Tropical charm and Wild Nature

A Luxury St. Barts Holiday

Why choose between two island resorts when you can visit both in one trip? It's much better to visit both! First, spend three nights in charming and refined accommodation in the north-west of the island, on the side of the pretty Baie des Flamands. Then spend the following four nights of your luxury St. Barts holiday in the south-east, overlooking Anse Toiny, in a Relais & Châteaux property set far apart from the crowds. Explore the island - with the wind in your hair - in your own convertible Mini Cooper and enjoy a private catamaran cruise we’re organised for you. For the rest of the luxury St. Barts holiday, you can enjoy the island at your own pace, whether you want to take it slow, lazing by the pool and relaxing on the beach, or go exploring - we’ve got plenty of suggestions for you if you want to discover more of the island.

BAY DES FLAMANDS - YOUR TROPICAL AND COLONIAL REFUGE

This tropical hotel, perched on the Colombier heights and overlooking the Baie des Flamands, is owned by the Sibuet family who also look after several charming hotels in the Alps and Saint-Tropez. The lush garden filled with fragrant mango and bougainvillea gives these bungalows and villas a lovely exotic atmosphere, like that of a Creole family retreat. The vibe extends across the verandas and the terraces as well as in the airy rooms with a soft yet bright colour palette, exotic wallpapers, rich fabrics and antique furnishings. Within the garden is a gourmet restaurant, which is renowned across the island. The cuisine blends French tradition with local flavours: lobster and grilled vegetables, catch of the day, truffle salads, coconut blancmange and flambéed bananas. There is also a rum and cigar bar with a laid-back Creole atmosphere and a sleek ebony bar, and a spa where you can enjoy flower treatments and hot shell rituals – a must on your luxury St. Barts holiday.

ANSE TOINY - A PARADISE FAR FROM THE CROWDS

Set on a hill in Anse Toiny, in the south-east of the island, this hotel is one of St. Bart’s exclusive accommodation options, far from the crowds. This tropical paradise is set in the heart of a 17-hectare palm plantation situated next to a beautiful sandy beach on the island's so-called wild coast. This iconic Relais & Châteaux property was recently given a makeover, which has given it a new “seaside chic” vibe that celebrates refined luxury and timeless Caribbean elegance. Its 15 villa-suites, inspired by the planters’ houses, use natural materials and soft tones, and are decorated with driftwood, bleached teak and rich fabrics as well as large openings to the exterior and touches of bright blue to mirror the azure sea. For an added touch of glamour on your luxury St. Barts holiday, each villa has its own vast terrace and private swimming pool, facing Anse Toiny. It’s possible to get to the beach below – an unspoiled, wild surf beach – via a short shuttle ride. There’s a cocktail bar here which is popular on the island for its daring creations, adjoining shop, and barbeque area where you can relax on a deckchair with your feet in the sand and relax under swaying Coccolobas trees. If you’re feeling more energetic, you can try your hand at kiteboarding, windsurfing or diving. When it comes to the cuisine, sample French flavours with a delicious Caribbean twist at the hotel’s elegant restaurant. And don’t miss the chance to indulge at the spa which is nestled in the lush vegetation. It offers a wide variety of treatments inspired by the island’s sweet scents: such as a lime and ginger salt scrub.
