Great Location, Interesting Property!

We enjoyed our time at Serendipity and Serenade House this past Christmas and New Year. Mike was a good host, very available, welcoming and flexible with our arrivals and departures. There was more than enough space for the 9 of us, the many great outdoor deck areas to enjoy the views, relax with the sun and jacuzzi as well as eating space. Here is a bit of a balanced things we noticed. Great things to note: Wonderful view of Oyster Pond, the ocean, St. Bart’s and sunrises Plenty of space, bedrooms, bathrooms Great outdoor balconies, patios, decks, eating area Nice pool & jacuzzi Parking space & Airco in every room Points to note: The house is built against a steep hill, thus access is a bit challenging and thus there are many stairs/steps especially in the lower part of the complex. Wifi doesn’t reach all bedrooms/ areas (thick walls, large spaces). St. Maarten is a subtropical island with very high humidity, thus it gets very humid inside the house with it’s consequences! Opening windows and doors, to let the breeze in, is highly recommended but allows gnats etc. to enter as well. We had some very short, but hard tropical rainstorms, and there was some leaking but Mike was going to fix it. But everybody and everything stayed dry, 4-star cleanliness, needs some extra efforts to get to 5-stars. All in all, lovely location with excellent views and outdoor enjoyment, very unique and special house and very nice and available host.

Spacious Home

Serendipity is a spacious home which is perfect for a large group. The home is built upon a mountain and has spectacular views. To note, the house has a lot of stairs which was fine for our group of 50 year olds. Positives - it had plenty of space for our group of 12 and was less than a minute from the French side. Negatives - The house needs repairs and was not as clean as I would have liked.

This home with unobstructed views of the bay and ocean, pool and outdoor kitchen sold us. The coconut and palm trees just add to the tropical feel you get when you come thru the automatic gate.
