If stairs are a concern, clarify the access route to your proposed accommodation before booking, so the hillside setting suits your needs.

Cheval Blanc St-Barth sits on Flamands Beach, with rooms in tropical gardens and others higher above the bay. La Cabane, the pools and the shore occupy the same Maison. Accommodation ranges from a garden terrace for two to a five-bedroom residence, so the grounds change character between the sand and the slope above it.
The hillside room looks over the hotel’s tropical gardens. A private terrace sits among the greenery, with soft light filling the interiors. Bold patterns mix with rattan chairs, wooden finishes and light cotton fabrics.
The bathroom has a rain shower, with Tropical Chic toiletries supplied. Some rooms share a common entrance or have a connecting door, so the way they link to nearby rooms varies.

From the beachfront side of the Maison, the water is close to La Cabane and the Tiki Bar. Gardens and paths pass the spa and accommodation set back from the sand; some rooms face planting, others look across the Caribbean. The change in elevation is visible in the room range, from garden bungalows to hillside and ocean-facing suites.
A walk arranged with the Maison's Master Gardener introduces island plants and flowers and reaches the vegetable garden. Land tortoises live on the grounds, though an encounter is not guaranteed.
Several venues are accessible to people with reduced mobility, and a beach wheelchair is available. The Maison offers arrival and departure transfers from the airport and Gustavia harbour, both a few minutes away by car. These services should be arranged for the particular journey, and a guest with route needs should establish the room, restaurant and beach details before arrival.
A Tropical Room sleeps two and has its own terrace in the gardens. The Ocean Suite also sleeps two; its airy terrace has sun loungers, and the outlook turns towards the sea. A Garden Bungalow with Pool is set in the heart of the gardens, with one bedroom, a garden terrace and its own pool.
The two-bedroom Garden Suite accommodates four and has a private pool. A Beach House of the same capacity sits by the shore with a private hot tub. The two-bedroom Tropical Suite, also for four, has an outdoor lounge area. A two-bedroom Bungalow in the range offers a spacious living room for four guests.
Villa de France has five bedrooms, a private pool and space for ten guests. The Maison places the villa at the heart of the property, within the same grounds as its suites and shared facilities.
The Cheval Blanc Spa has five treatment rooms, including one designed for two guests. Its garden treatment pavilion is a separate setting for Guerlain rituals, including four-hand massages for two and facials for one. Guerlain products also have their own boutique at the spa.
Fitness has a studio of its own, while yoga is offered in a tropical pavilion among the gardens.
Langosteria serves seafood-led cooking with an Italian accent in the evening. La Cabane stands beside Flamands Beach for lunch, near the sand and the Tiki Bar's cocktails. The Maison also offers a bar-based mocktail class: guests blend juices, syrups and fresh aromatics with guidance from its barmen.
Carte Blanche can arrange a picnic, a lunch by the sea or a dinner cruise outside the usual restaurant setting. Le Kiosque makes pastries and viennoiseries for guests to enjoy at home. In the Maison's kitchen, arranged cooking and pastry classes give another view of that work, from preparing fresh pasta with local produce to shaping sweet treats alongside the chefs.
The bakery has a separate hands-on experience: guests can shape bread with the baker and learn how kneading, fermentation and baking change the dough. It is a workshop to arrange with the Maison, distinct from collecting finished viennoiseries at Le Kiosque.
The Alchemists arrange outings by yacht, sailing boat or catamaran. A route can cross between the island's bays, with an anchorage near Gouverneur Beach and a picnic. A massage on the water is another possibility described for a boat outing.
On land, a local guide can lead a drive towards the island's viewpoints. Jet skiing and quad biking are among the other activities described for travellers seeking more movement. Underwater, recommended dive professionals take guests among coral and fish; wreck sites are presented for experienced divers. Boat and dive plans still depend on conditions and the arrangements made with the operator.
After a sea-fishing outing, the Maison's culinary team can prepare a guest's catch. Fishing and the meal are arranged as part of the same trip.
Gustavia is the island's harbour town, with shops and restaurants a few minutes away from Flamands by car. A day spent among the Maison's gardens and shore can end there, but the hotel remains a beach address rather than a room in the town.
Le Carrousel gives children the stories of Aru and Naïa, two young Arawak characters, through play and discovery inspired by the island. The Maison's family Alchemists also design activities that change with the season. A family photographer can be arranged for portraits on the beach, in the garden or in the privacy of a room. Families should confirm the programme and age suitability for the dates of their stay.
For younger guests, the Maison has child-sized flip-flops, slippers and bathrobes, as well as French baby equipment. Made-to-measure baby purées and children's menus are part of the family service.
A cot, changing table, highchair, baby tableware and bath toys can be prepared on request before a family's arrival.
Couples can arrange a wedding or vow renewal on the beach, in the tropical gardens or beside the main pool, with the horizon behind them. Floral arrangements, a meal and entertainment can be planned with the Maison's event team. For a gathering of friends or a family celebration, exclusive use of the whole property is another possibility to discuss.
Cheval Blanc St-Barth best suits travellers who care about the design they return to after a day outside. Jacques Grange gave the interiors the character of a seaside home, with handcrafted artisan furniture, natural materials and unusual objects in the rooms. Jean-Michel Othoniel's mobile, The Constellation of Pegasus, hangs in coloured glass pearls.
Blush pink extends from linens to the Artisans' attire and the Maison's amenities. Thierry Wasser, Guerlain's head perfumer, created the Tropical Chic scent with ylang-ylang, pineapple, white flowers and sandalwood. It reaches beyond a bottle: the aroma is present in candles, amenities and spa products.
The Maison's swimming pools offer another way to spend time in the water, adding choice to a stay on Flamands Beach.
La Cabane keeps lunch beside Flamands Bay, so you can enjoy a meal with sea views without leaving the hotel's beach setting.
Guerlain treatments and a garden pavilion give the spa a distinctive setting for an appointment, adding a different experience to your beach days.
