Our penthouse level apartment is a 2-bedroom, 2-1/2 bath, with living room, dining room, and kitchen with breakfast bar. The master bedroom and living room balconies provide spectacular viws of the Caribbean Sea, both the Dutch side and the French side of SXM, as well as Anguilla.

From our two balconies, you can enjoy the yacht parade to the mega-yacht harbor, while absorbing the spectacular 20-mile sunsets every afternoon at coctail hour.

Downtown Phillipsburg (the Dutch side capital city) has duty-free shopping with amazing prices on liquor (how about $5.99 for a bottle of Absolut vodka?), genuine Cuban cigars, jewelry, and electronics from all over the world. The official currency is the Guilder, but the American dollar is universally accepted.

The French side is not like being in France, it is France, but in a Caribbean climate, where almost everyone speaks some English, and everyone is friendly! Although the Euro is the official currency and used everywhere, the American dollar is also accepted; some restaurants offer a 1:1 exchange ratio (which is like getting a 33% discount for using the dollar).

Sint Maarten (Dutch) and Saint Martin (French) both offer fabulous restaurants featuring a wide range of international cuisines. Grande Case (French side) has earned the reputation of being "the gastronomic capital of the Caribbean".
