Villa Captiva

Villa Captiva is a recently constructed, avant-garde haven that blends calming Caribbean light with striking graphic contrasts, perched above Marigot’s crystal-clear waters.

This five-bedroom estate, which is made up of a number of stylish bungalows that cascade toward a private dock and a beach shaded by palm trees, captures the lagoon blues at every angle and offers the laid-back indoor-outdoor rhythm that characterizes St-Barths living. Villa Captiva is a stylish option for families and friends who want a place to congregate and a place to retreat. It can accommodate up to 10 adults and 4 small children and features a heated infinity pool, fitness center, and a constellation of peaceful lounges.

The aesthetic of the villa becomes apparent as soon as you enter the A/C living room: deep charcoal accents in the feature walls and rugs provide clear definition, while white, sculptured sofas echo the lines of the vaulted ceiling. The eye is drawn to the terrace and the glass-calm water beyond as sunlight streams through large apertures. The fully furnished kitchen, which includes a breakfast bar, makes mornings easy and chef nights smooth; next to it, the indoor dining space creates the ideal atmosphere for social meals that end with stargazing. Above, a mezzanine TV lounge creates a private haven for late-night movies and quiet downtime, while a quiet office with a library just behind provides a sophisticated workspace.

Outside, Villa Captiva is quiet and horizon. A heated infinity pool, whose edge reflects the sky and sail, is accessible via three elegant steps from the sea-facing terrace. An outdoor shower and a fun overflow waterfall keep everyone cool in between dips, and the deck is lined with sun loungers for long, lazy afternoons. A cool outdoor lounge and alfresco dining area beneath the covered section invite golden-hour chatter and candlelit dinners that are calmed by the trade winds.

The villa’s most private luxury is just a few steps below: a private dock and palm-shaded beach that serves as your own starting point for a morning paddle, a swim in glowing water, or a peaceful coffee break while the bay awakens.

Every suite at Villa Captiva has a high level of comfort and is arranged for privacy and view. Five air-conditioned bedrooms with TVs and private bathrooms are spread across five distinct pavilions connected by stairs and stone walkways:

Enjoy unhindered views from four bungalows with private terraces and queen-size beds that face the ocean.

Two more connected garden-view rooms, one with a queen bed and the other with four bunk beds, are located in another bungalow along a garden path. The rooms open to a private terrace and make an excellent family suite for kids and their caregivers.

A striking white-and-deep-black color scheme, soothing textiles, and well-considered lighting that transitions smoothly from day to night are all examples of the bedrooms’ elegant and tranquil design language. There are plenty of closets, whisper-quiet climate control, and easy access to the outside in every room, allowing the island breeze and birdsong to remain nearby without disturbing.

The estate subtly incorporates well-being. An air-conditioned fitness center beneath the pool level encourages morning exercise and post-beach rejuvenation; rinse off in the outdoor shower, then return to a lounger with a book as palms draw light across the deck. You can host a celebratory dinner or settle in for a week of restorative ease with ease thanks to practical details like shaded parking, a chef-capable kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and easy-to-follow pathways.

Villa Captiva is unique because of its balance of poise and play: a modern, graphic canvas that is softened by tropical landscaping; expansive views of the sea combined with private areas of shade; the independence of several bungalows combined with the communality of a central lounge and pool terrace. Espresso at the breakfast bar, a swim as the bay gets brighter, lounging on the dock at noon, grill-kissed lunches outside, and sunsets that change color from coral to indigo while people chat are all examples of how days write themselves.

Villa Captiva offers the unique fusion of design heritage, beachfront proximity, and family-friendly flexibility in the center of Marigot, near island beaches, bakeries, and Gustavia’s eateries and boutiques. Get there, let out a breath, and let the lagoon dictate the pace.
