  • Our Island, Our Home

    Everything we do at Le Barthélemy Hotel & Spa is influenced by a deep respect and love for our island home, St. Barts. Since opening our doors in 2016, sharing its singular beauty and vibrant culture has been both our sincere pleasure and privilege.

    We know that to be part of this community is to care for this community, which is why we strive toward sustainability in every way, tackling the preservation and protection of the environment. Our philosophy supports, among other things, the associations that work for the conservation of our precious bay and its ecosystem. For instance, during the 2022 charity gala in favor of UNICEF, the rent collected for hosting the event on our land was entirely donated to two committed local associations: Coral Restoration and Island Nature Experiences.

    In addition, we’ve supported Earth Month every year. In 2022, a portion of each booking at our hotel was donated to the Environmental Territorial Agency (ATE) to help with sea turtle preservation, protection and maintenance of the Grand Cul de Sac's turtle nursery.

    We firmly believe that a greener, kinder, more human future is in store, as long as all of us put a little bit of effort into it. And at Le Barth, we have put in a lot of effort. Here’s how we’re working toward a better future right now.

      The Environmental Territorial Agency – also known as ATE – is a public establishment created back in 2013; it is widely known for notably taking over all the missions of the GRENAT association on the island, including the management of the Nature Reserve.

      At Le Barth, we have collaborated and aided the ATE by donating a portion of each booking to help with sea turtle preservation and the protection and maintenance of the Grand Cul de Sac's turtle nursery.

    Conscious Design & Reef Conservation at Le Barthelemy Hotel & Spa

    Strengthening our commitment to sustainability, our 44-room boutique hotel recently introduced a zero-waste culinary concept and workshop headed up by Chef Jérémy Czaplicki at our beachfront restaurant, Amis St. Barth, and an expanded partnership with Coral Restoration to offer interactive guided diving to rehabilitate the surrounding reef, beginning this April.

    The new initiatives build on our hotel’s conscious construction, which emphasizes an open-air, naturally-derived architecture to limit energy consumption by embracing natural-light and using solar energy, while incorporating organic and low-impact materials, such as locally hewn stone and wood, linens sourced from ethically-traced organic cotton and 60 percent (and growing) of in-room amenities sourced from ethical and environmentally-friendly labels. Le Barth ethos is centered around embracing and protecting the island’s natural flora and fauna, which is why all fertilizers, plants and soil on the property are organic, cleaning products are eco-friendly, sunblock and lotions sold on property are reef-safe, and desalination is employed for ecological water usage.

    Discover Le Barth’s #GreenVibesOnly

    Since opening in 2016, our beautiful hotel has been using and instilling a series of materials and products in order to reduce its impact and become a paragon of sustainability in St. Barts.

    • Solar Panels

    • Desalination Station

    • Organic Cotton Linens

    • Local Flora Gardens

    • Organic Repellent

    • Automatic Lights

    • Electric Vans Mercedes

    • Microfiltrated water Aquachiara

    In Room Commitment

    One of the most important decisions we made when Le Barthélemy opened its doors was for you to rest in supreme comfort on bed wear made of traceable organically grown cotton. A small detail, perhaps, but when protecting the places we love, every decision matters. Including yours. Following a thorough and honest communication with you, our valued guests, we are delighted to report that Le Barth has reduced laundry water use by 20% between 2016 and 2022.

        A Zero Waste Philosophy

        At Amis St. Barth’s we’re beyond-focused on creating a low-impact, eco-responsible gourmet experience.

        Several actions have been instituted over the past seven years, including using every bit of the ingredients, from pit to peel, to make fondos and butter, and growing our own vegetables and spices.

        • Our B. Green Team

          At Le Barth, every single one of us is deeply committed to our cause and believes a better, brighter future is in store as long as we all keep moving forward and working together to achieve it. Our B. Green Team is here to keep it all going, to be the inspiration, the helping hand, the eternal torch tasked with coming up with fresh ideas, to awaken that special something in all of us, the dormant drive to do everything in our power to help those around us, nurture and take care of the environment, and preserve our history.

          What do our collaborators think?

          Caring team members are cared for. At Le Barth, we take care of our team. It is essential that each of our collaborators feel good professionally and personally, as well-being at work drives us every day to give the best of ourselves! That's what makes them the best prepared to care for others, including our valued guests.

          Our staff’s commitment

          • Bye, bye, plastic

            Ever since our grand opening in 2016, we’ve been working towards more and more responsible practices, like providing nearby housing for our staff, and creating fun dynamics to educate and urge our collaborators in all things sustainable. One of our initiatives is a no-plastic goal for all of us here at Le Barth, to be carried out in many different instances:

            • The creation of a branded, sustainable Tote Bag for our employees to limit the use of plastic bags.
            • The implementation of LiLLii water, a 100% recyclable natural French mineral water and water dispensers for refilling.
            • The avoidance of one-use plastics overall.

            1/2

          • Employee Training

            We hire and train team members that share our values of sustainability and commitment to St. Barth, our island home.  Throughout the season, team members participate not only in traditional operations training but are invited to meet with environmental and civic associations, and all team members are encouraged to join Le Barth leadership in beach clean-ups and other activities to support our beautiful island home, like get-togethers for Coral Restoration to help restoring Grand Cul de Sac’s reefs.

The path goes on and on, and there’s always something else we can do, a bit more we can help with, and someone we can lend a hand to. It's up to us to keep striving for a better, greener, fairer and kinder future, and through the many sustainable events at Le Barth, we can all continue to contribute to something bigger than all of us – the future.

            Our Island, Our Home

            Everything we do at Le Barthélemy Hotel & Spa is influenced by a deep respect and love for our island home, St. Barts. Since opening our doors in 2016, sharing its singular beauty and vibrant culture has been both our sincere pleasure and privilege.

Our philosophy supports, among other things, the associations that work for the conservation of our precious bay and its ecosystem. For instance, during the 2022 charity gala in favor of UNICEF, the rent collected for hosting the event on our land was entirely donated to two committed local associations: Coral Restoration and Island Nature Experiences.

            Conscious Design & Reef Conservation at Le Barthelemy Hotel & Spa

            Strengthening our commitment to sustainability, our 44-room boutique hotel recently introduced a zero-waste culinary concept and workshop headed up by Chef Jérémy Czaplicki at our beachfront restaurant, Amis St. Barth, and an expanded partnership with Coral Restoration to offer interactive guided diving to rehabilitate the surrounding reef, beginning this April.

            The new initiatives build on our hotel’s conscious construction, which emphasizes an open-air, naturally-derived architecture to limit energy consumption by embracing natural-light and using solar energy, while incorporating organic and low-impact materials, such as locally hewn stone and wood, linens sourced from ethically-traced organic cotton and 60 percent (and growing) of in-room amenities sourced from ethical and environmentally-friendly labels. Le Barth ethos is centered around embracing and protecting the island’s natural flora and fauna, which is why all fertilizers, plants and soil on the property are organic, cleaning products are eco-friendly, sunblock and lotions sold on property are reef-safe, and desalination is employed for ecological water usage.

            Discover Le Barth’s #GreenVibesOnly

            Since opening in 2016, our beautiful hotel has been using and instilling a series of materials and products in order to reduce its impact and become a paragon of sustainability in St. Barts.

            • Solar Panels

            • Desalination Station

            • Organic Cotton Linens

            • Local Flora Gardens

            • Organic Repellent

            • Automatic Lights

            • Electric Vans Mercedes

            • Microfiltrated water Aquachiara

            In Room Commitment

            One of the most important decisions we made when Le Barthélemy opened its doors was for you to rest in supreme comfort on bed wear made of traceable organically grown cotton. A small detail, perhaps, but when protecting the places we love, every decision matters. Including yours. Following a thorough and honest communication with you, our valued guests, we are delighted to report that Le Barth has reduced laundry water use by 20% between 2016 and 2022.

                  At Le Barth, every single one of us is deeply committed to our cause and believes a better, brighter future is in store as long as we all keep moving forward and working together to achieve it. Our B. Green Team is here to keep it all going, to be the inspiration, the helping hand, the eternal torch tasked with coming up with fresh ideas, to awaken that special something in all of us, the dormant drive to do everything in our power to help those around us, nurture and take care of the environment, and preserve our history.

                  What do our collaborators think?

                  Caring team members are cared for. At Le Barth, we take care of our team. It is essential that each of our collaborators feel good professionally and personally, as well-being at work drives us every day to give the best of ourselves! That's what makes them the best prepared to care for others, including our valued guests.

                  Our staff’s commitment

                  • Bye, bye, plastic

                    Ever since our grand opening in 2016, we’ve been working towards more and more responsible practices, like providing nearby housing for our staff, and creating fun dynamics to educate and urge our collaborators in all things sustainable. One of our initiatives is a no-plastic goal for all of us here at Le Barth, to be carried out in many different instances:

                    • The creation of a branded, sustainable Tote Bag for our employees to limit the use of plastic bags.
                    • The implementation of LiLLii water, a 100% recyclable natural French mineral water and water dispensers for refilling.
                    • The avoidance of one-use plastics overall.

                    1/2

                  • Employee Training

                    We hire and train team members that share our values of sustainability and commitment to St. Barth, our island home.  Throughout the season, team members participate not only in traditional operations training but are invited to meet with environmental and civic associations, and all team members are encouraged to join Le Barth leadership in beach clean-ups and other activities to support our beautiful island home, like get-togethers for Coral Restoration to help restoring Grand Cul de Sac’s reefs.
