The French side of the island operates on 220 voltage.
Please check your electrical appliances in order to avoid accidents.
If you find that you are in need of a transformer or an adapter, we will be happy to provide you with one.
Private Safe
Please keep all of your valuables and money in the safe.
Hotel L'Esplanade is not responsible for lost, misplaced or stolen items.
Please note that there is only one key for your safe; if lost, you will be charged $150.00 in order for us to replace it.
For the environment:
Water
Water is one of our most precious resources on St. Martin.
Seawater is converted into fresh water by our desalination plant, a very expensive and energy-intensive process.
Please help us respect the environment by not wasting water. We truly appreciate your cooperation.
Air Conditioning
Please do not leave your windows or doors open while the air conditioning is on.
The unit will freeze, hindering the flow of cold air.
Recycle
Please help us in our effort to preserve the planet! Please place all of your plastic and glass in the blue bin beneath your sink.
The housekeepers will remove the items from your room daily.
For new towels, please leave your used towels on the floor. A towel hung up means "I would like to use it again."
What we really liked, though, were all the details: cucumber-infused water, a single-serve coffee maker, and a basket of cookies in the lobby; relaxing music, fresh baguette and bottled water in the room; rose petals in the bathroom.
Hotel L'Esplanade does such a nice job of pampering. A little welcome basket in our kitchen…and a few bottles of "help yourself" wine are placed in the lobby at dinnertime. Cheers!
We came here for our anniversary and when we were taken to our room, there was a beautiful arrangement of candles, flower petals and a bottle of champagne awaiting our arrival.
The cd player was playing island tunes (really nice touch in my opinion), fresh flowers were in every bathroom, nice toiletries, and a complimentary large bottle of water.
