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.

Graduation trip for our son
My husband and I took our son and three friends to celebrate his high school graduation. This house has THE best views! Daphne was easy to communicate with and very quick responding. Pierre lives just up the street and he was so helpful with things to do and where to go. The AC in one bedroom didn’t work the day we got there and by the next day it was replaced. Catherine is the sweetest and we paid Omar (pool and lawn guy) to drive our group downtown one evening. We had a nice steak dinner and hit the casino and Moon Bar. He stayed out late and brought us back safely. You definitely need to rent a car as most reviews say, the hills are no joke! We waited until we got there to unload luggage and then we headed to a grocery store. We never cooked meals, but the kitchen has everything you will need if you choose to. If you’re planning to go to a beach for the day I recommend Orient Beach. Daphne told us about it and she was right. It has all the activities, restaurants, shops, etc and it’s not a far drive. There are outdoor showers there as well. Ladies or men with long hair, I wouldn’t worry about dolling up too much because of the wind and humidity. Bring lightweight clothes! You will not need your fancy outfits except for maybe one evening out on the town. All bedrooms have AC but the main living area does not. We kept the windows/doors open so it’s a constant warm breeze. The pool and hottub are wonderful, especially at night. We will be back!

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!

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!

Fantastic Villa
The view is amazing, so beautiful, 180 degrees of beauty St Barts and Dawn beach area. Dawn beach is beautiful and easy to get to. Quick walk down and over the stairs. The roads are no joke and very steep and narrow. But you will run into that for any house with a view like this. We would've preferred a rental car with ground clearance. There are restaurants nearby but definitely driving distance except the bar/resaurant at the beach. The owner had blow dryers, books, games, floaties for the pool, great internet, a well stocked kitchen, and beach towels. The housekeeper refreshed the beach towels twice during the stay, such a luxury. All things that make a great beach house. We really appreciated the services of the housekeeper and pool professional, and Pierre the house manager. They check to make sure you know how to work everything and keep it in good order. Daphne the owner stopped by to check in on us too. So nice! The pool is really great we used it to cool off. We were there New Year's and it was 75 degrees. People that enjoy firm beds will be very happy. I would go again tomorrow if I could, it's so great.

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.

Girls vacation!!
The property is beautiful, views are stunning. Local restaurants are ample and wonderful. Bedrooms are cool and comfortable. The villa is stocked with many amenities. We did not take advantage of the staff for cooking or recommendations, but I feel they would have been helpful with both. The pool is deep and refreshing, however in December it is only half in the sun, perhaps other months are different. We rented a car, which has nothing to do with the house, but must mention-the roads are narrow and steep, factor this into your vechicle selection. Do not drive up or down the steep hills if they are wet. We loved our trip, as well as our stay, and hope to be back!!!

Absolutely Perfect!
Valhalla is absolutely stunning! The views are incredible! We couldn’t ask for a more perfect experience from start to finish. Daphne was wonderful to work with and answered all our questions throughout the reservation process. Catherine is such a lovely person. She was always concerned that we had everything we needed. We had some great conversation with her. She is a gem! The home was exceptionally clean and well maintained. We cooked several evenings and the kitchen was well stocked with any utensils/dishware/cooking items necessary. There was even a very nice array of seasonings and spices available. We enjoyed the walking proximity to Dawn Beach ( about a 5-8 minute walk). You are on a hillside so the walk back gives a nice little workout! It’s a great location and easy to get to both sides of the Island. The pool, hot tub and beautiful deck made it difficult to want to leave the property! This was a great vacation for our family and we would highly recommend Valhalla to anyone looking for a private, comfortable, vacation getaway.

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.

Great 9 days
Overall a good family friendly villa. Daphne did a great job communiting up front. Catherine and Pierre were very hospitable. Catherine arrived just as we did to give us a tour. All the food we preordered was stocked in the fridge and pantry. Caution - the grocery that delivers is very expensive. We found a store a few miles away that was a fraction of the price. If you are on a budget or just want to save a few bucks, go shopping when you get to the island. It will save you quite a bit of money. The views were spectacular from the back patio. The walk to the beach was a bit longer than expected but not too much of an issue. Overall no complaints with the property, the owner or the staff. One suggestion - talk with Catherine about the pool guys schedule. He would just appear in the morning and startle us a bit. Nice guy! But just didnt know when he was coming. We appreciate Daphne opening her home to us. I highly recommend this property. Its clean, well maintained, grear views and good location!

Paradise!
It's hard to know where to begin - we are female friends who travel each summer (without spouses) to different destinations (this is our year 13). This villa was amazing! It offered private sleeping spaces for the 4 of us - with the most amazing pool, deck, kitchen, courtyard, views...I could go on. First of all, we booked almost a year in advance and all my questions were answered immediately. Just before our arrival we had the best directions and contacts to get us to the villa. Catherine met us on our arrival. She was wonderful and helpful in orienting us to the area. Pros: The villa is beautiful, beautiful views, well equipped, clean, located fairly close to both sides of the island, private....I just can't say enough! People on the island are lovely. Catherine is a wealth of knowledge. We were early risers and out before Pierre came in - sorry we couln't meet him, but we enjoyed Catherine's stories of the island. We wished we had spent more time at the villa when they were there. We walked to Dawn Beach (resort) a few nights for drinks and dinner. The bar people are great! So accomodating - food is good and you don't need to drive. Cons: The only villa con is it is a little weird to lock yourself into a bedroom each night. Totally worth the set up of the villa, however! Driving got old for me (but I'm 66). It's very hilly and a lot of traffic.

This home is amazing… beautiful view of Dawn Beach and Oyster Cove. It fit our family of 5 perfectly, plenty of room for everyone. The beds are a little firm but that didn’t bother us, we slept very well. We swam in the pool everyday, and in the evenings we enjoyed the hot tub while listening to the sound of the waves. Pierre and Catherine are lovely people, we enjoyed talking to them during our stay. Pierre made several recommendations, all were outstanding. We weren’t quite ready to leave; we easily could have stayed another week. There is so much to do on the island. Overall, we were very happy with this home, and will definitely be back soon.

Outstanding home to rent! Beautiful views from every room, spacious kitchen to cook in, beach access
My husband and family of three boys ranging from 13-20 years old throughly enjoyed our week long stay at this amazing home! The house is incredible, open concept living/kitchen area to prepare meals and have all together with patios slider doors all around to take in 360 views! In the morning enjoyed opening master doors and sipping morning coffee looking out at pool/ocean view, relaxing pool side on patio, laying out, hot tubbing, & short 6 min walk to beach! Enjoyed playing family games at long dinning table. Was pleasantly supposed that the kitchen had been beautifully updated from darker wood cabinets in photos. We had done a few excursions and was able to schedule pick up from The Westin. We did rent a car to be able to get around the area. Love both sides Dutch & French. Definitely recommend atv 4 Wheeler tour to see island and where you might like to go through your stay. Snorkeling on catamaran was wonderful as well. Took walks on beach, enjoyed tropical cocktail from The Westin Beach Bar. 5 min drive to French Bakery, & breakfast at Infinity Restaurant across the way. Had couple dinners out in Simpson Bay and Grand Case. Catherine was amazing, gave us the run down of island, where to get groceries, great delivery pizza recommendation, made sure had what needed. Only one small thing was all the number of keys required to open and unlock doors. Little inconvenience, but easy to upgrade . One of the most positive things was staffs attention to cleanliness, including routine cleanings of house, and testing & cleaning of hot tub, and pool. Very impressive for a house rental. Would stay here again! On last day we finally got to see the monkeys! Bout 6 Pm along the walls once inside Dawn Beach

Open air and great views, wonderful space
We loved this beautiful house with so much of it open to the outdoors and lounging outside for breakfast and enjoying the pool and hot tub. Magnificent views, gated neighborhood of large houses. Very safe and private. We were there the week before Christmas, and the weather was lovely (around 77 low 82 high) each day, it was a little cool for the pool with the ocean breeze and afternoon shade, but we still used it every day. It is a little drive to most things you want to visit on the island (steep roads over the mountains and one privately owned, unpaved road to Oyster Bay that is very bumpy!). Pierre the house manager was great - quickly fixed any little things that came up and very friendly. Catherine met us when we arrived, and usually would clean the house in the morning around 9:30, so you may want to coordinate with her about which days you expect to be out of the house by that time or if you only want her to come once vs. twice during a week stay. Communication was great with her as well, really we had just a wonderful time! Our favorite outings were Ilet Pinel (no vendors trying to sell you things on the beach) and the all-day catamaran with snorkeling (booked through Viator). We loved lunch at the little place attached to the Columbus Hotel (La P'tite Pause) on Oyster Pond, and a more upscale dinner at Ocean 82 in Grand Case, Mama Pizza was also a more casual open air option we enjoyed nearby. Bring lots of cash! U.S. dollars accepted everywhere, credit cards only for some things (you have to look for ATMs, mostly at banks), and you can pay the same in cash dollars as the listed price in Euros. Most mornings we had baguettes and cheese/meats from Bread and Butter or Super U. There is also a market on Bishop Hill Rd. we would use for basics. We walked to Dawn Beach a few times but did not spend beach time there (went to Mullet Bay, Pinel Island, and Orient Beach), and had fun at Parrote Ville (if you like birds--in the mornings they are especially eager for the food you have). Definitely recommend staying here!

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.
