Pros:

Great hosts, Elliotte, Karl & Sylvana provided a very relaxing environmnet. They were prsent if you needed them, without "overservicing"..the ultimate boutique style accomodation!
Pinel Island a short boat shuttle away or if you prefer as we did, a kayak available to the beach in 15 mins or so. We were met by the Karubini island team of Peche and Sam who will take great care if you need food and /or drink. fabulous french cuisine about 10 mins away by car in Grand Case - le Cottage, Ocean 82 and Bistro Caraibe all excellent as well as great take away from Cynthia's.
Last but not least, a couple for furry friends Loopy and Ocho to make us feel like home. Merci encore a tous au Karubini!

Pros:

Our stay at Karibuni was amazing! The hospitality and attention from all the team was incredible, from the day we got there (late… because we had flight delays, and they came to the hotel to receive us even though it was after hours), loved our breakfast and Silvana’s big smile every morning bringing it in, the rooms where beautiful and the deck had the most amazing view of the area overlooking Pinel, we got to witness some beautiful sunrises there. The area is quiet and safe, we had restaurants, grocery stores and activities walking distance, and different beaches were a short drive away. Looking forward to going back to Karibuni. Thanks for everything!

Absolutely Amazing
Pros:

My wife and I have traveled to many places all over the world. We have stayed in some really great hotels and some not so great hotels. The Karibuni is by far one of my favorite hotels and we keep talking about how we need to go back again one day, hopefully sooner than later.

Prior to check in Elliot sent me the details of how to get to the hotel, check in procedures, etc...Once we got there he met with us gave us a welcome drink and went through the run down on breakfast, how to get to Pinel island and a few other items. Have to say he was fantastic through out our stay, even helping us order some food to be delivered for dinner. Elliot and the rest of the staff were so helpful and friendly, we felt like we were guests in their home.

Getting to Pinel island is a breeze on their boat and also much more fun when we kayaked there and back using the hotels kayaks.

We ate at the restaurant a few times and it was fantastic. Got the lobster it was fresh and delicious. All the staff at the restaurant and the beach were super friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back.

Wonderful experience. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delivered each morning and was fabulous. Samantha the housekeeper was the best!!!! The property is a hidden gem. It has its own boat to Pinel island where they own a restaurant. Lobster was fresh and delicious. Easy driving distance to Grande Case and Orient beach. Highly recommend the hotel.

Idyllic Environment
Pros:

This property is a perfect example of casual luxury. We had a fantastic experience at Karibuni Boutique Hotel. It is in an amazing setting, looking out over Pinel Island. I had high expectations after looking at the pictures online, and the reality did not disappoint. Karibuni was exactly the environment I was looking for. I believe it is my favorite Caribbean hotel that I have visited. With only 6 rooms, it feels more like a private villa than a hotel. I enjoyed staying in the Cul-de-Sac area, on the French side of the island. It had a laid-back residential feel.

Manon and Jules were extremely helpful with restaurant suggestions, and took care of making reservations for us (even ordering pizza to the hotel for us one night). They will also coordinate the complimentary ferry to Pinel, and make reservations for beach chairs and lunch at the Karibuni restaurant. They made everything completely seamless for us.

Having breakfast provided on our terrasse each morning was a great benefit. It mostly consisted of an assortment of breads and fresh fruit. The croissants were wonderful! And we couldn't have asked for a better view during breakfast. It was always a great start to the day.

This property was unique and beautiful. The owners and the staff were extremely helpful in anything we asked of them. Scheduling taxis into town, reservations, boat shuttles to their restaurant at Pinel Island, etc. Its just a chill and do what you want at your own pace kid of place. Loved it!

Pros:

With Karibuni, every picture they have on the website of the rooms, the view, and the experience is EXACTLY what you get. Karibuni is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at and is definitely a hotel you should book. Karl was extremely kind and welcoming as this was our first time in St. Martin; he went above and beyond to verify our arrival information so that he could personally greet us at the hotel. The villas are private, quiet, and provide the most incredible views of St. Martin and Pinel Island. The breakfast each morning is bountiful and enough to keep you full until late in the afternoon. We took advantage of the private boat tour to Pinel Island, and we also dined at the Karibuni Restaurant for lunch, which was also incredible. From the exceptional views and wonderful service, Karibuni is a must-stay in St. Martin!
