Great room with a beautiful room! Complimentary breakfast bar was lovely. Massages were wonderful. Pool was a nice place to hang and the staff there was also great (shout out to Frank and Francesca!). Quick walk down the path to restaurant row and if you're too beat to walk back up you can arrange a shuttle in the evening, which we definitely took advantage of towards the end of our trip. Overall A+.

We loved our stay at Hotel L’Esplanade while visiting Saint Martin. It is perfectly located in Grand Case and the property is beautiful. Our room was spacious and equipped with a king bed, bathroom, full kitchen, dining table, and private balcony. The amenities at the hotel are wonderful—from complimentary daily breakfast, yoga classes, Ti Spa, a lovely pool, beach access through their sister property (Le Petit Hotel), and a nightly shuttle to restaurant row, L’Esplanade has got it all. The staff and service were extremely attentive, helpful, and provided the best hospitality. We are already looking forward to returning to Saint Martin and Hotel L’Esplanade!

Visually it’s one of the most beautiful hotel location I’ve travel. It’s located in a wonderfully in the French side of the island. I’m a little physically challenged but I wanted to check it out. Yes it was somewhat steep . I did ok. It was worth it but I don’t think I would recommend to someone who has knee or back problems. I was also challenged by the mosquitos in the room. Overall nice hotel.

We can’t say enough good things about L’Esplanade - we will continue to stay here every time we visit SXM. The property is simply stunning, with each room getting a front row seat to the best sunset in SXM. We especially love how convenient the walking path is to downtown for amazing restaurants (the best food in the Caribbean is in Grand Case) and easy access to the gorgeous beach. If you’re coming to SXM, stay here - you will not regret it!
