Heaven on St. Bart’s: Le Toiny Offers Redesigned Rooms and Good Eats
It’s not just for the panoramic views that celebs book Le Toiny. Set on a hilltop overlooking the rolling green of the island and the azure sea beyond, this chic Caribbean hideaway is adored for its restaurant, where an on-site greenhouse provides organic veggies for the table. (This is the only greenhouse of its kind on the island, situated on a former pineapple field, where some 20 different vegetable varieties are grown.) Don’t miss a meal at Restaurant Le Gaïac; Chef Stephane Mazieres is a culinary artist. Book the “3 Plus 1″ offer, available until the end of August, and you’ll get 4 nights for the price of 3 in a villa (insanely beautiful private plunge pool included). Suites just got a major redo this year: new furniture, fabrics, high-tech gadgetry, hammocks and more….
Le Toiny is the hotel of St Barths. With a more discrete location, this property is extreme luxury. A romantic dinner is a must. The perfect honeymoon destination.
