Location

La Playa Orient Bay is a hotel that boasts an unbeatable location right on a beautiful, wide, white sand beach. Guests love the easy access to the beach and nearby restaurants with some reviewers noting that the hotel occupies a perfect spot on the beach. Despite being very centrally located, the hotel is situated in a more tranquil section of the beach, offering a respite from the busier parts. There are also plenty of parking spots available for those arriving by car. Guests note that the airport is easily reachable by car in 15 minutes. While some reviewers mention that the eastern coast can be windy, they also note that La Playa Orient Bay is well-located for exploring the island. The hotel itself is modern and chic and guests appreciate its exceptional location on Orient Bay.

Breakfast

The breakfast experience at La Playa Orient Bay seemed to elicit mixed reviews from guests. Some praised the breakfast, describing it as nice, excellent and very good. Others, however, found it poor, lacking variety and unimpressive for a four-star hotel with limited options for those with allergies or dietary restrictions. Some guests loved the location and space for breakfast, facing the sea, while others found the organization curious and suggested a buffet instead. Though the breakfast had room for improvement, it was still deemed extraordinary and included everything one needed for a good breakfast with French baguette, croissant and pain au chocolat being heavenly. Overall, the breakfast experience may not have been the strongest aspect of the hotel, but it did not detract from the stunning view and perfect service while eating.

Dinner

If you're looking for a hotel with great dining options, La Playa Orient Bay should be on your list. With a restaurant and bar on site, guests can enjoy delicious meals without even leaving the property. But if you want to venture out, there are plenty of options just a few minutes away, offering French, Japanese and Italian cuisine. The lunch menu at the beach bar is especially noteworthy with a super nice selection of dishes. But the real standout is the restaurant on the beach, which is a must-try during your stay. The food is très bon and the atmosphere is tres agréable. And if you don't feel like driving to the nearby village for dinner, don't worry - it's within walking distance. Overall, the dining options at La Playa Orient Bay are top-notch and won't disappoint.
