The Christopher hotel in St Barth is set to unveil a brand-new culinary concept under the stewardship of a new executive chef. 

The property has tapped Chef Arnaud Faye as its executive chef ahead of its seasonal reopening on Oct. 15. 

He comes to the hotel after having served most recently at the Chèvre d’Or in Eze on the Cote d’Azur. 

He has previous experience on the island, having served as a patron chef for the St Barth Gourmet Festival. 

Faye will lead the as-yet-unnamed eatery and will unveil a brand-new menu.

Anguilla has been changing its entry protocols back and forth for the past week; to help clear up the confusion, here is what travelers need to know.

Since July, the island has required all travelers eligible for vaccination to be fully vaccinated in order to enter the island.

That remains the case; all visitors eligible for vaccination (in effect over 18 years old) must show proof of full vaccination in order to be admitted to the island.

That doesn’t apply to unvaccinated minors who are accompanying fully vaccinated travelers;

Regardless of vaccination status, all visitors need to upload a negative PCR test taken and received within three to five days before travel. 

All visitors staying in a hotel, resort or licensed villa for any length of stay need to take a test upon arrival, and remain on property at their accommodation until they receive a negative test result. 

All visitors need to then take a test on day four of their trip. 

Test results are typically delivered within 12 hours. 

All travelers need to apply for Entry Permission to visit Anguilla; you can find more here.
