I stayed with Bertrand and Antonela for almost 3 months (August-October) and as I arrived in low season, my stay was more holiday than work. Most of the things have already been written here (deep cleaning, rules, diving, wonderful island) so I guess there is no reason to repeat it all. All in all, I really enjoyed my stay with them, we had a lot… read more

I am sorry for the late feedback. I stayed on the amazing Island of St Barts, with Antonela and Bertrand, for 2 and half month from mid January to late March 2019.

I had the most wonderful time there, being a diving instructor I was always out on the boat, guiding dives in the beautiful waters of the Caribbean, you can see turtles, spotted eagle… read more rays, nurse and reef sharks, octopuses, and so many fish!

Antonela and Bertrand are a lovely couple, they have their house rules, so as long as you follow them and do the jobs they ask you to do, you will all get along well. Unfortunately I didn't speak any french, so I missed out on some of the conversations going on in the house, I would suggest learning some french before you go.

While I was there, I spent my time with 3 amazing girls over the 2 1/2 months, Daphne who showed me the ropes and how everything work, in the house and on the boat, loved diving with her! Coralie and I spent a month together, wonderful adventures around the island, so many beautiful beaches to explore and Sabrina for the last 3 weeks, what fun, I took her for her first dives in the sea and completed her PADI Open Water with her, we ended up sharing a room and became very close. It was lovely being there with other workaway girls but if you are the outgoing type, then it's easy to make friends with the locals. You can go to ladies night, for free champagne, Antonela will make you feel right at home, she is lovely.

The house is situated on the hill, about 10 mins walk from the beach, and 40 mins walk for the capital where the night life is, very safe place to hitch hike.

They like you have to some diving experience before you go, to be helpful to Bertrand on the boat, other jobs you will be asked to do, cooking, cleaning, looking after the chickens and the garden with watering and picking veg.

You may have to share a room, if people come to stay, I ended up sharing with all 3 girls at different times during the time I was there, you get very close.

Bertrand can be a little intimidating when you first meet him but it's all exterior, he is soft when you get to know him. Plans change so be prepared for that to happen. If you work the mornings you will get your afternoons off and probably the Sunday too, but this can change if there are dives.

Go to St Barts with an open mind and you will have an amazing experience! It really is a brilliant place, I miss it!
Thank you so much for sharing your home with me and for all the diving, I am very grateful! xx

Daphne stayed with us for three months. She has been a very good worker. She organized herself very well to get the tasks done, have some free time, and even study her courses online! We are happy we could host her, and we would definetely host her again. Mom and dad love you: LOL !!!!

I stayed with Bertrand and Antonela for 3 months (Nov2018 - Jan2019). I am very grateful they gave me the opportunity to live in that special island, and to improve my skills as a diver. Bertrand has been diving for many years, and as a Divemaster I could learn lots from him. I also learnt how to be a deckhand on his boat and, eventhough it is… read more

Birdy and Antonella are amazing hosts and I really enjoyed my month spent with them in St Barts on my first Workaway.

I was made to feel at home right from the start, Birdy and Anto have an great house set in the hillside overlooking St Jean with amazing views.

I loved my experience in St-Barth. It is surely a one of a kind thing ! The culture, the beach, the diving... Island life is the dream!

The work was cooking, cleaning, gardening. And when there were dives, you go on the boat with Bertrand. Anto and Bertrand are very clear and picky on how they want things done in the house. If you understand… read more

Gabriel is a nice guy, anything you will ask, he will do!!!

This is the first time I get a DM with me.

As no experience to be a deckhand, you should be always behind Gabriel, repeat more than 3 times how to proceed. Even with this way, one day, as the boat wasn't tide correctly on the bow, we heat the dock and "break" the corner of the… read more

My first work away adventure was like a dream. Birdee is full of life and makes you feel like part of the family from day one. I was newly certified as a divemaster and Birdee took time teaching me the ropes of a deckhand.
Work was very straight forward, had fun trying to make vegetarian cuisine when I'm used to a 'meat and 3 veg' diet, thank… read more
