Day 1: Arrive in St. Barth's

Nikki Beach St. Barth

For dinner, savor the delights of Bonito, renowned for its exceptional ceviches and seafood dishes, attracting a casually chic crowd. Cap off the night with a visit to Le Yacht Club for a vibrant nightlife experience. 
 

Day 2: Coastal Escapes and Shopping Delights

BEACH HOPPING

  • Embark on a beach exploration by arranging for your rental car to be delivered to your hotel. Pack essentials like an umbrella and towels as you explore the picturesque beaches of the island. Make a stop at La Petite Colombe for freshly-baked croissants. Begin your day with a refreshing swim at Gouverneur in the morning before the sun becomes too intense. If you fancy sunbathing au naturel, Saline is the ideal spot.

LUNCH HOUR

  • For a leisurely lunch and relaxation, secure lounge chairs and a 12 pm reservation at Shellona, located on Shell Beach in Gustavia. Enjoy the excellent food and laid-back yet enjoyable atmosphere. Afterward, take a trip into town for some shopping.

 

IT’S SHOPPING TIME

  • Explore the shops in Gustavia, including Clic, a concept shop by designer Christian Celle offering home goods, art, and fashion. Discover flowy cover-ups and kimonos at Lolita Jaca, and find stylish printed dresses and beachwear at Poupette. For jewelry, visit Bijoux de la Mer and Delfina for swimwear.

 

NAP BEFORE DINNER

  • Return to your hotel for a relaxing break before dinner. Choose between Bagatelle, offering a fantastic Mediterranean menu with occasional DJ and dancing, or Tamarin for a dining experience in a beautiful garden setting. For an extravagant evening, reserve a table at Le Ti for a cabaret dinner—a must-try experience.
