Villa Epicure

With its glass-framed architecture, expansive social areas, and an unbroken view that stretches across the turquoise mirror of Grand-Cul-de-Sac to Turtle Island on the horizon, Villa Epicure commands a prime location in Marigot and epitomizes St-Barths at its most cinematic.

This seven-bedroom estate, designed for discerning groups and multigenerational getaways, reduces island luxury to its most basic components: light, space, breeze, and a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor living.

The view speaks for itself once you step inside. Boundaries are blurred by floor-to-ceiling bay windows, which let in an abundance of Caribbean light and maintain a continuous dialogue between the interior and the sea and sky. A sculptural, square coffee table is surrounded by two large sofas, creating a sophisticated setting for aperitifs, lengthy talks, and leisurely afternoons after the beach. Beyond, the chef-friendly kitchen, with its long breakfast bar, invites casual mornings with espresso in hand as the lagoon brightens, while the indoor dining area enjoys the same widescreen view. Pale stone, organic woods, and custom textures that let the ocean blues shine are the elements that make up this serene and clear color scheme.

Outside, Villa Epicure reads like a wallless living room. A stunning infinity pool that appears to flow directly into the horizon serves as the focal point of the expansive terrace with a view of the sea. With palms flickering in the trade winds and the water below changing through a dozen shades of blue, the large deck is lined with sun loungers for all-day lounging in between dips and page-turners. When the mood becomes more relaxed, a comfortable garden lounge nestled into lush landscaping creates the ideal setting for sunset spritzes and starlit nightcaps. For extended, leisurely meals, the covered alfresco dining area keeps everyone close to the action.

The accommodations at Villa Epicure are consistently of hotel quality and are designed as private havens. Each suite has seven air-conditioned bedrooms, a king-size bed, an en suite bathroom, and a light-filled, minimalist design that frames views of the garden or the ocean. For the desired bed-to-pool-to-coffee flow, three suites on the main floor open up close to the home’s social center. Four more suites on the lower level provide a layer of privacy for visitors with varying schedules; these are perfect for couples traveling together, families with teenagers, or a special area for nannies or grandparents. Deep sleep is the norm everywhere thanks to thoughtful lighting, cozy linens, spacious storage, and silent climate control.

Villa Epicure’s choreography of scale and ease is what makes it stand out from the rest. A day writes itself: sunrise swims, a leisurely breakfast at the bar, hours that stray between the water and the lounger, a late lunch in the shade, and golden-hour toasts as kites dance over the lagoon below. The warm materials and tastefully designed décor give expansive volumes an intimate feel. Beaches, water sports, and island dining are all within a short, picturesque drive when you’re ready to venture out; when you get back “home,” the evening is reclaimed by the palm hush and the horizon’s growing serenity.

Morning stretches by the pool, leisurely laps, and a walk along the landscaped paths before dinner are all made possible by the villa’s breezy openness, which promotes wellness and recuperation. In order to maintain the villa’s laid-back vibe, service areas are subtly incorporated into private chef nights and catered parties. Fast Wi-Fi when required and whisper-quiet A/C when desired, technology stays in the background so that the light, which is the main attraction, can remain where it belongs.

At its core, Villa Epicure is a place of presence. It’s the intersection of texture and transparency, where private areas of shade and calm balance out sweeping features like glass walls, an infinity edge, and a terrace that seems as expansive as the view. It’s a house that naturally hosts a milestone celebration and a sun-drenched, do-nothing week, and it makes both feel special.
