Belmond La Samanna, St. Martin - Full-Time Travel

Belmond La Samanna

St. Martin, French West Indies
In a Nutshell:

Perched on top of a cliff overlooking a secluded private beach, Belmond La Samanna is everything you want from a luxury Caribbean resort. Here, you can spend your day relaxing in a cabana sipping champagne, make the most of the azure ocean with water sports activities, or head into Marigot town to soak up the French Caribbean flair of the St. Martin.

EDITOR'S TIP: Splurge on one of the private suites with a rooftop plunge pool. They’re the best for afternoon naps and the private sunset views.

Why We Love It:
    • The three and four bedroom villas and cottages are ideal for groups and families who want to stay in their own private abode
    • This property is a great size. You can walk everywhere easily or take advantage of golf carts when needed
    • The private beach is great for morning runs or evening strolls without the hassle. Look out for the pretty shells that wash up along the shore.
    • It’s only a 15 minute drive to St. Martin international airport, so you can be off the plane and onto the beach in no time

We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again: biking is one of the best ways to explore destinations both new and familiar. 🚴🏽‍♀️ And viceroyhotels seems to agree. The hotel group has just launched a selection of curated routes out of its hotels in Santa Monica, Chicago, Washington D.C., and the Algarve, Portugal, with cycling brand Rapha. Designed for serious bikers and leisurely riders alike, each guided route is designed to get lost in the hidden corners of each destination and connect with local communities in a way you can’t on four wheels.

You’ve heard of Michelin Stars, but what about Michelin Keys? Earlier this month, Michelin awarded its second-ever group of Keys to outstanding hotels and resorts in over 100 countries across every continent (save Antarctica). Included on the list with a top three-Key designation is South Africa’s stunning royalmalewane — which debuted the new Masiya’s Camp, pictured here, earlier this year.

Check the link in our bio for the full list of newly keyed properties…and while you’re there, sign up for our newsletter: more bucket-list worthy hotel recommendations are coming your way later this week.
