Room in St. Barths: Colibri and Sucrier—the charm of home

It is often believed that a room in St. Barths must be booked at a large hotel, at rates

a bed-and-breakfast. In Grande Saline, the Maison Fleur de Lune offers two: Colibri and Sucrier,

which are undoubtedly the best way to start exploring the island without breaking the bank.

Two bedrooms, a house, a tropical garden

Colibri is the most spacious: 37 m², a king-size bed, sleeps up to three people, bright and open to

the vegetation. "Sucrier," with its two single beds, is perfect for friends traveling together or for a

the island experience.
