Villa Epicure St Barts

Villa Epicure is a contemporary statement. Its design balances clean, modern lines with a warmth that comes from natural materials and a consistently soothing palette of grays, whites, and rich, dark wood. Scale is its defining characteristic.

This is a villa built for the view, a sprawling hillside compound in Marigot where every major space frames a 180-degree panorama of Grand Cul de Sac, Turtle Island, and the distant outline of St. Martin. The architecture serves that vista with walls of floor-to-ceiling glass, creating a visual flow that makes the boundary between inside and outside almost disappear.

It is a place that feels both impressively grand and surprisingly inviting. You understand the layout the moment you arrive. The property unfolds across two distinct levels, connected by a majestic stone staircase that anchors the home. The entire upper level is dedicated to living. Here, you will find a single, expansive room cleverly zoned into three areas: a lounge, a dining space, and the kitchen. Two oversized sectional sofas define the living area, facing a large square coffee table and that ever-present ocean backdrop. The dining area sits openly in the middle of the space. Over in the kitchen, a long rectangular breakfast bar corners the workspace, which comes fully equipped with a microwave, a coffee machine, an espresso machine, a toaster, a blender, and a dishwasher. All of it is air-conditioned. Sliding back the glass doors merges this entire area with the terrace, allowing the Caribbean breeze to become part of the atmosphere.

The living room is equipped for entertainment, too, with a Dish satellite system, Canal Sat, Apple TV, and a Sonos sound system. Outside, the view dominates. The terrace is a vast deck of dark hardwood, designed around the villa’s centerpiece: a 59.1-foot-long heated infinity pool. At 9.8 feet wide, this narrow ribbon of water appears to merge directly with the sea on the horizon. Glass railings ensure the vista remains utterly unobstructed from every sun lounger. For alfresco dining, you have a gas barbecue ready for use. The covered areas provide shade for lounging, and the entire space feels like an extension of the main living room. Just behind the pool, a generous circular parking area accommodates your group’s vehicles. The bedrooms are where Villa Epicure provides both community and privacy.

Seven in total, each with an ocean view and its own ensuite bathroom with a shower, they are configured across the two floors to suit different needs. Three bedrooms reside on the main upper level. Bedroom 1 is accessible directly from the living area and features a queen bed, a safe, a TV with US satellite, Apple TV, and Dish. Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 3, both with identical queen beds and entertainment setups including Apple TV, are accessed from outside, offering separation. The primary suite among these includes an outdoor rain shower, a distinctive touch that connects your routine to the elements. Down the stone staircase, the lower level houses the remaining four suites. This is where the villa’s flexibility shines. Bedroom 4 is a notable suite, featuring not only the standard queen bed, TV, US satellite, and safe, but also a mini bar and a Nespresso machine. Bedroom 5 and Bedroom 6 are two independent rooms, each with a queen bed, Apple TV, and the expected amenities.

Bedroom 7 completes the set with its own queen bed and entertainment package. According to the layout, two of these lower-level bedrooms can be closed off to form a family suite, while another stands as a larger independent retreat. They all share access to a large, semi-circular covered terrace, a versatile, shaded outdoor room. Each bedroom has its own character, observed in details like a navy blue headboard in one, a vibrant yellow throw in another, or a black netted lounge chair on a private deck. Beyond relaxation, the villa caters to active pursuits. A dedicated fitness room is equipped with an elliptical machine, a treadmill, exercise elastics, a yoga mat, a bench and weights, wellness rollers, and a Skillrow machine, all positioned to face an ocean view through large windows. Inside, the villa’s facilities include Wi-Fi throughout, French satellite TV options, and an iron and ironing board for convenience.

Located in the quiet hills of Marigot, Villa Epicure offers a serene eastern side of St. Barts experience. The journey here is straightforward; you are a 10- to 20-minute drive from the airport, and a 4x4 vehicle is not required for access. This seven-bedroom villa provides the space and configuration that large families or multi-generational groups seek, with the option to rent the neighboring property, Villa Mythique, for an expanded thirteen-bedroom estate. For over 20 years, Premium Island Vacations has specialized in matching guests with properties that fit their exact rhythm, and Villa Epicure is an example of contemporary island living designed for shared moments and private retreats.
