Perfection and peace
Lovely hosts, couldn’t do more for us. Location was incredible, about 10 steps from the harbour front. The room was perfect, had all we needed and was beautifully decorated. The pool was ideal, small but just what we needed. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

A real sanctuary in the middle of town
Stayed here for 2 nights and what a fabulous sanctuary, we know the town well from numerous day trip but wanted to stay overnight to see the beautiful lace go to sleep and wake up. The hotel is right in the middle of Saint Martin but so far away from the tourist throng. It is amazing, so chic and comfortable, the garden with pool is so quiet,the owner so friendly and if you stay you must have drinks in the tower, what views
Great location and wonderful host Jerome makes you very welcome with good attention to detail Free car parking though is not close and though safe Id have preferred to pay and know the car was close by.

- La prestation de service qui fait la différence entre un hôtel et chambre d’hôtes n’est pas à la hauteur. 3 nuits passées sans jamais que la chambre ne soit « refaite ».
- Une prestation complémentaire ( créneau dans l’espace sur le toit ) indigne des 2 fois 25€ pour un « apéritif », qlqs morceaux de saucissons bref si nous avions su, nous aurions complété en allant à la supérette.
- Spa de nage pas en route alors que dixit propriétaire « plus gros week end de l’année » !!!
Le reste est entre bien et très bien.
Voilà voilà un peu déçu
