St Barts hotel news: I have just read a press release from a company called Exclusive Resorts that has selected St Barts hotels Le Sereno and Le Toiny in its Once in a Lifetime list.

First, when I finished reading the press release, I must say that I was not sure to understand what Exclusive Resorts did. Was it a deluxe travel agency? I looked up on their website to know more. The company defines itself as a Destination Club.

It’s a whole new concept in vacationing—combining the privacy and spaciousness of vacation homes with the services and amenities of luxury resorts. Members can:

Enjoy the ultimate in vacation variety and value. Choose from a worldwide portfolio of residences, many with access to luxury resorts, that individuals could never amass themselves.

Relax in grand residences perfectly appointed for your comfort without being tied down to a single vacation home (and its expenses and headaches).

Expect the utmost in service and amenities, including round-the-clock concierge service and privileged access to private golf courses, spas, beach clubs and more.

Exclusive Resorts pioneered this innovative approach to luxury vacation travel and we continue to be the leading luxury destination club.

The company has introduced a range of products called “Once in a Lifetime”. In the “Once in a Lifetime for Couples” line, our St Barts hotels Le Sereno and Le Toiny have been selected.

Well, I think that it is a great choice for couples with money:
– Le Sereno has recently been redesigned by French master Christian Liaigre, it sits just on the lagoon, the restaurant has simple but good food.
– As for Le Toiny, I would say that it is slightly more upscale and a bit stiffer (in a good way, service is the best on the island).
