Simpson Bay

Simpson Bay, by the Princess Juliana Airport (SXM) is a long curve of white sand beach. The wide and flat beach runs from the Royal Palm Beach Club past Marys Boon Beach Resort and further to the end towards Beacon Hill.

Although the beach is considered one of the best in St Maarten, it is frequented by few, and is well worth the visit for lovers of secluded beaches. It has some watersports, yet this part of Simpson Bay Beach is most residential and very private.

Everything Around

5 minutes from Princess Juliana International Airport and is conveniently located, just moments away, to the French border. Nearby you will find watersports, French bakeries, banks, drug stores, grocery stores, gyms, hairdressing salons, ice-cream parlours, massage centres, theatres, restaurants/bars, duty-free shopping, casinos and night entertainment. Everything within a few minutes drive.

• Food store: 5 mins walk.
• Restaurants: 10 mins walk
• Beach: 30 seconds!
• Airport: 5 mins drive
• Golf Course: Mullet Bay Golf Course within 10 mins drive

As an alternative to this, I have a beachfront penthouse in Cupecoy for sale or if you are looking for a penthouse in the middle of nightlife, then this Maho penthouse is perfect.

Review from guest

Just returned home from a fantastic 10-night stay at the beautiful Le Papillion penthouse. Everything was perfect!

We arrived at the condo and we were greeted by fabulous ocean views everywhere. She gave us a tour of the property, showed us how to work all the windows, appliances, doors, locks, air conditioning systems (separate settings for each room) and gave us a brief “lay of the land.

The property is located right on Simpson Bay and in my opinion, the nicest stretch of beach on Simpson Bay. Beautiful crystal clear water at your feet. Le Papillion rest inside a gated wall and includes private parking. The penthouse condo boasts a very modern contemporary design with lots of open space and tons of windows and sliding glass doors which really give the feeling of being outdoors and “on the water”. For convenience the property has a good size elevator that makes carrying groceries and or luggage up and down a breeze.

We were a family of 4 adults and two children (12 & 14). Each of us had our own spacious bedrooms (3 in total) each equipped with large private bathrooms with double sinks and large tiled showers. Each bathroom was fully stocked with toilet paper, organic shampoo, and towels. Lorraine, the housekeeper came to restock, clean and replenish every other day and she was a delight!

We spent several days just hanging out in front of the condo because of the beauty and convenience of where we were. There were always plenty of beach lounge chairs, upright chairs, beach towels, noodles and tubes to float on and a convenient outdoor shower to hose off sand before heading back inside.

We did rent a car, but you don’t need too. This was our second time visiting SXM in ten years, so we wanted and did quite a bit of exploring and driving around the island. We visited several beaches such as Maho, Mullet Bay, Orient, Friar’s Bay, Gallon and Happy Bay (our favorite). We also spent half a day zip lining with our kids at Loterie farm and swimming in their fresh water pool. The kids loved it. We’re not big shoppers, but we spent a little time in Philipsburg walking the strip and also spent half a day at WISP, the outdoor waterpark/ jungle gym…another great activity for the kids.

Eats…We had many great nights eating in at Le Papillion in their well-equipped kitchen. Plenty of plates, bowels, glasses, cutlery, pots, pans, blender, coffee…etc. We also had some great dinners out in Simpson Bay, Grand Case, Philipsburg and Anse Marcel.

The views from the multiple decks of this condo are pure picturesque! We spent many a night in the roof top hot tub watching planes land and take off. Truly spectacular views and space.

Simona and her crew were incredibly responsive and excellent to work with. The property is very modern, clean and you can tell, well cared for!

Thank you for such a warm and memorable vacation! We look forward to coming back soon!
