La Plantation is like staying at a friend's summer cottage. It was clean, kitschy, but the refrigerator had some rust on it & the drawers would stick when opening. BUT the view was incredible, the staff was VERY friendly & helpful, the food in the restaurant was first class. The breakfast buffet (included) was the same every day, but included... More

This was my second trip to St. Martin and La Plantation made it a great one. I stayed in a "studio" room, lower level (I don't remember exactly what it was called). The room was spacious and clean, painted in pastel, Caribbean colors, with a large bathroom/shower and ample kitchen area. The porch was roomy and secluded with comfortable chairs... More

This was our 3rd stay here, and in past, we loved this resort, have fond memories. We booked with Air Canada Vacations -never do that! Nice to see the resort was fully booked. We always loved the privacy of the bungalows, up on the hills with beautiful views and sounds of the ocean. However, we were given the worst rooms... More

We found the hotel room very run down. Lighting was poor, the bathroom needs renovations and the kitchen applainces were rusted. We had a problem with bugs (worms) that could not be resolved. The bed was so uncomfortable that we actually left and moved to another hotel close by. The staff was not very helpful in trying to fix any... More

After a one week stay, this is my review: The good: I think this hotel is situated in a good location, though extremely difficult to find in the dark. The grounds are very pretty. The area has a village feel and the many speed bumps make it a relatively safe place to walk around. There is a plaza close by... More

After 10 years of visiting St. Martin, this was our first stay at La Plantation. The front desk staff is incredible, they cannot be more accommodating, from rectifying room issues to making restaurant reservations on short notice. The included breakfast is very European in style but adequate. The rooms could use some updating but they tend to be more comfortable... More

This hotel is on the French side of St. Maarten. We stayed at a villa overlooking the ocean. The wrap around terrace was charming, but we ended up not using the room other than to sleep so this add on was a waste. The rooms are run down. The mattress is uncomfortable and there are no king sized beds. The... More

Our selection of La Plantation was a result of research and positive information in Trip Adviser. The staff at all levels and times were very friendly and accommodating. Our studio was ready on our Tuesday early afternoon arrival. It was a clean and spacious unit in a three unit colorful building with a full semi private porch/veranda on the back.... More

Stayed at hotel for six nights. Room had an open sewer line in the closet which made this room smell disgusting, had to instruct them that it needed to be capped and requested a different room. Would not accommodate us with a change of room until the second night after the odor was still very bad. Asked to be credited... More
