Petite and Chic

Designed by Gilles & Bossier, Hotel Barrière Le Carl Gustaf is a tropical paradise made up of 23 bespoke rooms, each with their own sun-splashed terraces and private plunge pools. Book the Royal Loft for the best views over the Caribbean Sea and Gustavia harbor, dotted with yachts.

Just two years after Hurricane Irma roared in, the fall opening of this little luxe hotel, alongside the reopening of the iconic Eden Rock, makes clear that the Caribbean’s toniest island is back. Interestingly, Le Carl Gustaf is in the middle of Gustavia, St. Barts pretty capital—filled with palm-lined cobblestone streets and a slew of high-end restaurants and boutiques—rather than on one of its beaches.
