Meet Jasmine Lister, the founder of Saint Barths Wellness Retreat and the creative force behind transformative wellness experiences in some of the world’s most beautiful settings. A licensed acupuncturist and practitioner of Functional and Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jasmine brings years of hands-on training in holistic therapies, nervous system restoration, and integrative health.

She launched her first wellness retreat and workshop series in the Caribbean, founding SBH Wellness Retreat in Saint-Barthélemy, where she curated luxury wellness programs for private villas, yachts, and high-profile clients. Drawing from this rich experience, she now blends ancestral healing modalities, Medical Medium–inspired nutrition, and mindful luxury into retreats that nurture both body and spirit.

With her intuitive, grounded approach and global perspective, Yassi creates welcoming, elegant spaces for guests to slow down, reconnect, and restore balance—inside and out.

About
Castello di Santa Cristina is nestled within 100 hectares of organic farmland, woodlands, and olive groves. The estate practices sustainability through organic agriculture, growing olive oil and produce on-site or sourcing locally to support seasonal, low-impact food systems. Renovations of the 17th-century castle use traditional materials to preserve its heritage. Energy-efficient lighting and pellet-based heating reduce environmental impact, while refillable amenities and composting help minimize waste. The land is pesticide-free, supporting native biodiversity and local conservation efforts, reflecting a deep respect for nature and history.
