Overview

With views of a harbor on the Caribbean Sea, this posh hotel on leafy grounds is a 4-minute walk from Shell Beach and 7 minutes away by foot from Fort Karl.

Ranging from rooms to bungalows, the airy, elegantly furnished quarters feature living areas, terraces, and sea views.

A unique historic address nestled on a hillside overlooking the island, between Caribbean land and sea.

The story of a vibrant and iconic 80s hotel that is reinventing itself and writing a new page in its legendary history, enhanced by the prestigious interior design firm Gilles & Boissier.

Like any home, the intimate Le Carl Gustaf offers 21 keys to its guests. Bungalows, suites, loft, and villa.

An elegant colonial house where you’re doing more than just visiting, you’re taking endless pleasure in making yourself at home. What if that was the true meaning of luxury: becoming a regular? We invite you to put down your bags and leave your mark: welcome to your second home.

Stop off at the Carl Gustaf. The Carl Gustaf has found its spiritual home here in the unadulterated expression of Caribbean living: intense color and pure peacefulness under the Caribbean sun. There’s no right way to experience St. Barths.

Stays here are synonymous with freedom, sensations, and outlook. An opportunity to simply live each moment as it comes.

Description

There is only one pace – and it is set by you.

In St. Barths, the only time that matters is that created by the light. Situated just a stone’s throw from a white sandy beach, the Hôtel Barrière Le Carl Gustaf is the epitome of discreet luxury and well-being bathed by the warm Caribbean sun.

Named in honor of the woman who embodied French beauty: lovely, elegant, refined… at the Spa Diane Barrière the stage is set, and you’ll enjoy a haven of refined wellness for a new experience of natural, pure, and innovative treatments. Multi-sensory stimulation, personalized holistic care, or custom sculpting massage: take advantage of excellent care to soothe body and mind.

Enjoy the benefits of products from the cosmetics brand Biologique Recherche. A timeless city, a natural cove full of charms and mysteries.

Among its Case Creole houses, winding streets, fishing boats, yachts, and majestic sailboats.

You can pick up your freshly caught fish at dawn, gossip over a coffee at the Bar l’Oubli, stroll through its colorful cobbled streets, explore in a Mini Moke with your hair blowing in the wind, admire the architecture formed by its Swedish heritage, contemplate the sunset from the hilltops, let yourself be carried away by the sea breeze of the port… The promise of becoming a true local lover of this capital village.

Shellona, a Greek restaurant, and private beach club combine authenticity and generosity on Saint Barthélemy’s famous Shell Beach.

Facing the Caribbean Sea from a blend of white sand and seashells, Shellona, the hotel beach restaurant, offers a lively space far from everyday life, where the glasses stay full and the conversations flow.

It features a musical atmosphere inspired by the trends of Ibiza and Mykonos. The promise of unique laziness in the shade of the palm trees, where the hours pass so you can enjoy the most beautiful spectacle at the end of the day, the purple-orange sky at sunset.
