Positively gleaming after a recent multi-million dollar refurbishment, Le Guanahani has been reborn as one of the most elegant hotels in St Barths. A fabulous all-rounder of a resort, it’s a restful retreat that nevertheless offers plenty of active pursuits and a host of child-friendly facilities, making it a great choice for spa lovers, watersports enthusiasts and families.

Le Guanahani is the largest resort on St Barths, though with just 67 rooms and suites it’s still somewhat petite. The accommodation is housed within colourful cottages and the Luis Pons-designed interiors bring a bright and contemporary twist to the classic colonial style. All rooms have air-conditioning, a flat screen TV with movies on demand, iPod docking station, complimentary WiFi, mini bar and a private terrace; some also offer a private pool. Junior and One Bedroom Suites provide more space and there is also a collection of individually decorated Signature Suites, offering two or three bedrooms and exclusive extras such as welcome drinks and snacks, an unpacking service and a complimentary 30 minute hydrojet or balneo treatment at the spa.
The hotel’s main restaurant, Indigo, is situated by the pool and overlooks the beach at Grand Cul-de-Sac; breakfast and à la carte lunch are served daily, as well as dinner on selected nights, with an emphasis on fresh seafood and grilled dishes. The restaurant’s barefoot little brother, Indigo on the Beach, offers the same excellent menu in a more relaxed setting, and there is also a lovely beach bar surrounded by thatched palapas. The elegant, candlelit Bartolomeo is open for dinner only, with a sophisticated menu that draws on both Caribbean and Mediterranean influences.
Choose between the resort’s two swimming pools or the two beaches where you’ll find a range of complimentary non-motorised watersports including windsurfing, paddle boarding, kayaking and snorkelling; kitesurfing, scuba diving, windsurfing and submarine tours are also available at an additional charge. There is a fitness centre, floodlit tennis courts, various hiking trails and the wonderful Spa by Clarins which includes an adult only swimming pool, steam room and hair salon. Classes on offer range from yoga and Pilates to zumba and stand up paddle fitness, which is a new one for us! The kids ’ club (for ages 2-6 yrs) and junior club (for ages 6-12 yrs) are complimentary and provide a host of fun activities, while babysitting can be arranged at an additional charge.
The hotel will be closed between 26 August - 20 October.

Le Guanahani celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2016 and the celebrations coincided with the completion of a four year, $40 million refurbishment - in our humble opinion, it’s been money well spent!
The individually decorated Signature Suites offer something rather special, and we particularly like the Marigot and Wellness Suites which both enjoy direct access to the spa
For something really different, Le Guanahani offers a unique ‘Cook Your Catch’ programme where you can head out with local fishermen to catch your own fish which the chefs will then expertly prepare for your dinner that evening
