Reviews:
The most glamorous hotel in Gustavia rises above the town's
harbor from a steep hillside.
Each state-of-the-art unit is in one of a dozen pink or green,
red-roofed villas whose facilities include a private kitchenette,
two phones, a fax machine, a stereo system, a private terrace,
a private plunge pool, two TVs, and comfortably plush rattan
furniture.
Access to each building is via a central staircase, which tests
the stamina of even the most active guests. The wood-frame units
are angled for maximum views of the boats bobbing far below
in the bay and panoramic sunsets. Bedrooms aren't as large as
might be expected at such prices, but they are exceedingly well
furnished, especially suites nos. 30 through 33. You'll walk
across Italian marble floors under a pitched ceiling to reach
your luxurious bed fitted with elegant fabrics.
Bathrooms are also well equipped with mosaic-clad showers (no
tubs) and makeup mirrors. Beach facilities are within a 10-minute
walk. The mood is French, not unlike what you'd find on the
coast of Provence.
The cuisine is French and Creole. Often a well-known chef from
Paris appears in winter.
