Esprit de la Mer | 5 BR
Description
With its gated drive curving in a slow 180-degree arc that clearly displays Marigot’s harbor, the northern hills, and Pic Paradis, Esprit de la Mer rests along the Baie Rouge coastline with a poise that feels both majestic and welcoming.
The estate is located in one of St. Martin’s most dramatic locations, where the sea, sky, and sculpted rock create a natural amphitheater for sunrise and sunset, just a short distance from the island landmark known as David’s Hole. The atmosphere is set by the approach, which frames the view as soon as you arrive with palms in the breeze, the Caribbean’s glimmer below, and architecture depicted in wide, sunlit gestures.
Esprit de la Mer’s interior opens up in spacious, view-led volumes that give the impression that the outdoors is always there. Every angle of the coastline is captured by open frames, and the horizon is drawn into the living areas by glass and arches so thoroughly that you hardly notice the changes between rooms and terraces. With its color accents echoing the bougainvillea in the gardens, the grand white salon exudes brightness and freshness.
An oval sitting nook surrounded by picture windows invites the kind of peace and quiet that can only be found close to the sea: evening conversations as the light fades and yachts turn to pinpricks on the water, and afternoons spent reading a book.
From dining to relaxing to the water’s edge, the center of the house is easily accessible. You follow pathways to a wide terrace with a sparkling pool, past an open lounge designed for long, barefooted hours, and finally to a gazebo where you can enjoy the endless expanse of the Caribbean and the silhouette of Anguilla.
As the first light drifts across the bay, mornings in the glass-wrapped dining room are exquisite; by the end of the day, the gazebo transforms into the island’s best sunset theater, with the air turning honeyed and the sea deepening to indigo. When it comes to cooking, an open, contemporary kitchen keeps up with the scene. Its black granite countertops are cool to the touch, it has plenty of prep space for island feasts, and it flows naturally, making entertaining easy whether you’re dining inside or outside.
The villa’s rhythm of seclusion and community is shaped by its five king-sized suites. The main house has three bedrooms that are close to the living areas but quiet enough for rest. Each bedroom has a modern-colored ensuite bathroom with double sinks for leisurely morning routines. Two more suites are tucked away in the gardens below, each of which opens onto a terrace with a view of the ocean. This way, guests wake up to the breeze and the horizon instead of alarms.
Grandparents near the center of the house, friends with their own garden retreats, and teenagers asserting the enchanted independence of a separate terrace—the arrangement is ideal for both families and groups. The same promise is made everywhere: windows angled to catch the trades, ceiling fans that keep the tropical rhythm going, and air conditioning for deep sleep.
Esprit de la Mer stands out for its choreography of the day. Wander the stone paths to the gazebo when the light turns golden; enjoy dinners that roll into stargazing as the surf settles into its steady hush; and drift from a morning coffee in the glass dining room to a swim in the pool. A bakery, pharmacy, and grocery store are only a five-minute drive away, making errands simple. Baie Rouge beach is also close by for peaceful swims and barefoot strolls. Even when the island is bustling, the villa maintains its sense of seclusion because the lush gardens absorb the energy of the island and return only peace, making the house feel completely your own.
At its core, Esprit de la Mer is a house designed for presence: for the sound of palms casting shadows on white walls at noon, for the taste of sea salt after swimming, and for the little chorus of laughter that comes from a table full of people you care about. Naturally, the island will entice you to return, but the villa’s terraces, views, and leisurely pace will keep you coming back.
Nearby activities include hiking to Pic Paradis for expansive island-and-sea views, dining along Grand Case’s renowned restaurant row, and snorkeling Baie Rouge’s clear shallows and taking a safe photo of David’s Hole.
