Loterie Farm

Pic Paradis, Saint Martin nature reserve

Lunch in nature, between the pool, forest and Pic Paradis

Loterie Farm is one of Saint Martin's most distinctive places: a green estate at the foot of Pic Paradis where visitors can have lunch at the Jungle Room, spend time by the pool, hike through the forest or add an activity such as the zipline.

For dining, the best moment is lunch. The restaurant sits in the trees, with open-air tables, cocktails, seasonal plates and a tropical atmosphere that feels very different from a beach restaurant. Lunch service is promoted from noon, with Caribbean and international influences that work well after a hike or before a pool afternoon.

For travelers, planning matters. The road climbs toward Pic Paradis, so coming by car or taxi is easier than walking. Reservations are recommended for the restaurant and online booking is required for some pool options. Bring swimwear, a towel, comfortable shoes if you plan to hike, and check the event calendar on pool party days, when the mood can become much more lively.
