The Estates at Porto Maho invite St. Maarten’s legendary landscape into the privacy and serenity of your own home. Airy and minimalist, the architecture knows when to be discrete, from see-through stairs in the main hall to a second-story skywalk across a courtyard garden. And with island verve, it also makes bold design statements, such as the silvery pavilions shading the teak decks. The mix is as irresistible as the destination itself.
Designed by the Turin, Italy-based firm Associated Architects, each multi- million dollar residence overlooks the ocean at famed Simpson Bay Lagoon. The chic, contemporary style showcases the region’s natural beauty with skylights and floor-to-ceiling sheets of glass in many rooms. Lush palms frame panoramas of the lagoon, the Caribbean Sea and distant Anguilla.
The Estates are located close to The Maho, Cupecoy areas and to The Frenchside. The Princess Juliana International Airport, shopping, dining, and night life are a few minutes away by car. These villas are perfect for buyers that live or come frequently to Sint Maarten/ Saint Martin with guests and family. They can also possibly rent for short term.
