Karibuni Boutique Hotel

Cul-de-Sac, facing Pinel Island, French side of Saint Martin

Suites with private pools facing Pinel Island

Karibuni Boutique Hotel is an intimate address set on the hillside above Cul-de-Sac, facing Pinel Island and the Tintamarre bay. The house stands out with its panoramic view over the turquoise waters of the protected reserves, its tropical garden, and a hands-on personalized service, in a Caribbean hideaway spirit.

For accommodation, the boutique hotel offers 6 suites in three categories: Deluxe Sea View with shared pool access, Exclusive with a private hot tub on the terrace, and Premium with a private pool facing the sea. All feature a clean design in wood, linen and polished concrete, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, sea-view terrace and lounge corner. The estate also hosts 2 beachfront villas for exclusive rentals: Villa Kijani with 3 bedrooms and Villa Baltazar with 5 bedrooms and a private dock.

Stays include breakfast served in the room on the sea-view terrace, access to the shared pool, concierge service, in-suite massages and yoga sessions. The signature feature is the free private shuttle dropping guests at Pinel Island beach and at the Karibuni Restaurant, the family's award-winning beach restaurant with tables right on the sand and fresh seafood.

The location is ideal to combine castaway vibes, snorkeling around Pinel and Tintamarre (listed nature reserves), boat trips and Grand Case fine-dining 15 minutes away by car. It is one of the few addresses on the island where you can stay with a private pool and direct access to a beach restaurant on a small island.
