St. Barts, French West Indies
White-sand beaches, high-end boutiques, and fine French cuisine all come together on St. Barts, where members can relax and unwind at Rosewood Le Guanahani, an Inspirato Collection hotel spanning 18 tropical acres on its own peninsula.
Or, opt for Le Sereno, named the #1 Top Resort in the Caribbean in the 2016 Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards. The sprawling Le Sereno Villa includes a private pool, three primary suites, and plenty of outdoor living spaces with sweeping ocean views.
Selective and Decidedly Chic
This ultra-exclusive celebrity hangout features the lure of white sand beaches, posh boutiques, and exquisite dining with a distinctive French flair. For all of its glitz and glamour, St. Bart's is still just a tiny island with a warm reception for its visitors. With miles of postcard-worthy shoreline, gourmet French, Creole, and Caribbean-fusion cuisine, it's easy to see why this spot is a favorite for jetsetters. The island's elegance is unsurpassed and islanders speak fluent French and English. Le Sereno was also recently chosen as the #1 Resort in the Caribbean by the Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Awards 2016.

Atop the Sea
Treat yourself to a catamaran sunset champagne trip; surveying the island and its lights from the water is a romantic way to spend the evening. If you'd rather plunge into the water, opt for snorkel gear and head to Gouverneur Beach.

Spa Day
Let Spa at Isle de France pamper you with a soothing facial featuring Intraceuticals and Natura Bissé products. Another recommended treatment is the Thai massage set in the tropical garden pavilion.

Catch a Wave
Reefer Surf Club, found at surfing beaches Anse es Cayes, Toiny, Miliou and Lorient, will equip and train you for all ocean sports. For kite surfing, hit the Dive Center on Grand Cul-de-Sac Beach for lessons from champion Enguerrand Espinassou.
