TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin Orient Beach Hotel

Hi,
It’s been quite awhile since I’ve posted anything on here! I’m planning a trip back to St. Martin next May and I’m thinking of staying at Orient Beach Hotel.
Has anyone stayed here before, and could you share about your experience?
Thank you !!

We stayed at Orient Beach Hotel went it was Blue Bay Beach Hotel right before Irma badly damaged it. New owners, completely remodeled including a new pool. The place looks great. We will be staying there next week. Can't beat the location very close to the Village and the direct beach access.

As I recently wrote on TripAdvisor - "My wife and I stayed at Orient Beach Hotel for almost two weeks in April. It was our first visit to this property. The staff (i.e. Florence & Junior) excel at the art of hospitality. Their customer service is exceptional. In addition, our hotel room was both clean and comfortable, and the hotel location overlooking Orient Bay and adjacent to Orient Village is perfect. This hotel is outstanding, and we look forward to returning next year."
