Saint-Michel-de-l'Attalaye (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ miʃɛl də latalaj]; Haitian Creole: Sen Michèl Latalay) is a commune in the Marmelade Arrondissement, in the Artibonite department of Haiti.

It is a scenic locale, surrounded by rich farmland, abundant water resources and distant mountain peaks in every direction.

There are excellent schools which are privately funded and a current (2011) small residential development outside of the main town area which is near completion which was originally sponsored by the central government.

There is a new joint venture nearing completion with a Taiwanese partner that plans to bring bamboo crafts and goods manufacturing skills training to the local people.
