St-Barth: Cheval Blanc
French Design Meets Caribbean Rhythm
Cheval Blanc St-Barth sits on Flamands Bay, widely considered one of the island's finest stretches of sand, with 61 rooms, suites, and villas tucked into lush gardens or set up for panoramic sea views. French designer Jacques Grange brought a fresh Caribbean flair to every Ocean and Beach Room and Suite, blending Parisian polish with an island sensibility that never feels forced.
Dining moves at its own pace: La Case serves locally inspired cuisine built around the island's carefree rhythm, while La Cabane offers something more relaxed just steps from the water. The Cheval Blanc Spa rounds things out with Guerlain rituals found nowhere else in the Caribbean, giving guests a genuine reason to slow down between beach days.
