At a glance
St. Barts’ longest-established resort, Rosewood Le Guanahani occupies an 18-acre peninsula on the quieter northeast coast, where 66 private cottages are scattered through tropical gardens above Marigot Bay.
The property’s iconic yellow and blue clapboard cottages each come with private entrances, while suite categories add private pools and sun decks. Interiors combine whitewashed wooden ceilings, wicker furnishings and muted tones with considered details that reflect the island’s French heritage throughout.
Beach House, the resort’s all-day restaurant, sits open to the ocean breeze and serves everything from French pastries at breakfast to Mediterranean small plates and freshly caught spiny lobster at dinner.
The Rosewood Sense Spa brings the brand’s signature wellness programming to the island, with treatment rooms finished in cream and natural wood, a dedicated spa pool, and a therapist-led hiking trail along the peninsula’s rocky morne.

Accommodation
Rooms
Four room categories sit across the resort’s tropical grounds, ranging from 37 to 50 square meters and each arriving with a private terrace, floor-to-ceiling French windows, and the property’s signature palette of dark hardwood floors and pastel Caribbean accents.
Views vary by location: the Ocean Bay and Ocean Bay Pool Rooms face Marigot Bay, the Ocean Cove Room looks out over Grand Cul-de-Sac Lagoon, and the Beach Room sits directly on the sand with a covered verandah and private sundeck.
The Ocean Bay Pool Room is the standout at this level, adding a private palm-flanked pool with sun loungers to the standard room footprint. The Beach Room offers the most direct connection to the water, with lagoon views from a generous 50 square meters.
Suites
Seven suite categories range from 34 to 56 square meters and introduce four-poster king beds, larger outdoor living spaces, and in several cases private pools. The Garden and Garden Pool Suites occupy a central position on the grounds, while the Ocean View and Ocean View Pool Suites are distributed across the property for wider Caribbean Sea outlooks.
The Wellness Suite is the most distinctive option at this level, positioned directly above the Sense Spa with private access and a raised terrace facing Marigot Bay.
For guests wanting a pool, the Ocean View Pool Suite and Beach Pool Suite are the two strongest choices: the former overlooks the Caribbean Sea, the latter sits right on the beach. All suites in this category include a sofa bed, making them a practical option for three guests.
Signature Suites
Nine Signature Suites offer the most expansive accommodation on the property, spanning two- and three-bedroom configurations from 85 to 183 square meters. All come with the resort’s enhanced personal services and specially designed bars, and most include private pools. Settings vary considerably: the Marechal Suite commands cliffside views over ocean and lagoon, the Lagoon Suite sits directly on the beach with a wraparound terrace, and the Serenity Suite occupies a hillside position above the water with a Balneo bathtub and private wet bar.
At the top of the range, the three-bedroom Garden House and Bougainvillea Suite sleep up to seven guests. The Bougainvillea Suite is the largest on the property at 183 square meters, with a private pool, hammock, sundeck, and expansive garden just steps from the beach.
