We stayed in Grand Case in Feb 2012. This hotel is no longer called the Chez Martine. The new name is the Love. It has been bought by a french family, about 2 years ago, and has undergone a complete make-over. The rooms are all newly refurbished, but frill free.

We stayed the first week on a villa on the Dutch side which was lovely. We planned to stay the last 2 nights at Chez Martine. We were impressed with the reviews on Trip Advisor. However, we did not have the wonderful experience that so many others described. When we arrived, our reservations were not recorded, so we were not... More

If you read the previous reviews and want to stay at the Chez Martine because of the top tier management, do not come here. In the last month there was a staff change and it was apparently a change for the worse. The owner, manager, and cook are unfriendly and frankly, creepy. Also, breakfast was not as described and only... More

We stayed on the 2nd floor where we found the accomodations nice and the veiw of the bay breath taking. The restaurant was excellent as all are on Grand Case. The manager ( Mr. Richardson) was very helpful and acted upon our requests in good response time. The only negative was that the beach was very narrow and one of... More

When you book a room at this hotel, make absolutely sure that you get a room upstairs and preferably beach-side. Our room, no.1, sat on the corridor along which clients approached the hotel's restaurant. So, we didn't gey any peace until about 2 a.m. Then, being next to the main road, we had to put up with the sound of... More

If you are simply looking for a "base of operations", this is the hotel for you. This is not a resort, it's a small but excellent french restaurant with a 7-room hotel attached. We stayed in the "suite" for five nights and then moved into one of the other upstairs rooms for our last night. Our first night we were... More

My wife and I enjoyed five nights at Chez Martine in Grand Case in October, 2005. The accommodations were good, and the service outstanding. Rudy, the proprietor-manager, works very hard to make his establishment first rate. The beach is beautiful and clean in Grand Case, and the hotel is right on the beach, with a gorgeous view from the dining... More

It was our first trip to St. Martin, staying 1 week at Divi Little Bay (Dutch side) and another week at Cottages de Lonvilliers (French side). In order to get the flight we wanted we needed to stay an extra night at the end of our trip. We read about Chez Martin form Trip Advisor and booked 1 night for... More

A modest gem - perfect for a quiet get-away to St. Martin and a great base for exploring the island. The hotel's excellence is a direct result of the manager, Rudy. Although the restaurant downstairs in the money-maker, Rudy ensures his guests have an excellent and comfortable stay. No TV, phone, internet or minibar, this is a quiet and romantic... More
