    Welcome to "The Drake Residences" Nirvana Townhome A4 located in Beacon Hill, Sint Maarten, uniquely positioned between the airport runway and the beach.



    This thoughtfully designed 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Townhome offers a relaxed yet refined setting, enhanced by a serene coastal design featuring pastel mint walls, natural wood accents, and marble tile floors, creating a calm and elevated island atmosphere.
