Your residence while on the Island of Sint Maarten/St. Martin will include the “awarding winning views” from the Palme d’Or Penthouse atop the Ocean Club’s five story tower. The vista is enchanting with a 310 degree radius thanks to separate Balconies on each end of the Penthouse. The full-on view of the Caribbean, Cupecoy Beach, the comings and going of the finest cruise ships in the world, the best Island sunsets and four Islands within the near distance are just the start of your relaxing vacation.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Elements of privacy or togetherness
The Master Bedroom Suite has its own balcony, chaise lounges, side table and a table with four chairs. In addition to the Caribbean and nearby Islands, this Balcony also looks down on the Resort’s pool, floral hedges, Banana Trees and Coconut Palms (hence the name of the Penthouse.) Of course, the Suite has its own Bathroom with a large shower and a rainforest showerhead. From the king bed you can watch TV or a DVD.
The Bath by the Queen Bedroom can be ‘locked out’ to provide privacy for your guests in the room. There is also access from the main hall. Televisions are provided in all three Bedrooms, along with an HD flat panel television in the Living Room.
The third Bedroom is configured as a pair of twin beds; however, there is a locking brace to create another king bed.
A half Bath is adjacent to the Sunroom. The Sunroom is between the two Balconies and again offers the full Caribbean view, along with a reading area and the main dining table should there be the occasional rain during dinner. A computer stand and printer are placed in a corner of the Dining Room, and free Wireless Internet service is provided. Sliding doors allow for a breeze whenever desired.
This Condominium Penthouse is greater than 1,700 square feet and along with the amenities already mentioned, it has washer/dryer access, a Kitchen complete with china, flatware, glassware and standard appliances. The Living Room has two Settees and a queen size Sofa Bed, a side table and lamp along with a Coffee Table that matches one of the Settees. A Game Table/Breakfast Table is also in this large area.
The art throughout the Penthouse is excellent as are the rugs in the Sunroom and Living Room.
The Balcony off the Living Room also offers two chaise lounges, side table and a table with four chairs. A kettle grill is situated here as well. This is where you share “Sundowner” cocktails as you watch the Sun set over Cupecoy. Although smoking is not permitted in any part of the Tower, these two Balconies do address that need.
Enclosed parking is on the ground floor with an elevator to the Penthouse.
The staff at the Ocean Club reflects the small, intimate quality of the Club. Cheryl and Noreen at the Front Desk are always accommodating with a smile, and our personal housekeeper, Mildred, will see to your every housekeeping need.
Should you choose to rent a car while on the Island, which I highly recommend, Cheryl’s husband, Mitch, of Bison Motors has his car rental based at the Ocean Club.
The photos tell the story, and our annual retreat to the Island since 1986 says a lot as well.
