Nice location
Just minutes away from Orient Beach, this is the perfect location for a beach vacation. Beware at night though, as there are few places to get a dinner at a reasonable price. The beach restaurants close before 5 pm.
This hotel was a little outdated, but kept very clean. It was in a great location right by the beach and within walking distance to a little market area that had some nice restaurants with plenty of outdoor seating. The hotel staff was absolutely wonderful and were more than willing to assist us in any way possible from giving us directions to calling a cab for us, whatever we needed. We are already planning our next trip and will definitely stay here again.

Cozy suite resort within walking distance to beautiful Orient Beach. Lounge chairs and umbrellas are free to guests, and beach towels are provided. There is a beach bar and restaurant right at the beach. The village is a 5 minute walk with restaurants and a market, where you can get fresh croissants, baguettes, wine, cheese, etc.
What We'd Change
Le Grand Bleu isn't for everyone. There is no room service - it's not a luxury resort. But if you want to be right on Orient Beach you couldn't pick a better location.
Why You Should Go
The are a few restaurants in the village and don't miss Le Piment Pizzeria! The pizzas and salads were exceptional, the prices reasonable, and the waitress very friendly! If you are the adventerous type rent a car and explore the island and don't miss Grand Case, the food is wonderful there is also some great restaurants in Marigot as well.
Take the ferry to Anguilla for the day...well worth the trip.
