|
|
Seemingly endless velvety white sands, 144 miles Northeast of Puerto Rico were discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493. |
|
|
The Explorers anchored on this "land of salt", and christened it Saint Martin in honour of the saint whose feast day it was. |
|
|
|
|
Located
in the heart of the Caribbean between the Lesser Antilles, the island
is a total of thirty eight square miles and comprises of more than 40
nationalities. |
|
One
sees the mingling of rich colonial influences of the Dutch and the
French, who share the island today, known as St.Maarten to the Dutch
and St.Martin to the French. |
|
|
Sophisticated
duty free shopping in the deluxe boutiques with thier jewelry, perfumes
and designer clothes, cozy sidewalk cafes and gourmet fine dinning make
it a little Europe. |
|
|
|
|
Rich
in Caribbean charisma and natural beauty, the palm fringed beaches
number around thirty. The Orient Bay, with its clothing optional beach
is nicknamed the "St. Tropez of the Caribbean". In contrast are the
more isolated, quieter beaches. As if to cradle the lanquid tropical
world. The inland gardens give an impression of extreme peace, the
delicate bouganvillea flowers waving their harmonious settings. |

Traditionally
Caribbean music is still alive and strong in this island paradise. The
calypso player who sings accompanied only by the guitar is featured at
family gatherings and in restaurants. they are one of the artistic
elements that make up the heritage of St.Martin. |
|
|
St.Martin
with its Carribbean hospatality and French "savoir vivre", is truly a
vacationer's paradise. A perfect get-away, where time has little
meaning and the atmosphere is relaxed and easy going. |
|
And
for the romantics, our villas are perfectly situated to catch the
rising sun as it appears in from the Caribbean Sea. Overall, it is an
island where memories are made forever. |
