I used TripAdvisor to help me determine my trip destination for my 40th Birthday by myself. I could not have chose a better place to stay than Les Balcones in Oyster Pond on the beautiful island of St. Maarten. This was my first time visiting the island. I stayed for two nights with an 11 hour layover in Puerto Rico... More

This was our fourth stay at Les Balcons and it won't be our last. The view from our upper level wooden porch was amazing. You not only have a beautiful view of the marina but the ocean as well. The rooms are cozy and inviting. Great location for getting around the island, so be sure to rent a car. Bring... More

I spent 3 days here, on the recommendation of Lonely Planet, after a 1 week sailing trip. It was the perfect end to my vacation. Great location, quiet, large, tastefully decorated, clean, fully-equipped unit, with a huge porch overlooking the marina and the sea beyond. The manager, Carine Poret, and her staff were friendly, accomodating, and full of great information... More

The reviews for this lodging option were spot on. The location was lovely, although parking was a bit cramped. The view of the marina is wonderful, and the furnishings are well-maintained. The bed was far more comfortable than the supposed 4-star hotel we stayed in for 2 nights before. A few problems with the shower function and water pressure, but... More

We have been coming to Les Balcons for 8 years and have just had another lovely holiday. Personally, I think the service is excellent. The information that is sent out when booking clearly states that linens are only changed for stays of more than 6 nights and the accommodation is self-catered; I always expect to buy my own supplies, washing...

Just returned from our 9 days at Les Balcons. Thanks to all the Tripadvisors who encouraged us to go there. And enormous thanks to Carine and David who are even better, more helpful and charming hosts than we could have expected. Loved Oyster Pond--a small, laid back, quiet community with lovely views and just about as much activity as we... More

Les balcons is a charming place to stay, but as the owners will tell you - it's not a hotel. Each room has a lovely balcony that overlooks Oyster Bay, one of the most picturesque locations on the island and definitely one of the quietest. Highlights include: gorgeous views onto the marina, spacious balcony with nice furniture and grill, well-stocked... More

We stayed in the Sweety Cottage in early Feb 2013 which is situated just down the road from the Les Balcons but is owned/managed by the same couple (David and Carine). The cottage is beautiful: It has it's own plunge pool with a deck that is more than adequate size. While you relax in the pool or sit on the... More

Lonely Planet rates Les Balcons as one of the best buys in the entire eastern Caribbean, and they are right. The rates are reasonable; the rooms are lovely; and the proprietors are fabulous. If you are looking for a glitzy, all-inclusive hotel, Les Balcons is not for you. If you are interested in getting to know St. Martin, Les Balcons... More
