St Barts status question

We are considering staying over in St. Barts for 3 or 4 nights this summer as part of our trip to SXM. Can anyone provide an update (or a link to an update) on hotels, restaurants and beaches post Irma?

They are up an running ... Gustavia restaurants, shops are all open... Villas some are operational some are not... As far as hotels the last customer I delivered to last month who stayed in a hotel stayed at Saline Gardens .

The Bucket Regatta is running this weekend. It was a push but many restaurants and other businesses used it as a goal for reopening

Almost certain that the Toms Beach Hotel on St. Jean Beach is open. Maybe check their website for confirmation. And, it's one of the more affordable hotels on St. Barth's (if you choose to use the word 'affordable' on this particular island). St. Jean Beach (and Nikki Beach) are great if you've never been there.

St Barth is recovering faster than SXM. Most of the 5-star hotels are closed until at least this summer. The Christopher was about to reopen, but had an electrical fire in one of their restaurants which will keep them closed until fall. Villa Marie (formerly Francois Plantation) reopened a few weeks ago. Manapany reopened on Tuesday. Hotel le Village is open, as are Les Islets de la Plage, and several other small hotels. For beachfront restaurants, choices are slim. Shellona is open, Nikki Beach is not. La Plage at Tom Beach is not, nor is La Gloriette. Virtually all of the other restaurants, with the exception of those in the closed 5-star hotels, are open. Give 'em a few months, and more will reopen.

Nikki Beach has announced that they will reopen on March 30.
