Set on the island's French side, this low-rise resort features direct access to sunning, swimming, and watersports along beautiful Orient Beach. A pool surrounded by cushioned lounge chairs, an open-air restaurant, and complimentary use of beach chairs ensures relaxation.
What I wish I
could change:
While eating in St. Martin can be expensive the food in most restaurants is very good. Stop at one of the large grocery stores on the way to the hotel and buy beverages and snacks to save money.
Why YOU should
go:
The resort attracts couples and families seeking easy access to Orient Beach's European ambience of lounge chairs and colored umbrellas arranged in geometric patterns, as well as to watersports and to an adjoining open-air shopping/dining center. The resort's rooftop sundeck goes largely unnoticed during the day. But it's a great destination after dark, you can take drinks from the bar, climb the steps, lie back in lounge chairs, and gaze at stars.
In the heart of St. Martin, this intimate hotel, the Alamanda Resort, has a wonderful ocean-front setting just a few steps from the soft white sands and azure waters of Orient Bay. This idyllic St. Martin resort is a perfect choice for couples and families with all the facilities you could need, including well equipped kitchenettes in each room to provide a convenient alternative to dining out.
