I've been to St. Barths before but surprisingly had overlooked this gem of a hotel. It's right on St. Jean beach, near Eden Rock and La Plage, so right in the thick of things, yet it's surprisingly serene. I made my plans for this pre-Thanksgiving quick trip just 2 days before leaving (!) so i had to find rooms fast,... more

We stayed for 3 nights here in November 2007 and enjoyed the hotel and all that St Jean beach offers. We were upgraded to an Ocean view bungalow which appeared to be recently renovated. The entire bungalow and outdoor kitchen were done in a minimalistic white decor. Very Chic. From the hotel you can walk to the Supermarket at the... more

I was at Emeraude Plage 4 days in Dec, 2007. Located at the centre of one of the island's nicest beaches, this is a place for those who love elegance, design, silence and peace. My studio room was comfortable and fully equipped (a fully furnished kitchenette is included), and regularly cleaned. Good supermarket at 10 minutes' walk distance should you... more

We stayed at Emeraude Plage in late June. It was our first trip to St. Barts and we will return to the island. Check in was great and the staff could not have been more helpful. We were in a garden bungalow which had a nice sized room with a king sized bed. The a/c services the bedroom only. The... more

As a female solo traveler, I felt very safe and comfortable at Hotel Emeraude Plage. I spent one night on St. Barth May 24, 2007. Emeraude Plage rooms are all bungalows. There are garden view and oceanview rooms. I stayed in an oceanview room. The hotel doesn't really have a full restaurant. The beach bar serves as the restaurant. It... more

I've just returned from a 7 night stay at Emeraude Plage in St Jean, St. Bart's. I decided on this hotel on the recommendation of a close friend. I have to say I was not dissappointed. This hotel has a lot going for it. It is a low key place with an execptionally friendly staff and great location. It was... more

We ended up in St Barths on January 31 and we decided to stay...so started making calls. Most hotels were over $1000 a night and we really got lucky with one cancellation at Emeraude and so grabbed it. We really lucked out, apparently they get booked a year in advance. I had no desire to even see other hotels and... more

St Barths is a lovely island and St Jean is a gorgeous beach with the added attraction of the airport. The Emeraude Plage has a private beach on rocks raised up above the sea and is between Edden Rock and Tom Beach. Being raised up is useful in high tide! The hep bar on the beach is fantastic - gorgeous... more

As winter starts to invade... I just can't help daydreaming about getting to St Barth again. Well, let's talk directly about the hotel (as I could just continue for pages just about paradise on earth...). I've been to Saint Barth 3 times, stayed in 3 different places. I've been to Tropical Hotel, then Filao and finally Emeraude Plage which was... more
