Stay at Villa Kea

A superb holiday. House is in a fabulous location close to beach, restaurants and shopping. Well equipped with everything needed for a week’s stay, including electric adapters. Wonderful private pool. Scrupulously clean. Also, Maly is the ideal host, extremely responsive, courteous and informative. All in all maybe the best house we have ever rented. Highly recommended.

Beautiful home, perfectly located

This was our 7th trip to St. Martin and the first time we had stayed somewhere other than the Grand Case Beach Club, and obviously first time renting a private home. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the house — clean, comfortable, welcoming and well maintained. We immediately felt at home.

A Triumphant Return

We had , prior to Hurricane Irma, been going to St. Martin several times a year for nearly 20 years.Going back, and staying at Villa Kea, was a very heart-warming experience. We've stayed in many Villas but Villa Kea had-for the very first time ever- the absolutely best, sharpest kitchen knives we have seen in a rental. Bravo!Maly is also very sharp and was a delight to deal with!!

Great Villa Kea

We enjoyed our stay at Villa KEA very much. From the original booking to checking out, the property manager Maly, was available to answer all questions, make recommendations and supply information about the house and the area which was greatly appreciated. We LOVED the short walk to the beautiful Orient beach. We thought we would explore other beaches but we fell in love with the gorgeous beach and water that we never left. The service at KKO beach bar and restaurant was exceptional. The guys had our chairs/umbrellas waiting for us each day and drink service was available all day. The quick walk to Orient Village for dinner was a great way to finish off each day. Villa Kea met all our expectations. It was clean and supplied everything we needed for a fun, restful vacation. We highly recommend this Villa.

PERFECT stay at Villa Kea

Our family of five stayed here for a week in December and it was just perfect. The house is spotlessly clean and airy, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen nice - the brand new grill was a bonus - and the two bathrooms modern. The plunge pool is just lovely after time at the beach. We loved relaxing in the afternoon in the living room with the fan on and the doors open. It is a two minute walk to Orient Bay beach and a five minute walk to the restaurants and shops at Orient Bay. Maly, our host, was attentive and very responsive, even finding us someone to help when our car had a flat tire. We had the most relaxing time staying here and would absolutely come back again.

Perfect Stay

We had the best time in Orient Beach and this villa made it perfect! It is a beautiful place and the four of us had plenty of space. The pool was incredible for times you just wanted to relax. Everything we needed was in the villa and we appreciated the beers that were in the fridge upon our arrival. Maly was quick to respond to any questions I had and we appreciated her showing us around when we arrived. Steps to the beach and the village-you really don’t need a car unless you want to explore(which we did). But if not, there are plenty of restaurants, shops, and a market right around the corner. We will definitely be back!

Fabulous Vacation

Villa Kea was exactly like the description and the location was perfect. We could walk to the beach each day and even for dinner at one of the many restaurants in the center of Orient Beach. The pool was a cool relief after a hot day on the beach. Maly gave us many restaurant and shopping recommendations. She was available and very responsive when we had any questions. We can’t wait to book our vacation next year to St. Martin.

Just spent one week in this amazing property. The accommodations were wonderful. Walking distance to the village which has everything you need including a market and incredible restaurants. We had 6 adults and enjoyed plenty of space. The pool was great in the afternoon after walking back from the beach which is steps away. The property manager was amazing and gave great recommendations for dining , activities and a driver. This vacation home is truly paradise!

Fabulous Stay at Villa Kéa

This villa is very well located and is exactly as shown in the photos. It is clean and well stocked for kitchen and dining needs. All the linens were supplied and in great condition. The beds were very comfortable. The rooms have air conditioning if you need it. Maly was a great communicator and helped us by quickly answering all of our questions. We walked along the beach to dinner most nights but (with a car) there is a Super U nearby for all your grocery needs. We would definitely go back to Villa Kéa thanks to Maly!

The 3br 2b villa is lovely. Spacious, comfortable, wonderful pool area and outdoor dining, all within one block walk to beach and 10 min walk to all the best restaurants of the area. The property manager Maly was great - a local for many years so take ALL her suggestions to heart! She also happily will make reservations/plans for you too. The house is well equipped with what you need to eat at home (gas grill was a huge plus) yet you can be to a restaurant in under 10 min via a stroll on the beach. Truly a lovely experience that was relaxing and comfortable.

Wonderful Stay at Orient Beach

Villa Kea was the perfect location for our trip to St. Martin this year. Having been to the island a few times before, we were familiar with the area and excited to stay right in Orient Beach for a whole week. We were not disappointed! This villa is in a fantastic location with very easy access to the beach and "village" area with shops and dinning. Also a quick drive to some of our other favorite locations to visit, including Grand Case and Friars Bay. Having our own pool was amazing and we used it daily. We loved the property and the well appointed and clean villa - it had absolutely everything we needed to feel like a true home away from home. Maly was a wonderful host who was always quick to respond to my questions and very helpful with anything we needed, from arranging pre-departure COVID tests to securing reservations for dinner and everything in between. We cannot wait to return:)
