Le Sud

Orient Bay, Hotel La Plantation

La Plantation’s pool bar restaurant in Orient Bay

Le Sud is located inside Hotel La Plantation, at C5 Parc de la Baie Orientale, slightly set back from the beach and the village. That position shapes the mood: instead of the immediate energy of Orient Bay beach, you step into a restaurant built around a large pool, covered terraces, parasols, soft lighting and a holiday-driven setting.

The day starts early with breakfast from 7 am to 10:30 am, served as a buffet or à la carte according to the official information. In the evening, the address turns into a pool bar restaurant: dinner from 6:30 pm to 10:30 pm, bar and pool atmosphere late in the day, cocktails, waterside tables and a Dolce Vita mood. Wednesday and Thursday are listed as special evenings, while Saturday is the pool party day.

The cooking sits between French dining, Mediterranean inspiration and vacation-friendly plates. Traveler reviews mention a fresh and varied menu, well-made cocktails, fish tartare, lobster bisque linguine, scallops, ceviche, foie gras, sea bass and specials depending on availability. The draw is not only the plate: it is also the setting, especially once the pool lights up at night.

Le Sud is convenient if you are staying in Orient Bay, Mont Vernon, Cul-de-Sac or the hills around Baie Orientale. From the village square, it is a short walk or a few minutes by car. For dinner, booking is useful, especially on music nights and on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

The 2026 hours provided show opening from 7 am to 10:30 pm Monday through Saturday, and from 7 am to 4 pm on Sunday. The restaurant is located at 18.0889382, -63.0254027 in the Orient Bay area.
