Vacation rentals in Shoal Bay

Villa Pure is heavenly. From the moment we booked until we left, we felt like family members coming to visit. Nina and Kevin were fantastic hosts and we truly enjoyed meeting them upon arrival and when leaving. The home itself was absolutely wonderful, and better than we could have imagined. It was quite cozy and well maintained. We had everything we needed from a beach cooler and chairs to a volleyball for the pool. The outside area was lovely to hang out and a super easy walk down to the water to watch the boats and look across to Pinel. We truly enjoyed kayaking to Pinel for a wonderful lunch and some beach time. Fortunately, for those who don't want to kayak, the ferry is a very short walk around the water's edge from the villa. Sleeping was great here too...very comfortable beds, black out storm shutters, and heavy doors. Early risers in your house won't wake everyone else up! We truly enjoyed our stay and will certainly be looking to book again with Villaway when we return.

Phadya and Robert's "Oceans 29 " was everything that was advertised, beautiful, clean, contemporary with a great central location and breath taking views !!! Check-in was easy with Phadya describing all the Villa amenities and some ins and outs of the property. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend to future Sint Maarteen visitors!!!

absolutely amazing! gorgeous views, very clean, host is super super nice and helpful would 10/10 recommend!

We had a very pleasant stay. The place is spacious and had everything we needed. The environment is great if you come as a group, where you can entertain together but also everyone has their private space. Brandon was a very accessible host. the place was well situated and next time if I am coming with a group I would definitely stay at his place.

We absolutely loved staying at this villa for many reasons. First, its location and three features we appreciated: it is on the west side of the island which means we saw beautiful sunsets every night; it is near Friar’s Bay Beach that we enjoyed a lot, including delicious food and great music at the Friar Bay Beach Café (quick note: you can walk to Friar’s Bay through the road - probably a 10 mins walk - but with the heat, we preferred to drive); and finally, it is secure and very private - we did not see nor hear neighbours. Second, its comfort. We spent most of our time outside, either in the pool or the covered patio. We also made friends with the turtles! The villa is well equipped with all we needed. And I would be remiss not to mention Julia’s quality service. She welcomed us at the villa and was very efficient to explain all its features. It was easy to communicate with her. Merci Julia!

This property had an excellent location. Very peaceful, relaxing, and not far from many restaurants and experiences. Host was always responsive and had very clear instructions for everything. I would definitely stay here again! 10/10

Sugarbird Nest was an absolutely wonderful place to stay. During our 2 week holiday Ariana was always available to offer suggestions on places to visit on the island, and restaurants to eat. We really enjoyed walking into Philipsburg and watching the cruise ships come and go. Our view of Great Bay and Divi Little Bay was wonderful. Fiona and Bobby were great animals “hosts” as well. The pictures shown are exactly like it is, and the space was bigger than we expected. There were so many great amenities. We highly recommend this Airbnb. We will be back.

Nick’s was the perfect place to unwind after a long day of traveling! It was cozy, comfy and very clean! We were really impressed how much Nick communicated with us and made sure we had what we need.
