My wife and I just spent a week in Room 13 made infamous earlier in Mr. Kalaman's review. We had none of his issues and in fact had a wonderful time. Alex and the staff were great and very friendly and helpful. Really appreciated the short walk to the beach, the complimentary chairs and umbrella at Waikiki Beach as well... More

After my vacation with my son's family fell apart I found this hotel on internet and I am glad i did...I arrived way before the check-in time (3 o'clock) but Alexandra told me that my room was ready and I could get in, go to the beach, and that we would deal with the formalities after I come back.

This hotel came in a vacation package deal because we wanted to visit Orient Beach again but did not want to pay the exorbitant hotel prices of this area. My husband and I were more than pleasantly surprised at the comfort of the second floor room, the friendly staff and the beauty of the surroundings of this small hotel. This... More

Cannot say enough good things about this quaint boutique hotel in Orient Bay! If you want a quiet get-away in a laid back setting this is the hotel for you. We just spent 9 days at this smallish hotel enjoying the Morroccan ambience and little resident dog "Poopy" , French for puppy, who liked to escort us down to the... More

My husband and I loved this hotel - it was gorgeous! The bed was HUGE - a little hard, but I liked it okay. The grounds were well kept and the people there were very friendly and helpful. The 2 minute walk to the beach was GREAT! We also loved the security gate. The only thing I wouldn't do, unless... More

We’ve stayed in the Orient Bay area several times per year for 12 years. The Palm Court has changed owners several times but the buildings stay the same. Pleasant and a flavor of French Caribbean charm, yet not 5 star crazy opulent and sterile. The rooms could use a little updating but we didn’t pay $400 per night either. It’s... More

We asked for and received a 2nd floor room. It was clean, Not a five star but that does not exist in the Orient Bay area. After reading some of the reviews I considered canceling my reservation. I'm glad i didn't.  Alex could not have been more helpful. She went out of her way to be sure we had everything... More

It has been 25 years since we were in St. Martin and having traveled all over the Caribbean and read Trip Adviser reviews as I always do to make good decisions before choosing places to stay. Well this time it was a really bad decision to choose Palm Court. If you are expecting to see pink cheeked French ladies with... More

Dear Mr KALAMAN, I personally want to answer you as I find your review to be very unfair and untrue. First of all, I am sorry if you didn’t appreciate Orient Bay and its surroundings and if you find Orient Bay to be a “gypsy ghetto”. Then, when you say that when you enter the hotel, people will notice a... More

Where to begin... 1. The owner is not a people friendly person. 2. This place is advertised as a full kitchenet, but the cooking top did not work, the mini fridge was not cool enough to keep food. 3. The toilet is in it's own seperate room and the owner had bolted the bathroom window shut so you could not... More

Attitude and Biting Dog Orient Bay the beach and Plaza are nice and we had lots of fun. Orient Bay the residence and hotel area however looks like Disneyland’s Main Street after a crack induced weekend. Buildings need painting and a gardener.
