Le Sereno

We were three couples so we rented one of the hotel's private villas. The check in was very easy and the young friendly staff was eager to help. The property , located on a lagoon was very serene. Our villa was spread out into two buildings. One building had a master suite and the living / dinning rooms and the kitchen. The other building had the two other bedrooms. The downside is if it is raining, those in the other building will get wet coming to the main living area . We also had our own plunge pool which was very nice. The views from the villa were breathtaking. We had our own butler who prepared breakfast in the villa every morning and arranged everything we needed, including a massage therapist to come to the villa . Overall we had a wonderful time. A couple of the drawback are the beach. It is small and there is limited seating by the beach. Another draw back is that the hotel is far from many restaurants that we wanted to go. However if you are someone who want a couple of days of tranquility and get away from it all and relax, then I highly recommend this hotel. I give it my GoldnAdvice seal of approval.

Could not have had a better trip. Our room was stunning, and the views were even better. Literally the only note I have is that the couch on our patio faces back towards the beach, and facing it the other way provides a better view (so we just swapped it while we were there). The sheets and bedding were luxurious. The bathrobe was D. Porthault and maybe a little starchy for my taste, but makes sense for a beach spot. The entire staff was insanely attentive and accommodating. I have a gluten sensitivity, and was always provided alternative options for bread and pasta (and the bread was actually very good!) The location was about 15 minutes from the airport, and 20 minutes from Gustavia. We ended up renting a car a few days in since we were spending €100 round trip any time we left the hotel. Obviously you expect this a bit in SB, but we really wanted to explore the island, and went into town almost every night for dinner, so it just gave us more flexibility. The massages were also fabulous. There is not a full spa facility (that I saw) - meaning lockers, steam/sauna etc - but the treatment room was lovely, and I genuinely had one of the best massages of my life. The only snafu - on the day we were leaving, WINAIR cancelled all flights due to low wind and no one from the airline contacted us. We were actually on our way to the airport when the concierge sent us a message on WhatsApp to let us know they were canceling flights. They then went on to help us with options and we eventually got off the island that day on a private helicopter. Overall, it was a truly fabulous week, and we can't wait to go back.

What a great visit to St Barths! Le Sereno was perfect! The resort was exactly as described and the staff was attentive to our every need and then some!! Our room was private and beyond comfortable and the view was beyond words!!! I highly recommend Le Sereno in St Barhs!

I hate leaving a bad review, but I do want to let others know before booking- the staff was lovely, the food was just ok ( we did love our breakfasts each morning ) , but the thing that bothered me the most was the wind - it seemed like the location of the hotel was in a super windy spot ( its right where the kite surfers are) -If this is your honeymoon - I would definitely check around- we also had an issue with the seaweed washing up on the beach ( there were literally tractors the first 3 days of our vacation from 9 am to 1pm taking the seaweed away - the noise was quite awful ) - we walked over to the Rosewood for drinks which is right next door- next time we go to the island I think we will try there. Le Sereno is quiet ( when there aren't tractors taking the seaweed away which I was told only happens a few times a year ) so I can see why honeymooners would like this place however I will not be recommending this place to friends who are visiting the island. It was a nice trip but I do think there are much lovelier places to stay on the island.

We just came back from St Barts , we stayed at La Sereno for a second time , the hotel is so cozy and luxurious , we felt pampered by the whole staff , it is the best kept secret place on the island, charming and romantic , No wonder they are part of the leading Hotel of the world, Each time we stay there my wife and I agree to come back to teh same spot on a yearly basis, Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing vacation , thank you La Sereno and you beautiful courteous staff . 😍 We highly recommended the best of the best !
