Below are two options we recommend for hotel booking in the Simpson Bay area:

We have negotiated preferred rates below for those looking to stay at Simpson Bay Resort.  Hotels.com also usually runs great specials at this property or if you have credit card points to use from Chase Reserve or Sapphire, it can be booked through Ultimate Rewards.
Here is the description of the room type: https://simpsonbayresortmarina.com/suites-and-villas
 
Simpson Bay Resort and Spa (rates include ALL fees)
  • Deluxe Studio 2           $146.00 per night (taxes included) - 1 King Bed 
  • Deluxe Studio Plus 4           $185.00 per night (taxes included) - 1 King Bed, 1 Queen Murphy Bed
  • One Bedroom               $192.00 per night (taxes included) - 1 King Bed, 1 Queen Murphy or 2 Twin Murphy Beds, Full Kitchen
Simpson Bay Villas Building (rates include ALL fees) - Most recently renovated.
  • Junior Suite  $161.00 per night (taxes included) - 2 Full Beds (This option does not have a King bed)
  • Suite  $212.00 per night (taxes included) - 1 King Bed, 2 Murphy Beds
  • 2 Bedroom, 2 bath - Villa  $302.00 per night (taxes included) - 1 King, 2 Full Beds & 2 Murphy Beds

Some of the perks of Simpson Bay is the multiple pools, 5 restaurants & 3 bars, convenience store, casino and piano bar all within a 3 minute walk.  This is traditionally a timeshare property but the rooms are now in a hotel pool for booking.  The villas building is their most luxurious product and guarantees Oceanview but almost all their rooms have some type of view.  The walk to the wedding venue will be approximately 10 minutes down a hill!
 
How to book at rates above:
Please email sbrreservations@simpsonbayresort.com with your requested dates and please include the Barrett Wedding and they will get the rates locked in.
You need to book before October 6th, 2022

 

 

The other recommendation is Royal Palm Resort in Simpson Bay.  It is recently renovated and only reopened 1 year ago.  Rumor is it will become a Hilton property by the wedding time but that won't affect reservations.  This property only has 1 pool and limited on site dining etc but is located in the heart of Simpson Bay.  You are a 1 minute walk to the Yacht Club, No Where Special Bar, Restaurants and the wedding venue.  For two couples looking to share a 2 bedroom this is the best option as it is 2 King beds for their 2 bedroom suites compared to Simpson Bay which is a King and 2 Full Beds in the second room.  There is a pull out couch in the living room and everything is oceanview.   There are also 1 bedrooms.  

At this time if you prefer this option, it's best to book directly online at hotels.com, or any booking platform.  

 
Keep in mind there are endless additional options depending on what you are looking for.
Additional hotel options in the area are Atrium Resort which is less fancy but another great location.  For those looking for a true 5 star hotel, Belmond La Samanna is located about 25 minutes from the action of Simpson Bay.
For those looking to stay on the French side of the island either before or during the dates, there are plenty of rentals in the Orient Beach Village Community or one of our favorite boutique hotels on Grand Case beach is Le Temps Des Cerises for amazing food options.
 
There are plenty of villas and private 2-4 bedroom rentals in the Simpson Bay/Pelican area.

If you are only coming from November 8-12th or 13th you won't need a rental car as we will plan transport for all wedding events.  If you are extending your trip I would recommend renting a car for a few days to get to truly enjoy the island.
 
Taxis from the airport or hotels are extremely easy to get and Simpson Bay area is only 10 minutes from the airport (depending on traffic).
