nice location Visited: July 2009 Posted by wpfund I agree with the person before us, the location was amazing. We loved Happy Bay and Friars Beach. The views from the house were beautiful and we love St. Martin in general. The only things I could add are the Jacuzzi is not hot, it's just another small pool above the main pool. We were told differently. Also we came with older children and the layout was difficult for us as well. The daily staff only speek French, this was a problem if you needed to ask for anything like pool towels. We also got "locked in" the house one day when the current went out and we had not been instructed on how to open the gate manually. The phone does not work when the power goes out so we could not call anyone, fortunately for us it came back on in a short while. This could have been a major problem had the power not come on so soon. We would go back to St. Martin again but I'm not sure where we would stay. Hi, Thanks for this . Most of the issues mentioned have been fixed I think : Jacuzzi – there is no Jacuzzi Housekeeper: she has been replaced. The new housekeeper speaks good English Caretaker: He has gone and the new housekeeper lives onsite in the caretaker's apartment Gate to manual: the new housekeeper will be able to assist guests with problems as she speaks English and lives on site Phone: I have asked the owner to change the phone to a standard model that does not need an electrical supply to operate. Thanks for the feedback and can you please add my comment onto your website as a reply to your clients feedback Many thanks and have a good weekend Lisa - Property Manager 1 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful.

This house has an amazing view, you have a perfect view of Grand Case as well as Happy Bay. The pools are really nice, a little on the small side, but if you want more swim space, the ocean is a 10 minute walk. The kitchen has all of the most up to date amenities. The locals in Grand Case are very hospitable, the restaurants serve amazing food. You have to spend a day at Friar's Bay (next to Happy Bay), great food and drinks. The bad: the house layout is odd. The main living area is on one side of the house, the 3 bedrooms are all connected on the other side, which means that you have to walk through each room to get to last room (which is the master), or you have to go outside to get to the master. The "4th" room is downstairs and doesn't look like its prepared for a visitor. There is only one king bed, not 3 as was advertised when we booked. One of the rooms has a loft which opens to the living area. Since the main living area of the house is NOT air conditioned, this bedroom tends to get a little warm. The outside tile is not slip proof, you have to be very careful walking if it's wet. We dove with Octopus Divers, wouldn't recommend them. I think this house would work well for a family, but not for individual couples because of the bedroom set up. We really enjoyed our stay, would definitely return to Happy Bay. 3 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful?
