Bonjour,

I hope this email finds you well as the summer of 2021 comes to an end, and we greet the busy fall days. The summer was indeed a busy one for us, and we have some exciting news to share. St. Barth Properties has recently partnered with Nocturne Luxury Villas, an innovative and visionary newcompany founded by seasoned veterans in the hospitality industry. Operating under its Exceptional Stays brand (www.exceptionalstays.com), Nocturne is perfecting a platform to acquire and integrate luxury vacation rental management companies in exclusive leisure destinations. Naturally, St. Barth Properties is an important piece of the plan. We are thrilled with the new partnerships and the opportunity to better serve our valued clients.

In a seamless transition, St. Barth Properties will operate as St. Barth Properties,by Exceptional Stays. Our offices in Franklin, MA and harborside in Gustavia are unchanged and staffed with our same amazing team of villa and hotel specialists that youve come to know. And our concierge team is still at the ready to ensure your dream vacation!

At this time, I will be stepping back and have passed the baton to my son Tom Smyth who has now assumed the role of president of St. Barth Properties,by Exceptional Stays. In addition, he serves as Nocturne Luxury Villas Chief Operating Officer (COO).

Tom and I remain co-owners of St. Barth Sotheby's International Realty and happy to assist all those whose dream it is to own their own piece of paradise.

Im so proud of founding St. Barth Properties and, with your patronage, Ive watched it grow over the past three decades.Merci.Transitions like this can be bittersweet, but Ill now have more time to enjoy the beautiful island of St. Barth. And Ill watch with the same pride as Tom and the Nocturne/ Exceptional Stays team make St. Barth Properties better than ever in the years to come.

Our Guests Say...”

From one of our guests who enjoyed a recent villa vacation at  Villa Colibris:

Our trip was excellent, and we were thoroughly impressed with your company. We used the concierge for reservations both before we arrived and once, we were there. They were excellent … I will say we seemed to get the best tables when you got us the reservations. We were on the terrace at Bonito, had a great corner booth in the main room at LIsola, and were beach front at the Pearl for lunch.
