Overall very good but …..
Pros:

The hotel itself is in the perfect location in front of the beach and all the amenities of Orient Bay. The room was nice with an amazing view (choose Ocean view) and parking was easy (but it was low season). Cleaning was good, even if the fridge in the room was always leaking and the bathroom shower needed a bit of more maintenance. There were few other issues that may annoy other clients, but there weren’t major for us (but certainly not worth giving 5 stars): the beach club in front of the hotel they generally use was closed, but they only informed us after booking (this is something you should clearly inform clients before)- similar issue with breakfast, they claim it is included but it is really essential (see pictures) and even the à la carte menu (that you have to pay) is not enough. The window lock didn’t work (safety issue) and the outside pool is quite small too. However, the location is the strong point and waking up with the ocean view, so it all depends on your priorities.

We will be back again.
Pros:

Almost everything was excellent. The front office staff was very friendly and helpful, our first floor room was very accommodating and fresh, the morning breakfast was a good way to start the day, walking distance to many good restaurants, location right on the beach. Housekeeping was inconsistent with their towel service. Yes, my wife and I will return to OBH next year.

We Loved French St. Martin and can’t wait to return
Pros:

The room and the location

Cons:

Beach chairs were less comfortable than other locations with cushions, restaurant breakfast was terrible, and simple welcome information such as how to locate taxis, where to buy water, extra towels would all be helpful.

Great hotel! Perfect location on the French side
Pros:

Beautiful hotel and friendly staff! We stayed there for 4 nights in June for our anniversary and had a great time. Our room was well-appointed and clean. The bed was comfortable, the AC strong and the view was incredible - even being on a ground floor unit that technically was considered a garden view.

The only thing that wasn’t great was the TV wasn’t working (it kept freezing) which ordinarily wouldn’t matter on vacation but it’s the World Cup so was hoping to catch some games at the end of the day. They had literally switched tv providers the day we arrived (on a Friday) and once Monday rolled around they had someone come out and fix it so that evening was fine. I’m sure it’s fine now and going forward.

The breakfast at KKO Beach was lovely. Light and refreshing to start the day but filling enough for the day. It was so nice to just take a short little stroll to sit outside and eat while watching the waves.

We didn’t make use of the pool or the other beach clubs so can’t speak on those but everything is walking distance which is great.

We enjoyed the little village area and all the restaurants nearby (the little pizza place Bona Mama is divine in particular).

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again!

Schöne Anlage, aber schwaches Frühstück & viele kleine Mängel
Pros:

Ein modernes, angenehmes Hotel mit guter Ausstattung, das durch sein schwaches Frühstück und die schleppende Kommunikation leider unter seinen Möglichkeiten bleibt.

Cons:

Das Frühstück ist eine echte Enttäuschung: Die Auswahl ist minimal, das Personal wirkt trotz kaum Betrieb völlig gestresst und überfordert, Vögel sitzen ungestört am Buffet – völlig unhygienisch – und um 09:15 Uhr ist bereits fast alles leer und wird abgeräumt, obwohl bis 10:00 Uhr geöffnet sein soll. Die Betten sind unangenehm hart und das Zimmer riecht stark nach Putzmittel. Vorabanfragen per Mail werden nur sehr schleppend beantwortet, ein Early Check-in wurde zunächst abgelehnt und funktionierte dann doch – das wirkt wenig professionell. Vom Erdgeschosszimmer gelangt man zudem nicht direkt zum Pool, was bei der Anlage unnötig umständlich ist.

Convenient to beach and restaurants
Pros:

My room was clean, and the daily housekeeping was good. The complimentary continental breakfast was basic, but that was all that I needed. The ability to use multiple beach clubs was a bonus. The sargassum was a bit of an issue, but workmen regularly removed what collected on the beach. Parking at the hotel was limited, and the parking spots were small, so renting a very small car is advisable if you need to drive around the island. I never had an issue finding a parking spot. There are a lot of restaurants at the Orient Bay Village, which is within walking distance of the hotel, so a car is not needed if you plan to stay just in the Orient Bay area.
