A breath of fresh air right on the sea - relax and enjoy!
WELCOME TO PUERTA AL MAR! As you step inside, you’ll be greeted by a beautifully remodeled interior with local artwork and modern design. The spacious living area offers breathtaking panoramic views of the crystal-clear waters of the Caribbean Sea - even from the front door - and acts as central living/play space for fun and relaxation. Imagine getting lost just sitting in your comfy chair taking it all in! The property sits right on the sea - so there is nothing between the house and the ocean, except clean fresh air and lots of sun! We spot colorful sailboats, nearby islands, fish, birds (it's called Pelican Key for a reason!) and lots of sun drenched rays every single day!
Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, which provides privacy and convenience, and has its own story to tell. There are two master bedrooms overlooking the ocean, each with a lavish bathroom, king-sized bed, and ample storage. Enjoy close-ups of sailboats and dolphins using the telescope in the second master. Test your scouting skills with the knot collection on the wall. The third bedroom contains an old nautical map for exploration. We challenge you to find the hidden bathroom in the Palm Bedroom! No cheating!!
The heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line appliances and a generous island, perfect for preparing delicious meals to enjoy on the outdoor dining terrace. Step outside to the expansive pool deck, where you can bask in the sun, take a refreshing dip in the infinity pool, or unwind in the shaded lounge area. For those inclined to entertain or engage in fine culinary arts, the pantry contains a second refrigerator, sink and dishwasher.
When it’s time to relax, the villa’s outdoor lounge area and hammock provide the ideal setting for unwinding while listening to the soothing sounds of the ocean. Watch pelicans and gulls soaring on the wind before they dive for fish, as well as the occasional hummingbird. An outdoor shower is located near the pool for your convenience and enjoyment.
Pelican Key is a prime location, offering proximity to world-class dining, shopping, and entertainment. Whether you’re looking to explore the vibrant nightlife of St. Maarten or simply revel in the serenity of your private oasis, this villa is the perfect base for your next island vacation.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 5.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Family vacation ages 23-85
Beautiful villa directly on the ocean. Constant breeze and no mosquitoes! We enjoyed the gourmet kitchen and spacious interior. Only suggestion is for a handrail down the steps to the pool and clear markings on edges of the steps. The outdoor deck and seating is great but pool deck difficult to access for elderly and not good for young children. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this property.

Island Time
Puerto Al MarThis place truly encompasses all you want for an island stay. Within walking distance of a small grocery, dining and souvenir shopping mixed with an incredible view. The pics of the house are spot on. From the moment you enter the front door you are swept away to island time. The main living area looks out over the pool and the ocean. The ocean breeze keeps insects away and makes for a cool patio retreat no matter the temp. The photographs you will take of the sunrises and sunsets from the patio make it appear you are a professional. Do yourself a favor and book this place before the word gets out. It is magical.
