ST. BARTS

Finally I got to check out the infamous island of St. Barts!  For years I've heard about this place, it's super exclusive, beautiful, and high class.  I must say, it did not disappoint.  I was lucky enough to go with a guy I was dating at the time, who's been a few times.  He knew the lay of the land, and where cool restaurants and beaches were.

We stayed in this cute place in the hills with an amazing view of St. Jean and Eden Rock (above).  We had dinner at Eden Rock the first night and it was very romantic.  The weather was perfect; we sat outside on a deck overlooking the ocean while my hair and silk dress blew in the wind.  The food was great, too.  We shared scallops with truffle gnocchi and a veal chop with mushrooms.  What an amazing experience on day 1 in St. Barts!  

Day 2 we drove around for a little bit.  We rented a mini VW convertible which was super fun. Most of the cars on the island are small, and the way the roads whip and turn you feel like you're in a video game!  We checked out some viewpoints then came home and made breakfast.  

We headed back out to check out Nikki Beach.  This place was gorgeous, a white themed classy beach club kissed by turquoise water.  The vibe here is high caliber, you're surrounded by people living life to the fullest! 

Saturday night we checked out Bagatelle.  There's one in NYC, so if you know Bagatelle you know exactly what you're getting into, FUN!  

The next morning we cooked breakfast again.  It's so nice to sleep in, make coffee, and have your boyfriend cook you breakfast, again.  :)

You know how beach vacations go.  They're quite chill.  We really had no agenda other than to keep checking out the island, drive around, have a drink, lay out, beach it, drink again, repeat.  Oh yeah, and eat!  So that's what we did.  

We had dinner at Le Ti the last night.  That place is sexy!  They do a burlesque show almost every hour!  The vibe is sexy, sexy people, great ambiance, great food.  Definitely a must see in St. Barts!

The flight out was just as beautiful as the experience.  I sure hope I can get back to St. Barts one day.  :)
