I have no words to truly describe our stay here... but it was incredibly memorable! After reading the reviews I knew we picked the right hotel for our getaway which was much needed after my four grueling months of chemotherapy. My husband had business on the island and we decided to escape to the French side where there were less tourism and traffic. Upon arriving the hotel we drove around to get a feel for the small, cozy, tight community area. Excellent restaurants, adorable boutiques, beach bars, music and more. L'Esplanade Hotel welcomed us with a grand entrance smile. Fell in love immediately with the grounds which was beautifully kept. The outdoor entrance for checking in was so inviting with colorful tiles and grand view of the Grand Case Bay ocean waters. Mediterranean decor throughout the property with unique pieces to accent it all. Janice, receptionist, had a 1000 kilowatt smile and warmly welcomed us. To our surprise they had a gift for us in our room (celebrating our anniversary and completing my cancer trea**ent) priceless and very meaningful. I loved our room, it was sensational- it felt like home with exceptional teakwood furniture, beautiful decor, lucious bed, gorgeous scenery, spacious long balcony, and A/C always keeping the room prefect while humidity tried to seek in. All I can say is WOW it was a slice of Saint Martin heaven. I loved starting the day with a tasty breakfast (breads, fruits, yogurts, cereals, juices) overlooking the lovely view along with the iguanas and birds. I booked a spa appoin**ent with the talented Simone, oh that deep tissue was magnificent and hypnotic. It was therapeutic and after a long trip from San Diego it was perfect. The hotel was quiet since its 'quiet season', we walked the grounds and then visited the pool area and bar. Frank and/or Francesca attended our thirsty needs with a contagious Carib smiles. Great music, friendly, fun conversations we instantly felt like we've known them for a long time. We laughed and rested while admiring this resort's surroundings. Everyone was family, others showed up and it felt like the TV show "Cheers' where everyone knew each other - especially Marc. ;) Another benefit of staying here is you have access to their sister hotel Le Petite which is located right on the beach! Janice will contact the hotel and let them know we are on our way. We took advantage of spending the day at the beach and welcome by Remy who runs the hotel. Two chairs, towels, and umbrella was ready for us. Again 5 star service all the way! I can't say enough about my vacation and this resort but hopefully my photos will share our enthusiasm and love for this place. I look forward to coming back and seeing old friends again. 'je reviendrai' Pros - See my review Cons - Stairs throughout the resort, no elevators.
