Where to stay

Things to do

#### The French half of a small dual-nation island in the Caribbean, Saint Martin is a popular year-round holiday destination. As well as boasting beautiful beaches, excellent shopping and delicious French Caribbean cuisine, this stunning island offers plenty of exciting water and outdoor activities.

### Saint Martin Hotel + Flights

What’s better than unwinding on a tropical island? Scoring great savings along the way. With a Saint Martin Vacation Package you can save loads just by bundling your hotel and flight bookings. Choose from 3,582 Expedia-listed hotels starting at £203 a night, then add your flights. You can even include other bookings as well. Tours, experiences, car rentals? No problem. If you want to indulge your inner thrill-seeker, why not add a Fly Zone Treetop Adventure at Loterie Farm to your package as well?

### Your Saint Martin Vacation Itinerary

- Day 1: Most visitors arrive here via Princess Juliana International Airport in Philipsburg, in neighbouring Sint Maarten. Freshen up in your hotel in Saint Martin’s capital, Marigot, before checking out attractions like the West Indies Mall, Marigot Market and Fort Louis.
- Day 2: Pick up the keys to a rental car and cruise around the island. Stop off at Loterie Farm then head to Quartier D’Orléans, a seaside village on the eastern coast.
- Day 3: Don’t head home without savoring a sumptuous meal in Grand Case, known for its gourmet French cuisine. Time your visit to catch a glimpse of the elusive “green flash” as the sun sets over the ocean.
