2 Bedroom Apartment for Sale, Idolem Residence, Orient Bay, St Martin

Available on request

The brief

The reason to consider it.

Located in Orient Bay on the French side of St Martin, this 2-bedroom apartment at Idolem Residence enjoys sea views from its tranquil setting within walking distance of the famous Orient Bay Beach, making it ideal as a pied-à-terre, a second home, or a rental investment.

Spanning 62.8 square metres, the apartment has a well-designed layout with a warm feel throughout. The living area opens directly onto a private terrace where the sea views really come into their own — a great spot for morning coffee or winding down after a day at the beach. A 4 square metre storage unit is also included.

Idolem Residence is a small co-ownership of just 10 units, with access to a communal swimming pool and fitness room. Monthly charges are estimated at €170.

Orient Bay is one of St Martin’s most popular and well-connected spots, and apartments with sea views at this price point are few and far between. Whether you’re looking for a personal retreat or a property that works hard as a rental, this one delivers on both fronts.
