Villa Pineapple - Grand Case (Hotel Esplanade Area) 5 min Orient Bay

Villa Pineapple: Your Serene Escape in Saint-Martin
Nestled within the exclusive grounds of Hôtel l'Esplanade on the lush hills of Grand-Case, Villa Pineapple offers an unparalleled retreat with stunning views of the Caribbean Sea. Its prime location, just minutes away from pristine beaches and acclaimed restaurants, provides the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable Saint-Martin experience.
Accommodations and Amenities
Designed with comfort in mind, Villa Pineapple features quality bedding and modern conveniences, including smart TVs in all rooms and high-speed fiber optic internet. A cistern is also available, ensuring a reliable water supply during the island's occasional water interruptions.
Villa Layout
The villa spans two levels:
First Level:
• A spacious living-dining area that seamlessly connects to a fully equipped open kitchen.
• A utility room with an American refrigerator for added convenience.
• A cozy study for quiet moments.
• A dedicated TV room, which is a separate outbuilding accessible from the entrance terrace, furnished with a sofa bed—perfect for accommodating teenagers.
All living spaces are air-conditioned to ensure your comfort.
Step outside to discover a beautiful shaded terrace adjacent to the living room, where you can enjoy alfresco dining while soaking in the breathtaking sea views and mesmerizing sunsets.
Lower Level: The lower level houses the bedrooms and bathrooms, along with the inviting swimming pool:

• Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom with a shower, double sink, and a separate toilet.
• Each bedroom is equipped with air conditioning and smart TVs, ensuring a comfortable stay.
The swimming pool is easily accessible from the master bedroom and via a charming outdoor path from the living room terrace.
Location Highlights
Villa Pineapple is situated in a secure, private property, recognized as one of the most desirable locations in the Bay. You'll be just a 5-minute drive from Orient Bay, Anse Marcel, and Pinel Island, as well as within walking distance of "Petite Plage," where you can enjoy a refreshing swim in front of the iconic Creole Rock. This prime location places you in the heart of the most beautiful beaches on the French side of Saint-Martin.
Whether you're seeking relaxation, adventure, or culinary delights, Villa Pineapple serves as your perfect home base for exploring the magic of Saint-Martin.

Practical Amenities:
The villa is equipped with a water tank to ensure a constant water supply, eliminating concerns over service interruptions. Guests are provided with sheets, towels, beach towels, and hairdryers for added convenience. Adapters for U.S. phone and laptop chargers are also available to keep you connected.
Accessibility Note: Please note that the upper floor does not have toilets, and the swimming pool and bedrooms are located on the lower level, which may not be suitable for individuals with reduced mobility.
Capacity: The villa can accommodate up to 8 guests, despite having only 3 bedrooms, thanks to the sofa bed in the TV room. However, the TV room lacks a dressing room and toilet, making it more suitable for teenagers rather than young children due to its separate entrance.
We look forward to welcoming you for your next stay in Saint-Martin at Villa Pineapple!

Bugs galore …
Pictures aren’t current, deck needs replacing. Inside, we had issues with endless ants in all living areas including kitchen. While host apologized for the ants and cockroaches and came over to spray it was not nearly enough. Location and view was superb but the endless crawly creatures soured our stay. Bottom line, the house needs a thorough cleaning.

Everything pictures and comments state and more
This is a great property and opportunity to spend time with a significant other or family/friends. It is a perfect location with access to the beach, a pool at the house and access to great restaurants with a quiet laid back vibe. Grand case beach club offers water activities such as catamaran's to Anguilla for the day. The ferry for Pinel Island is a 5 minute drive. There is a great supermarket a few minutes away. The owners were wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed. I will be telling everyone I know about this place. The views from all rooms is spectacular.

Pineapple Villa
We had a wonderful stay at the Pineapple Villa in Grand Case in St Martin. The house was very comfortable with great views and convenient location. You can walk or drive 4 minutes to amazing restaurants. The area is low key and relaxing and the villa is very private. It is located in a gated area with a Hotel which we went to for massages-just a 3 minute walk. The villa is also convenient to Orient Beach area (7-9 minute drive) where you can have a great lunch and rent beach chairs for reasonable cost. Overall we loved it and will definitely be back! Veronique and her husband were wonderful to deal with and were quick to respond with any questions and made it a priority for us to have anything we needed.

Grand Views in Grand Case, St. Martin
This was our fifth visit to St. Martin, but our first time to rent a house. We have always loved staying on the French side, particularly in the village of Grand Case for its laid back vibe and proximity to some of the best restaurants in the Caribbean. Being already familiar with the town and the general location of the property, we knew it was going to be spectacular. And this was immediately confirmed upon our arrival. Veronique and Jovanie were gracious and responsive from the moment we landed, actually from before we landed, and throughout our stay. The views are spectacular from the house. The pool was larger than expected and very well maintained. The upper patio was a fantastic place to hang out, and the sliding/accordion style doors between the living room and the patio open fully to create a beautifully vibe-y indoor/outdoor experience. There was even a complimentary snack basket and bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival. The wi-fi worked great. Pretty much everything you'll need is already there. The gated neighborhood was beautifully maintained and we felt safe the entire time (both inside and outside the gate), and we took full advantage of the L'Esplanade's little nature trail down to the pristine Petite Plage beach (take the nature trail down to the road, turn right, walk a bit and you'll see the beach access just past the GCBC gate). I could go on and on and on. Great trip. Beautiful house. Highly recommend! There were only 2 of us, but easily sleeps 6+.

Paradise in Grand Case
Wow. Everything about this listing is true. Amazing house on the hill overlooking Grand Case. Views from everywhere. The host was fantastic, she added us to WhatsApp from the time we booked the house. We had constant contact leading up to our stay. Questions like renting a car to doing a day sailing trip were all answered with in minutes of asking. She even met us on our arrival at the house and paid for our taxi as we didn’t realize they wouldn’t take credit card. She even made a change in our booking dates with out any issues at all. We only stayed as a couple but the house would be perfect for three couples or perhaps a family. The house was set up with everything you could ever want. Even a welcome pack with wine, chocolate, local rum, 6 large bottles of water and chips. It’s our third time staying in Grand Case and this was by far our favorite option of staying in the town. We are foodies so love dining out in Grand Case. Le Pressoir and L’Auberge Goirmande were our two fancy nights out. But we found Nice Sxm for another more budget night out. Famous bbq at Lolo’s of course is a must. We found great Brunch options at Le temps, Rainbow Cafe, Grand Case Beach Club or just a croissant at Madison Chocolat. Also we found the best place to spend the day by the beach was at Captain Frenchy. $15 per group to hire deck chairs with umbrellas byo towels. $10 cocktails, wine bottles from $25 and great lunch options all delivered to the beach at your deck chair or in the ocean.

Perfect spot - 2 couples on vacation
Beautiful home, wonderful space indoors and outdoors, dedicated parking, great location to walk to Grand Case restaurants (big hill to walk off those delicious meals!), very well equipped kitchen, appliances, bedrooms and bathrooms, beach towels, pool with lounge furniture, gorgeous view especially at sunset! We’ve been vacationing for many years on SXM and love staying in the Grand Case area - this spot is excellent and we hope to stay there again! Thank you to Veronique, she was a wonderful host!

Another wonderful stay!
This is our 2nd time staying at Veronique's property, and it was even better than the previous stay. She had added some upgrades to the pool area, and the wifi was improved, but all the other elements were just as good as before, which means they were just as wonderful. The view is magnificent, and the proximity of so many excellent French restaurants is a great bonus. I can't imagine a better location or a more comfortable and welcoming place to stay.

Grand Case Villa for the perfect family stay!
This was our second family vacation at this amazing villa in the wonderful French village on Grand Case Bay. Sitting on the hillside, with 180 degree views of the bay, the house offers something for everyone in our family group. While my daughter and her husband love the nearby beach, my son and his wife appreciate heading out in the car to visit other nearby towns. My friend and I love walking the town in the morning for exercise and reading quietly by the pool or on the deck for the afternoon. We all love walking to town and dining together at the fabulous restaurants of this small but amazing town. Not only is the villa wonderful, but Veronique and her husband are outstanding hosts in every way. We left yesterday and I want to go back tomorrow!

Beautiful hike overlooking the sea in an excellent location
My family and I (me, my husband and 2 young adult children19 and 21) spent Christmas week in this lovely home Veronique and Francois- the owners- could not have been more accommodating. They met us upon arrival and were incredibly responsive to any and all of our needs. Also - prior to arrival Veronique gave excellent suggestions as to where to go and what to do on the island. The home is clean, spacious, air conditioned and perfectly appointed with 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms and an additional den across the vestibule. The living room and kitchen are open and comfortable. The setting was especially welcoming for the few evenings we stayed home and cooked and lounged. By far the best part of the home was the spacious terrace overlooking the sea, the Grand Case nightlife and homes speckled in the hills. We spent many mornings having coffee and baguettes with butter and jam and many early evenings watching sunsets with cocktails there. The island itself was full of beautiful beaches and excellent places to eat. We even went snorkeling one day at Creole Rock but must have gone out on a day where the water was murky and fish hiding! Nonetheless being out on the boat and swimming around was fun. We got massages at T Spa right at the bottom of the hill that were excellent and reasonably priced. We loved coco beach in Orient and lunch at Kalatua in Simpson Bay. The only thing we didn’t do was go to a Casino - maybe next time. I highly recommend this home and can’t say enough good things about the hosts.

Beautiful home in a perfect location
My family of 4, with teenagers stayed for the second time at this wonderful property. We stayed back in June 2022 and while there, we booked the same property for December 2022. The house is just beautiful. The house is so nicely decorated. The view is just simply amazing!! You are overlooking grand case. The property is up a hill so you get great views. But, you are so close down town, to all the amazing French restaurants and shops. Best location ever. Veronique, is such a wonderful hostess. She is always available if you have any questions. We were welcomed by a lovely basket of food and Prosecco. And the day we were leaving. She brought us chocolate croissants, and regular croissants, That were to die for. We are always sad to leave but we will be back!!

Perfect location Grand Case
The home was wonderful and the view was outstanding. We have been coming to St Martin for many years and we feel like we found a home that was truly worthy of repeating. As you can tell from the pictures, it is up on a hill overlooking Grand Case. We walked to dinner most evenings. The home has a large Master and everything was in great shape. Our hostess was waiting for us on arrival and did a thorough job of explaining the property features. She also quickly came to our rescue when I misplaced our house key at a restaurant across the island.

Closer to Heaven - Host is an Angel
I couldn't believe previous glowing reviews that i had read- until I experienced Villa Pineapple/ Villa Veronica for myself!!! I just returned from 10 days in this Oasis in the hills of Grand Case- majestic, warm and welcoming and I still feel as if I was in a dream! From the moment Veronica accepted my inquiry the good experience began. Host: I have NEVER had a more welcoming host. She greeted me with a welcome basket that transcended awesome and she was ever present to meet any need ANY time you needed her. She is the kindest sweetest host and willing to grab groceries, bring mosquito soothing ointment or provide direction to services, restaurants or suggestions! VILLA: oh my Gosh!! This sprawling oasis with soo many little places to hide-away. It was just my son and I but having the ability to give a 23 year old numerous private places is priceless!! The pool: pristine!! The terraces- 2 of them- perfect for the yoga I did daily!! ( Ask Veronique to connect you with Audrey- yogi extraordinaire who comes to the Villa) There is every device, technology and gadget to suit everyone and the view going down the driveway first thing in the morning is a blessing!! LOCATION: you want it? You can find it within 10 min walk or drive! Spa- beach- restaurant- shoppibg- activities!!! All there! I am counting the days until I return to the Villa and can once again hear Veonica say: “ This is now your home”!!💖💖💖💖

Chic, private villa with incredible views
I can't recommend Villa Pineapple highly enough. The space itself is airy and light, with plenty of room for a family or couples/friends. The villa is very well appointed, from the decor to the stocked kitchen to the perfect little pool deck. The location is really ideal--super private and secluded but easy walking distance to petite plage and restaurants. This is a rare location where you can actually skip renting a car--we were able to get everywhere without one. (Only potential issue is the hill is quite steep--tough for little kids or anyone with mobility issues.) Véronique is the loveliest host, very communicative and sweet and helped us arrange everything we needed. She even took us on a grocery shopping trip to stock up when we arrived. This place is the definition of a hidden gem--truly the best location in Grand Case.

Perfect Family Vacation Stay!
Our family was extremely fortunate to be able to book Veronique's amazing villa on the hillside of Grand Case this past week. We had a memorable and wonderful time together with a location that allowed each of us to enjoy our favorite activities. The location of the villa gives an outstanding combination of privacy and prime location near all our favorite downtown restaurants and the beach. For the most mature of our family, the views win the prize. They are amazing and even more spectacular than shown in online photos. The deck off the living room was our living area for most mornings and many sunsets. Spectacular 180 views of mountain, water, sun and sky welcomed us each day. The beach and town are just down the hill and walking everywhere was the choice for most days. Some of us lounged on the beach, others stayed out for a late drink in the town. We all walked down together for dinner. For a family vacation with adult children nothing could be better. Veronique is a wonderful hostess, answering all our questions and keeping us up to date on virus related changes on the island which at the time of our booking was of central concern. We miss it already!

We had such a wonderful stay at this Villa! The property is beautiful with an amazing view of the sunset over Grand-Case Bay. The villa has lots of natural light and outdoor spaces, a swimming pool, a fully equipped kitchen, internet access, and private parking. It's ideally located where we walked to dinner and back home every night from the many first class dining options in town. There are also many beaches within a short travel distance.
