Exactly as advertised and an amazing place to stay! Inside is not fancy but is very well kept. The outside… exceptional! You won’t want to leave the pool and is exactly what you need if you are looking for a relaxing place to stay. Very private and felt very safe with the added security of the gated complex. Will definitely stay here again.

Great place

This villa was everything we wanted for our stay on the island. Spent many hours at the pool with great ocean views. We would definitely stay here again. Also, it was very easy to communicate with the host, which was very helpful since our travel to the island was delayed by a day.

Outstanding location with good privacy. Host was very responsive, everything worked, pool was great, view and sunsets were amazing, highly recommended.We do have two suggestions; Shower head needs to be replaced as many of the jets are clogged and the cabinet for the trash needs repair but other than that it was a fantastic trip!
Nice size deck and shade was available
View below the pool - active surf resulted is big crashing waves
Sunsets were fabulous

Great Vacation at Pelican Cove!

Beautiful and secluded location above the beach. Played in the pool multiple times a day because it looked right into the ocean. The villa was stocked with everything we needed and our host was a very nice and communicative guy. 5 Stars!

Great Stay

This was our first time staying on the Dutch side and will not be our last, The villa was even better than we had imagined, even though we saw all of the listed photos. It was very quiet except for the crashing waves pretty much 24/7 and we never got tired of hearing them and the wonderful view from the back patio and pool. We will definitely be returning.

Loved the quiet

We really enjoy our stay in the Villa. The view was spectacular and loved having private pool. The villa was very clean and Constance does a fantastic job during our stay. Only complaint was the bed was uncomfortable and needed a new mattress and the Villa needed an update. We will stay there again.

Serenity at Vera Bella

Great location, beautiful villa, well stocked. Outside terrace was gorgeous and waking up and having breakfast with the waves crashing and ending the evening outside in the breathtaking pool with Happy Hour watching the amazing sunsets was Priceless! A turn key oasis. Definitely a must book.

Paradise on the rocks!

We loved our stay at Villa Sera Bella! Great views of the ocean right from your private pool and deck. The pool was so much fun to relax in after a long day at the beach. So close to nightlife and restaurants. The villa grounds are beautifully landscaped. Very safe neighborhood and surrounding area. We can't wait to return next year!

We had a great time. Doug is great his place is amazing.

When we got there maid met us showed us around and then came back every two days to clean she did a great job. Doug was a great person to rent from. We had a amazing time. If you are looking for something on the water you have to stay here. Thanks again Doug we will stay here the next time we come back to the island.

View was amazing

Everything was exactly as described. The whole transaction went smoothly, working with Doug was a pleasure. From the moment you walk through the front door you see the AMAZING view. We spent a lot of time on the covered patio and in the pool. Couldn't bring ourselves to leave that view some days so the BBQ grill came in handy on those days. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Simply Amazing!

This villa is exactly as pictured. It is clean, tastefully decorated and is stocked with everything you need. The owner was extremely quick to respond to any questions I had. Beautiful location and fabulous ocean views! We travel to a different location/island every April and St.Martin and this particular accommodation is on the “repeat” list.

Sera Bella Villa,Simpson Bay

Very comfortable villa. Views couldn't be beat! Lots of nearby restaurants and even the ones further away, weren't that far, as the island is small. Great beach at Mullet Bay. Turquoise water. Crystal clear. Pool at the villa, very nice. Perfect size. Villa was clean & well equipped! We'd only stay here, if we ever go again!

AMAZING VIEWS!!!!!!!

Probably one of the most stunning ocean views you will ever have. If this property is available BOOK IT! Every unobstructed sun set was spectacular and different every night. Being on the back patio and pool area you feel as if your are part of the ocean!!! We have been traveling for two months and this will be my most memorable and romantic place we have stayed. Our host Doug was incredible to deal with, very clear, professional and a gentlemen! Leanne and I will be back:)

Beyond our Dreams

We really enjoyed our stay here. It meet or exceeded our expectations what the pictures showed. Enjoyed a lot of time out on the deck before and after our beach trips. Enjoyed time in the pool watching the sailboats and planes. Very well kept, and Constance did a really nice job keeping it clean and taking care of any needs we had. There are a lot of nice beaches within a short drive, and too many nice restaurants to get to all of them. We enjoyed everyone we went to. If you stay, you need to go to the Bamboo House Restaurant for a sunset dinner. It was awesome. We stayed for two weeks, and wish it was three. We are looking forward to going back next year.

My husband and I enjoyed spending our honeymoon in Saint Maarten! We were lucky to find this beautiful villa and wake up every morning to ocean views and the waves while being centrally located to everything on the island! Would recommend for anyone to stay here if they visit the island as this quiet community and spacious property fits all needs you’re looking for!

Teleurstellende ervaring

Na alle mooie reviews hadden we hoge verwachtingen. We hadden behoefte aan een ontspannen week voordat we zouden gaan werken. Helaas hadden wij een teleurstellende ervaring. Bij aankomst was er niemand en het kastje met deurcode, waar de sleutel achter zat, werkte niet. Uiteindelijk kwam er iemand met een schroevendraaier, zodat we naar binnen konden. Het uitzicht en het zwembad zijn absoluut fantastisch! Daar de dag af te sluiten met een glas wijn bij de ondergaande zon is heel bijzonder. Zoals ook al met de eigenaar besproken was het huis echter slecht onderhouden en ronduit vies, met de toiletten als dieptepunt. De stroom valt in deze regio meerdere uren per dag uit en een generator is er niet. Heel lastig als je wilt werken, kookt of de was doet. Doug heeft steeds heel vriendelijk gereageerd op onze klachten en foto's maar na 4 dagen zij we toch maar vertrokken. We hopen dat dit een eenmalige misser was en dat veel mensen na ons wel van de prachtige locatie kunnen genieten in een schoon huis.

I want to apologize for your visit. I note that you complained that the cleanliness did not meet your expectations. I assure you that that has been addressed. I would like to point out that that I offered a cleaning service immediately after your complaint, to which you declined. Also, there is a lock box to address that I do not have an onsite manager. You mentioned that it was jammed. I am sorry for that. It has not happened before or since. Either way, I apologize for the inconvenience. I do appreciate your kind words about my offers to address those two issues. I only wish you would have allowed me the chance to help. As for the power, the national power grid had problems over the summer (of which you told me you were aware). While there was nothing I could do about that, it has been corrected now. Overall, I wish you could have had a better experience, and I hope to provide an opportunity to improve it for you in the future.

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at Sera Bella! The host was very responsive with communication. Our original flight was cancelled the night before we were supposed to leave and Doug worked with us to change our dates of stay based on our new flight schedule. He even made a personal phone call to me to discuss this. I was very appreciative of that and it helped calm my nerves! The villa itself was very nice and had everything that we needed. We loved being right on the water. We watched boats and cruise ships go by. We loved having the private pool which we used every evening. We loved hearing and watching the waves crash on the rocks down below. We ate breakfast every morning out on the back porch. We did have a very minor issue in the villa which was resolved very quickly. The location was perfect! There are many restaurants nearby. The location is very central to all over the island. We felt very safe here and there is a gated entrance at night. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend this villa to others.

Best place to stay in St Martin!

Serra Bella at Pelican Cove was a wonderful place to stay! It was centrally located which made it convenient for going to dinner, enjoyed the beaches that were close and getting food/ drinks at the market. The owner was very easy to work with and answered emails quickly to answer questions we had. The villa was clean (thanks to Constance) and was even more beautiful than the pictures. Expect to never want to leave!
