Airelles is expanding its portfolio with the opening of Airelles Le Guanahani, Saint-Barthélemy, marking the luxury hospitality group’s arrival in the Caribbean.
Located at the tip of a private peninsula overlooking Turtle Island, the property sits between Grand Cul-de-Sac Lagoon and Maréchal Bay.
The seven-hectare estate includes two beaches and is located within a protected nature reserve.
“We are delighted to continue our journey and discover new horizons with the opening of Airelles Le Guanahani, Saint-Barthélemy”, says Anne-Laure Ollagnon, CEO of Airelles. “This tenth Maison will add an exceptional destination to our collection and mark an important moment for the brand. Airelles’ generosity and art of hosting blend with a Caribbean island spirit to offer guests exceptional experiences.”
The resort comprises 66 rooms and suites, including 29 rooms, 28 suites and nine signature suites.
Twenty of the accommodation options include private swimming pools, with the rooms and suites arranged across individual Caribbean-style villas and opening onto terraces and gardens overlooking the lagoon.
Food and beverage will include La Table du Guanahani, serving breakfast and lunch alongside an à la carte evening menu.
The Grill will introduce a programme of pop-up events led by resident chefs.
Three bars will operate across the property, comprising The Pelican Bar beside the beach, The Library within the lobby and The Pool Bar.
Facilities will also include an infinity pool overlooking Grand Cul-de-Sac Lagoon and a separate adults-only pool within the spa.
The Airelles Spa x LBA, developed with Laboratoires Botanique Avancée, will introduce the group’s wellness offering to Saint-Barthélemy, with treatments and rituals centred around cellular regeneration.
Water sports and other activities will be available through the Beach Club.
The resort will also provide dedicated facilities for younger guests, including Turtle Camp for children and The Spot for teenagers.
Airelles Le Guanahani will become the tenth Maison within the Airelles portfolio as the group continues its development into international resort destinations.
