Set at the heart of the French West Indies, Saint-Barth is an idyllic holiday destination that offers a selection of unique luxury hotels. BARNES Saint-Barth connects hotel owners looking to dispose of their assets and investors looking for hotels with strong potential. BARNES Hotels Advisory specialises in luxury hotels, with 4 or 5 stars, helping their owners enhance their assets, complete the technical diagnostic file, and market the property.

BARNES Hotels Advisory gives priority to strategic unitary investments, without excluding portfolio sales.
In this type of niche sector, discretion is a key factor for owners and investors looking to carry out transactions on a confidential basis, off market, without going through the usual marketing channels. In order to ensure this, BARNES Hotels Advisory has developed its own network over more than 20 years, based on pooling and cross-over between the different services the BARNES entities propose.
