EXPERIENCE OVERVIEW

The small but stunning island of St. Martin, set between the Atlantic Ocean and the blue green Caribbean Sea, is known for its soft-sand beaches, world-class resorts, and high-end shopping districts. It’s both sophisticated and serene, with just the right blend of spectacular natural beauty and cosmopolitan flair—perfect for a romantic getaway or special occasion trip.

The southern half of the island is a Dutch territory known for its vibrant nightlife and casinos, while the northern half—an Overseas Collectivity of France—is renowned for its quiet (sometimes clothing-optional) beaches, rolling green hills, and incredible restaurants. This combination of European influence and Caribbean culture, along with the year-round warm weather and stunning coastline you’d expect from an island paradise, makes St. Martin a one-of-a-kind vacation destination.

For this trip, you’ll enjoy the luxurious accommodations, amazing amenities, and complimentary breakfast at the 5-star La Samanna Resort, located on Baie Longue, one of the island’s best beaches. Tucked away in the exclusive community of Terres Basses, a short drive from the French-side capital of Marigot, La Samanna offers everything you need for an unforgettable vacation.

The guest rooms here are elegant and comfortable, with special touches like honeycomb robes, L'Occitane bath amenities, and crisp, white sheets. Each room also features floor-to-ceiling windows, framing amazing views of the Caribbean Sea, as well as breezy balconies or terraces that are perfect for evening cocktails. 
At La Samanna, you can hang out by the two resort pools, play tennis on one of the three omni courts, book a massage at the spa, dine at their world-class restaurants, stroll through the lush, tropical gardens, and enjoy incredible seaside activities.

The private beach is spacious, with miles of white sand meeting an endless sea of blue. Comfortable cabanas and lounge chairs dot the shoreline, just steps away from the rolling surf. You can spend blissful days relaxing to the sound of gentle waves and enjoying the beachside lunch and bar service that’s available for guests or make use of the resort’s complimentary kayaks, Hobie Cats, and snorkel gear to get out into the water. The sea off the coast of St. Martin is always warm and clear, ideal for exploring and having fun.

Away from the resort, there’s even more to see and do. Go ziplining at Loterie Farm, take a guided hike to the top of Pic Paradis, or spend a day in Marigot exploring the town’s historic landmarks. There’s also a popular shopping district there filled with several well-known French brands, a variety of local shops, and cozy cafes. And if you want to visit the Dutch side of St. Martin, it’s as easy as renting a car or hiring a driver. You can travel freely between the two territories, making exploring the island convenient and fun.

As part of your trip, you’ll go beyond St. Martin for an exhilarating excursion to nearby Tintamarre. A pre-dawn boat ride will deliver you to this small, uninhabited island—a former mid-century airstrip, now part of the National Nature Reserve of St. Martin—where you will snorkel with turtles, learn more about the area’s rich marine life from a local conservationist, and explore the ruins and quiet beauty of this wild, natural place. Then to cap things off, you’ll share an energizing breakfast on the beach before heading back to the resort.

It’s an incredible experience that we know will make your St. Martin getaway a vacation you’ll never forget.
