Rosewood Le Guanahani

Retreat to a little corner of St Barts heaven, on a peninsula between the golden shores of Marigot Bay and Grand Cul-de-Sac. Rosewood Le Guanahani nestles against luscious green hills, stretching out onto a tombolo of soft sand flanked by clement Caribbean waters.

This family-friendly, world-class resort accommodates guests across 66 rooms and suites, including 10 individualised Signature Suites which promise more privacy and living space. Interiors are light and sophisticated, with subtle Caribbean influences throughout, plus occasional dashes of colour – from sunshine yellow to nautical navy. Expect all modern conveniences, as well as excellent bay and garden views – best enjoyed from your private, furnished terrace.

When you aren’t sunning yourself on the two private beaches, the facilities at Rosewood Le Guanahani offer diverting alternatives. Treat yourself to some wellness therapy at the spa, sports therapy at the fitness centre and tennis courts, or retail therapy at the pop-up Parisian boutique. At the restaurant, dine on cuisine that reflects St Barts’ blend of French and Caribbean traditions, or take advantage of the 24-hour in-room dining option. There is a babysitting service and a children’s club for when you want some ‘me’ time.

From this picturesque St Barts base, you can easily venture out on land and sea adventures, facilitated by the hotel’s concierge team. Head out on hiking excursions, island hop, go scuba diving, or select from a range of other water sports.
