On December 31st, The Surf Lodge rang in the New Year 2026 in St Barth with a celebration that felt refreshingly authentic: intimate, warm, and deeply rooted in the island’s spirit. 

From Lyon to St Barth, Cesare Pompanon is the story of a family who has transformed jewelry into a signature of light, elegance, and craft.

Long before the costumes, before the champagne fountains, before the world heard whispers of a nightclub perched above the sea, there was a simple wooden house on a hill in St Barth. It belonged to Carole, a woman whose laughter could ignite a room and whose vision was larger than the island itself.

Dive in, dream on, chase the sun, linger longer. Bold, botanical and unapologetically Mediterranean, Orlebar Brown’s new collection is like laughter on the late afternoon breeze.

Inspired by the elegance and spirit of St Barth, Hayley Ferguson has built Hanikon into a wine brand that tells a rich story of family, craftsmanship, and modern innovation.

Paula Doebrich, the Polish-born former model, has taken her career from the catwalk to building a prestigious jewelry brand, Meluzza. With her latest collaboration arriving in St Barth, she finds time to tell us just how.
