Villa Oyster Pearl - Luxury Beach Front Villa - Concierge - Hot Tub - Sleeps 19
Wouldn't you like to get away?
The wind is howling and the snow is piling up on the icy roads. Temperatures are below freezing point and icicles are forming on your nose.
There is another world just a few hours away. A world of sunshine and sandy beaches. Warm breezes and sparkling blue azure water. A beautiful Villa awaits your arrival on the Dutch side of St Maarten. A few kilometers away there are exquisite French restaurants. Not to worry, everyone speaks English.
Book NOW on our web site and check for your dates on the calendar - if you don't see them available, better book for next year!
At your service
As soon as you arrive at The Pearl we want to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We offer a full concierge service if you desire that extra level of comfort during your stay. Lewis, our villa manager is here to facilitate an extra special experience, booking boat trips, private driver service, booking tables at the best bars and restaurants, showing you the best beaches and waiting on you around the island.
You'll be met at the Villa by our dedicated house staff, Rosie and Eddie, who will help you check in - as easy as bringing your bags inside and grabbing a drink from the fridge! We also offer amazing experiences at the villa such as a private chef, massage, yoga, bar tender and musicians, all from our trusted partners. Please ask Lewis for rates and availability. Grocery shopping can also be taken care of for you by Eddie's comprehensive stocking service.
As you make your journey you will no doubt marvel at the breathtaking views of the island, but rest assured that these sites are nothing compared to the environment in which Villa Oyster Pearl finds itself. Resting just above the bay of Dawn Beach, it barely takes a minuet to walk down our garden steps before you reach the white sandy beach and turquoise waters of the Carribean Sea. Facing due east, a cool sea breeze flows constantly through the Villa which creates an air of relaxation and refreshment unlikely to be found anywhere else.
Plants, Peace, and Privacy
Villa Oyster Pearl has mature and beautiful tropical gardens, featuring emperor palms, banana trees, coconut palms, frangipani and fragrant Jasmin. Experience the tranquility of sun bathing in complete privacy around our luxury 12 person marble hot tub or on our sun trap side terrace. Dawn Beach is blessed with beautiful white soft sand, playful surf for boogie boarding and one of the most absorbing snorkling locations on the island, shared only by a select few Villas and one Hotel.
The facilities at Oyster Pearl include a fully equipped kitchen, barbecue, pool, Hot Tub, snorkel and beach equipment, free wireless internet, and Internet TV - if you can bear looking away from the incredible panoramic balcony view!

About the host
Hosted by David Fieldhouse
My name is Lewis, im from Yorkshire in the UK and i'm so pleased you've decided to check out my villa for your vacation! I promise, you won't find a villa on St Maartin with a more relaxing and rejuvenating atmosphere.
For over 30 years, Villa Oyster Pearl has been quietly sitting on the hillside above Dawn Beach. After hurricane Louis devastated the island, Villa Oyster Pearl stood solemn against the landscape, despite being almost derelict and mostly uninhabited.
Almost 10 years after that devastating hurricane, my father travelled to St. Maarten trying to find a place for the benefit himself and his family. He searched for a place that inspired a connection between building and inhabiter, a hidden and private place to relax in luxury. He purchased the Villa in 2003 and renovated it, added more bedrooms and buildings to the property, and started letting friends families stay at first, and then putting the property up to rent for all in 2014. We've welcomed hundreds of families like yours to the Villa, all of whom have fallen in love with it, just like my father did. In 2020 I took over the running of the Villa, as my father sought retirement, and in 2024 he sold up and left St Maarten.
The new owners graciously kept me on to manage the property, meaning you, our guests, get my 20 years experience of having lived in and worked at the villa, and on Sint Maarten for what is for many families, a trip of a life time. My goal it to make your vacation one you will never forget.

Why they chose this property
Villa Oyster Pearl is one of only a hand full of family managed homes on the island with full beach access, full concierge, a beautiful bespoke hot tub (NOT PLASTIC!), a host of dedicated and fully researched service's you can book for your vacation with 100% confidence.
Lewis, the Villa manager and concierge, can help you plan every moment of your stay, from start to finish, having you picked up at the Airport and effortlessly guided through a curated holiday that you've been dreaming of for you and your family to enjoy to the full. Book a boat trip to swim with turtles in the sea grass of Tintmarre Island! Go riding in the bush hills with Tim, our ATV guide and see the island from a view that few ever see! Book chairs at the best beach clubs on the island wether you like a club vibe or just to while away the hours listening to the waves.
Dawn Beach is one of the biggest assets at the villa. Its waves are big rollers to the north end of the beach, and none-existant in the south, giving you the best of both worlds. Protected by a reef to snorkel in and explore while the current drifts you effortlessly back to the beach stairs to the house. The water is warm year round!
Oyster Pond village is home to two of the best restaurants on the island, BZH and Oasis - both French with a Caribbean twist - with excellent service and incredible wine lists. There is also the best Pizza on the island available from Mama Pizza, just a 2 minute drive away, for those nights when you just want to laze around on the couch and catch a movie.
St Maarten of course is the other reason to come to the villa. An island which has a bit of everything for anyone. Adventure on the water or inland, 2 zip lines, mountain hikes, incredible beaches, the culinary capital of the Caribbean, high rolling at the casino, bars and clubs, relaxing spa's and romantic sunsets. This is an Island for every vacation.
