Villa Bastide
Description
Villa Bastide offers a sophisticated St. Barts getaway just a short distance from beaches and Gustavia by combining a laid-back indoor-outdoor rhythm with a polished, French-chic aesthetic.
Exquisite furnishings, glitzy décor, and carefully chosen artwork create a sophisticated atmosphere, while vibrant accents like textured rugs, color-popped cushions, and sculptured lighting keep things lively and upbeat. Fun, stylish, and peaceful all at once, it’s the perfect starting point for family or friends seeking island comforts with boutique-hotel flair.
Rooms for Living
When you first arrive, the view is framed by a large glass entryway that welcomes you into the spacious great room where the kitchen, dining area, and living area all blend together. Boundaries dissolve as the entire sea-facing wall opens to the terrace, allowing island light and trade winds to permeate the area. Wrap-around couches in the living room face a television for movie evenings or leisurely afternoons; gaze up to see planes glide into St-Jean below, a surprisingly endearing St. Barts tradition.
Dining & Kitchen
The contemporary kitchen at Villa Bastide is equipped with high-end appliances and custom cabinetry that make cooking (or plating a chef-prepared meal) a breeze. From breakfast through aperitifs, a sizable island connects the kitchen and dining areas, fostering close conversations. An outdoor dining table beneath the covered terrace can accommodate eight people for candlelit dinners with views of the valley and the ocean, while the interior table can accommodate six people and is ideal for informal get-togethers. For special occasions, your concierge can set up a private chef, daily delivery, catered menus, and grocery pre-stocking.
Bedrooms
Restorative sleep is promised in three modern bedroom suites, each featuring elevated French king beds, ensuite bathrooms, TVs (French satellite), and views of the ocean.
The primary suite is located off the pool terrace and features lounge chairs, an office nook, and an outdoor shower in the ensuite. This St. Barts favorite incorporates sky and foliage into your morning routine.
The second bedroom provides easy access to the center of the house since it opens from the living room.
The third bedroom is located close to the pool, across from the house façade, and is perfect for visitors who want to take quick dips from the deck to the door.
The atmosphere is kept calm and uncluttered with clean linens, black-out treatments, silent climate control, and careful storage.
Living Outside
Your all-day living space is the covered terrace, a cozy spot to read, listen to music, and enjoy drinks during the golden hour. A sizable infinity pool appears to overflow into the valley at its edge, and a shallow sun shelf serves as both a place for kids to play and a spot to relax with loungers in the water. When evening arrives, the terrace is the greatest place to watch the rosy-gold sunsets over St-Jean and the offshore islets of Île Frégate and Île Toc Vers.
Where
You can easily access the island from Villa Bastide: Gouverneur Beach is five minutes south, St-Jean Beach is eight to ten minutes north, Shell Beach is also five minutes away, and Gustavia (upscale shopping and glitzy dining) is five minutes by car. Go back “home,” open the window, and let the evening drift away to the sound of gentle surf and tree frogs.
Facilities & Services
Standard features include a fully functional fitness center for holiday workouts, high-speed Wi-Fi, Sonos music, Apple TV, gas grill, and full air conditioning. Six days a week, housekeeping is offered, and breakfast is served every day (except Sundays), which is a decadent touch that makes mornings delectably simple. No matter how many bedrooms are used, the villa rents at full occupancy rates during the Thanksgiving and December holidays.
Villa Bastide epitomizes St. Barts—stylish, effortless, and joyfully livable—with its French-chic interiors, smooth indoor-outdoor flow, and a view that transforms sunsets into nightly rituals.
