The setting is unparalleled and the food, service, and design are top of the top. This place is not cheap, but it’s one of the rare hotels that is absolutely worth it. It’s a pretty diverse crowd in some ways, but the common denominator, to tell it straight, is money. Sure, you could have a delightful breakfast by your private pool, but the people-watching here is too good-you’d be missing an opportunity if you stayed in. When it comes to the food, rockstar chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten is in charge of the menu at the main restaurant, and the resort’s breakfast spread is insane in scope and quality don’t miss it. The rooms are lovely and elegant, with a subtle Carib-meets-nautical vibe, at once bright and airy. There’s a diving platform a little ways out, and you can take out rafts and paddle around the point and there's a reef if you want to snorkel.
The hotel is almost entirely surrounded by calm, gin-bottle blue water that’s heavenly for a swim.
It’s the type of place that, just being there, makes you feel like the most glam, sun-kissed version of yourself. It’s just so perfect-so chic, so glamorous, but in this easy, island-appropriate way. Barts, but even after having been on island for days, I think I squealed when I pulled into Eden Rock. You can become a little numb to beauty in St.
