliances we pretty old but they did work properly. We took a lot of pictures for proof. Frank responded as best he could but not much he could do to fix it. Frank should take a look at Max’s units to see how a restoration is done right.

The Waves!!
Great location off the beaten place. The area definitely got hurt by the hurricane, all being worked on. The Wave was clean comfortable. The waves and beaches relaxing and private. I would visit again!!

About the host

Hosted by Frank Leone

Host profile image
I am a retired Civil Engineer from Pennsylvania.
The Caribbean has interested me since I was 20 years old.
Sint Maarten was my first Carribean island on which I purchased property. I have since acquired other properties in the Dominican Republic. These properties serve as second homes for me and my family. We offer them for rental to carefully selected interested guests for their relaxation and enjoyment.

Why they chose this property

The Waves is a direct oceanfront 2 bedroom residence situated in a very quite, calm, exclusive community known as Guana Bay. The Waves simply offers more for less.

Our community is still rebuilding from the wrath of Irma 2 years ago. Some adjacent structures are still damaged and in need of renovations But, the Waves is all renovated and waiting for you.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of residing at The Waves include
1. Unobstructed views of the ocean at sea level.
2. Directly next to the pool.
3. Separate air conditioning units and controls for each bedroom and living/kitchen areas.
4. Bedroom with glass ocean view walls
5. Full kitchen with gas range.
6. Set directly between two virtually private beaches.
7. Breathtaking sunrises from your bed.
8. Sounds of waves lull you to sleep.
