Some Best Resorts To Stay When In The Island Of St Barths

Staying in beautiful Saint Barthélemy (St. Barths) is expensive. Most resorts are boutique events for the exceedingly rich, including celebrities. One can find good deals. Additionally, many believe that white-sand beaches with lovely blue lagoons for swimming are worth the price.

The resorts reflect the island’s French sophistication and Caribbean charm, with no high-rise buildings or massive all-inclusive complexes. Instead, expect smaller resorts with solitude, luxury, and dedicated service. Many St. Barth’s resorts serve fine French cuisine.

Although romantic, St. Barths is also a family-friendly vacation destination, with practically all properties servicing couples and children. It is also dog-friendlier than other Caribbean islands, with most properties permitting pets.
