Before you go
What guests ask us most before a stay in Public.
How far is Public from Gustavia?
Public is right next to Gustavia, on the northern edge of town. The harbour is a few minutes away by car, and the walk takes only slightly longer, though the road has traffic in high season. Shell Beach and the town's shops are a short drive or walk further.
Is there a beach at Public?
Yes, a short, calm beach that island families like for its quiet. It is a place for an easy swim rather than a long beach day. Swimming inside the port zone of Gustavia is not allowed, so use the beach itself, and for a bigger stretch of sand head to Saint-Jean or Flamands.
Is Public a quiet place to stay?
Yes, mostly. It is calm during the day and peaceful in the evenings, with sunset views over the water. Some of the area is shaped by port activity, so there can be daytime work and traffic nearby. It is a good choice if you want quiet with Gustavia only minutes away.
