Lowest priced room - they have only 5 - is 145 Euros, in low season. That figures to $1119/wk at current exchange rate (1.06 = 1) plus room tax. A little high, but it does look quite upscale.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.

As far as I know, there are 5 clothing optional resorts in St. Martin: Club Orient, Club Fantistico, Naturist's Getaway, Adam et Eve, and Jardin d'O. We always spend a week each at the 1st 2, and a trip to the island wouldn't be the same if we didn't. Now, if someone would sponsor us, we'd be glad to stay 5 weeks and give detailed trip reports on the other 3. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

thesimpsons said: When we were there in February, someone we know who usually stays at Club O stayed there. She stated that they would be returning to Club O in 2018. I don't recall any particulars Maybe she'll see this and reply. You wrote "When we were there in February..", did you mean 'there' as in Jardin d'O resort, or 'there' as in St. Martin?

thesimpsons said: I could have worded that better. I should have stated when we were on St. Martin.
We always stay at Club O. I made notes to do a trip report and I will try to do that. Probably pretty boring, mostly had beach days. That's mostly why we go to SXM- Boring beach days !! Thanks, looking forward to your trip report.

Do you know if they sustained damage and if so are they back to pre-Irma or something different. I don't know. We've never been there or stayed there. We have friends that stayed there in February 2017. The reports I read didn't indicate any lasting issues presently.

Yeah, lets not add anu undo doom and gloom on a serious but recoverable situation on Club O. The owners still own the units.
We love Club O, but the 2017 and 2016 June visits we spent at Mt Vernon. We lost the total freedom from wakeup, dinner and after dinner, but gained a great experience “off campus”. In june 2017, we actually booked Friday and Saturday night midtrip at Club O leaving most of our stuff at Mt Vernon. The big loss was dinner at Papagayo. We had two great dinners there. You could still get the leftover pastries at Boutique as an early day arriver. You could probably hang out for dinner and we contemplated several times. But there is that lull where everybody departs the beach for the chalet and we just used that time to further enjoy the beach and fully sober up for the drive. We went back to MV and actually said for the dough it was our way to go. But we will certainly patronize any reopened Club O by staying there ASAP.
Not having assugned chairs is a big disadvantge.
So, what im getting at is any nice place you can find for now will give you the dyatime Club O which is the majority of our experience. You can be AN, and we were on our balcony at MV. Plus we enjoyed getting off campus more.
Since MV is open but damaged, we are going to commute from dutch side. Well see what new detours from Orient that deleivers us.
Time for all to do a daily positive vibe meditation facing SXM fro quick resolution
