Saint Barthélemy isn’t just a destination—it’s an experience tailor-made for love, beauty, and freedom. And to explore it at your own pace, there’s no better companion than a rental car.
At Dollar SBH, whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, an anniversary, or simply the joy of being together, we have the perfect car to match your style, itinerary, and budget. Here’s how to enjoy a romantic weekend in St. Barth—keys in hand.
Why Rent a Car for a Romantic Getaway in St. Barth?
Though small in size, Saint Barth is rich in diversity. Within a few kilometers, you’ll pass from wild beaches to designer boutiques, from hilly trails to fine dining spots, from peaceful lagoons to lively harbor scenes. Renting a car is the best way to truly experience all sides of the island.
Freedom and Intimacy
Forget waiting for taxis or walking under the midday sun. With your own rental car, you can stop at hidden coves, chase sunsets, or simply cruise along the coast with music playing and the top down. This freedom of movement turns your stay into a personal adventure, just for two.
A Car for Every Style
At Dollar SBH, couples can choose from a range of stylish and practical vehicles:

Day 1: Arrival, Beach Time, and Sunset Romance
Morning: Arrival at the Airport or Port
In St. Barth, arrivals already feel special. As soon as you land or dock, your Dollar SBH car is ready and waiting. No waiting lines, no transfers—just you, your keys, and the open road.
Noon: Lunch with Your Toes in the Sand
Head to St. Jean for your first taste of island life. Park near the beach and enjoy lunch with your feet in the sand. Tuna tartare, Creole salads, fresh juice or tropical cocktails—welcome to paradise.
Afternoon: Beach Hopping by Car
Let your car take you to explore the island’s most beautiful beaches:
- Gouverneur: wild, romantic, and perfect for swimming together
- Saline: vast and peaceful, a bit of a walk, but worth it
- Shell Beach: near Gustavia, ideal for a quick dip
If you’ve rented a convertible, every drive becomes a journey through sunlight and sea breeze, with nature all around.
Evening: Aperitif with a View
As the sun begins to set, drive up to Colombier or Vitet for panoramic views. Many Dollar SBH vehicles include GPS or mobile navigation, guiding you to the most scenic spots.
Finish the day with a drink on a rooftop lounge in Gustavia or a quiet beach bar, where the evening lights dance over the water and your only plan is to enjoy the moment.
Day 2: Brunch, Nature Walk, and a Romantic Dinner
Morning: Brunch in Lorient or Flamands
After a restful night, start your day with brunch at a cozy café or a French bakery tucked away in one of the island’s charming neighborhoods. With your car, you can easily reach the island’s best-kept culinary secrets.
Late Morning: Romantic Hike to Colombier
Drive toward Petite Anse or Flamands, then take a scenic trail down to Colombier Beach. Accessible only by foot or boat, it’s one of St. Barth’s most pristine and romantic spots.
Pack a picnic and bring it along—some Dollar SBH vehicles even include a mini cooler so you can keep drinks and snacks fresh for your secluded beach lunch.
Afternoon: Chill and Shop
Return from your beach adventure and head toward Grand Cul-de-Sac to relax or to Gustavia for a little boutique shopping. Look for a keepsake, a local creation, or a personalized souvenir to mark your time together.
Evening: Romantic Dinner and Night Drive
Book a table for two overlooking the lagoon or nestled in the hills. With your car, you can choose a restaurant away from the crowds—just the two of you, candles, and Caribbean flavors.
After dinner, take a leisurely drive under the stars. Or return to the beach for a moonlit stroll. Some Dollar SBH vehicles even project a stylized map of St. Barth onto the ground when you open the door—a magical detail to end your night.
Romantic Getaway… on a Smart Budget
Contrary to popular belief, a weekend in St. Barth doesn’t have to break the bank. Renting a car with Dollar SBH helps you save time, avoid pricey taxi fares, and discover the island at your own pace and without added costs.
For couples on a limited budget, compact models like the Kia Picanto, the electric Wuling Yep, or the versatile Suzuki Jimny offer all the freedom you need—without compromising on comfort.
Dollar SBH regularly offers weekend packages, short-stay deals, and free extras on request, like child seats, beach gear, phone chargers, or coolers—ideal for a hassle-free trip.
