Although many have already sung the praises of this hotel in detail, we had such a wonderful stay at L'Esplanade a couple of weeks ago I have to relate our own experience. It's hard not to have high expectations going in after reading all of the glowing reviews, but I am happy to report that our expectations were met and... more

We loved our stay at this wonderful hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was amazing. We stayed in the suite with the wrap around veranda. The room was very clean, spacious, and best of all, romantic. We actually ventured to La Sammana and concluded that this hotel was better. The location was ideal, near Restaurant Row which was... more

This small hotel was as good as most TripAdvisor ratings claimed. Very attentive staff; friendly housekeeping folks. Nice touches: during the day, cold water in lobby; lots of reading materials; a small gift shop; good toiletries. Excellent views from most rooms; lovely flowers and bushes. Very nice pool area, with some always shaded spots for day-time use. Showing some wear... more

From the time you arrive, you know you made the best choice of your trip so far. My words, and praise are nothing, because this hotel does such a great job, you wonder how did I get so lucky? We went here for our honeymoon, and I tell you to start off here, you can do know wrong. The room... more

L'Esplanade is a jewel of a property. I am a travel agent and we have visited more than 50 countries, and this was one of our top 5 vacations in the world. The hotel is perched on a mountain with spectacular views of Grand Case Bay. Below the hotel is Restaurant Row, renowned to be the best collection of restaurants... more

My husband and I honeymooned for part of our week at L'Esplanade. From beginning to end, our experience was personalized, unique, and very relaxing. I can not say enough about the staff. They were always available for any question or need. Upon arrival, they had placed a chilled champagne bottle and fresh flowers in our suite. We were in room... more

We stayed at L'Esplanade to have a quick getaway without the kids in Mid-April, 2008. Because the hotel was holding a wedding, they had only one room available, a one bedroom suite, the most expensive room, but still fairly priced. The room was immaculate and had beautiful furniture and a killer huge bathroom. The appliances were nicer than home! The... more

My wife and I just returned and loved it. We had a loft room w/ kitchen, wonderful balcony overlooking Grand Case and the ocean. It really is a treat. The service, from Alain at the pool bar, to the maid service was excellent. We felt bad for all the sand we washed off after a rough outing at Bay Rouge,... more

My husband and I celebrated part of our honeymoon at L'Esplanade last year and decided to again stay at the property for our first anniversary, 27-30 April 2008. Everything was as wonderful as we'd remembered it - breathtaking views, lush gardens, pleasant staff. As honeymooners we had received a complimentary bottle of champagne and this year we received a compilmentary... more
