Our room was one of the 4 rooms available in their Rock Classics category. As you can guess, these rooms are situated on the iconic rock of Eden Rock and provide spectacular views of the ocean that can be enjoyed from a private terrace. The rooms at Eden Rock are individually named, rather than having room numbers, our particular room was named "Corail", which is french for Coral. This is important as your room name is used to reserve/save your space at the beach and when in the restaurants - much like you would with your room number at other properties.
Here are some pictures of our room, I am actually going to start with the view from our terrace that can actually be enjoyed when sitting on the bed:

This is looking from the terrace into the room. You can see the king sized bed through the doors.

The room itself, was a little small, but for the 2 of us it provided enough space to relax and unwind after our day in the sun. And, let's face it - you're not in St. Barts to sit around your room. If you are looking for a little more space, Eden Rock has many other categories to select from.

Waiting for us in our room, as part of the amenities that we received, was a wonderful bottle of champagne along with some welcome fruits:

The room also had ample closet space, a safe, a miniifridge stocked with the usual suspects of beverages, and free tea :

The bag you see on the shelf in the closet is provided to you as a beach bag, and is free for you to take home after your stay. A great thought by Eden Rock as we have continued to use it since we left:



The bathroom was very well laid out with the sunken shower to the left - with a wonderful window that opened and provided a view of the ocean, the vanity and sink in the middle and the toilet to the right.




The amenities in the bathroom include a travel cosmetics bag that some essentials:

The real treat in regards to their amenities are the body lotion, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner that are made on the island. You can also purchase them at the shop at Eden Rock.

Probably the best part of the room however, was the private terrace. This was the perfect space to sit and enjoy the views of the oceans, the ships, and just generally letting the tranquility of Eden Rock and St. Bart's wash over you.


Overall, we loved our room at Eden Rock and would not hesitate to recommend this category to any of our clients. Those with larger families would likely be better situated in a larger room, but as mentioned, this is not a problem at Eden Rock as they have categories to satisfy any number of guests you may be traveling with.
