BVI Private Island &
Iconic Saint-Barth

Measuring a mere 10 kilometers long and four wide, Saint-Barthélemy could have remained a hidden pearl in the Caribbean. But when David Rockefeller built a retreat here in 1957, followed by JFK in the 1960s, this exquisite island quietly became a secret haven for the world’s elite. Arriving by sea, red-tiled roofs and lush palm-fringed hills frame Gustavia’s harbor, where yachts drift beside sailboats in serene harmony. The capital exudes the charm of Saint-Tropez, yet with a Caribbean twist. Whether you are leisurely browsing luxury boutiques and emerging designer stores, or strolling to the Place de la Rétrocession, in flip-flops or in heels, iconic St. Barth offers a blissful blend of effortless beauty, sun-drenched scenery, and unforgettable style.

Tucked into the northeastern curve of Virgin Gorda lies a secluded enclave where lavish luxury lives in harmony with resplendent nature. On this private and exclusive estate, the beach, the sea, the surrounding landscape, and the cuisine come together in perfect harmony, turning each moment into a precious gift. Accessible only by boat, this hidden retreat is the Caribbean at its most refined: untouched and natural, yet unmistakably curated. Gentle breezes carry the scent of sea salt and sun-warmed stone as you arrive at a destination not marked on every map—nor meant to be. In this rare and discreet haven, where serenity and sophistication reign, happiness exists in its purest form.

Legend has it that in 1648, the French and the Dutch divided the island now known as Saint Martin and Sint Maarten, by scurrying off in opposite directions from a central point, claiming terrain as they walked. Spend a delightful day surveying the result as you explore Marigot, capital of the northern French half, brimming with colonial houses and bustling markets offering Creole charm and irresistible codfish fritters. Make your way up to the ruins of Fort Louis for majestic bay views and a peek at Anguilla out on the horizon. Further north, the tiny, traditional lolo restaurants of Grand Case dish out authentic fare and convivial spirit. While down on the Dutch side, casinos and duty-free bring a different kind of vibrancy to the island spirit, as do the white sands and lazy turquoise waves of Mullet Bay.
