My wife, 14 month old baby and I stayed 5 nights at the Carl Gustaf. We were afraid it might be difficult because it's on a hill and there are steps to get anywhere. Instead, everything was easy because the staff was so lovely - from the manager, Alex, who came to pick us up, to the front desk staff (especially Albane), to the charming restaurant staff. All made us feel very welcome and were incredibly helpful in every respect, particularly with the baby, who they fawned over. We loved the location in Gustavia as it was both a short walk into town, a nice place to stroll in the evening, looking at the boutiques and getting a drink by the harbor, and five minutes to Shell Beach which we ended up liking far more than we thought we would. The Do- Brazil restaurant there is a hoot, and the crowd is a lot of fun. I also have to mention their Spa, where I received some of the best treatments I have ever had in a spa - ask for Jessie - her massage, facial and foot reflexology were truly special (we went on a spa package in which my wife and I had treatments included - well worth it!). A bientot, Carl Gustaf... We can't wait to go back.
