Subject:	St. Martin from Toronto, Canada
Message:	Hi, I've been looking into St. Martin for our annual Christmas vacation. I've found that only a few of our major tour operators sell St. Martin and of the few that do, they offer only a scattering of properties, the majority seem to be on the dutch side. Are there any other Canadians here that have stayed on the French side of St. Martin's and if so, where have you stayed and how/who did you book with? One other thing that seems to be the norm with the Canadian tour companies who sell St. Martin, is that most of the properties offered are all inclusives. I'm thinking that with all the great restaurants I here about there, all inclusive is not the way to go when in St. Martin?? I have found a tour company offering Le Plantation and I've read good reviews for the place. Just wondering how far from the beach there to the end in front of Club O? I understand Coco beach is very close, is this more c/o than nude? Any and all input greatly appreciated!! p.s. we travel from the 22nd thru the 29th of December. How busy is it that week? Is that a good time to go? Thanks so much!!
