St. Barths

There were a lot of buildings in St. Bartholemey that looked quite well-preserved, though a few were probably just faux-antique facades. The island was once part of Sweden, and strange small cultural relics here and there are reminders of such.

We spent a couple nights at 'Le Select,' the inspiration for Jimmy Buffet's song Cheeseburger in Paradise. He was also once the part-owner of this late-night burger patio. A very cute little place to hang out in the heart of Gustavia.

The balcony at Sunset hotel is perfect for reading and enjoying the view over their lovely breakfast. Due to their customer service and organization, however, I wouldn't recommend the place.
