I only write reviews for places that I find extraordinary.
My hope is that you will all ignore this review totally, and let me alone have Rudy’s place in St. Barth. But that would not be fair to Rudy – so here goes:
On-line the apartment is called the Unique Style Loft- but really- it’s Rudy’s place.
He has taken care to install top-of-the-line floors/counters/appliances and beautifully done construction.
It is a small space, a maximum of three can stay there comfortably-but perfectly appointed.
There is real craftmanship at play here—and the space is well used. It is clean. It is efficient.
Outside, the patio overlooks Gustavia harbor, and it is stunning. We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the patio when we were home. And the view was an excellent reason to stay home! But why stay home when you are three blocks from the famous Shell Beach.
Walk on over to Shell Beach with the snorkel gear Rudy provides and WOWSA see the gorgeous fish feet from the shore. It is a little shocking how close you are to these magnificent effervescent little sea creatures of every imaginable color.
For that matter, you can walk anywhere you like around the harbor- great restaurants, great shopping-pick your poison!
But aside from reasonable priced, beautifully, and thoughtfully constructed apartment, next to a beach teaming with swimming works of art and superior food and shopping—there is genuine kindness from the host.
