St. Martin villa expert Betsy

Know Before You Go...®

Bell’mare is a unique property located right on Dawn Beach; in fact, it’s the only home in the area with direct beach access. Recently built in 2004 and comprising 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the home is ideal for couples traveling together or for families. For larger groups (up to 6), privacy is never a concern as each room comes with its own terrace and bathroom. A full kitchen is perfect for snacks and larger meals, which can be enjoyed inside or out on the terrace. An infinity pool looks right over the ocean and is great for hot days, but you may choose to hit the beach instead for swimming and snorkeling.

Unparalleled sea views abound from all rooms in the villa...

Bell’mare is Italian for “beautiful sea” and that will be your view from this three-bedroom, three-bath villa. The home sits overlooking Dawn Beach, one of the nicest beaches on the island. Bell’mare is the only home in the gated community of Dawn Beach Estates that has direct beach access.

The home was completed in January of 2004 and was designed with vacationers in mind. The custom-built kitchen is fully supplied and has stainless steel appliances that complement the hardwood cabinetry. The furnishings are almost exclusively imported teak from Indonesia with some rattan as well. Interesting artwork and pottery can be found in every room. All of the wood in the villa (the doors, ceiling, cabinets, stairs and railings) is imported hardwood from South America.

The bedrooms were designed to be equal so the house is great for multiple couples traveling together. One bedroom is on the main living level of the villa and opens out to the pool deck. The other two bedrooms are half a flight of stairs up and half a flight down, respectively. Each of these has a private terrace. All of the bedrooms have king-size beds, air-conditioning, and large custom bathrooms featuring stone showers.

Sea views abound from all rooms in the villa. From the indoor living space, you exit through large sliding glass doors out to the covered gallery with outdoor dining and living spaces surrounding the pool area. The large pool overlooks Dawn Beach with comfortable loungers surrounding it on the sun deck. Two steps down from the sun deck brings you to the covered gazebo with loungers for relaxing in the shade. A staircase from the covered gallery leads down to the water’s edge.

With great views and the beach so close, Bell’mare is the ideal villa for your holiday.

Additional Amenities:
Gas BBQ

Villa Notes:
Alarm System at the Villa.

Nearest grocery store is the Food Fair in Madame Estate.

Wireless Internet is available in the villa; however, the connections may not be available in all areas of the villa, but confined to one area of the house. As with all utilities, the internet service is subject to interruption at anytime. You must bring your own laptop computer.

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

Guys, this Villa home was more than Outstanding and Amazing. The home was beautifully laid out, everything was super clean, the house had EVERYTHING you could need, the house keeper and concierge was involved and concerned about what made us comfortable. The home itself was beautiful. The master bedroom was the most comfortable and the most convenient. The only downside was the Bluetooth speaker did not work and even with that a simple text to the concierge got it fixed

Our representative Jean was completely involved and great. Jean did everything from ensuring I made my payment in time, arranging additional services like the mobile massage, and being available at al times. Because of Jean I will use Wheretostay from this point on regardless of the place.

Bell’mare has wonderful views. It is located in a very secure area on the island with easy driving to areas on the French and Dutch sides. The actual house was clean and well maintained with all of the extr4as that one needs. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

All personnel at WhereToStay were friendly to work with.

We are coming back! This was perfect! Beautiful villa overlooking Dawn Beach. We were able to get pretty much anywhere on the island in 20 minutes from here. Having the beach access was amazing! We walked over to the Westin outdoor bar for happy hour each evening. The villa was clean and had a nice island vibe. The concierge helped get us to and from the villa, which was great! Very close to the French side for great food and groceries! 10/10 experience with everyone involved with the villa!

Andrew helped us plan an amazing trip! Excellent service!

First I want to thank everyone involved for delivering a great vacation. The house was perfect, we couldn’t have been happier. Wheretostay delivered as advertised, Jean and their team made the vacation one we will never forget and will always be grateful for the wonderful experiences. We will definitely book our next one through you all. The house, great views, great accommodations, everything we needed was provided for us, it was so stress free just what you need for a vacation. Thanks again, we will be in touch…Dan

WhereToStay and Jean were Awesome, so refreshing knowing there is such a professional to take the stress out of planning a vacation away from us and making a dream vacation come true, thank you.

Cannot beat the size of the pool deck as with gorgeous views of Dawn Bay you’ll spend most of your time outside. Everything works great well equipped kitchen and great bath/bedroom comforts.

My wife did most of booking however she was always surprised Betsy would check in on our plans. She even provided a grocery shopping service so that we were able to not have to stop by the store on way back from airport.

Best Escape Anyone Can Have

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

This villa provided us breathtaking views to wake up to every morning on this beautiful island. The location of the villa on the Atlantic side provided us a constant tropical ocean breeze. The views were truly stunning. The dining area opened up to a spacious pool deck. We enjoyed being able to use the walkway down to the beach. Oyster Bay is just a few minutes away, highly recommend eating at the Big Fish. We private chartered the Sea Eagle with Captain Benye for a day at sea around the island. He was amazing, very knowledgeable and took us to some great snorkel spots. Money was well spent with him.
We have traveled to many islands throughout the years. We continuously go back to Shawna at Wheretostay and we have never been disappointed. We are so grateful that we have had the opportunity to experience a bit of paradise together as a family.

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

Villa Bell’mare was perfect for our needs. The bedrooms are spacious, and each provides a wonderful view. The kitchen is well stocked, and although we did not spend much time in it, the interior living area is nicely appointed. This villa is all about location and view. Sitting on the pool deck (or under the attached cabana) and watching the waves is the moment I know I have arrived on this special island.

WhereToStay.com and Andrew are both first class.

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

I just came back from our (two couples) eight-day stay at Bell’mare.  “Wonderful” sums it all up! 

The property is made for couples staying together in one villa.  There is lots of privacy, all the bedrooms are equal in size, they offer great amenities, etc.  The pool and patio area overlooking the ocean is so nice that it is a hard decision to leave the property to go visit places on the island. 

We would rent again in a minute.

It’s a wonderful villa and I would stay there again in a heart beat! It was hard to leave. The scenery is beautiful, wonderful view. Size was just right. Kitchen perfectly stocked. We absolutely loved our stay! I can’t wait to book again.

It was great working with Jean and her team. The recommendations were extremely helpful and on- point.

Villa Bell'mare was a great place to stay on St. Martin

star star star star empty-star

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

Villa Bell’mare was a great place to stay. Location location location! Well equipped home right on the beach with easy access to walk on the beach or go to The Westin. Loved having the pool and all the outside seating area.  Great way to start the moring. Enjoyed having a washer and dryer.  Being able to cook meals, mostly on the grill were an added bonus. Not having AC in the living/kitchen area were a little difficult for us Louisiana folks since we are accustomed to fully AC’d living.

WhereToStay is a great company to find rentals. Working with Shawna was easy.  Shawna responded quickly to all requests and questions about this villa. We look forward to working with her again in the future.

It was outstanding in every respect - but two things.

star star star star empty-star

Bell'mare, St. Martin villa review

This place had the best view of any place we have been, including Kauai, Carmel and Sydney. The name Dawn Beach speaks for itself. Also, the villa appointments are first rate with the best showers ever!

However, the first drawback was the lack of air conditioning in the great room/dining/kitchen. This was not a comfort concern, but a worry about how furnishings will hold up in the humidity.

The second drawback was that the drive to and from the villa at night (and it was no picnic by day, either) deterred us from much after dark activity. Even Fabulous Feasts charged a $25 delivery surcharge due to the difficult drive.

However, the quality of the property, the views and general amenities were such that we would not hesitate to choose Bell’Mare again.
