St. Barths, by Heart
My specialty — the chicest little island in the French Caribbean, planned down to the villa, the chef, and the boat.
The Island I Know Best
St. Barths is barefoot and black-tie all at once — a tiny French island where the morning is spent on an empty beach and the evening over a long, candlelit dinner in Gustavia. It's where I send travelers who want the Caribbean with a little more style, a little more privacy, and none of the fuss. After years of planning trips here, I know which villas are worth it, which beaches to have to yourself, and how to make a whole week feel completely effortless.
This is the island done the way the insiders do it — and I'll plan yours the same way.
Why It's Worth the Trip

Villas, not crowds
spectacular private homes instead of big resorts. Your own pool, your own view, your own pace.

Beaches like yours alone
Gouverneur, Saline, and Colombier: wild, beautiful, and gloriously quiet.

French flavor in the Caribbean
world-class cooking, cold rosé, and an elegance that feels more Riviera than resort.

Privacy by design
no cruise crowds, no mega-hotels. Just an easy, glamorous rhythm the in-the-know have loved for decades.
Finding Your Villa Is My Specialty
The right villa makes the trip — the view, the pool, the privacy, the staff. There are hundreds on the island, and they are not created equal. This is where I come in. I'll match you to a home that fits exactly how you want to live that week, whether that's a cliffside hideaway for two or a sprawling place with room for the whole family.
And then I build everything around it:
A private chef for the nights you'd rather not move
Boat days to the beaches and islands you can only reach by sea
The right dinner reservations, before they're gone
Your car, your transfers, and the short hop over from St. Maarten
A pre-stocked kitchen and anything else waiting when you arrive
You just show up. I'll have handled the rest.
Long Lunches, Late Dinners, Golden Hours
St. Barths lives well. Mornings are for the beach; afternoons for a long lunch with your feet in the sand; evenings for Gustavia — the harbor, the boutiques, and dinners that stretch into the night. I'll line up the tables that are impossible to get, the beach clubs worth the splurge, and the quiet local spots most visitors never find. Tell me your style and I'll build your days around it.
GETTING THERE
There's no long-haul flight directly to St. Barths — and that's part of what keeps it special. You'll arrive one of two easy ways: a roughly one-hour flight from San Juan, Puerto Rico on Tradewind, or a quick 15-minute hop from St. Maarten on Winair. Want something more private? I can arrange a charter flight, or even a private boat charter to bring you straight across. However you come, the famous landing into St-Jean is a thrill in itself — and I'll handle the connection, the timing, and the transfers so the whole journey feels seamless.
