If you're looking for West Indies charm, excellent location and the friendliest staff on the island, this is the place for you! You've got one of the best beaches right out your door, great restaurants you can walk to, and a staff that can't do enough for you. More

We just returned on January 14th from a fabulous 8 days at The Alamanda!! Our fourth time back since the opening in 2003 with our children who are now 19 and 21. All four of us have loved this resort every time, especially the wonderful manager, Vincent and staff. The Alamanda is our home away from home and we look... More

We stayed at the Alamanda about 6-7 years ago and appreciated then our stay. We came back for the first week of January 2012. In general, we have been slightly disappointed about the condition of the hotel now . The room have been repainted but that's about it. We had a few issues with the door lock, the water pressure,...

This was our first trip to St. Martin, & staying at the Alamanda was a great decision. The property is lovely, surrounded by lush greenery – the building is colonial-tropical style, painted in bright pastels. Charming interior décor with earthy tones, terra-cotta tiles, rattan furniture, & beautiful floral arrangements at reception give a welcoming feel. Check-in/out was fast & easy.... More

After numerous trips to St Martin, including stays at various other Orient Beach hotels, this was our first stay at Alamanda. This is one of the more expensive hotels on Orient, but in my opinion far from the best. Location and staff was superb, but the rooms can use updating and there was one thing that will prevent us from... More

We stayed at Alamanda December 18 to 25, 2011. We picked the hotel based on the reviews here and we were not disappointed. The hotel is a bit difficult to find at first, and as has been noted by others, even our driver from the airport wasn't sure how to get there. So if you are driving yourself -- especially... More

Have visited hotel many times over a six year period. Our experience keeps getting better because of the exceptional open hearted helpful staff. You can’t beat the location steps to the beach, walk to restaurants, all kinds of room layout choices, pool, and great breakfast. But the biggest asset is the staff from Vincent the general manager, front desk people,... More

The most important thing to us is location and Alamanda can't be beat. Steps away from one of the best beaches and steps away from several restaurants, conveniience store, etc. in Orient Village. You are also about a 10 minute drive to Grand Case which has numerous great restaurants. The hotel is in the process of updating the rooms, which... More

Location is 2 minutes walk away from Orient Beach and right next to the Orient village "food court area" - a plaza with 5-6 restaurants. We stayed in a 1st floor room. The room was spacious, large, comfortable bed, a kitchenette and a bathroom with separate tub-shower. Room had a small porch. Clearly the room and bathroom are a little... More

We spent a week at Alamanda in November. The owners are currently in the process of repainting. We were missing the remote for our TV and the curtains needed attention. The staff got us a remote immediately. The curtains never really were fixed. Other than this, we still had a wonderful time. Breakfast is included and for a small fee... More
