St Barth’s Le Toiny hotel is reopening for the season on Oct. 15, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

The 22-suite property is set on Toiny Beach, the island’s most popular surfing beach. 

It’s reopening with a new interior look, thanks to a “reimagining” by Lady Bee Osborn. 

That’s along with a pair of new four-bedroom villas, including Villa Nureyev, the former holiday home of Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev. 

The other villa is “Villa Over the Ocean,” which will launch on Dec. 15. 

Another new debut is the Surf Shack, a waterspouts operations that includes the option of booking surfing lessons by renowned professional surfer David Blanchard.
