St. Barts?

[Lois R]

Celebrity's CENTURY is going to St Bart's in February 2014:D

[TourDeCruise]

Does anyone know if there is a bike rental place close to the port in St. Bart's?

 

Any recommended restaurants with French food, seafood, and/or good Caribbean-French fusion food?

 

We are on the February 15th Celebrity Century cruise with Lois and lots of Cruise Critic company.

We probably won't even know until that day we are in St. Bart's unless there is one particular restaurant that stands out. But it will be fun looking at the list and planning or imagining being there. Did you see any restaurants that stood out to you?

None of major cruise lines call at St Barts.

 

We're sailing from the UK on a British ship in February and St Bart's is one of our ports of call. She weighs 77 000 tonnes and has the capacity for up to 2270 passengers. The line is P&O, part of the Carnival group and one of the major cruise lines in the UK.

Here are the helpful St. Bart's links that Lois & I were discussing, courtesy of Katie (Oville on Cruise Critic).

Hi Kathy, quite a few of them look good:D;):)

[TourDeCruise]

Lois, I agree. Expensive but good. Jack said we'll eat at Bistro on Five. Yeah, right. I doubt the Century renovations will add Bistro on Five.

 

I'm posting the links again. A couple didn't work right (page not found):

LOL....yes, it is pricey but sometimes I just splurge on things;)

 

I am sure Jack knows Century doesn't have that venue.....:eek::D

Yeah, he knows; he's been on the Century seven times. :rolleyes: He is used to Bistro on Five being on the ships now, and Bistro came readily to his mind.

 

Le Carré Lounge looked pretty good - not as expensive and with some good options. From the pictures, it looks like an attractive place. In addition to the Lunch menu, look at the Gourmet menu. I'm not all the way through looking at the restaurants yet.

I'm with you on the Century; thanks for the links. I was glad to get a peek at the 2 beaches that have been recommended on the threads.
