Our sustainable commitments in action
Behind this certification lies a philosophy lived every day by our team:
- prioritizing local materials to reduce our carbon footprint,
- working hand in hand with Caribbean artisans and farmers,
- creating cuisine that highlights fresh, ethical products,
- cultivating endemic plants in our gardens to preserve biodiversity,
- innovating to reduce energy and water use,
- encouraging our guests to adopt simple, responsible practices.
A stay at our hotel or in one of our Beach Houses is not only a refined luxury experience – it is also a way of contributing to the preservation of Saint-Barthélemy for future generations.
Authentic luxury recognized by guests and experts
While Green Globe represents the structural recognition of our efforts, our guests themselves confirm the impact of our philosophy. In 2025, Gyp Sea St Barth was honored with the Traveler’s Choice Award from Tripadvisor, which distinguishes the top 10% of hotels and restaurants worldwide.
This award, based solely on traveler reviews, reflects the trust, satisfaction, and emotions of our guests. It demonstrates that sustainable luxury is not a limitation but an added value to the guest experience: a stay where everything is designed for elegance, comfort, and environmental consciousness.
In addition, the AAA Diamond Rating, awarded after anonymous professional inspections, further validates the quality of our hospitality against the most rigorous North American standards. This recognition illustrates that our sustainable commitments are never at odds with service or refinement – they are, in fact, essential to it.
