10/10 Excellent

"This place is beautifully appointed , quiet and just idyllic , if I'm ever lucky enough to come to St Barts again I will stay here , also Constantine was really helpful and nothing was an issue , love this place Henry UK "

GYP SEA Saint Barth

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel, however there were no locks on the door of one of the bedrooms in our suite. The room could be accessed from the outside. The hotel is on a beautiful hilltop but, we couldn’t let our kids sleep in that room. The hotel had no way to rectify. The hotel and staff are amazing but that would be a consideration for not returning to the 3 bedroom suite. "
