This was mine and my husbands second time to St Martin but first time at L’Esplanade. The property is beautiful with gorgeous views of the ocean. We loved that it was walkable to the amazing restaurants in grand case. A shuttle is also offered if you do not wish to walk. We also loved that we could pick up our breakfast in the morning and enjoy it on our own on our balcony. Yoga classes were included and also excellent. Will definitely stay here again when we return!

There aren’t enough words to describe how perfect our stay at L’Esplanade was. Everything from the spacious room, to the friendly staff, to the most relaxing pool to the best sunset on the island….it was amazing. Highly highly recommend this property — we know we’ll be back for many years to come!

Hotel Gem in Grand Case

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The hotel had complimentary Wi-Fi, breakfast and yoga classes. The Wi-Fi worked great. The complimentary breakfast included coffee, tea, pastries, bread, yogurt, fruit & cereal with upgraded options (ex. quiche) available for purchase. I really enjoyed the outdoor yoga class I took...great mountain views and nature sounds. The hotel had a nice warm pool (chairs were always available) and pool bar (with yummy cocktails & my husband's fav fish sandwich of the trip!) We went to the sister hotel on the beach several times & enjoyed complimentary beach chairs, umbrellas & paddle boards. The location was great...walking distance to two beaches & "Restaurant Row." We hope to return for a longer stay in the future!

Excellent location away from mass crowds of tourists. You do have to walk to the beach. If you don’t want to walk, there is a free shuttle to take you into town. The owners are hands on and very accommodating. We will certainly return

We loved everything about our stay here. We were looking at Grand Case Beach Club for our stay, however, the hotel was at capacity for two out of the 5 nights. We booked the first two nights there and the last three nights at L’Esplanada. I honestly wish we would have booked all 5 nights at L’Esplanada. Our hotel suite was beautiful and just a short walk to the beach. Check in was simple. Any questions we had about restaurant recommendations were answered and reservations were handled by them. Don’t hesitate to book here, you won’t regret it.

We loved our stay here. The beautiful mire from our balcony. The relaxing pool and pool bar made for a relaxing afternoon. The hotel shuttle will drone you to the dining area and bring you back after dinner. We will definitely return next time we are on the island.

We stayed a week at this lovely hotel. Great location from restaurant row and the beach that you can easily walk to. The room was beautiful, spacious and clean. Cute balcony with an amazing view to enjoy coffee or breakfast on (watch out for iguanas! Ha). King bed was very firm (not my preference but it’s okay). There was an accident with the shower and something broke and it was fixed in less than 20 mins by a nice barefoot man that might have owned the place (thank you!) front desk staff was also very kind and attentive. Breakfast was simple and very good, I did feel like a cow eating croissants every morning but hey, vaca calories don’t count. Overall this was a great deal for what we paid. The fact that a king bed with a balcony and a view wasn’t like a crazy premium but just seemed like a standard there was the overall selling point. I would definitely recommend this place to someone staying on the island.

Perfect for a Relaxing Caribbean Trip

This is the perfect hotel for any couple looking for a romantic and relaxing trip to the Caribbean. We stayed in the Deluxe Loft and it was enormous - including a kitchen, half bath on the first floor, and a sizable terrace with an incredible view of Grand Case Bay. The pool includes a swim-up bar where you can order drinks, food or just chat up the bartender (both Frank and Francesca are amazing). Our trip was during low season so we often had the entire pool area to ourselves. The grounds are immaculate, and while we were there (early July) everything was in bloom. Also the hotel dog, Jack, was an unexpected perk - he's the friendliest dog ever and would walk us too and from the beach during the day, and the restaurants at night (although he wouldn't go past his favorite lolo, Talk of the Town). The hotel is perfectly located for anyone who doesn't *need* to be beachfront. It's a bit uphill from the beach, which adds to the view and makes it is more secluded. To the right, a 5 minute walk to Grand Case Beach Club (which has an amazing waterfront French bistro) and Petite Plage. To the left, a 5 minute walk to Restaurant Row, which includes some amazing (and not terribly expensive) French and local restaurants. I would be willing to bet this is the best concentration of restaurants in the Caribbean. We will definitely be coming back.

Excellent view, location, and travel with toddler

This was one of the best managed hotels where I have ever stayed. We visited Grand Case for two nights as part of a longer trip where we spent a few nights on the Dutch side in Simpson Bay and a few nights in Anguilla. I cannot say enough good things about this hotels and this was our favorite leg of the trip. From the moment we arrived with our toddler daughter, we felt like we were in paradise. We booked late so were in a studio room, but it was immaculately clean and had a balcony with a view. We had a small kitchen in the room, which was great for traveling with a toddler. The attention to detail was impressive with an outlet converter provided and citronella candles in case of mosquitos on the balcony (maybe saw one). The breakfast was lovely with your choice of croissants. You took it back to the room, but the hotel thought of everything from a coffee carafe and tray for easy transport. The staff was so friendly and genuinely kind to our toddler. The hotel was walkable to grand case (a bit of a hill) but they had a shuttle at dinner time and the hotel has an agreement with the Grand Case Beach Club where you can use their beach. We rented a stand up paddle board there one morning. The pool at the hotel was lovely and heated. The staff even helped me staple my flip flop when it broke! They also helped arrange our car rental pickup and drop off on-site. My only regret is we didn’t stay longer!
