Hôtel Manapany Cottages

Frommer's Review

This resort climbs a steep, well-landscaped hillside on the northwestern side of the island, a 10-minute taxi ride north of the airport. This is one of the most stylish hotels on St. Barts, although not in the league of Carl Gustaf or Sofitel Christopher . It's small, intimate, and accommodating; the name, translated from Malagese, means "small paradise." The place was designed as a minivillage of gingerbread-trimmed Antillean cottages set either on a steeply sloping hillside or beside the water. The rambling verandas and open-sided living rooms allow you to enjoy the trade winds, while the bedrooms have air-conditioning in case it gets too hot. The furnishings include both white rattan and Caribbean colonial pieces carved from mahogany and imported from the Dominican Republic. Mosquito netting covers most of the four-poster beds for a romantic touch. Rooms come with large-screen TVs with in-house videos, and kitchenettes. Bathrooms are quite luxurious, most with tub/shower combinations.

Le Fellini serves well-prepared Italian and French food at lunch and dinner.
