Property Description
The Caribbean unveils its newest, most exclusive village. One that blends luxury with
local character, contemporary design and an environmental ethos. The crown jewel
of St. Maarten: Porto Maho.
Ten waterfront homes – The Villas at Porto Maho – will anchor this elegant
community in the Netherlands Antilles.
A dual-island nation, St. Martin/St. Maarten embodies all the poise and style that its
French and Dutch cultures imply. One of the Caribbean’s original jet-set destinations,
where celebrity meets society in a cosmopolitan swirl; its nightlife buzzes, its beaches
rival its counterparts and its restaurants spill over into a culinary cornucopia.
More fabulous still is the way of life here. It’s textbook island paradise, with all the
perks. With international banks, duty-free shops, high-kicking nightlife, yachting and
boating galore, countless beaches, and gourmet produce flown in from France daily,
the island is an altar to carefree tropical leisure.

Designed by the Turin, Italy-based firm Associated Architects, each multimillion
dollar residence overlooks the ocean at famed Simpson Bay Lagoon. The chic,
contemporary style showcases the region’s natural beauty with skylights and
floor-to-ceiling sheets of glass in many rooms. Lush palms frame panoramas
of the lagoon, the Caribbean Sea and distant Anguilla. The Villas at Porto Maho invite
St. Maarten’s legendary landscape into the privacy and serenity of your own home.
Airy and minimalist, the architecture knows when to be discrete, from see-through
stairs in the main hall to a second-story skywalk across a courtyard garden.
And with island verve, it also makes bold design statements, such as the silvery
pavilions shading the teak decks. The mix is as irresistible as the destination itself.

Associated Architects has married linear contemporary style and Caribbean
traditions here. Slabs of stone and sustainable woods anchor the design in the
developer’s signature style. Meanwhile, modern expanses of glass merge the
interior and exterior experiences. Invite the landscape into your living room.
And then take your living room into the landscape with lavish outdoor terraces.
The 1,500 square meter grounds flow into the grade of the hillside, merging
the villa’s silhouette with the natural skyline. This also allows each room to have
unobstructed views of the lagoon, the sea and Anguilla on the horizon.
The terraces ascend from a private pier to a hot tub and swimming pool, then an
outdoor salon area, past the home’s two stories and finally to a trellised parking
space for several cars.
Elevators connect the residence’s levels. Select the floor plan that suits you best—
it’s all customizable: elements could include a gym, media room and four to six
bedrooms, each with its own closet, bathroom and shaded deck.

Unique among Caribbean communities, the Villas at Porto Maho blend the life aquatic
with bespoke design. Architects tailor your pier and dock house to suit your style:
from another bedroom to a loft-style lounge or yacht-captains’ quarters. Adventurous
owners can request customized storage space for kayaks, windsurfers, submarines,
catamarans, jet skis, scuba and other sea-going gear. And they can keep vessels –
from dinghies to yachts – sparkling with optional boat lifts.
Service here remains paramount and each of these stunning homes also caters to your
comfort and ease. Security, maintenance, gardening and pool services are included, while
other services such as catering and housekeeping area available on request.
Porto Maho signifies a new concept in living; the seamless integration of lifestyle
and domicile with everything one needs to live comfortably and effortlessly. No
mere backdrop, the living village is destined to be a vibrant hub, complete with a
piazza, banks, cafes, restaurants, designer boutiques, aquatic activities, seaside
promenade, organic and specialty markets and members-only amenities like an
athletic club, all anchored by what will be the destination’s largest mega yacht marina.
This landmark real estate project anchors the town, a “destination within a destination.”
The area is already home to the island’s largest casino, exhilarating nightclubs, the
region’s best duty-free shopping and an array of international restaurants.
