Where to stay in Gustavia

St Barts is a small territory of France located in the Leeward Islands at the northeastern corner of the Caribbean Sea. 

The Gustavia Lighthouse is located on a hill at the historic Fort Gustave overlooking Gustavia harbor on the west side of the island. The island has an identity crisis and can be called St.-Barthélemy, St. Barths, or St. Barts depending on who you are talking to and how fancy they are. 

It caters to a well-heeled clientele and the marina is jam packed with fabulous Yachts.

"We loved this hotel, however there were no locks on the door of one of the bedrooms in our suite. The room could be accessed from the outside. The hotel is on a beautiful hilltop but, we couldn’t let our kids sleep in that room. The hotel had no way to rectify. The hotel and staff are amazing but ..."

We loved Gustavia and we were lucky to be able to rebook at Villa Marie which is a lovely property with excellent service and staff - unless you want to scramble to find accommodations at the last minute I would not recommend this property.
