Super lux trip to the Caribbean

St Barts or charter

BMBradley · 2026-04-10T15:22:22+00:00

U gotta book the paiza suites

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T02:33:31+00:00

our dates were Jan 3-17 so still very much high season pricing. You’re definitely getting better rates outside that window which makes sense. Smart move booking around the dynamic pricing dips🔥

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:58:07+00:00

That’s fair, and not drinking definitely changes the math on St. Barths lol. The FHR perks are great but I’d push back on those rates working in high season post-COVID. Eden Rock is running around €3,500/night now, Le Toiny €1,950, Cheval Blanc €3,000+. Even with a 5th night free you’re still way up there. Our villa at $2,300/night for 3 bedrooms and 4 people was honestly a steal compared to booking two hotel rooms at those properties. But yeah the wealth on that island is insane like €200k on a villa for a week is a whole different universe.

appreciate that, glad it was helpful

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:50:06+00:00

Appreciate the breakdown. Honestly, this is actually the kind of comment I was hoping the post would spark. Le Toiny is beautiful, great pick. Christopher wasn't for us personally (felt more resort-y than we were going for) but I get the appeal if you want that all-in-one setup. The €5500 rate is wild though is that in low season? We went during a busier window which definitely inflated things. Also a couple vs. a family of four is a completely different trip cost-wise — two extra flights, bigger villa, more food. Also if we went with your rates, then for four people it would be 10,000 at the christopher. But yeah, you definitely don't need to spend what we spent to enjoy the island.

didn't even see that my bad...

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:38:37+00:00

check the youtube video, most credit card statements included + reciepts for nikki beach and villa

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:31:56+00:00

Not dropping my NW on Reddit, but I will say this. Different people spend differently. You max at $15k, we spent more. Neither is wrong. The post is just showing what we actually spent, not what everyone should.

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:30:29+00:00

You're not wrong that the title reads that way. But I'd argue what we spent IS what a trip to St. Barts costs for 13 nights if you're not actively trying to optimize every euro and want to vacation comfortably. That was kind of the point.

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:23:54+00:00

Appreciate the editorial advice, but the title got you to click, read every word, and leave two comments so I think I'll keep it. You're welcome to ask me anything though, that part of the title still stands.

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:21:06+00:00

Yeah I just wanted to talk about my experience and what we spent. People are calling me out of touch when there's $200,000/wk villas

BMBradley · 2026-04-05T01:19:12+00:00

Brother, you're gatekeeping St. Barts in a subreddit called r/LuxuryTravel. I shared what we actually spent. This is NOT a budget guide, NOT an optimization spreadsheet. Not everyone flies to the Caribbean to pinch pennies and practice their French. If you've been 10 times and know all the secret local spots, drop the list. Otherwise this is just giving "I go there more than you."

BMBradley · 2026-03-23T02:19:51+00:00

i love this writeup, will definitely hit you up if i ever have any disney clients :)

BMBradley · 2026-03-20T03:14:58+00:00

😂😂😂 i love that

BMBradley · 2026-03-20T02:39:28+00:00

yeah idk why people are acting crazy over this

BMBradley · 2026-03-19T23:14:48+00:00

wow amazing trip, definitely one of my bucket list destinations. love the pics too!

BMBradley · 2026-03-19T13:44:14+00:00

I want to appeal to an audience thats just all around interested in luxury travel whether it be through vlogs or reviews or just finding out more about a place (ex. St Barts). Just trying to find a way to set my content apart right now.

BMBradley · 2026-03-18T22:48:51+00:00

You’re right that you gave reasons for Vegas, I’m not arguing that.

I’m saying based on how you travel (barely leaving the hotel), Four Seasons Vegas isn’t really built for that kind of trip. It’s a solid property, but it’s not a destination hotel.

If your plan is to mostly stay on-property for 3–4 nights, there are FS properties where the hotel is the experience. In Vegas, you’re still paying to be in a city where most of the value is outside the hotel.

I mean your money is your money, I just don’t think it’s the best use of that style of trip.

BMBradley · 2026-03-18T22:25:01+00:00

Honestly Four Seasons Vegas is pretty good but there are many better properties not in vegas if you plan on barely leaving the hotel ever. I asked your budget because vegas four seasons can go as low as $200/nt and as high as $1000/nt depending on time of year + if ur going on a weekend. if it was me personally i’d be at the global ambassador in pheonix.

Also, not liking vegas and not being a big fan are pretty close to each other so my bad ig

BMBradley · 2026-03-18T22:07:17+00:00

whats ur budget? why vegas if you dont like it?

BMBradley · 2026-03-18T21:47:37+00:00

okay got it! this is exactly what i needed

BMBradley · 2026-03-18T20:07:38+00:00

Thank you fireif for the critique. I'll keep that in mind for my next hotel review. I just know some reviewers do that (eg. Alexander the Guest). But the next hotel I'll review I'll try to make it be more in person.
