Let’s explore the world of Saint-Martin gastronomy.
While Saint Martin is famously known as the ‘Friendly Island’, it is above all recognized as the gastronomic capital of the Caribbean. For guests staying in our prestigious properties, the culinary experience is more than just a meal: it is a sensory journey blending French expertise, international influences, and Creole flavors.
Discover how to enhance your stay in a luxury villa Saint-Martin with unforgettable gourmet moments.
Saint-Martin gastronomy Grand Case: The Boulevard of Fine Dining
An absolute must-visit, the village of Grand Case is an essential stop. This charming fishing village hosts some of the region’s finest tables, where chefs elevate local products (lobster, snapper, spices) with European techniques.
Le Pressoir: Set in an authentic Creole house, this is the go-to address for a refined experience and an exceptional wine list.
Ocean 82: For a dinner accompanied by the sound of the waves and a breathtaking view of the bay, perfect for a romantic sunset.
L’Auberge Gourmande: An institution offering classic French cuisine revisited with the treasures of the Caribbean Sea.
The ultimate experience: a private chef in your villa
The true privilege of a luxury villa Saint-Martin lies in the possibility of transforming your terrace into a private restaurant.
In collaboration with our local partners, Villa Prestige Antilles organizes bespoke services for you:
Signature Dinners: A private chef designs a tasting menu according to your preferences (gluten-free, vegan, or 100% local).
Seafront Breakfasts: Start your day with fresh products, tropical fruit juices, and artisanal pastries served by your infinity pool.
Private Cooking Classes: Learn the secrets of “mahi-mahi” or cod accras directly in your villa’s fully equipped kitchen.
Spotlight on "Chef Ours": A wild & refined experience
To truly elevate your stay, we frequently collaborate with one of the most iconic figures of the local culinary scene: Chef Ours (Cédric Gould). More than just a meal, a dinner orchestrated by Chef Ours is a performance.
Known for his charisma and passion for fresh ingredients, he brings a unique blend of French technique and Caribbean soul directly to your villa’s table.
Lunch with your toes in the Sand at Orient Bay
For a more relaxed yet equally selective atmosphere, Orient Bay is full of chic “Beach Clubs.” It is the ideal place to enjoy tuna tartare or grilled lobster between two swims in turquoise waters..
