Child friendly villa with remote pool
Child friendly villa with remote pool
Hi -- We are planning a trip for this winter for 4 adults, and 2 year old twins, and would like to find a suitable villa. I have some suggestions from searching previous posts, but would like to hear about any villas that you liked, that allows children, is more or less child friendly, and has a pool (a nice one that you can actually swim in!) but also has another outside area (could be a good size deck, etc) that would allow us to be outside and not have to police the entrance to the pool (as we do at some of our friends houses this summer).
Also, the babies are small enough to sleep in a pack n play in our room, or with grandma, so inside entrances to bedrooms are not essential
Thanks for all your advice!

Chateau Margot has a great fence around the pool. We were there last year with our then 2 1/2 year old grandaughter and the fence was great. No worries. There is one Pack-N-Play at the house but if you need two I'm sure Kathy could round up another one. The master bedroom is huge with plenty of room for both Pack-N-Plays. You'll find Kathy great to work with too. Go to http://www.island-getaways.net/chateaumargot.html. There is room for 3 Jeeps at the house so parking is not a problem. We loved the location in the middle of the island. You're 10 minutes from Maho which is the beach that we loved to take the baby to. Frances is another great beach for little kids.
PM me if you have questions.

Two great houses I found in a recent never ending search for the perfect villa --- neither worked for us because our group outgrew them --- have a small twin bedded room in VERY close proximity to another "master" bedroom.

We stayed in Rendezview Villa overlooking Hart Bay...with 5 kids, youngest was 4 yrs old. Nice pool on lower deck (it was a bit windy/cool in the afternoon as the sun was only on the pool in the a.m.) We were there early February. It had an upper deck (outside of the main living level) that was quite spacious and had gated stairs leading down to the pool deck, which was also very spacious. 2 BR up, 2 BR down. worked great for our group. very child-friendly and close to Cruz Bay. Rented thru Island getaways. A very nice villa and affordable.
Good luck!

Check out Le Lapin II. I like the pool area there better than at Eaglesnest, we've done both. See TR at

'Andante by the Sea' meets your criteria.
There are 2 bedrooms that open up in the main part of the house so you can control the exit to the outside upper deck which in turn features a gate that blocks off the steps to the lower deck where the pool and hot-tub are.
We just stayed there in May with our 4-year old escape artist. She eventually realized that she was only going to be able to swim if we let her.

We stayed at Idyllic, www.vacationvisras.com several years ago with 2 yr old twins and a 3 year old also along. The pool is large and on a separate level from both levels of the house.Nice deck area outside the kitchen and living room.
