We LOVED staying at Jewel. From the moment we booked, the experience was amazing. Ginny was so helpful. She answered any questions we had quickly and had a great tip sheet with tons of suggestions. When we arrived, Ursala took care of anything we needed. She was fantastic. She cooked for us the first night and made the best guacamole we have ever had. We rented a car but Gizmo drove us several times and he was great. The house is just as pictured. Large spacious rooms and an amazing panoramic view. It was just perfect. We did not want to leave. I highly recommend staying at this villa! We will be back!

Wonderful Stay!
The house is exactly as advertised. View is amazing and location is relatively centralized on the island. Ursula is absolutely fantastic! She’s an amazing cook, a wonderful host and a great asset you get when renting this home! And if need a driver while visiting, definitely recommend using Gizmo which Ginny recommends. Gizmo was reliable, friendly and just wonderful overall! Island was great and our family truly had the best time and such a memorable vacation.

Fantastic Stay on One Friendly Island
My friends, family and I had a blast at this Jewel of a place. Ideally located with perfect views, the home provided the perfect getaway with enough room for us all to be comfortable and happy with our stay. It was only made better but the onsite staff member, Ursula, who helped to guide us with everything in the home and even made recommendations for restaurants and other things to do. We couldn't be happier with our stay - except that it was only one week long. We could have stayed forever. Thanks again for helping to make our group getaway a successful and relaxing one. Five Stars!!!!!

Our stay here was amazing. Ursula was gracious enough to cook for us and the food was amazing. Definitely recommend her for cooking if you need a chef while visiting. We were a mixed group celebrating several birthdays and the recommendations for the host and host manager was perfect! I look forard to visiting the island again and will definitely choose this property when staying on the dutchside! The views are amazing and I miss them already!

Island Paradise
This house is exactly what we were looking for! The views and ocean breeze are amazing. All long beds with private bathrooms made it just as comfortable for our guests as it was for us. The icing on the cake was definitely Gizmo and Ursula’s hospitality. We were chauffeured all around the island and made to feel so welcome. We can’t wait to return!!

First time to the island, and so glad we stayed at the Jewel! From the minute, you pull into the driveway you feel like you are in paradise. The house was very clean, and plenty of beds for our whole crew. Ursula is such a gift! She was so helpful, offering advice, and even cook us dinner one night!. Ginny was incredibly responsive and helpful in her advice on the island. I don’t think I would do Saint Martin again without staying here.

10 Days in Paradise
Our group just loved everything about our stay at The Jewell. Ginny, the owner, kept in constant contact with me prior to our arrival, so there were no surprises. Once there, Ursula, the on-site host was delightful. She checked on us every day, and was there to do whatever it was we needed. She cooked us a delicious barbeque chicken and ribs dinner one night, and was also great help in assisting me prepare a taco meal on our last night there. The location is great for the beautiful beaches at Dawn Bay and Orient Bay, and it was only a short car ride into Philipsburg. I would highly recommend staying at The Jewll for anyone who simply wants to relax and enjoy a very scenic stay in Paradise.

Beautiful Ocean View and Grounds
From the moment we made our reservation, the information was flowing for car rental, restaurants, beaches, directions, and suggestions to ensure our vacation was enjoyable and memorable. Ursula was very accommodating and a good cook. She took us food shopping, made us guacamole, bar-be-que chicken and arranged for us to have massages at the house. She was full of stories and made us laugh.

Stunning location and very helpful and informative host. Her recommendations and assistance in setting up transportation were critical for us to enjoy our time on island where we had never been before. House is exactly as advertised if not better. Perched above the crashing waves overlooking the sea could not have been nicer. Will be back!

Gracious Host with excellent communication
Lovely property with ocean views! The owners of the property were extremely responsive and gracious! Ursula, the onsite caretaker, was excellent! We requested that she make a dinner upon arrival as we had a long day of travel to get there and it was delicious! She offered to bake some things for us and overall went above and beyond! The owners were outstanding! We had some days of high winds, but we worked around them. Highly recommend the full day luxury catamaran snorkel trip and the ribs at Loterie Farm! Felt very welcome and at home at this property😄

Anniversary getaway
It was more breathtaking than the pictures and descriptions. It was absolutely a wonderful time. The housekeeper was magnificent and available for accompanying us around the island to show us all the places to go as well as going to the market with us. Without her we would have never gotten around as well as we did. The view of the ocean from the balconies or from the pool just allowed your mind to leave everything behind. The communication with the host was great as well. Cant say enough about it. Definitely paradise!

The views in this house our unbelievable and never get old. The home is comfortable and welcoming but doesn’t compare to how welcomed Ursula made our family feel. It is clean and very well stocked with all the important necessities. The bedroom and beds are amazing. Look no further this is the vacation home dreams are made of. Also make sure you ask if Ursula can cook for you it will be the highlight of your vacation!!! We will be returning to this property! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful home.

Great place to relax with Family and Friends
Our stay at this stunning vacation home was! From the moment we arrived, Ursuella, the host, went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. Not only is she a fantastic cook (as requested), but she’s also a meticulous housekeeper, skilled handyman, and dedicated caretaker. Her care and attention to detail were evident throughout our stay. Highlights of the Stay: Ursuella’s Expertise: Beyond cooking and housekeeping, Ursuella kept the flowers and the in-ground swimming pool maintained daily, ensuring the property looked pristine and inviting. She also provided excellent recommendations for local services like manicures and pedicures, adding a personalized touch to our trip. Keep in mind, Ursuella flips the entire house in just 4-6 hours for the next guests. To help her out, consider grabbing dinner en route to the villa on your arrival day—it worked perfectly for us after a long day of travel. The Property: The villa is beautiful, with breathtaking views that made our daily walks a pleasure. It’s the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the beauty of St. Maarten. Local Tips: Downtown is lively, but prices for taxis and vendors tend to be higher on cruise ship days. Plan accordingly to get the best value and experience. Driver Recommendation: Gizmo was our go-to driver. He not only provided transportation but also gave us great local food and activity recommendations. His city tour was absolutely phenomenal! We highly recommend this property for your next trip.

Spectacular Views!!
We had an amazing trip, and the views of this property are beyond spectacular!! Cliche as it may sound, but the pictures do not do it justice as actually being there. In addition to the views, the highlight was also having Ursula and Gizmo!! Can’t say enough about these two beautiful and amazing people. Ursula made the most delicious meal for us the 1st night, and checked in with us every day making sure everything was okay or if we needed anything. And Gizmo truly made our trip exceptional and memorable with his availability, timeliness, and all his recommendations, not to mention his charming personality and sense of humor!! And Ginny was wonderful, easy to communicate with, and was always quick with responding. Would definitely recommend this property!!

Our family stayed a week at the Jewel. The house was exactly as advertised and we all had great time. Ursula and Gizmo are a must while staying at the property. Ursula helped us with any questions and recommendations. She also cooked for us a couple of times and it was wonderful. Gizmo, our driver for the week was very punctual and full of information.

A Gem of a Time
Villa Jewel was the perfect vacation spot for our family of 11 (8 adults, 3 children). We all fell in love with the villa from the moment we walked in. The views were amazing and we all loved falling asleep listening to the wind and waves. The house was very clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Ginny was a pleasure to deal with. She was so helpful and very quick to answer any questions we had. The housekeeper Ursala, was wonderful. She was pleasant from the moment we arrived until we parted. She kept everything well cleaned and organized so we could enjoy our stay. We can't wait until we can return again.

Everything about this property and house was amazing! Every morning I woke up at 7am to take a dip in the pool and enjoy the spectacular views of the ocean and St Barts among other islands out in the distance! The house was very clean and spacious! The host Ursula was so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed! The owner of the house also suggested that we could hire a driver that she knows named Gizmo , so we took advantage of that and I have to say he was on point! Gizmo so informative of things to do and places to go and we never had to wait for his arrival as he was always on time! Our entire vacation was amazing from enjoying the stay at the house to all the beaches and restaurants we went to! I would highly recommend renting this property and enjoying a wonderful getaway to St Martin!

Amazing!!!!
Our stay was great. Ginny was responsive to us when I called about us coming to Saint Maartan because of blizzard in Iowa and gave us ideas where to stay a few days early. Ursula was very helpful and suggested places to visit. Ursula cooked us a fabulous Christmas Eve Dinner and muffins. Our house was great. The rooms were roomy and clean. Our family said it was so much better than staying on a resort. They had privacy in their rooms and enjoyed the common area of kitchen, dining and family room where we could join and visit. Nice area and table to visit outside. Gizmo drove us a few times and he was so fun and very informative. Our stay was very memorable and would recommend highly to friends and family. We had beautiful view every morning to wake up to.

Beautiful Home with Breathtaking View!
This villa is as advertised, except I would say 2 master suites and 2 nice large bedrooms, although all four couples were satisfied. The view is spectacular and the home very clean. The caretaker, Ursula, lives in her own appt on site and is wonderful. She not only keeps the home & grounds spotless but will escort you to buy groceries, make pina coladas and the best guacamole we've ever had. She cooked us an amazing meal one night. She is a "Jewel". The road to this villa is very steep and curvy and the parking is tight. We appreciated the solitude on this hillside, but you do need to drive (or cab) to dine anywhere. We would definitely rent again!
