It’s within the orient beach village so there’s access to restaurants and stores around the village. Very safe, the only draw back is that the beach closest to the resort is renting out chairs for 15€ each, it’s nice and clean but not cheap. You can walk further to other beaches where it’s free if you’re staying at Esmeralda, just a little bit farther walk on the beach.

When you share a common door with the next room, there are noises you are going to hear that you definitely do not want to . Something has to be done about that. Gentlemen in charge of breakfast was super nice.

Overall a great room for the money, walking distance to the center of Orient bay and all the restaurants. Not far to Marigot if you have a car or take a taxi. Clean rooms and the staff was very good

The office staff were not friendly; housekeepers were good; breakfast was all carbs and very disappointing. We reserved king bed but got stuck with 2 beds. The air conditioning blew directly on our heads. Probably will not return to this property.
Additionally, no free beach chairs as claimed

It’s a quiet place and yet a few steps away from the beach, where there are great options for dining if you go further and explore different restaurants available at different spots.
