Cupecoy Villas, St Maarten

Cupecoy is the dramatic edge of the Dutch side, limestone cliffs, sandstone coves and sunset beaches, with the marina village of Porto Cupecoy and Maho's nightlife close at hand.

Cupecoy occupies the rugged south-western coast right where the Dutch side meets the French border. It is best known for Cupecoy Beach, a string of small sandy coves backed by carved limestone cliffs and famous as one of the island's great sunset spots, and for the modern luxury condominium developments, The Cliff, Rainbow, Sapphire, that line the bluff above it.

Mullet Bay Beach is only about a 5-minute drive, the airport roughly 9 minutes, and Simpson Bay Beach around 16 minutes. Next to Cupecoy is Maho with its restaurants, boutiques and casinos, while Porto Cupecoy itself is a Mediterranean-style marina village with a yacht harbour, waterfront dining and a weekly market. Cross the unmarked border a few minutes west and you reach the beaches and restaurants of the French Lowlands.

Cupecoy is ideal for travelers who want a sleek, contemporary villa or condo with big sea views and sunsets, walkable access to dining and a marina, and a quick hop to both the airport and the French side. Explore the Cupecoy properties Coral Villas offers below.
