Cheval Blanc St-Barth Isle de France
LVMH's barefoot-luxury maison on Flamands, arguably the island's most beautiful hotel beach, with Guerlain spa.
From 1,700 € / night
Cheval Blanc occupies the finest stretch of Anse des Flamands, a long white-sand beach on the island's northwest that stays calmer and less built-up than Saint-Jean. The LVMH maison treatment means impeccable, discreet service, La Case restaurant, and a Guerlain spa. The atmosphere is quieter and more French than Eden Rock — couples over scene-seekers. Flamands village has excellent restaurants within walking distance, and Colombier's trailhead is five minutes away. This is our recommendation for honeymooners who want a hotel rather than a villa.
Best for
Honeymoons, beach perfectionists, spa lovers
