THE CHRISTOPHER AND CARL GUSTAF<br />

GET FIVE STARS<br />

Classified until now as four-<strong>st</strong>ar<br />

luxury hotels, both the Chri<strong>st</strong>opher<br />

and Carl Gu<strong>st</strong>af have added a fifth<br />

<strong>st</strong>ar. The Collectivity’s executive<br />

committee agreed to the reque<strong>st</strong> by<br />

these two hotels, and awarded their<br />

extra <strong>st</strong>ars during a meeting on<br />

July 6, after receiving a thumbs up<br />

from the territorial tourism commission<br />

on June 15. The Chri<strong>st</strong>opher<br />

and Carl Gu<strong>st</strong>af join Le Toiny<br />

and Isle de France, which received<br />

their fifth <strong>st</strong>ars la<strong>st</strong> March, in the<br />

pantheon of top-rated hotels in<br />

Saint Barthélemy.<br />

The new five-<strong>st</strong>ar rating in Saint-<br />

Barthélemy is the result of the<br />

Novelli law adopted in France in<br />

2009, and amendments made to the<br />

local tourism code. In<strong>st</strong>itutionally,<br />

Carl Gu<strong>st</strong>af Chri<strong>st</strong>opher ©Pierre Carreau<br />

the territorial tourism commission<br />

is in charge of awarded the hotels’<br />

<strong>st</strong>ars. “We are very proud,” enthuses<br />

Marion Fayard, director of the<br />

Carl Gu<strong>st</strong>af. “This fifth <strong>st</strong>ar represented<br />

a huge challenge for us. We<br />

worked very hard to obtain it.” For<br />

Pierre-Alexandre Maillard, manager<br />

of thr Chri<strong>st</strong>opher, “The winning<br />

of this fifth <strong>st</strong>ar is the successful<br />

realization of the major inve<strong>st</strong>ments<br />

made over the pa<strong>st</strong> three<br />

years by the Pitch Promotion<br />

group.” The Pointe Milou hotel<br />

recently renovated all of its rooms,<br />

as well as its two re<strong>st</strong>aurants, the<br />

swimming pool, and pool deck. It<br />

has also added a seaside spa and<br />

fitness room, plus four new suites.<br />

“This fifth <strong>st</strong>ar is also great encouragement<br />

for the <strong>st</strong>aff to continue to<br />

guarantee that the hotel meets with<br />

the success it deserves,” adds<br />

Maillard.

ST BARTH SUMMER SESSIONS:<br />

MUSIC EVERYWHERE!<br />

Once again this year, the association<br />

St Barth Rocks has organized<br />

the St Barth Summer Sessions, an<br />

eclectic <strong>music</strong> fe<strong>st</strong>ival with arti<strong>st</strong>s<br />

from around the world. From<br />

Augu<strong>st</strong> 4-15, the <strong>st</strong>ars on the fe<strong>st</strong>ival<br />

ro<strong>st</strong>er include DJs from the German<br />

collective Jazzanova, as well<br />

as Anduze, Arturo Rodriguez,<br />

David H, Tom Howie, and Jimmy<br />

Vallance (who has a record coming<br />

out on the label, Get Physical), plus<br />

Josh Logan, Ryan Fardy, Adam<br />

Lasher Band, Alex Merrell, Yo-One<br />

Sutter, Eitch from New York, and<br />

representatives of the Brazilian<br />

EITCH<br />

New York singer Eitch (pronounced<br />

H) has a <strong>st</strong>yle evoking that of<br />

Björk: a unique universe that<br />

playfully fuses a hybrid of vocally<br />

driven alternative <strong>music</strong>. Her<br />

album, “Everything, Nothing,”<br />

follows an electro-pop vein with<br />

certain songs that recall popular<br />

Canadian singer Grimes. But<br />

Eitch brings a totally personal<br />

<strong>st</strong>yle to her <strong>music</strong>. A special<br />

treat!<br />

ANDUZE<br />

Originally from the American<br />

Virgin Islands, Anduze is a soul<br />

singer following in the foot<strong>st</strong>eps<br />

of such <strong>st</strong>ars as Marvin Gaye,<br />

Curtis Mayfield, or Otis Redding.<br />

Anduze is accompanied on<br />

scene with Aberto Pra Balanço<br />

and Alvaro Kapaz.<br />

Every night there will be a<br />

concert at La Plage, while<br />

other events are scheduled<br />

at various hotels that are<br />

participating in the St Barth<br />

Summer Sessions: Chri<strong>st</strong>opher<br />

Hotel, Le Sereno, Taiwana,<br />

Isle de France, and<br />

Le Village St Jean, plus<br />

the re<strong>st</strong>aurants Bonito, La<br />

Route des Boucaniers,<br />

L’Esprit, Le Piment, and<br />

La Cantina.<br />

<strong>st</strong>age by a guitar, bass, drums,<br />

and sax. His mo<strong>st</strong> recent album,<br />

Closure, expresses the throes of<br />

a dramatic love affair.<br />

EMILY ELBERT<br />

Steeped in folk <strong>music</strong> that<br />

evokes the open plains of her<br />

native Texas, 23 year-old Emily<br />

Elbert <strong>st</strong>arted singing, compo-<br />

sing, and playing the guitar at<br />

the age of 14. She has performed<br />

around the world, and her late<strong>st</strong><br />

album, “Alive, In Love,” came<br />

out la<strong>st</strong> February.<br />

JAZZANOVA<br />

One of the highlights of the program:<br />

known for their “nu-jazz,”<br />

the German DJs from the elec-<br />

tive collective, Jazzanova, have<br />

spent over 15 years mixing,<br />

remixing, and producing for the<br />

independent labels, Compo<strong>st</strong><br />

Records and Sonar Kollektiv,<br />

with their compelling compositions<br />

shaping the <strong>music</strong>al scene<br />

on an international basis. Not to<br />

be missed!

Now you can turn to the Lil’E<br />

help meet your needs. “You<br />

can sail alone for your pleasure.<br />

But to participate in a<br />

regatta, you need a real crew.<br />

And often enough, you can be<br />

out there were people who<br />

would have liked to participate,<br />

but they didn’t let you know,”<br />

regattas they are intere<strong>st</strong>ed in<br />

and the dates they are available,<br />

from actual races to casual sailing,<br />

and the position they hold,<br />

from helmsman to tactician.<br />

chance to earn your sea legs,”<br />

he notes. To be contacted, candidates<br />
