We were greeted by Greg in front of the condo. He was very gracious.

The condo was beautiful and has everything you need for your stay. It was quiet when we were there. The condo unit is on the end and the pool is right outside your door which made it easy to carry drinks down.

The beach is beautiful... though there was a lot of seaweed washing up.

When we arrived on Sept 1, 2017 we were aware that hurricane Irma was out to sea. We had 4 great days before things changed. Greg told us he would keep us informed on her location but expected her to go north of St. Maarten . We also tracked her on our laptop. Early Monday morning we realized she was heading straight for Orient Bay and we desperately tried to get a flight off the island with no luck. Greg brought us supplies (batteries, flashlights, candles and a weather radio) to ride out the storm in the condo. Shortly after bringing us supplies Greg decided to evacuate us from Orient Bay to the west side of the island. We are so grateful that Greg did evacuate us since Orient Bay took a direct hit from a category 5 hurricane. The condo did have minor damage compared to other condo's and beach bars in Orient Bay so it should be ready for renting soon. Though a lot of businesses and beach bars were completely wiped away. I hope that St. Maarten can rebuild quickly and get back to being the beautiful island it once was.

Gilles and Greg were great to deal with before during and after our trip.

I want to thank Greg for getting us to a safe place before Irma hit Wednesday morning.
