Nikki Beach

St-Barthélemy


Completely rebuilt after Hurricane Irma, this vaunted beach club is back with a vengeance as well as an outdoor dining area, a sushi bar and a rotisserie. Its barefoot-chic parties are legendary, especially on Sundays when the buff and bronzed flirt and mingle while guzzling champagne and tucking into luscious morsels. Other days are more chill.
