"Shellona—the beach club of Hôtel Barrière Le Carl Gustaf —always attracts a stylish crowd, thanks to their innovative Greek food, vibey music, and position on a pearly-white sand beach."

Enjoyed our beach day at shellona. Beautiful waters and very chill vibes. 10 minutes walk from the ferry. Bring water shoes and snorkeling gear. Be prepared to set up on the sand a lot of shells,but then u can bring your own stuff. With the beach chairs you have to eat and drink their food items. Very relaxing chill vibes.$$$$$

Always a treat to have lunch at Shellona Beach. The service is relaxed but attentive and the view from the dining room cannot be beat. The food here is also always outstanding. We went for lunch as a large group and our preferred way to dine here is to just order heavy apps and then one or two mains for the table. Highly recommend the Shellona salad, truffle pizza, trio of dips and the lemon chicken. Everyone also really enjoyed the crispy chicken burger.

a location on the beach, with a superb view, you can go to the beach and then have lunch. An intimate, beautiful place, with very good service and extraordinary food. I recommend it, I always come back with pleasure. It is one of my favorite places in st Barth.

Shellona is one of those places that just feels like the definition of a perfect St. Barths afternoon. It’s right on Shell Beach — casual but beautiful — and the whole vibe is effortless. You can walk straight from the sand onto the deck and settle into one of those long, lazy lunches that somehow turns into late afternoon drinks. The food is Mediterranean-style, fresh, and really well done. We ate at pretty much every top restaurant on the island during the trip — but the lobster spaghetti at Shellona still stands out. It was easily the most expensive pasta I ordered the entire trip (and that’s saying something in St. Barths), but honestly? Worth every cent. Perfectly cooked, rich without being heavy, and exactly the kind of over-the-top island moment you want once you’re here. The rosé flows, the music is always the right energy — easygoing during the day and starts to pick up a little late as the afternoon rolls in. It’s the kind of place where you lose track of time in the best way. Definitely one of my go-to spots every time I’m in St. Barths — you can’t leave without doing at least one afternoon here. Oh the salt they use, Sal de Ibiza, is amazing but buy it on amazon- cheaper and way easier to purchase multiple times.

Visited on a public holiday, and it was one of the few places open for lunch. Being on a beach, it is absolutely perfect. The food is great, and the cocktail menu is creatively written. Price wise, you definitely need to watch out for the specials. My husband's King Crab legs with pasta was €375. Easily three times what we would have paid for the same dish in New York City. Otherwise it was a great spot for a memorable meal and beach day.

Don’t even get me started! This place was out of a movie! The atmosphere complimented with a wide variety of exquisite food puts this place above any other ocean side restaurant in St. Barths. The food of choice from me was the Mahi burger which was served with a delicious side of fries! The food blew me away but the views put me over the top! This place was the nicest fine dining I have ever visited and if I was to go back to St. barths I would go again! Although this place is on the pricey side, the food and atmosphere is a must visit! I loved my experience and would recommend this place to anyone visiting this beautiful island! 9.5/10

Great, relaxing lunch spot right on picturesque Shell Beach. We enjoyed great views of the crystal clear, blue ocean while eating a delicious lunch! The service was excellent; super friendly staff and very attentive. The food was very fresh (we picked out a live lobster for the special pasta of the day and they even had us select the sea bass that we wanted). The pasta was rich, but not too heavy, the grilled octopus was so good we ordered a second, and the sea bass was simply grilled and delicious (they remove the skin and bones table side). The side of grilled veggies and their fries are also both very good! And if you like torrijas and/or coconut sorbet, make sure you get both because they’re both amazing!
