Cupecoy, St. Maarten

Cupecoy sits at the western tip of the Dutch side, right at the French border, where sandstone cliffs and sea caves drop down to a small beach. Most homes are condos in gated residences and in the Porto Cupecoy marina village, with Mullet Bay Beach and the island's only golf course next door. Maho's restaurants, casino and nightlife are a few minutes away, and so is the airport.

For sale with Andreu Realty on 7 October 2026: 23 properties. 18 condos and penthouses from $380,076 to $1,399,000 (median about $770,000), nine of them in the Porto Cupecoy marina village and the others at Cupecoy Beach Club, Sapphire Beach Club, Fourteen at Mullet Bay and the new Ocean Blue Residence; the La Maddalena townhouses from $625,000; three villas at $1,650,000, $1,950,000 and $3,750,000; and boat slips at Porto Cupecoy Marina from $180,000.

What owners pay: monthly association fees on these listings run from about $357 to $1,415, depending on the building and the size. Ask for the latest accounts and the reserve fund before you make an offer. Cupecoy is on the Dutch side, so a civil-law notary handles the sale and buyer closing costs come to about 5.5% of the price, including the 4% transfer tax.

Cupecoy suits buyers who want a secure condo they can lock and leave, beach and marina within walking distance, and the airport close by. Several listings come with a boat slip.

Buying a condo in Cupecoy: what to check. Start with the building, because each one runs on its own rules and its own budget. The Porto Cupecoy residences around the marina were built between 2000 and 2010; Cupecoy Beach Club, Sapphire Beach Club and The Cliff face the sea along the Cupecoy shore; Fourteen at Mullet Bay was completed in 2023; and Ocean Blue Residence is due in 2027. Compare fees on the same basis: some associations bill monthly, others quarterly (Cupecoy Beach Club at $2,700 a quarter, for example). On our 16 for-sale condos with a published fee, the monthly equivalent runs from $357 to $1,415, median about $720 (9 October 2026). Ask the association for its budget, the reserve fund, the last two years of meeting minutes and any planned special assessment, and ask what the fee covers, for example building insurance, security and pools. Read the house rules on short-term rentals before you count on rental income. For a new build such as Ocean Blue, where the fee is still to be set, ask for the developer's estimated budget, the payment schedule and the completion date in writing. Most condos here are sold furnished (15 of our 18 for-sale condos and penthouses): attach the inventory list to the purchase agreement. And get an insurance quote, including windstorm cover, before you sign.
