Rooms were excellent, spacious and modern, but I found two cockroaches in the bathroom during my stay, and the towels were old and worn. Extra towels were not provided upon request. Coffee was available in the room but every time I asked for more (coffee at breakfast was bad), I was told that guests are only allowed two coffee capsules per day per room. Breakfast was below average. Breakfast hours were 7 am to 10 pm. One morning I wanted to take a piece of bread at 10:10 am, and bread was still out on the bread board. I was told by staff that I was not allowed to take it because breakfast was over at 10 am. The next day I came a little after 7 am, but yogurt was not available until 7:15. Despite a good location, I will not choose this hotel again.

The location at Orient Bay is perfect. Just a few steps from a beautiful beach and comfortable lounge chairs. The restaurant for lunch is delicious and very convenient to have the food brought to you at the beach. Proximity to the plaza with about 10 different restaurants, most of them delicious. Some areas of improvement/caution: - Breakfast, which was included was the same every day. A little variety would be good. - They give you a card per person that you exchange for a beach towel every day and get back when you return the towel; you get a bracelet to identify you as a guest for breakfast or beach chairs; and then you have your key card. Lose any of these and they charge you. Most resorts I have been to don’t do this. A bit too much to worry about for someone trying to relax on vacation. - No dinner served at the hotel restaurant.

We had a superb week at La Playa! All came as advertised. The room was modern, comfortable and quiet. The beach is gorgeous - pristine sand with easy access to the warm, turquoise water. It certainly can be windy at times but you can always find respite in the pool area if you’d like, and if water sports are your thing you’ll be in heaven. The staff were all very friendly and a great source of advice about anything you may want to do outside the resort. Particular shout out to Elena, whom we happened to interact with most at the front desk. There are plenty of excellent restaurants in the village, along with a small grocery store. Combined with the resort’s breakfast, we had no shortage of food options. One thing to be aware of is that there are no ATM’s within walking distance, so it’s best to get some cash at the airport for tips or small purchases. Not a problem if you rent a car but taxis can get expensive in a hurry. Already thinking of our next trip to the island!

Very relaxing stay.
I had an excellent experience here. It is right on the beach but is walking distance to several highly rated restaurants. The hotel is very quiet and well-maintained. The staff was very helpful and friendly. A cab ride to Grand Case is $20. I also appreciated that my room had a mini kitchen with a small refrigerator. My only complaint t is that the coffee machine at breakfast is very fickle and I needed help to operate it.

Hotel and hotel staff were excellent. Bar and food were great. Beach umbrella/chair boys were the weak spot during our stay. Again and hotel restaurant and bar made up for it. This was our second visit to La Playa.

We only stayed here for a night because we had an extra day in St. Martin after visiting Anguilla. The staff was excellent, letting us check in early and setting up late check-out without us asking after they asked the time of our flight the following day. It's a great-looking facility with greenery and a good breakfast/bar area next to the beach.

A serviceable hotel
The staff flex between over hyping amenities (e.g. an “immaculate ocean view”, when the view is fine, but is obstructed and far from immaculate, to acting put upon for basic requests (e.g. ordering a good coffee from the bar at breakfast). The breakfast is fine, but you’d be better served going to another place around the island. This is a serviceable place but does not meet the expectations that were generated by the listing on the site.

Really loved this resort, and the island. Our suite had everything we needed and was super comfortable. Lived the small kitchen and that the toilet and shower room was separate. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Right on the beach, and the pool was fabulous too. Would definitely go back!!
