Le Martin Boutique Hôtel

In a place like St. Martin the phrase “boutique hotel” is a meaningful one — this sort of high-style, small-scale lodging is by no means common in the Caribbean the way it is in the world’s capital cities. Le Martin Boutique Hotel, then, makes a statement, if a subtle one, with its name; in this particular corner of the French West Indies, fans of boutique hospitality and modern, glamorous hotel interiors need look no further. Weighing in at a mere six suites and one room, Le Martin is just about as intimate as they come. And while the personal touch of its owners features heavily, it’d be misleading to call it a bed and breakfast. The accommodations are simply too substantial, too stylish, too thoughtfully equipped, too subtly high-tech. And while the only culinary constant is an abundant daily breakfast, the chef’s services may be engaged for a private dinner. A chic little pool deck is one of the daytime social centers, alongside a lounge with an honesty bar. And your hosts are on hand to arrange just about any activity you can think of, from island tours to water sports to whale watching and more.
