Luxury Villa w Spectacular Ocean Views, private pool/Hottub, Walk to Beach

Open air tropical living in this French style villa boasting expansive ocean views of dawn beach, tintamarre, st. barths and saba (225%) from all rooms. Villa Valhalla is just a short walk to Dawn Beach and the JW Marriott Resort where you can enjoy famous island cocktails and relax poolside. Our housekeeper, Catherine, is a treasure and will meet you upon arrival, cater to your every need and is available to cook a memorable Caribbean style meal at the house.
Valhalla is located on the quiet side of the island, in a gated community, on a beautiful hill overlooking the ocean and ensuring complete privacy. Our house is designed for pure relaxation. Enjoy your morning coffee with a freshly baked croissant from the local french bakery while relaxing on the shaded patio enjoying the views which just might include some frolicking humpback whales. Soak up the sun on our chaise lounges on the pool deck or soak your worries away in the Jacuzzi hottub. Valhalla turns magical in the evening with soft lighting around the outdoor dining area and pool as you overlook the beach and the lights of Oyster Pond. Cool oceans breezes make outdoor living comfortable. Large open floor plan includes living/dining room area with cathedral ceilings connecting to kitchen with ocean views. Pocket sliding glass doors that disappear into the wall create the feeling of living outdoors, allowing ocean breezes to sweep through the house as you move from inside the house to private deck and swimming pool area.

There is also a table area inside pool (plastic glasses only please!!) Large lawn provides additional sunning and recreation area.

Beautiful villa with amazing view

Beautiful property, the view is amazing. Communication was very good and everyone took great care of the property while we were there. Host left us a wonderful welcome basket full of goodies, Cleaning service excellent, pool service and Pierre was delightful to converse with.We had just a little difficulty finding the address the first time because the GPS says the house number is 33 but in the villa, the number has 45. But that was minor and we had a wonderful time!!!!We were a group of 4 adults ( 1 couple and 2 singles)

Family Adventure

Perfect Villa for our family of 6 adults and one 4 year old. Housekeeper Catherine does a great job maintaining the Villa and is also a wonderful chef. She prepared and served a four course Thanksgiving dinner that we all loved. A few problems with air conditioning and the hot tub were handled by the property manager Pierre as well as could be expected. Villa needs to upgrade beach chairs but otherwise is very well equipped. We’ll definitely be back!

Great property, very comfortable and clean. Pool was perfect! Short hike to Dawn beach. Roads are a bit challenging to drive but a car is a must. Host is awesome and very easy to communicate with and is very accommodating. Pool service every day and housekeeping 2xs a week. Will definitely be back.

Ok, first and foremost, Mr. Pierre is the man. He is the property manager and he did not disappoint. Ms. Daphne is an excellent communicator. Ms. Catherine is sweet and informative. Location… YOU WILL NEED A CAR AND SOMEONE WHO IS NOT AFRAID TO DRIVE. The roads are steep, curvy and some are not in the best condition. But the house will make it worth the drive.

The perfect vacation spot

Our family needed a location for rest and relaxation, with the ability to walk to the beach an easy access to the rest of the island for exploration. Villa Valhalla exceeded these expectations is all ways, with the sole exception of there not being a supermarket within walking distance - or a 5 minute drive. But nevertheless, all had a gratifying and relaxing week.

Incredible views and great location

We had an amazing stay at Villa Valhalla! Daphne, the property manager answered all of our questions and created a helpful information package that helped us make the most of our visit. The house and its location are absolutely breathtaking. Our group of 10 people (3 families) couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Even though our flight was delayed, meaning we didn’t arrive until around 8:30 PM, Catherine, the lovely housekeeper, was there waiting at the community security gate to guide us to the house and give us a tour. When we opened the doors and saw the ocean shimmering in the moonlight before us, we were completely in awe. Catherine had thoughtfully prepared a generous welcome basket with snacks and a bottle of wine, which was such a nice touch. The house was impeccably clean and well-maintained, and it felt so comfortable, like home. We ended up cooking most of our dinners at the house so we could enjoy the incredible views, pool, and hot tub. Homere, the pool and garden manager, was friendly, quiet, and very respectful. Pierre, the house manager, stopped by the day after we arrived to check in and make sure everything was going well. We went on a Kayak tour to Pinel Island one day and when we returned, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the house and our rooms had been refreshed with clean towels. What a thoughtful touch! The walk to Dawn Beach is a short stroll downhill, and we were on the beach within minutes. We wholeheartedly recommend Villa Valhalla

Beautiful Island Home

We loved staying on this property! The views are absolutely gorgeous. We were highly impressed that the kitchen had been updated from the pictures listed and was great for entertaining our large family. The back patio and pool were our favorite place to start and end the day, the breeze and view of the ocean were so relaxing. The beach you can walk to from the house was a nice beach with a little bar you can sit at. You could just hang at this beach for the week or if you like to explore, I recommend renting a car like we did and check out a different beach each day.

Gorgeous views, wonderful family vacation

We just spent Christmas week at this fabulous home. Loved the pool and the views. Home was spotless, up to date and perfect for our family with adult children. Easy spaces to hang out in and just relax. Daphne was helpful before we arrived and Ken and Catherine answered any questions we had while there. We ventured to beautiful beaches on a few days but were content to stay at the house as well. Did lots of meal cooking at home with our group of 7 and it worked our quite well. Highly recommend this vacation home!

Amazing property!

This stay was over a year in the making (thanks Covid) but it was well worth the wait! We have visited St Maarten a few times before but this was our first time staying in a private property and in the Dawn Beach area. Daphne and Catherine are both super helpful, easy to communicate with and we never had any problems getting in touch. The property itself is simply amazing...the views are incredible, the pool was wonderful, and the breeze coming off the ocean was refreshing! Honestly, Villa Valhalla was so wonderful we spent about 75% of our time on the deck, in the pool, or in the living room with the doors open, enjoying the breeze. It was perfect for our adult family vacation and we 1000% would love to come back again!

Dream Family Vacation

This estate is everything as described and even more than you can imagine. Pulling into Dawn Beach Estates and driving down to view the ocean is breathtaking. The views from every back window of the house are like a dream. We loved the entire house. Every guest was happy with their room and amenities. We used the pool and hot tub every day. The kitchen supplied us with anything we could have needed. Our quick trip over the back road to the bakery was exciting. The house is located central to everything on the island. Dawn Beach is beautiful and quiet and the walk is easy enough for the entire family. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. 7 days isn’t enough! Highly recommend this house for anyone looking to relax and explore St Martin!

Beautiful view!

My family and I spend 8 days at Villa Valhalla after Christmas. Daphne was so flexible - allowing us to alter our dates after we had some trouble with flights. She also made great recommendations for a New Years Eve event at Orient Beach. The villa is fantastic and the open doors and constant cool sea breezes made it idyllic. Highly recommend the lolos in Grand Case and Marigot, as well as Oasis Grill. Only hiccup to our trip was a pizza order to Mamas that never arrived on our first night 🙁 and some travel delays at SXM - which is just the way of the world right now with COVID protocols and crazy weather. Recommend getting a rental car as grocery stores and restaurants are generally 15-20 minutes away. But, the beach bar at the Westin is only a 7 minute walk. Would highly recommend Villa Valhalla to all!

Beautiful home, Stunning View!

We stayed at Villa Valhalla with our 3 teenage kids and another family of 4. The house was beautiful, clean, well stocked with stunning views! Plenty of room for us all. It’s located in a safe and quiet neighborhood overlooking Dawn Beach. Everything was as stated from the website, except the kitchen has been updated and looks great. We had excellent communication before and during the trip. We were able to walk to the beach, and had dinner at the new JW Marriott. It was nice to have a close option on a night we didn’t want to drive or cook. We have nothing but great things to say about everyone who helps care for the home, all so pleasant to talk to. They were very accommodating to us. We have stayed on the island before and did feel this was a nice location, split between the French and Dutch side so other than the airport, most restaurants and beaches we wanted to visit were no more than 20 minutes from us by car. We personally love renting a car to see the whole island on our vacations. We also love a nice, quiet spot to come back to each evening and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house, using the pool and hot tub all week. You won’t be disappointed with this house, would definitely recommend!

Amazing vacation home!

We did our best to get out and explore, but spent a-lot of quality time at the Villa as well. My Dad (turning 70 this year) and my 2 year old daughter enjoyed the pool at least once each day. We went to bread and butter for fresh croissants and pastries almost every morning as well, and my mother couldn’t get over how delicious the fresh baked goods were. This is listed in the house description, but we had a pretty scary experience driving down the steep hill during a short rain downpour so please heed that warning and take an alternate path or stop for a cup of coffee while the road dries! Check the tread on the rental car tires as well. The host responded very quickly to every question that we had. We were disappointed that the in home cooking experience wasn’t available anytime during our stay, but there is no shortage of great food across the island. We definitely recommend staying at Villa Valhalla if you are looking for a quiet and luxurious way to spend time with friends and family.
