Villa Grace St Barts

Grace: Contemporary Hillside Retreat in Anse des Cayes

Grace looks out on the ocean. Perched high on the Anse des Cayes hillside, Grace captures a sweeping, panoramic outlook over the open ocean and horizon. This view is the constant, the anchor for a contemporary two-level home built for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Tall palm trees punctuate the horizon, their silhouettes adding depth to the panorama that unfolds from nearly every room. The visual character is one of airy neutrality, a canvas of warm beige tones and white walls, deliberately energized by vibrant bursts of color. The hillside retreat uses floor-to-ceiling glass to connect the interior with the exterior, creating a fluid space centered on that commanding ocean perspective.

Six bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, are configured across the villa’s two levels. Three bedrooms are situated upstairs, while the other three are found downstairs; all six provide vistas of the sea and open directly onto a private terrace. The primary suite, Bedroom 1, is a queen-bedded room with a dedicated dressing area and a desk. Its en-suite facilities include a bathroom with a shower and a private outside shower. It is equipped with air conditioning, a safe, a TV with US satellite and Dish/Apple TV, and a Bose speaker for personal audio. This room shares a spacious terrace with the adjacent Bedroom 2. Bedroom 2 mirrors this setup with a queen bed, a dressing area, its own outside shower, and the same premium entertainment and audio equipment. Also on the main level, Bedroom 3 provides another queen-sized sanctuary with air conditioning, a safe, and TV with satellite. It includes a desk, a dressing area, and a Bose speaker, enjoying a private terrace with its ocean outlook. On the lower level, the sleeping quarters continue with equal consideration. Bedroom 4 can be configured as a king or twin beds, featuring an Italian shower in its en-suite bathroom. It has a desk, a dressing area, and a Marshall speaker. Bedroom 5 offers a larger king or twin bed configuration, incorporating a comfortable sofa and a desk alongside its TV, satellite, and Bose speaker. The final room, Bedroom 6, is furnished with a queen-sized bed and also includes a sofa and desk, complete with its own TV setup and Bose speaker. The decor across these rooms incorporates black-and-white photographs and colorful floral throws, adding personalized texture to the serene spaces.

The living spaces are designed around that connection to the outdoors. From the living room, one can step out to the front terrace and its infinity pool or to a separate, covered terrace situated behind the home. You will find elegant sofas here, equipped with a fan, and a dining table for eight. A Sonos sound system and entertainment options like Dish Network and Apple TV are integrated for easy use. From this central hub, the space flows into the kitchen, a professional-grade area that becomes a social focal point. It features a bold red kitchen island with a stainless steel top and built-in grill, a striking contrast to the neutral palette. The kitchen is outfitted with a microwave, coffee and espresso machines, a Nespresso machine, a toaster, and a dishwasher, plus practical additions like a cold room and an ice maker. A bar with stools extends onto the terrace, making service to the outdoors effortless. This covered terrace area provides additional lounge and dining space, a shaded intermediate zone where the trade winds naturally circulate. The villa’s facilities are comprehensive, including Wi-Fi throughout, a DVD player, and an iron and ironing board for convenience.

The outdoor experience is dominated by the 36.1 by 13.1 foot heated infinity pool. It is a long, reflective surface that appears to merge with the ocean beyond. A distinctive shallow section has built-in sun loungers, offering a unique spot to relax partially submerged while taking in the view. The front terrace surrounding the pool is furnished for sunbathing and contemplation, framed by those sculptural palm trees. For more shaded relaxation or evening gatherings, the rear terrace presents a different mood. Here, a dark gray stone wall, lush planting, and a built-in fireplace create a cozy enclave, complemented by a blue-tiled water feature and an area with artificial turf seating. A gas barbecue is provided for alfresco meals, allowing guests to dine with the vista as their backdrop.

A standout feature of Grace is its dedicated, well-appointed fitness room. Located on the lower level, this is a fully equipped space with panoramic ocean views. It is air-conditioned and contains an elliptical machine, a bike, a treadmill, and a multi-station gym bunch. A hydrojet medical machine, a fridge, a WC, and yoga mats are also provided, supporting a wide range of wellness routines without sacrificing the inspiring setting that defines the villa.

Grace occupies a prime position in the sought-after area of Anse des Cayes. The location offers both tranquility and accessibility, with a drive to the airport taking between ten and twenty minutes, and a 4x4 vehicle is not required for access. You are close to the amenities and vibrant beach of St. Jean, providing flexibility for dining out or shopping.
