I can't wait to go back. Visited: May 2006 Posted by muncy2219 We stayed with friends of ours, and we can't wait to go back. Everything we needed was close by, and the view was wonderful. The beaches were only minutes away and they were beautiful. The weather was 85 and sunny the whole time we were here, and the staff was available when we needed them. The airport noise did not bother us at all, and the pool was refreshing when we were laying out on the deck. We are already talking about when we'll go back. 2 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful? This was a beautiful villa, and I had a wonderful experience! Visited: February 2006 Posted by janedintaman Situated very near Princess Juliana airport, it was wonderful. The sound of the surf was louder than most of the air traffic. It was located right on the beach, and it was beautiful. The outdoor shower was such a treat! The beds were good, the kitchen was well equipped, the air conditioning worked well, and it was very clean. We had a ball! I would highly recommend Faja Lobie. It was truly a place we want to return to! 2 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful? Faja Lobie was not relaxing. Visited: December 2005 Posted by noelle_f This was a beautiful villa with amazing views, but it was very loud. It was less than a football field away from the airport, and there was no escaping the loud sound of the planes taking off and landing. We were told by Caribbean Way that it wasn't a problem. But upon being in the villa for 15 minutes, it was apparent to us that this was going to be a problem. Also, the pool was less than desirable. It was merely a plunge pool and its location got very little sun. Also, if you are traveling with young children, this is not a safe place. There were no railings between the deck and the five-foot drop to a very rocky beach. Also, the beach was not very inviting. We drove the 30 minutes to Anse Marcel and Orient Beach. Most important: whoever stays in the back bedrooms will not be able to sleep since that was the part of the house that faced the runway. You can actually see the jets from that window. Overall, it would be more appropriate for those who are looking for a place to crash and go elsewhere for activitites. It was not a villa that invites you to lounge by the pool. 2 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful? This was an absolutely wonderful villa. Visited: June 2004 Posted by kmack We had a wonderful time staying at this villa. The pictures did not do it justice. It was also in a very nice section of St. Maarten, and was close to restaurants and other things. 3 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful? Everything was as promised! It was even better in reality. Visited: February 2004 Posted by jsmith2957 This was a piece of paradise. They had an outstanding layout allowing gathering of our party (six), while accommodating privacy with three bedroom/baths. We had an ocean view, beach access, pool, amenities that were all excellent. It was in a good location on an island. It was near the beach, grocery, restaurants and casinos. It was also near the airport, but we didn't mind it with the strong surf sound. It still seemed very private. Although there were rocks at the edge of the beach, there were a few good access ways. It also provided good wave riding. My only comment is: need more in kitchen-coffee mugs, pan lids, etc. All in our party definitely would like to return. 1 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful? A comfortable accommodation with great views and a helpful staff. Visited: December 2001 Posted by rkent We enjoyed Faja Lobie so much that we are returning this December. We had a wonderful view of cruise ships going by in the morning, and being on the ocean was so relaxing. Plus, we didn't need to go far to take a morning swim. The plunge pool was great for cooling off. We can't wait to return! 1 users found this review helpful. 0 found this review unhelpful. Did you find this helpful?
