Where Is Betty’s Estate, St Maarten?
Betty’s Estate sits in the lush hillside of Sint Maarten, on the Dutch side of the island. The neighborhood is a quiet residential area, with its newest development positioned at the end of a cul-de-sac — a setting that gives residents a fresh breeze over the island’s green hills rather than the noise of a main thoroughfare. It’s this hillside position, away from the busier commercial strips, that defines Betty’s Estate as a residential rather than commercial pocket of Sint Maarten, part of the wider Sint Maarten real estate market.
What’s Nearby: Amenities Within Minutes
One of the defining advantages of Betty’s Estate is how much is reachable within minutes of home:
- Schools
- Supermarkets
- A bakery
- Sports facilities
- Hospital
- Philipsburg
For anyone weighing a hillside, residential setting against day-to-day convenience, Betty’s Estate is positioned so residents don’t have to choose — the quiet is local, but essential services and the island’s capital, Philipsburg, are both close by.
Real Estate in Betty’s Estate: Country Gardens
The flagship real estate development in Betty’s Estate is Country Gardens, a small, quaint condominium community designed for middle-income professionals. The concept is straightforward: modern, well-appointed condos in a hillside setting, sized and priced for buyers who want practicality and efficiency without sacrificing comfort.
At full build-out, the Country Gardens concept plan includes:
- Twelve 2-Bedroom / 1.5-Bathroom condos
- Six 1-Bedroom / 1-Bathroom condos
- Smart home technology in every unit
The community itself is planned around a common BBQ and play area, set within lush landscaping — shared spaces designed for residents rather than purely private units stacked side by side.
Condo Layouts and Floor Plans
Country Gardens offers two core layouts, both designed with affordability in mind while keeping practicality and efficiency intact:
| Layout | Footprint | Bathrooms | Notes |

| 2-Bedroom | 92 m² | 1.5 bathrooms | All units include a balcony and/or outdoor space |
A standout detail for top-floor buyers: the two 1-bedroom units and four of the 2-bedroom units on the top floor have exclusive access to their own consecutive rooftops. Each of these rooftop spaces comes with its own restroom and the provisions for an outdoor kitchen — built for outdoor activities, gardening, and entertaining, not just a shared roof deck.
