Anse Marcel Beach, St Martin

The drive offers some breathtaking panoramic views that you won’t want to have missed to take on picture. A short walk from the parking at the entrance of Anse Marcel will take you to this fabulous beach that is facing the northeast coast of Anguilla. This is not the location for people that want a lot of action (long drive from the nightlife of the dutch side) but the beaches on the French side are more beautiful. The hotel manager Bernard was very good to us and even provided decongestants when we had none and informed us of local tours and restaurants that were amazing. There is a walk to the beach, but to be honest that beach is nothing compared to Orient Beach which is a 5 minute drive from the hotel. I would recommend renting a car and heading to Orient.

Anse Marcel Bay, St Martin

Within 5 minutes drive there are 4 golf courses (discounts with preferred tee times), horseback riding and diving. Three restaurants on the property range from casual beach dining to eclectic New Caribbean cuisine.   Anse Marcel is a pleasant, upscale beach for couples and families. In addition to having to drive everywhere but to dinner, this was the biggest surprise for us. Not only are the two ATMs each a 10-15min drive away, but all of the restaurants expect cash tips (no line on the credit slip for tips) so you go through cash very quickly.

Anse Marcel Marina, St Martin

Many guests are attracted to the great shopping, restaurants and casinos the island has to offer. Martin villa renters will find they can enjoy both sides of the island no matter the location of your rental. Nonetheless, there are planty of places to stay and plenty of restaurants in the area and as the photo on the right shows, one of the prettiest little harbors on the island. That’s Little Cay and Pinel, great for laid back sunbathing and snorkeling. King size bed and an amazing view of the ocean, Anguilla Island and the marina. Room with sofa bed or cathedral ceiling are available on request.
 

C Le Restaurant offers appetizers and lunch during the day and transforms into a gourmet French/Caribbean restaurant and lounge in the evenings. Guests can also enjoy breakfast and dinner at Le March, our market-style bistro eatery featuring a brick oven pizza rotisserie. There are several mountains with the tallest being Pic Paradis (424 m/1400 ft) on the French side. St Maarten was never an island with lush vegetation, which is due to a lack of rain and rivers. La Veranda serves French and Creole dishes for lunch and gourmet cuisine for dinner. It also has a beach bar.

The snorkeling right outside your room rivals places we’ve been in Hawaii (where you almost always have to drive somewhere). My wife is a diver and I finished my dive certification with a dive shop just 150 yards down the road (Octopus Diving). Martin’s best sources for snorkeling and other beach diversions is Carib Watersports (tel. The main allure, however, are the guided snorkeling trips to St. Martin. Take a five minute walk to Dawn Beach, renowned as the best snorkeling beach on the island and stroll down the beach to Busby’s where local Caribe beer is 75 cents every afternoon.

Guests excited to snorkel must find their way to Orient Beach. A few hundred yards to the west is Smiths Reef -- probably one of the best snorkeling spots on the island. Dawn Beach has been designed to provide every possible comfort to its occupants including an elevator which services all 3 floors. Also available on the beach are kayaks, snorkeling gear, and non-motorized watercraft. A whirlpool adjoins the swimming pool.

Ideally located for shopping, restaurants, and casinos, Royal Palm is the ultimate. The restaurant at Loterie Farm is also worthwhile a trip, even if you are passing at the challenging Fly Zone event! Resort features two restaurants, pool, whirlpool, massage therapy 7 days a week, full gym, water aerobics. Resort is located right on Dawn beach, chairs and umbrellas are free to all guests.

The hotel also still has a pretty unfinished look on the outside (and there is still construction of condos going on on the property). People who come to this resort and never go to other parts of the island are missing out and are a good example of why Americans have the reputation for being uncultured, untraveled, and unsophisticated. Here are the details of the hotel and of my trip: Location – The location of the Westin is about 35 minutes away from the airport. It costs $30 each way and probably more if you have a . As you would expect, some are developed and very lively, with hotels or a line of beach bars, but there are other quieter beaches where you can get away in relative seclusion. With its coral foundations, the island has excellent light coloured sand which washes ashore in mounds against a superb, translucent blue sea.
