Newport, RI, November, 2011 – WIMCO, the largest and longest-established St. Barts villa rental company, has just released the 2011/2012 Vendôme Guide to St. Barthelemy. The Guide continues to be the most comprehensive resource for planning a vacation to St. Barts with the inside scoop on beaches, restaurants for every taste, events for every interest, new technology and 240 villas for every tax bracket. The guide is distributed in villas and stores in St Barts, and can be ordered directly from Wimco at info@wimco.com

Restaurants for every taste -With some 60 restaurants on the eight-mile island, St. Barts is by far the Caribbean’s “foodiest” destination. The Guide’s 144 include lists of where to eat:

Easy on the Wallet	Classic French
Lunch on the Beach	Gourmet
Romance	Crole
Exotique	Asian/Italian
See and be Seen	Waterfront for dinner

Beaches for every mood - A helpful map points out the location of each beach. For example:

La Petite Anse – A tiny, crescent-shaped beach with some of the best snorkeling
St. Jean – Lively daytime scene with 3 cafes and watersport rentals
Saline Beach – Placid waters, green zone with no development, sand dunes
Petite Cul de Sac - Very private, remote beach with dead calm waters

Events for every interest - St. Barts hosts events year-round to entertain one and all:

New Year’s Eve Regatta – The winner of this one-day-around-the-island race in December gets their name inscribed on “The Perpetual Trophy”, which remains on display at the Port of Gustavia. The Bucket Regatta, sister event to the Newport Bucket, is held in late March, and the Les Voiles Regatta spans the second week in April
St Barth Music Festival – Showcases classical and jazz musicians plus world class dancers in January.
Carnival – As February closes, this annual extravaganza sees the island emblazoned with costumes, celebrations, street parties, live music and parades.
Festival Gastronomique - May welcomes the ten-day island-wide celebration of the best St Barts has to offer in French wine, cuisine and service.
