About this property

Anchor House - Direct Oceanfront - Luxury & Modern Style

* The condominium has a back-up Generator to face the current electrical cuts encountered on the Dutch side of the island*

*Can be rented with OCEAN EDGE, the next-door 2BR luxury condo #2646136*

The first time I went to Anchor House, I was snapped up by the ocean and the sky. This exceptional property enjoys a breathtaking Caribbean Sea view, open outlook, from the sea at your feet extending through every shade of turquoise and true blue to the far horizon.
I fell immediately in love with this property. Bathing in the saltwater mirror pool, facing the ocean, was the icing on the cake. I was ready to go in 5mn walk to Maho where many gourmet restaurants offer great menus. I also found luxury boutiques, art galleries, bars and casino, hairdresser, drugstore, supermarket, as well as a fabulous spa, an 18-hole golf course and a choice of nearby beaches. Finally, I stopped to the well known Sunset Grill & Bar to savor a cocktail”.

Anchor House is situated in the residential area of Beacon Hill, quiet oasis of luxury and elegance on the shore of the Caribbean Sea.
As many press articles describe it the residence designed as an extension of the natural environment is built directly on the rock to become an integral part of the cliff.

The clean architectural line of this apartment combines timeless elegance and avant-garde style. Generously open to the outside, the east-west orientation ensures to appreciate natural light with excellent exposure and unforgettable sunsets.

This modern apartment, designed, furnished and decorated with artworks by international artists and designers famous offers a living area of 3200 sq Ft, 3 king-sized bedrooms with bathroom “en-suite” and dressing. Each room has an area of 270 sq Ft all with bathroom “en-suite”, the master bedroom offers a drop down ceiling TV, a large dining-living room with open modern kitchen, 3 private underground parking spaces are served by lift. The high ceilings of 10 Ft with built-in light and the flush-to-wall doors add an exquisite touch to the modernism of the concept.

The covered terrace accommodates a dining table and a living area of white and grey modern design.

The 1300 sq Ft terrace hosts a saltwater mirror pool built on the reef of the Caribbean Sea.
If you are lucky you will experience the passage of visiting whales.
I hope you will spend a magical moment as I was able to live it.

Additional information: The owner offers service cleaning every two days in addition to the check-out cleaning and the condominium has a back-up Generator to face the current electrical cuts encountered on the Dutch side of the island.

Happy holidays

A Great Place

As many have said, it looks just like the pictures. It is a great place to stay. The back yard and open plan were tranquil and relaxing. It is in a good / walkable location to the restaurants. You can skip Maho beach after you see one plane land. The restaurants around it are horrible and it is packed with folks from cruise ships. Instead, walk a little further to Mullet beach and the Kalatua beach club. We had the omakase at Alina and would highly recommend it. It was expensive, but worth every dime. The owner suggested four restaurants and they were all really good. There were only two issues. One is that there is no ice and no way to make ice. We ended up making it in zip lock bags. The second is the drip coffee maker works and then has a glitch where it keeps powering on and powering off. Pretty minor issues for how great this place is.

Excellent Villa on the Sea

Three retired couples enjoyed our stay. Great location right on the sea, facing west for beautiful sunsets. Close to lots of restaurants and things to do, if you ever want to leave the villa! The only thing missing is a grill and written chech-in/check-out instructions. That's a.very minor inconvenience. We would very much recommend this villa!

I want to share that the location of this property is perfect. A short walk to local food/beverage and some shopping. We walked allot which made things easy for our group.The view from the patio is as amazing as the photos show. We have a few complaints but it's nothing I don't feel the owner and manger can address before your stay :-)The ice machine did not work. We could never get the ceiling fans to work. One of our bathroom sinks did not drain. The maid did show up on Thursday but from what we could tell the only thing they did was dump the garbage and sweep the main living area. We wanted to use the safe but when I asked how to use it, no one responded. I tried to google it, but we could never figure it out, so we just carried our items with us.Again, these are all things that def can be taken care of for your visit! Just know that it's location and the home itself, you will enjoy. Do a full walk thru upon arrival and just be sure to address any issues you have.

Oct 2024 Stay

The property was awesome. The view was absolutely breath taking. The neighborhood's proximity to various restaurants and shops made it highly convenient for us to explore the area on foot. However, we encountered a slight inconvenience during rainfall, as the roads tended to flood, necessitating transportation to exit the neighborhood. Additionally, we noticed a presence of ants in the property, particularly in the dishwasher, on the counters, and in the kitchen area. While this could be bothersome initially, we gradually became accustomed to it over the course of a few days. Another matter of note is that the owner resides in close proximity to the villa. On one particular morning, we were somewhat startled to observe him walking around the pool area without prior notice. Other than that the trip was fantastic and would book again. The property manager was awesome! Always available for any questions we had. We would book again!

30th birthday Trip

This villa was absolutely beautiful, the pictures do not do it justice. I found this property on TikTok and I’m so glad I booked it. There were a total of 6 of us and it’s more than enough space. The master bedroom has the most gorgeous view & one of the other rooms has a really cool photo-op on their patio area. This villa is very close to the airport and close to a lot of the different restaurants/night life. Keep in mind, this is a condo so you there are people above you and on the other side of you but this wasn’t an issue for us. Just something to note, the pool is quite deep, we weren’t expecting the water to go up to our heads while being on our tippy toes but that was okay. Overall I would definitely recommend for a girls trip, couples trip or even a family vacation.

Very lengthy review!!

This was a family trip and my family and I were hoping that our experience at this house would be wonderful, but it was not. Before arriving, the property manager reached out with information about where the house was located and what time we should check in. Although we were given location, we were never given the full address or the door code to get into the complex, so our driver had to continuously drive around and call the property manager to ask for that information. 15-20 minutes later the property manager came and introduced herself to us, let us know that the property had just been cleaned that day and that the cleaning lady would come every two days to make sure the house was cleaned for us. We acknowledged and thanked her for letting us onto the property earlier than the time they allowed folks to check-in! Soon after the property managed left, myself and my guests began to wipe down the counter tops in the kitchen and noticeably saw dirt coming off on our Clorox wipes, which indicated that the place was not fully cleaned that day. We experienced an infestation of ants and saw a humongous cockroach crawling inside of the property while we were there. The cleaning lady never came to clean until the last day that we were there. The microwave did not work properly, the coffee maker machine was disgustingly dirty and the espresso machine was broke.The property manager knew all of this and promised to have someone come and fix the these things, but no one ever came.

Wonderful ocean front condo

Our family of five adults had a wonderful stay at the oceanfront condo. The location was great and the condo was well appointed, comfortable, modern, and clean. The infinity pool overlooked the ocean and it was nice hearing the waves all day. The island is small enough to visit other beaches and restaurants, on both sides. It was easy to rent a car and navigate the island. We enjoyed spending the late afternoons outside on the patio and in the pool watching the sailboats pass and the beautiful sunsets. We would definitely stay here again!

Best view in St. Maarten!

The view from the patio was stunning and was a great location to see all the planes landing in the nearby airport. You really couldn’t ask for more from the infinity pool to the sound of the crashing waves. It was simply the best view in St. Maarten and we looked forward to returning to the condo after day trips to the beach. I would definitely book this condo again in the future. Thank you Jonathan for your prompt responses and being so accommodating. It was very kind of you to allow us to check out a couple of hours late (due to our late flight) and thank you again for dropping off the beach umbrella and the beach chairs to use at beaches. One negative impression I have was with Stacey, the concierge. She was not at the house when we arrived and then she was there for barely 2 minutes to drop off the key and left so quickly that I didn’t even get to meet her. We had to figure out everything for ourselves. Some text messages to Stacey were replied the next day and some even went unanswered when asked about needing more supplies. Overall, the view from the patio will live in your dreams and have you looking for every excuse to return to the Anchor House!
