Villa Isla St Barts

Villa Isla looks out over the Bay of Marigot. The upper level of this modern five-bedroom villa captures lovely sea views, framing the tranquil water and sky in a serene panorama. This vista defines the atmosphere here, one of relaxed calm on the quieter side of the island.

The visual character is harmoniously balanced, with dark vertical wood slats on the exterior creating a striking contrast against the lush greenery and light walls. This architectural statement defines a space dedicated to fluid indoor-outdoor living and luminous natural light, positioning Villa Isla distinctly within the collection of St. Barts luxury villas that prioritize both view and flow. That connection is most immediate in the gracious living area on the terrace level. It is an extended, free-flowing space where the boundaries between inside and out dissolve through large glass doors.

A generous seating area is arranged for conversation, adorned with soft but vivid color accents, think teal, blue, and yellow cushions against a neutral base of beige and soft gray textiles. In the center of the room, a long wooden dining table with a natural finish anchors the space, illuminated from above by large, woven pendant lights that add rustic charm. Anchoring the far end of the room, the kitchen is delineated from the dining area by a welcoming bar counter suited for casual conversation. It is a large, well-equipped kitchen featuring a substantial island with a wooden countertop that extends warmth into the room. Comprehensive appliances include an oven, microwave, toaster, espresso machine, a separate freezer, a dishwasher, a coffee maker, a juicer, a blender, and a full refrigerator. The decoration throughout is intriguing without being overwhelming, filled with natural materials and a thoughtful mix of textures from woven baskets to smooth tiles, all very well maintained.

Commanding the upper floor's other wing, the master suite holds the most privileged placement in Villa Isla's design. It features a European king-size bed and opens directly onto the sundeck and pool terrace, ensuring those sea views are a private morning spectacle. This bedroom benefits from a large dressing room, providing ample personal storage space. Its ensuite bathroom continues the villa’s material theme, showcasing a contrast of cool white tiles against warm wooden vanities. Positioned on the main living level, the master suite provides convenient access to the shared areas while maintaining its own quiet, private character, a considered balance central to the villa’s design. A contemporary grand staircase descends to the lower residential level, where four further bedrooms are situated. Every bedroom offers a serene, personal retreat, complete with a private bathroom and a step-out patio for fresh air. Each features climate control and a comprehensive selection of in-room entertainment.

The first lower-level bedroom includes a European king-size bed and features a sloped ceiling with exposed wooden beams, adding architectural character and a sense of cozy volume. Its bathroom introduces a striking design moment with a mosaic-tiled wall in shades of gray and black. The second bedroom also offers a European king-size bed and patio access, with its bathroom continuing the clean, contemporary aesthetic with subway tiles and wooden accents. Similarly, the third and fourth bedrooms each provide a European king-size bed, an ensuite bathroom, and direct patio access, ensuring every guest has a personal external connection. The main entrance to Villa Isla is situated conveniently on this lower bedroom level. Outdoors, the heated swimming pool serves as the focal point for relaxation and socializing. The sundeck and shaded terrace surrounding it are furnished for all-day enjoyment, from morning coffee to evening gatherings. The space is equipped with a plancha grill for outdoor cooking, an outdoor sound system for setting the mood, and convenient WiFi coverage.

A half bath on the terrace adds practicality. For privacy and security, access is managed via a coded entrance gate. This outdoor area, where the living room and master suite converge, is designed for that effortless Caribbean lifestyle, a fluid extension of the home’s interior comfort. Villa Isla’s location in Marigot places it above the bay, in a peaceful setting that feels removed yet remains conveniently connected. The villa enjoys proximity to distinguished local establishments such as the hotels Le Guanahani and Le Sereno, as well as the restaurant Le Rivage. The airport is approximately a 10 to 20-minute drive away, and the route does not require a 4x4 vehicle.

This balance of quiet seclusion and accessibility is a key part of its appeal. The villa welcomes both children and pets, making it a versatile option for larger families or groups of friends seeking a shared refuge. With its five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and emphasis on harmonious, luminous design, Villa Isla represents a specific kind of St. Barths living, one that is modern, relaxed, and visually cohesive. For over 20 years, Premium Island Vacations has been connecting guests with properties that embody this authentic sense of place, and Villa Isla in Marigot is a clear example of that curated standard.
