I have been to St. Maarten 3 times and prefer the Dutch side. I did not stay at the villa but I was walking the beach (Simpson Bay) which is gorgeous and met the owner of the villa. He showed me around the place. It was spotless, upgraded everything including granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances etc.. I will definitely stay at one of Gordon's places next time I go to St. Maarten. P.S. I found the best shells there!

We just returned from a wonderful week at Ocean's Edge and we cannot wait to return. I hesitate to even write this review as I don't want everyone to discover it! The beach is literally steps out of the door and the view is unbelievable. The on site manager, Gordon, was wonderful; everything was available to ensure we had a perfect vacation. We are lizards and enjoy lying and walking on the beach, so we do not venture out for shopping,sightseeing or even dining much. We spent most of our time at our condo, on the deck, on the very private beach or in the perfect water. The was the place for us: two cold Montanans who needed the sun and sand. Thank you Ocean's Edge. See you in 2015 for 2 weeks!

My husband and I booked a last-minute vacation to Sint Maarten to celebrate the upcoming arrival of our first child. A week at Ocean's Edge was EXACTLY what the doctor prescribed. From my first inquiry through our departure, the management, owners and property mangers of Ocean's Edge were nothing but professional and helpful. The condo was exactly as described (and in fact, in our opinion, was even better than we expected). The unit is directly on the beach, was very clean, and has everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay (towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, picnic tables, pots & pans, etc.). We had grand plans to explore more of the island (this being only our second trip to Sint Maarten), however the condo was so relaxing and convenient that we almost never left "our" beach. Simpson Bay has a great variety of restaurants and bars to explore, however some of our favorites were Karacter (only a short walk down the beach from the condo), SkipJacks, Pizza Galley and Zee Best. The condo also has a charcoal grill, so we grilled out on our own on occasion. The beach was very private, with only a handful of other people near us at any time. For us, this was the perfect location. I would definitely recommend Ocean's Edge, and plan to return again in the near future (as a family of three!). Thank you again for such a relaxing escape.

Please don't believe the negative reviews of Ocean's Edge Condos. I had a lot of questions before I booked our condo (2B) and Tiffany answered my questions via emal right away. I could have called her on the phone as well. We were given excellent directions and found the condo with no problem. Upon entering the condo we were amazed!.. The inside looked better than the pictures. The condo was immaculate with everything you needed and then some. There were books, movies on vhs and dvd, flashlights in case of an island power outage and even binoculars. We had a beautful beach side deck with three umbrellas, table and chairs and two padded lounges. There was a beach cooler, a beach raft and even two foam surf boards. Gordon, the property manager met us about an hour after we arrived. He gave us a quck but thorough tour of the condo and it's ammenities. He gave us tips on where to do any grocery shopping which by the way I didn't know there was a closer super market than the one I had found. He stopped by once to check on us. He was not a pest, just concerned that we were having a good time. He was available by phone 24/7. This was home away from home. The only bad thing I can say was we had to leave. We will come back to St. Maarten and Ocean's Edge Condos is the only place we would stay.

We first stayed at Oceans Edge in 2008 in a unit that faced the road behind the condo as well as the runway. While the view certainly lacked something, the unit more than made up for it: comfortable furnishings, well stocked kitchen, beach toys, towels, chairs, internet, phones, etc. After vacationing in other locations, we decided to go back in 2011 and rent one of the beachfront units and stayed in 1D for 7 days. What can I say about the view? Waking up, walking into the living room, opening the drapes--gorgeous sand, beautiful turquoise water and the biggest yachts I had ever seen! The units were just as nice if not more so than the rear and we felt at home immediately. Gordon, the on-island manager was extremely helpful and provided lots of great information about Simpson Bay and the island in general. As soon as we got home, we booked for this past April. We stayed in the next door unit, 2B, for 10 days, sharing the view for a part of the time with gcp1977 (how were the cigars?) and hated having to leave. I'm not sure where the negative reviews are coming from but Oceans Edge now only owns and is responsible for the two lower beach front units-both of which are in immaculate shape and as of this season have a brand new deck to replace what was lost in Hurricane Luis. The location can't be beat with restaurants, bars, nightclubs all within a 5 -10 minute drive, a great little restaurant a short walk down the beach and the ocean literally just a few steps away. We'll be back next April!!

We just got home from our most recent trip to Oceans Edge. First visits were for a week at a time. Then it was 2 week visits and this past trip was a 3 weeker. The condo sits in the middle of Simpson Bay and has a beautiful view of the water. You can see sailboats, large yachts and cruise ships coming and going as well as nice view of neighboring islands (Saba + St. Eustacius) This year the owners added a wonderful deck for the 2 beachfront units and it was delightful to sit outside for morning coffee and eat outside under the stars at night. You step off the deck to white sand and easy access to the gentle waters of Simpson bay just steps away. We stayed in Unit 1D and our friends stayed in the next door unit 2B. Each unit is unique to itself, but each is more than fully equiped with what most anyone could expect. Free internet access, free calls to the US, and a cell phone for use on the island are a very big plus for staying here. Our units were very clean when we arrived and we had cleaning service twice a week. (The cleaning gals were the best we have ever had and we travel to a lot of different islands) The property manager (Gordon) stopped by on on first day just to make sure everything was in order and even came by one night to make sure we knew where the candles were when there was a brief power outage on the island. We would highly recommend Oceans Edge Beachfront Condos and are already planning a return trip in 2013.

I was just on the web site getting ready to book my next stay at Oceans Edge Condos when I decided I should write a review. We have stayed at Oceans Edge for the last 6 years. The condos are clean, well maintained and beach accessible. Each year we are pleasantly surprised by the new upgrades that have been made. In the last few years a few things that have been done are: granite countertops, new furniture, new deck, totally new tile bathrooms, We will continue to stay there, as it is right on the beach and close to everything. This place is awesome and anyone would not be disappointed. We call it our Island home. J&D

Upon arrival it was a little deceiving but after about 30 seconds inside the condo...WOW. We rented a ground floor, beachfront unit and found it was everything that was described and more. The inside of the condo was modern, clean, and spacious. The kitchen was stocked with everything you needed to enjoy a romantic dinner on your own deck overlooking the sea. The beach was ours, the ocean was ours. This was by far, the best vacation we’ve ever had. We highly recommend Oceans Edge to couples of all ages wanting a private, romantic getaway. We will return!

Do yourself a favour and stay away! The photos I attach will say it all. There is nothing "upscale" about these shabby loooking Condos they are overrated and way overpriced. The glossy trip advisor reviews never show accurate photos, I will try to set the record straight with up-to-date photos and save someone the upset and disappointment when arriving at this run-down 8 unit block. Beware the naked neighbor (who apparently lives in a shack behind the Condos). Let the photos do the talking.....

Response from OceansEdgeOwner, Manager at Ocean's Edge Condos
Responded May 31, 2012
Thank you for taking the time to post this review. However we can not locate your name/date as staying with us in any condo during the years of 2010, 2011, or 2012. Plus there are no inside condo pictures on your review, which makes us believe you did not actually stay at Oceans Edge, but just took pictures of a building scheduled for maintenance in the near future. We encourage reviews from past guests on TripAdvisor, as it is a super way for future guests to understand their choices here on Sint Maarten, as well as confirm our efforts of providing a quality vacation experience, directly on the beach, for a reasonable fee. TripAdvisor is a great tool for the traveling public to go by...so much so we proudly display their logo on our own website. The building is scheduled to being painted this summer, as it is done every 36 months due to the property being directly on the beachfront. However the interiors of the beachfront condos are very upscale as the TripAdvisor pictures show, and past verified guests seem to enjoy them immensely. Have a lovely day!

Just got home from our fouth year, renting at Ocean's Edge. Each year has been longer and next year we are going back for a month. We have stayed in both of the ocean front patio units and found them to be everything that was advertised, they are well maintained, equipped and managed well. The booking is easy and the on site manager, Gordon, is nice and helpful. They just added a 16 foot deck to the existing patio which essentially gives you just that more living space. The only reason I hesitate to write this review is because others will find it......but that is life on the island.
