St Barts Island :: Airport Landing There’s no doubt, when you’re flying in to St Barts island, the landing is a tricky one.  The landing strip is short, and ends in the water, and on the approach, you hover precariously close to a hillside area; in fact, many people stand there and take pictures of [...]

Our island may be tiny, but some of the St Barts villas are anything but small.  And then some of them are small, but their views more than make up for it. So, in the spirit of the holiday season, and knowing that many of you are dreaming of warm weather vacations, I wanted to [...]
