For luxury travelers who have been waiting patiently, the wait is no longer. La Samanna has officially reopened its doors after the completion of an extensive renovation project.
The exquisite resort, located on the French side of St. Martin, has completed the second phase of an extensive renovation project which set out to revitalize its long-standing reputation as the ultimate luxury Caribbean destination.
As a result of the expansion, the Orient-Express property now features two new restaurants and new-look lobby with sea views as well as a completely overhauled set of suites and rooms.
“La Samanna has been a quintessential Caribbean hideaway for more than three decades,” said General Manager Pascal Deyrolle. “While preserving the property’s authenticity is at the forefront of our Orient-Express approach, our doors reopen this season with revamped facilities and offerings designed specifically to bring back the glamour of luxury travel to St. Martin and the Caribbean.”
The two new restaurants, Trellis and Interlude, exude a deep appreciation for the world’s growing gastronomic culture. Both restaurants tastefully embrace French, Mediterranean, and Caribbean flavors, with The Trellis featuring French cuisine and an extensive Cote du Rhone selection while its counterpart, Interlude, offers a causal alternative for al fresco breakfast and dinner.
