La Samanna, A Belmond Hotel, St Martin

This property was over the top and went out of their way to make our 5 days there so very special. Property/rooms are gorgeous but it’s the people and service that puts La Sammana over the top. Housekeeping did a wonderful and discrete job keeping our beautiful oceanfront room. There was never a problem finding a spot on the beach or at the pool despite the hotel being sold out due to a wedding. The food and drinks are very good. But again, it’s the people and attention to detail that make staying there so special. Special shout out to Guillaume who did a great job and we enjoyed chatting with him. Anthony, Emanuel, Sofia, Christina, JuJu, Michele, Alex were amazing. And our good friend Luca at the Italian restaurant: Grazie mile!

I recently stayed overnight at La Samanna and had an exceptional experience. I rarely take the time to write a review but this resort truly deserves it - from the setting to the incredible service. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming and the hotel attendants were helpful in handling luggage and coordinating transportation. I stayed in a one-bedroom suite with a plunge pool overlooking the water with stunning sunset views. The food at the resort was also very good - In particular, I would highly recommend Laplaj for lunch overlooking the water and ask for Vincent. Vincent went above and beyond to provide exemplary hospitality and a level of service that's rare even at the finest properties in the world. All in all it was an incredible resort and I hope to return again for a longer stay.

Stunning location amazing rooms amazing service - I couldn’t fault anything! We will be back for sure

We had an incredible experience with our four month old daughter at La Samanna, for a 4 day/3 night stay. From the moment we arrived, the staff were so friendly and went out of their way to help with everything. They would help with the stroller, put us at tables with plenty of space, and even had a little toy for her. We couldn’t have been happier with the resort and the staff. Salome, Guy, Gio (I hope I got the names right) and all the rest made our trip unforgettable. The property is huge, so we took several walks around, and there is enough variety of restaurants and pool/beach areas that we felt like every day was different. We had one of the terrace suites with Jacuzzi which had incredible views of the sea for sunrise and sunset. The room was expensive, but the convenience of having all that private outdoor space was worth it. The food was very good - we mostly did room service for dinner because of the little one, but ate at L’Oursin on the last night which was a nice experience (and again, the wait staff were so so friendly). They even packaged up dessert for us to go since our daughter was starting to get tired. Overall outstanding property. We’ve stayed at other Belmonds before and were pleased that this was a similar level of quality.

Overall a very good first class place , room for improvement in some areas, specifically size and arrangement of bathroom ( shower) as well as furniture of room ( little storage)

Worth every $. Beds and pillows comfortable, quiet property (we usually need white noise but not here, beautiful decor and views of the ocean. Super clean, rich vibes - perfect for my husband and I. A much romantic getaway!
