A Caribbean destination may not be the very first thing you imagine when thinking of a Yuletide escapade, but even if the white snow turns into white sand, and the pines into palm trees, the merry-ness remains the same.

Join us in what we hope will be a very pleasant reading, as we take you through everything you may be able to enjoy while staying in St. Barth this December.

A Caribbean Christmas tale

THE AMBIANCE

Imagine a Caribbean Christmas, what do you see? Is the white snow actually white sand? Does a warm chocolate cup shift into a fruity, tropical drink? Or perhaps the colorful ornaments become shells and sea snails?

Regardless of the decoration, the festive spirit remains the same, and throughout the island you will find different Christmas markets that follow tradition to a T… but with a creative coast-life twist. The weather may be different, but soon you will find that the spirit of joyfulness is all the same.

THE PRESENTS

Since we were kids, we most likely associate this time of the year with countless presents coming and going. Since Christmas is the festivity where we get together once again and remind each other of our affection, it is the perfect opportunity to show your loved ones that you’ve been thinking of them by giving them that little something you know they will really, really like.

St. Barth is a fashionable island, with so many different shops –from designer clothing and jewelry, to home decor and art–, that every single one of you will most certainly have your own “oh, this is perfect!” moment when gift-fishing.

THE DINNER

There are specific delicious foods and exclusive flavors that define this time of the year. If we want to stay simple, we may think of hot chocolate with marshmallows, accompanied by some home-baked gingerbread cookies. On the other hand, if we want to go all out, we could probably picture a full course dinner, with a big, juicy turkey and some vegetables, topped with a delicious Punch.

Your Caribbean Christmas can, of course, feature a full seasonal menu custom-made for you. Our chefs may cook for you in your villa’s very own kitchen, if you so decide. Or, if the idea of dining out sounds more appealing to you, we have our partner restaurant Amis, that is preparing a full on surprise Restaurant Christmas dinner.

Regardless of what you choose, a delicious dinner will not be scarce this Christmas.

THE AFTERMATH

Finally, after all the partying has been done, you will still find yourself in a beach-y paradise! Where the soft sand and wavy, sparkling ocean are just a short walk away.

Relief yourself of the previous year stress and catch up with the surrounding calmness, Whether you decide to do so by the shoreline, feeling the sun kiss your skin, or in an all out spa, be reassured that you will find exactly what you need in St. Barth.
