Many consider Hôtel Guanahani & Spa one of the premiere resorts of the Caribbean and it’s easy to see why. The island of St Barts is described as ‘a pearl nestling in the sea’ and the resort is set on a private 16 acre peninsular of lush tropical gardens with two sparkling white sand beaches.
68 brightly coloured bungalow-style suites and rooms are scattered amongst bougainvillea, hibiscus and coconut palms. All have terraces and private gardens, and many have their own pool.
The open-air Guanahani Spa nestles serenely at its heart. In keeping with the island’s French heritage and the resorts tropical French design style, the spa offers all the best Clarins treatments, including the Pro-Active body and face therapies. An excellent massage menu reflects techniques from around the world, and Frederic Fekkai hair care is also available at the specially designed salon. There are eight treatment rooms, a hammam ritual bath, a herbal tea room, a well-equipped gym and a lap-pool. There is also a magnificent freshwater pool close to the beach with a large central Jacuzzi. More active guests can play tennis or take advantage of the various water sports on offer including exploration of the nearby coral reef with the resorts own diving school.
