Real villa rental prices in St. Martin, from our own rate sheets: what a week actually costs by villa size and season, what's included, and where the value sits. Every number below comes from the current rates of the 83 villas we manage.
This guide is brought to you by the Coral Villas team. As local experts in Sint Maarten, we're passionate about helping travelers discover the authentic Caribbean experience.
A week in a St. Martin villa currently runs anywhere from $1,100 for a one-bedroom beach cottage in low season to $140,000 for a ten-bedroom beachfront estate over the holidays. That range is so wide it's almost useless, so let's break it down properly. Every figure in this guide comes straight from the current rate sheets of the 83 villas we manage across Sint Maarten and Saint-Martin. No estimates, no "starting from" tricks.
Villa rental prices by size and season
Two things drive the price of a villa here: how many bedrooms it has, and when you travel. The table below shows the actual spread across our full portfolio. "Low season" is roughly June through November; "peak season" is December through April, with the highest rates around Christmas and New Year's.
| Villa size | Low season from | Low season median | Peak season median | Peak top end |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-2 bedrooms | $1,100 / week | $2,310 / week | $4,000 / week | $8,000 / week |
| 3 bedrooms | $2,590 / week | $4,200 / week | $9,900 / week | $20,000 / week |
| 4 bedrooms | $3,120 / week | $5,409 / week | $15,000 / week | $30,000 / week |
| 5 bedrooms | $5,500 / week | $8,000 / week | $30,000 / week | $85,000 / week |
| 6+ bedrooms | $4,800 / week | $14,088 / week | $36,750 / week | $140,000 / week |
A few things jump out of that data. The gap between low and peak season is roughly 2.5x to 3x for the same house. And the jump from four bedrooms to five is where prices accelerate: five-bedroom villas here tend to be genuine estates with staff quarters, gyms, and prime beachfront or gated-community addresses, not just houses with an extra room.
What those tiers look like in practice
Entry level: $1,100 to $4,000 per week
This buys a one- or two-bedroom cottage, often steps from the sand on the French side. Villa Tintamarrestarts at $1,100 a week in low season. These are simple, well-kept places for couples who plan to spend their days at Pinel Island and their evenings in Grand Case, not lounging in a home theater.
Mid range: $4,000 to $10,000 per week
The heart of our portfolio. Three- and four-bedroom villas with private pools and sea views, in neighborhoods like Beacon Hill, Pelican Key, and Orient Bay. Villa Arawak, a four-bedroom, starts at $3,360 in low season. For two couples splitting the cost, that's $240 per couple per night with a private pool. This is the tier where villas quietly undercut hotel suites.
Premium: $10,000 to $30,000 per week
Larger five- and six-bedroom properties in Terres Basses and on the Cupecoy cliffs, usually with full sea-facing infinity pools, media rooms, and daily housekeeping. Villa Almain Beacon Hill sits in this range at $8,400 to $30,000 depending on season.
Ultra luxury: $30,000+ per week
Full-staff estates. Villa Le Rêvein Terres Basses runs $45,000 to $135,000 a week; Le Château des Palmiers, our largest at ten bedrooms, tops out at $140,000 over the holidays. At this level the rate typically includes staff, and the booking conversation is less about price and more about dates, since these houses sell out for Christmas nearly a year ahead.
What's included in the price
With every Coral Villas booking, concierge service is includedat no extra charge: airport transfers arranged, restaurant reservations, provisioning before you land, private chefs and yacht charters booked on request (you pay the chef or the boat, not us). Housekeeping schedules vary by villa, from mid-week service at smaller properties to daily staff at the estates. Pool and garden maintenance is always included.
What's not in the weekly rate: taxes and service charges (quoted transparently in your proposal before you commit), a refundable security deposit, and extras like chef ingredients or car rental. There are no third-party booking fees because you book directly with us.
When to book for the best rates
The same villa can cost a third of its holiday rate in June. If your dates are flexible, the shoulder months are the smart play: May, early June, and November deliver peak-season weather at low-season prices, with sea temperatures still in the low 80s. Our month-by-month guide to visiting St. Martincovers the weather trade-offs in detail.
For Christmas and New Year's, book 9 to 12 months out. Most villas require a 14-night minimum over the holidays and rates are at their annual high. For February and March, 4 to 6 months ahead still gives you good selection. Low season can often be booked weeks in advance, and it's where you'll find the occasional genuine bargain on a house that would be triple the price in January.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a villa in St. Martin cost per night?
Villas here are priced by the week, but the math works out to roughly $160 per night for the smallest low-season cottages, around $770 per night for a mid-range four-bedroom in low season, and $2,000 to $20,000 per night for premium and estate properties in peak season. Split among a group, a four-bedroom at $5,409 a week costs eight guests about $97 per person per night.
Is it cheaper to rent a villa or stay in a hotel in St. Martin?
For groups of four or more, a villa usually wins on price per person, and it's not close once you factor in cooking some meals at home. For a solo traveler or one couple on a short stay, a hotel can be cheaper. We've broken down the full comparison in our villa vs hotel guide.
What is the cheapest time to rent a villa in St. Martin?
September and October, the core of hurricane season. Rates bottom out, and many villas offer their lowest published prices. The weather gamble is real but smaller than most people assume; storms that directly affect the island are rare, and travel insurance covers the risk.
Do St. Martin villas require a minimum stay?
Most of our villas have a 5- to 7-night minimum in regular season and a 14-night minimum over Christmas and New Year's. A handful of smaller properties accept shorter stays in low season. Ask us; the calendar often has more flexibility than the published rules suggest.
