Florida is the most visited place on earth with more than 88 milli
on visitors last year, and more than 30% of them are bound for the gulf coast.
The beaches of Pensacola and the north Florida coast are already destroyed and there is every chance that the oil will find its way to Tampa Bay and Clearwater, should that happen it will lead to a massive disruption in the regions travel and tourism market.
Millions will be affected: hotel inventories in the rest of Florida could not absorb the potential demand created by the displacement. Large numbers of visitors will spill (pun intended) over into the rest of the Caribbean, and of course St. Maarten will get its share.
Villa Bella Vita captures the essence of West Indian luxury
living like no other. The home is completely walled to create an ideally secure retreat environment, enter through a remote controlled gate, and be greeted by a lush tropical garden.

This good sized villa has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on 
the main floor. The villa comes fully furnished including many appliances. The real gem is the land; more than one acre in the sought after Guana Bay region.
The real estate industry in Sint Maarten has been a key driver
of the local economy for over two decades. Tendal Real Estate has been at the forefront of most of the island's major real estate initiatives.
In today's fast changing world, the myriad challenges facing the real estate industry grow more complex by the day; Lack of investor confidence in the residential - commercial market is exagerated by uncertainty over a prolonged economic downturn, and is a primary concern facing real estate investment today.
That being said, here in Sint Maarten we see signs of recovery, albeit a weak one.
Real estate values have been protected to a large extent, by a strong demand for vacation rentals, and a relatively resilient Timeshare sector.
The prognosis for the 2010 - 2011 tourist seaon, is Excellent! So Welcome to Sint Maarten.
