- "The rooms are so lovely. The pool and the in-room spa was delightful. The bed was dreamy. The staff are always helpful, friendly, and responsive, even in the middle of the night. The service was excellent. And the restaurant is amazing." - "The room was absolutely beautiful as was the property. Lots of thoughtful details, like a bug swatter lol. The bed was big and comfortable, and there was an automatic shade so you could make it dark in the room. The coffee maker was really nice. We had a problem with the hot water but that's because we turned the handle the wrong way, and nevertheless the manager came over on a sunday night to help fix it. The restaurant is closed on sunday (we didn't know this) so we didn't get to try it, but the following day after breakfast (which was delicious-- fruit was so sweet and perfect) we treated ourselves to some of the amazing cocktails and they did not disappoint."

The property and the staff is amazing, they will definitely do ANYTHING to make your stay perfect and comfortable as possible, from the staff at the reception/concierge to the staff at the restaurant! A very special thanks to Alizée from the concierge who spared no effort to help with all our reservations during our stay on the island. Also the property location is amazing, because the beach there is very calm since it’s located inside a bay, so it’s a perfect location for couples who want to relax in a more intimate and private environment. Thanks to all the Le Sereno staff for making our stay as perfect as possible and hope to see you again next year! Ps: if you are wondering if the hotel is distant from town, I wouldn’t worry about that, it will take you around 10 minutes from the hotel to town by car and there’s little to no traffic at all. I’d also suggest you rent a Countryman Mini Cooper, since it’s a compact car and easy to drive around."

- "My wife and I recently stayed at Villa Jwi Lavi Boutique Hotel in Saint Martin for a weekend getaway (March 29-31, 2025), and it was a delightful experience! This charming boutique hotel is tucked away in a peaceful spot in Cul-de-Sac, just a short drive from Grandes Cayes Beach, Orient Bay and Anse Marcel. The location is perfect if you’re looking for a quiet escape with easy access to some of the island’s best spots on the French side—though you’ll definitely need a car to get around. The room was spacious, modern, and spotlessly clean, with all the essentials: comfy bed, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom stocked with free toiletries. I loved the little touches like the electric kettle and the seating area—perfect for unwinding after a day out. Our rooms had a lovely balcony with sea views. The shared lounge and terrace were highlights for me. The pool area is small but inviting, and it was great to relax there with a view of Pinel Island in the distance. Breakfast was a simple continental affair—freshly baked croissants, juice, and coffee—but it hit the spot each morning. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, offering tips on nearby hikes and beaches, which made the stay feel personal and welcoming. Free Wi-Fi worked flawlessly, and the free private parking was a big plus. It’s not a luxury resort by any means, but for a boutique stay with a cozy, homey vibe, it’s hard to beat. I’d happily return for the tranquility and great value—highly recommend for couples or anyone wanting a laid-back Saint Martin base"
