Rosewood Le Guanahani St. Barth is committed to the protection of the island’s native plant life, a vital part of the local ecosystem and a source of countless ecological benefits. By nurturing these species, we contribute to biodiversity, support natural carbon absorption, and further protect our planet for the future.
The seagrass beds in Grand Cul de Sac play an essential role in supporting the lagoon’s biodiversity. They provide food and shelter for endangered sea turtles and many species of fish. As natural nurseries, they contribute to the health of the marine ecosystem and help stabilize the seabed. Together with coral reefs and mangroves, they form a balanced environment that supports the island’s natural heritage.
Part of the resort’s natural beauty lies in the rich variety of native species found on the resort and on nearby "morne". This low-lying hill, typical of Caribbean landscapes, is home to unique plants such as cereus cactus, yellow balsam, and cotton shrubs, all adapted to dry and sunlit conditions. By preserving this natural area, we help sustain a delicate ecosystem that is both ecologically valuable and emblematic of Saint-Barthélemy’s biodiversity.
