The Whimsy Hotel & Spa Saint-Martin - MGallery Collection is a Dynamic New Development in the Caribbean.

Accor, a world-leading hospitality group, in partnership with Terres de Légendes, is thrilled to announce the signing of a new hotel development, The Whimsy Hotel & Spa Saint-Martin - MGallery Collection. Located in the vibrant heart of Saint-Martin, it will be the first MGallery hotel to open in the Caribbean, a strategic location for the ongoing growth and development of the boutique-hotel collection brand MGallery.

Nestled along the pristine beaches of Saint-Martin, close to Marigot on the French side of the island, the hotel serves as an enchanting coastal haven, celebrating the island's rich cultural heritage while drawing inspiration from the natural beauty and local traditions. For over 20 years, the Beach Plaza Hotel has been an iconic symbol of tourism in Marigot. With its salt-dusted façade and feet in the water, this former Caribbean hotspot is now being revived as a luxury hotel, a stopover for Saint-Martin residents and travelers from around the world. It is a tribute to the French art of living and the vibrant local culture, where the rhythms of instruments intertwine with those of the waves. This essential combination anchors this new home for friends and families as the must-visit spot in the Caribbean.

The Whimsy Hotel & Spa Saint-Martin - MGallery Collection will serve as a sanctuary for relaxation, adventure, and rejuvenation. Travelers from around the world will be invited to immerse themselves in this unique retreat, designed to inspire wonder and encourage exploration of the island's captivating charm.

Set to open in 2025, The Whimsy Hotel & Spa Saint-Martin - MGallery Collection is poised to be a storied and sophisticated destination full of luxury, beauty, and culture. The project will encompass 165 hotel rooms, including 40 suites. The hotel will feature an array of amenities including a restaurant, three bars (Lobby Beach Bar, Rooftop Bar, Pool Juice Bar), a spa with four treatment rooms, a fitness center, and a 250-square-meter MICE facility. With its unique rooftop bar and beach club, the hotel is expected to become a major F&B&E destination on the island.

The hotel will join the esteemed MGallery Hotel Collection brand. Founded in 2008, the collection of signature, design, and heritage hotels today includes over 120 luxury boutique hotels worldwide. Over the past two years, the brand has been ambitiously opening and signing multiple hotels, with plans to grow by 30% our network & pipeline by 2030.

As part of a master development agreement, Patrice Seguin's vision of creating an "Event Location, engine of the local economy" has been brought to life with the support of Accor.
