From the article:

"The new St. Barts is St. Martin — specifically, the French side and never, ever the honky-tonk Dutch side, which is crawling with cruise-shipping day-trippers. The superrich don’t stay in hotels there, they rent villas. Former president of France Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife, Carla Bruni, often stay at the Villa Pamplemousse (translation: House Grapefruit) at Christmas."

I dunno......highly doubt St Martin would replace St Bart's. Perhaps it's a stop off enroute type of stay?
