One of the reasons that I love Martinique, that sensual, sophisticated French Caribbean island, is that I love (Hotel) Plein Soleil. Over the years, I have watched it “grow up.” Both it and the owner, Jean Christophe, came of age in the hotel business some 17 years ago; its restaurant always refined, is now a landmark for contemporary cuisine, a...

We read a lot of reviews on Trip Advisor about this hotel and they all mentioned the same thing - the "road" into the hotel is appaling - it's like driving through the middle of a quarry. If you do decide to visit, the best way to get there is via a little village called "Chappotte". I think in general... More

We've been home over a month now and my feet still haven't touched the ground. The Hotel Plein Soleil provided the perfect setting for the trip of a lifetime. Simply gorgeous all around: the grounds, the suite, the staff, the food. Perfectly private and romantic, perfectly appointed suite, luxurious and spacious bath, and private pool. The staff treated us like... More

We stayed here for three nights after having a flight cancelled, another flight delayed, and fleeing from a terrible hotel.....when we arrived we were very much in need of some relaxation and some luxury, and this hotel provided both in spades. It's a lovely, stylish boutique hotel set in the hills outside of Le Francois. It is a remote location... More

This was the 2nd hotel of our trip. It was not on the beach but had a great pool. The hotel is really cute & chic. Definitely a romantic spot not made for young children but they were extremely accommodating for our son. When we arrived we got there 1 hr before check in but the staff made great efforts... More

Spent a week travelling around Martinique and stumbled upon this wonderful place seemingly in the middle of nowhere. Quite the best of the French Caribbean. Exquisite food (breakfasts especially), service and rooms. Petals strewn on empty tables is one of many lovely touches. Do hire a car if you stay here, and it becomes the perfect base to explore from.... More

Great hotel located on the eastern part of Martinique (Le François). We didn't clearly knew what to expect before arriving at the property and we were very impressed. It is located 10 minutes away from Le François and 5 minutes away from the main road going along the coast. As we wanted to go around the island and visit, the... More

- Hotel is beautifully located on a hill in a quite residential area of Martinique (you definetly need a rental car to move around the island) - The restaurant and our room (which was a master room with terrace) had an amazing view on the ocean - Rooms are spacious and nicely furnished - Food was delicious and surely the...

Where to start? I have stayed in many hotels in my (short!) life, both for business and leisure, and I am quite picky when it turns to saying a hotel is great. But when thinking of my 5 days in the Plein Soleil, I can't help but wish that I was there again. And I am writing this from a... More

This is a great place to stay. We stayed there for a week in november 2002. It is quiet spot for those who want to avoid the big crowded hotels on the other side of the island. Setting and scenery is fantastic. Breakfast on the patio was something you would want to get up early for, and is a pleasant... More
