Hotel Le Toiny St. Barths

Cacti and rare Gaïac trees cover the hillside outside, which tells you immediately that this small luxury resort sits on the island's quiet, undeveloped southeast side rather than anywhere near the action. Twenty-two villas with private pools dot the slope above Anse de Toiny, the interiors running to bleached wood floors, fine linens, and a neutral coastal palette overseen by London designer Lady Bee Osborn. The service is so discreet that your famous neighbor stays a rumor.
