One of the many highlights of St. Barths is that it’s not over developed, which is one of the biggest reasons why people come back over and over… and over again. The result of ‘underdevelopment’ is quaint hotels rather than ultra inclusive resorts, fantastic local restaurants rather than standard hotel food and a lively nightlife filled with music and dancing rather than casinos. You will still find great shops here whether it’s a roadside stand or boutiques and shopping centers. Plus, it a duty free port, which only adds to the shopping experience. If you’re looking for glitter, St. Barths may not be your glass of wine, but if you want a real island getaway flowing with culture, it’s exactly what you’re looking for.
Although one of the smallest islands in the Caribbean, it still has a great selection of beaches – 14 to be exact. And every one of them has picture perfect white sand. Because of its French background, don’t be too surprised at the topless bathers. Be very surprised at any nude ones… nudity on the beaches is a big no no. The island itself is filled with exotic species rather than lush trees.
Do as the French and grab a bottle of wine, some delicious cheese and bread. Sit on a beach and enjoy the view. Let HotelsbyCity take you to St. Barths today.
