Grand Case Hotels

Front desk was very friendly and helpful in everything I asked of them. Room was clean and comfortable. The restaurant food was good and the staff was great.It is a quiet and restful place to stay. Short walk to town many fine restaurants,the food was great,Everyone we met was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay

I stayed at Grand Case Beach Club for 5 nights with my SO, my sister and her SO, and my mother and we couldn't have had a better time. We were drawn to the french side of the island, St. Martin, because we wanted a relaxing, slower paced vacation than what the dutch side offers. The resort is beautiful. The grounds are clean and well manicured. The rooms are very clean, well maintained, and up to date. The staff are very helpful. The beaches, both the north and south stretches, are pristine and never crowded. The onsite restaurant, Sunset Cafe, consistently served great food; I would order from their specials always. They have convenient flags on the beach chairs so you can order a drink right on the water. I read some other reviews complaining how the billing for the cafe is separate from the resort. Not sure what the problem is. You simply let them know your room number and you settle the tab before you check out. Easy. While the resort is located in a nice little secluded pocket on the island, only a 5 minutes walk away is the Grand Case strip where there are plenty of cafes, restaurants, and lolos (island bbq joints). Everything else is a bus or taxi ride away (max 30 minutes to anywhere on the island, at least for us). The only thing I can think of one should be aware of when coming here is that the free continental breakfast isn't really so. At the cafe, you are greeted with free orange juice and baskets of bread rolls, but anything other than that is extra that must be purchased. But really, I'm splitting hairs here. Out of a trip of 6 days with a large family, this was an extremely pleasant stay. I will be staying here again in the future.

GCBC became our 'go to' place on St. Martin. Have stayed there nine times since 2000. Many of the employees remember us. Have our 'spot' on the beach. Look forward to going there every year.

Have returned to GCBC eight times in the past 11 years. We just love ST. Martin, and this property is just the right size for us. The staff members are all long time employees, and really are very caring, attentive people. The Monday managers cocktail party is something we look forward to, and get to socialize with other guests. Many great restaurants and shops within walking distance down in Grand Case. My wife and I have nothing but praise for GCBC. Hope to continue coming back for many years to come.

Steps away from the best restaurants in the Caribbean, we really enjoyed our stay in Grand Case. The rooms were clean and well maintained, but then again I really wasn't interested in the room and more in the great beaches right outside. The security was great as well making us feel safe in what happens to be uncertain times in the St. Maarten area.

We spent a week at the Grand Case resort and were very pleased! There is a lovely restaurant overlooking the ocean which has a nice continental breakfast every morning. The chocolate croissants were great! There are also plenty of good restaurants in town within walking distance. Lots of idyllic views and hammocks to sit back and relax. The watersports office also offered plenty of activities. I would stay again.

This beach resort is an excellent place to get away and relax. The location is on the boulevard strip, the 'hot place' in the town of grand chase. The staff was very friendly and very helpful which made my stay even more enjoyable. The rooms were always tidy bath towels and wash rags were changed everyday...beach towels were changed at request. At Grand Chase there goal is to make u comfortable and to accomadate for any circumstances you may have. Overall i am very happy with my stay at Grand Chase Beach Resort and i hopefully plan to return.

Has a nice beach, although smallish, with attentive beach attendants and great snorkling. Very nice on site restaurant and bar, but hotel's best feature is it's proximity to great dining within walking distance. Not cheap (especially if you have U.S dollars), but some of the best French and Italian food you'll ever have on an island. The hotel itself is in ok shape, flatscreen tvs in rooms and I-pod players, but bathrooms are small and if you're over 5'9' make sure you're not on the 3rd floor or you'll be hitting your head on the loft ceiling getting out of bed. Maid service was OK, but they're tight with the soap and towels, so stock up when you see them. Also, make sure you exchange your beach towels before noon, because for some reason they won't do it a minute after.

Service was wonderful and friendly, room was beautiful, pools and food great, wireless perfect, onsite car rental at good price Our refrigerator could have been colder

Beautiful outside decor, everyone very friendly, great breakfasts included! Could paddle board and fly board right in front of the resort. Loved all the sailboats in the lagoon. Had a lot more space then lots of others. Loved it all!

Location I was quotedXXX when I booked the reservation. It actually came thru asXXX euros. I was told the exchange rate wad1-1.3. That comes out tp approximately XXX. However, my credit card came thru atXXX About $65.00 was due to tips

I just returned from a week at the Alamanda and could not be happier with this hotel and location. It has everything I look for in a vacation accomodation, cleanliness, great staff, perfect location, easy access to beach and restaurants....... the Alamanda has it all!!

Captain Oliver's is tucked away in a quiet lagoon with a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains. It's like being in your own little world. They have a fantastic breakfast buffet (which is complementary with the price of your room). If you do want to socialize and mingle with people all you have to do is go down to the bar or restaurant which is also part of the Resort, and they usually have some sort of live entertainment going on at the restaurant. We stay at Captain Oliver's every time we're on St. Martin, we love it!

The hotel is surrounded by trees and feels like a residential area instead of an hotel. The restaurants and the shops on the premises were very reasonable and personable. The location is beautiful. We enjoyed being there and would stay there again. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

Very nice hotel with live entertainment. However, I like to walk ealy in the morning and there is no place to walk. the water taxi to the beach only runs from 9am to 3pm, that is not enough hours. there is no beach to walk to. $30.00 each way to town by taxi is a bid much. there is no regular public transportation. Excellent seafood buffet.

I have eaten at Captain Olivers Resort many times on past visits to the island so I was familiar with the location and layout. I had an extra night at the end of my trip so I chose Captain Oliver's. Nice quiet location, no traffic, pretty views, beautifu landscaping, and good all round service with friendly staff. The room had a private balcony with a nice view of the marina. The room itself was was more like a bungalow. For the price, what an absolute value. They even threw in two welcome drinks and breakfast. We ate dinner at the reataurant and were very pleased. \n\nI would definetely consider staying here again.

Captain Oliver's was a fantastic laid back resort. The serenity of the bungalow type rooms was perfect for a long romantic weekend! The charm of the resort and grounds made it a fun and unique place to hide out from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the island. The staff were all very courteous and helpful. The location right on the border of the french and dutch side made it easy and quick to get wherever we wanted on the island. The pool may not be big or exotic or exciting, but it had character with the wall overlooking the bar! It made for some cute pictures for sure. The view from our balcony was incredible and romantic. We didn't eat at the restaurant but hopefully we'll be back and enjoy more time at the resort! If you are looking for simple charm, this is the resort for you!

If you're looking for luxury and modern amenities, this isn't the place for you. On the other hand, if you are looking for quaint, relaxing, old time Caribbean feel with killer views, this is just what the doctor ordered! The staff is always helpful and pleasant and ready to please. We have stayed here many times, and will continue to do so. We have stayed in many different hotels and resorts in the Caribbean, but this remains our favorite. They also have an excellent restaurant that serves a breakfast buffet, lunch and dinner, or if you'd just like to have a drink and look out into the lagoon, and enjoy the warm breeze, pull up a stool at the Iguana Bar and enjoy.

I believe I already wrote a summary about this hotel but for some reason can not find this. In short: this hotel is perfect if you don't want to spend hundreds of dollars of night for a decent and comfortable hotel. It's small and cozy and offers everything needed for a comfortable stay for a very reasonable price. Although not easy to find, even if you're familiar with the island, but once found, it's a gem. Although no five stars, the room is spacious with all needed features. A king size bed, a working tv, spacious bathroom (with shower only) and a separate adjacent toilet. There is indeed a lisol scent in the beginning but that's not a deal breaker if you're not too picky. If there's anything I could say as a con it would be that there are no elevators and that the rooms could use some upgrading, but in general the room we had was more than fine. Shopping and dining are right around the corner and the beach is right at the hotel. No WiFi in the rooms but if you really need to be online, there's a cozy small reception area where you can internet. Guess this should also be possible if you have a room right above or close to the reception area. They furthermore have a continental breakfast included, which may not be more than croissants and a sandwich, with juice, coffee and tea, but this will work just fine for most people who don't need french toast or bacon and egg every day. It's a good and decent first meal to get your day started. The service was good and all the staff were friendly and greeted us sincerely. It's kind of far from the action if you're into casino's and the wild disco night life, but if you're looking for some peace and serenity in a beautiful environment and have rental car, this is the best place to be for the money. We had no issues at all with robbery, which I did ones when I stayed in Miami. Just use your common sense and all will be well. Conclusion: This is a perfect spot for the money you'll pay, kind of hard to find at first, but grea...

L'Hoste Hotel is an excellent value property just steps from beautiful Orient Beach. Rooms are studios with adequate furnishings and a small kitchenette. Every room has a small patio or balcony. Breakast at Madras is always good, and the hotel and restaurant staff are always pleasant and helpful. L'Hoste also has a small but very nice pool with great lounge chairs. Wi-fi is free in the lobby, but no Internet access in the rooms. This was my fourth stay at L'Hoste, and I continue to find this hotel a good value considering that it is right at the beach and a short walk to the restaurants and shops at Orient Bay Village. I've stayed here with my wife; I imagine that it would be fine for a family with one or two young children. Older children might feel confined to the extent that thay had to spend time in the room. The Hotel has re-decorated over the past few years. I found my roomto be rather drab with a brown-tan-beige color scheme. As part of their renovation, the hotel now provides great satellite TV with plenty of channels should you have to spend time indoors.

The Hotel is in a good location and the staff were very helpful. Especially Jeremy who helped us with several issues. The free internet only works near the pool and not in the rooms. This is a wonderful location, but all resturants in the area are a bit pricier that those in the States. Expect to spend around $60 USD for a meal for two (e.g. burger, fries, soda and Pizza, bottled water). The room does have a stove and microwave, but most all grocery items are about twice the cost in the states, but it is an island and everything is imported. If you are looking for a nightlife, the dutch side of the island is better for you, If you want slow and quiet this is an excellent pick.

This is not our first visit to L'hoste. The staff remembers us and are most accommodating. DeDe (sp) is just delightful. He will help with any arrangements you need to make and always has a smile. The ladies serving the breakfast are very cordial in the morning. While the breakfast is the same every day (fruit, yogurt, juice, bread, croissants, coffee/tea) it's enough to get you going and it's always fresh. The rooms have been updated with flat screen TV's and many more US channels. The location to Orient Beach cannot be beat. If you are expecting 5 star quality this is not the place for you. However, if you want clean, comfortable and quaint, close to everything and walking distance to the beach you can't go wrong staying at L'Hoste.

Great place to stay on Orient Beach. The staff were friendly and the breakfast poolside is a nice option. The room was spacious and comfortable, with cable channels around 45 or so available. The only negative was the beach help wouldn't serve us drinks, although they may not have been affiliated with the hotel itself.
