Stunning View of Ocean & Lagoon from Pool, 3 Min Walk to Baie Rouge, Cottage

This delightful “jewel” is situated on a hillside overlooking the ocean and the Simpson Bay Lagoon with one of the best views on the island! The pool deck is a perfect place to enjoy this 180-degree view during the day or at night under the stars. It’s great for lounging by the pool, enjoying a glass of wine with friends, or a romantic dinner with that special someone.

During the day, the pool is an excellent way to cool off, swim some laps, or relax on a float reading a book. Just a short 3-minute walk from Bijou, is Baie Rouge, one of the most beautiful beaches in St. Martin, where you can go for a swim or snorkel in the warm, crystal clear, Caribbean blue water. Then you can lay out your towel on the sand, so you can enjoy the warm sun, ocean air, and sound of the water.

(Rates are based on a 2 person stay. There is an additional $20/person/night for more than 2 people.)

At the villa, the remodeled kitchen has all the amenities and is an enjoyable place to fix a meal if you want to take a break from eating out at one of the many wonderful restaurants in St. Martin. Barbecue fresh fish on the patio grill for a real treat!

During the day, you can open the shutters onto the pool deck for an open Caribbean living experience, filled with sunshine, tropical air, and views of the water and beautiful garden surrounding the villa. Together with the open floor plan, this creates an enchanting, spacious, and carefree ambience. There is often a cool breeze that comes up the hill from the ocean and lagoon, helping to cool the afternoons.

In the main house, there is a master bedroom with a king bed and en-suite bathroom; and a smaller bedroom with a queen size bed and bathroom across the hall that is perfect for one adult or two children. There is a separate studio cottage with a king size bed, bathroom, and small kitchen just a hundred feet from the main house. This is ideal for another couple, a single relative, or a teenager who wants some space! All bedrooms are air-conditioned.

The Baie Rouge area where Bijou is located is safe, with a gated entrance during nighttime hours. It is just a 15-minute drive from Princess Juliana Airport, and grocery stores are conveniently located just 5 minutes away by car. Marigot, the capital of the French side of St. Martin is a short 10-minute drive, and Grand Case, the “gourmet capital of the Caribbean” is a 20-minute drive.

Included in the rental is a bi-weekly house cleaning but arrangements can be made for cleaning services more often if desired. Our friendly, on island contact and housekeeper, Cindy, will be attentive to your needs. The owner is always happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. We want your stay at Bijou to be an enjoyable and memorable experience.

Bijou is waiting to welcome you to paradise in St Martin where you can unwind and totally relax. Here you will let go of the stresses of everyday life as you enjoy island life, recreation, and dining. When you return home you will feel sad to leave but fully rejuvenated because of your time at Bijou!

A Little Slice of Heaven
The view is outstanding. The house has everything you need for a comfortable relaxing stay. St Martin is a very beach location but the private pool was a plus. You are within a 5 min walk to Baie Rouge Beach. To us... it was one of the nicest beaches on the island. The welcome basket was another plus!!! After a long day of travel the last thing we wanted to do was to have to find a grocery store. It was above and beyond. The location was a perfect balance between the French and Dutch. We felt very safe. Ed was very attentive to anything we needed and all of our island questions. We would definitely return to Lyndy and Charlie's paradise.

Truly a Quiet Gem
The other reviews here are completely accurate - this is a wonderful clean, quiet and safe villa just the right distance from Marigot and all it has to offer. Baie Rouge is one of the best beaches on the island in our experience - the remote location and clear waters are worth it. (And...no jet skiiers!) The fact you can walk there from your villa is one of the best features here. The owner and property manager were a joy to work with - they're very responsive to any questions you have. All the conveniences and appliances are up to date and fully working. The beds are incredibly comfortable! We will definitely be back to SXM and Villa Bijou will be our first choice.

We're so happy we found and chose Bijou!
As so many previous guests wrote, this was the best and most thoughtfully supplied vacation rental we've ever stayed in. We did a lot of cooking and really appreciated the staples & spices already in the cabinets, as well as the welcome basket--the most lavish ever--the fresh pineapple lasted us the whole time! The views were amazing from every angle; we were quite content to just stay there & not leave that tranquil & serene environment. Soft cushy towels, comfortable beds, plenty of storage space. The cottage worked perfectly for the part of our stay when family joined us. The kitchen has plenty of space for 4 adults to prep . Our 3-year-old granddaughter spent hours in the pool improving her swimming skills and has already emphatically informed us she will be returning. Having Cindy the cleaner come twice while we were there to refresh everything was quite a treat. Property manager Ed responded promptly if we had any questions and when a sink pipe clog repair was needed he came by at night and devised a creative solution that got everything working again. How a maintenance team functions normally is one thing, how they respond to an unexpected, (and rare) problem is another, a true test, and we were very impressed. Pool and garden were attended to throughout our stay--very luxurious for us as we are DIY at home. As Americans the 110v power was a major convenience. We're already planning another stay at Bijou and next time for longer than 10 days! Thank you Lyndy!

Great Time at Bijou
This was our second visit to Bijou (first one since the hurricane) and everything was as nice as before. The owner and her onsite staff are very nice and respond quickly. It's in a great location for most of the better beaches on the island. Only minor issue is that the TV is not cable anymore; it's only streaming services so if you need to watch sports or news, you might be out of luck. Two fantastic restaurants to recommend; 1) Be Kool - fantastic French food and pretty reasonable, too. 2) Spices of India - you can't find better Indian cuisine in the US compared to this place. Surprisingly fantastic.

Villa Bijou was just what we needed. Very relaxing and comfortable. Location was perfect for us. I’m a Chef, kitchen was perfect and had everything I need to prepare meals. And a lovely set of sharp knives always makes me a happy camper. The only thing we missed a little was not having cable or satellite at the Villa so we could watch The Masters Tournament, no big deal, it got us away from TV and more pool time…

The house was beautiful. Had everything we needed and more. Especially loved the welcome basket, the extra left over sunscreen and bug spray from other guests and ALL the spices we had to cook with. This place was the best stocked house we have ever rented. Quiet area and view was beautiful. The beach was fantastic as well. We didn't want to leave.

Nice Villa, Nice Location
I agree with most everything stated in the other previous reviews. We traveled all over the island and were pleased with how this villa's location made us feel safe and how it is proximate to Marigot, the airport, Grand Case, several very nice beaches, a variety of restaurants, two mini but well stocked supermarkets, a gas station, and a COVID antigen testing popup site which will provide for only $40 exactly what Americans need to return to the USA. We enjoyed watching the iguanas in the garden, swimming laps in the long pool, dining and reading on the covered patio, and cooking with the nice outdoor gas grill and in the well-stocked kitchen. Cindy the housecleaner was lovely. We fixed Christome the gardener some lunch and enjoyed chatting with him - a nice, gentle man. And house manager Ed and his wife Kate were responsive, friendly, and very helpful with recommendations on beaches and restaurants. Lyndy's restaurant recommendations in her house guide were also super helpful. The nearby road can be loud at times, but it was only a now and then thing and we were generally able to tune it out. We would return.

Second visit of hopefully many
This was our second time staying at this beautiful property in St. Martin. It was wonderful to see the updates that had been done after the hurricane, which made the house even better than the last time. Having young children with us, it was so convenient to have the option of the pool or a short walk to the beautiful beach. Ed, the property manager, was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly helpful with suggestions for things to do around the island and made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. We visited right when the island closed down due to COVID19, and I can't believe how accommodating both Ed and Lyndy were. During what could've been a very scary and uncertain time for tourists, they checked in with us regularly and made sure we were well taken care of. We were still able to enjoy what was left of our trip thanks to their efforts. Parts of the island are still rebuilding after hurricane Irma's damage, but much of it is back to its original charm and character. There are plenty of beaches, restaurants, shops, and sites to satisfy any traveler. We look forward to staying at this wonderful villa again and again!

Gorgeous view!
Our family of 5 adults just made our first trip to St Martin. Bijou was a highlight of our trip! Killer view from the living/dining/pool terrace!!! Nice light steady breeze. Spacious house, our adult son and wife stayed in the cottage, nice privacy for all. Marvelously equipped kitchen made the times we cooked in very pleasant. Housekeeper and property manager both marvelous to work with!! An incredible island for excellent dining!!! The traffic on St Martin was our biggest disappointment with the island, so running up to Grand Case for the beach and dinner turns into to 1 hr plus drive each way, that’s even after working around the heaviest cruise ship days. Our advice would be to think carefully about where you want to locate on the island for that reason. Bijou worked well for us. It’s a quiet, lovely upscale neighborhood. We spent the last couple days at Baie Rouge beach just a few minutes walk and at the pool at the house. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to St Martin. But for now, on to Anguilla!!

Beautiful home and vacation
We had a lovely vacation stay at Bijou, it had everything we needed and the views were stunning all around. We loved watching the iguanas come near the pool area in the morning, and relaxing in the pool a lot of the time! One thing to note because I wasn’t expecting many mosquitos based on previous reviews. I believe they were out more than usual due to the recent rains, but even with using the sprays my daughter and I could not prevent getting bitten. Nothing the owners can do but just worth noting. The location was amazing as well! Overall we had a great experience.
