Eden Rock St Barths

From your lounge chair perched on the white sand- facing the crystal clear waters of Saint-Jean Bay- you have only to climb a wooden staircase polished by the elements to reach the Eden Rock - St Barths. Located on a rocky headland overlooking the coral reefs- this little village of villas with rust-red roofs stands on the foundations of the former property of the aviator and adventurer Remy de Haenen- the first pilot to land a plane on the island back in the 1940s. Jane and David Matthews have created the modern and eclectic interiors of the themed suites including the Howard Hughes- the Fregate with its private Jacuzzi- and the Greta Garbo. An original and elegant address- perfect for soaking up the sun of St. Barts- lazing on the beach and exploring the dazzling undersea world.
