Villa My Way St Barts

My Way: Retro-Glam Panorama in Colombier

The first notes are visual. You ascend a staircase designed like piano keys, stepping into a space of cool slate floors and expansive walls of glass. Bright air and clean lines are complemented by a sweeping panorama that encompasses Flamands Bay and far-off islands.

This is the sleek, retro-glam stage of Villa My Way, a modern canvas where a black-lacquered grand piano and a vibrant yellow dining table become the focal points of a view that stretches to the horizon. It is a composition of monochrome and color, of mid-century nostalgia and contemporary luxury, all orchestrated around those exceptional sunset views over the Caribbean. That sense of curated performance defines the living spaces. Beneath a sculptural lamp from the midcentury era, the grand piano shines as a focal point, flanked by low-profile furniture and iconic Corbusier chairs. The white walls display portraits of Frank Sinatra, while the kitchen's backsplash is inscribed with a lyric from “My Way,” a final thematic touch. This large, air-conditioned lounge is dedicated to music and cinema, equipped with a Sonos sound system for setting the mood. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors disappear into the walls, erasing the boundary between the cool interior and the covered terrace. A whimsical architectural detail: a window set into the main pool wall gives you a glimpse into the azure water from the interior staircase, a playful connection between the villa’s levels.

Privacy and comfort define the five bedroom suites. Each offers a queen-sized bed, air conditioning, a safe, and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. They are configured for independence, with private entrances ensuring quiet for all. The primary suite, Bedroom 1, captures the ocean view and is equipped with a fan, a TV offering both French and US satellite channels, and Apple TV with Dish and Canal+ access. Its retractable TV emerges discreetly, and the room is bathed in light from the glass walls. Bedroom 2 also features a fan, a queen bed, and an ocean view, with a TV and Apple TV for private viewing. Bedroom 3 mirrors this layout with its own fan, ocean aspect, and entertainment setup. Bedrooms 4 and 5, located on the lower level for added seclusion, provide queen beds, safes, and TVs with US satellite and Apple TV, each enjoying peaceful privacy. Throughout, you will find thoughtful pops of color—perhaps an orange accent wall or vibrant linens—against the soothing white and gray palette.

The open kitchen is a professional’s domain, featuring a full suite of appliances including a microwave, espresso machine, and blender. You will find a wine cellar, a Nespresso machine, and a practical walk-in cold room here. A remote-controlled screen can close off the kitchen for privacy, or you can leave it open to the flow of conversation. Just outside, under the cover of the terrace, awaits the iconic “Yellow Lego” table—a massive canary-yellow design that seats up to eighteen guests for long, laughter-filled meals with the view as your backdrop. For entertainment, the villa offers Wi-Fi throughout, DVD and CD players, and multiple satellite options. Practicalities like an iron and ironing board are provided.

Outside, the horizontal lines of the architecture draw your eye straight to the water. Spanning the full length of the wooden terrace, a 17-meter heated pool with an infinity edge dissolves visually into the ocean and sky. Days can be passed alternating between refreshing swims, floating on a submerged chaise, or relaxing on the radiant deck. A separate Jacuzzi offers another vantage point for soaking in the panorama. For sunset drinks, a spacious and plush vintage-style sofa is oriented toward the sea, with a gas barbecue nearby for effortless outdoor dining. This outdoor expanse is the villa’s true theater, designed for sunbathing, swimming, and watching the day’s final, brilliant act as the sun dips below the offshore islands. A large covered parking area accommodates your vehicles.

On the lower level, the ocean-facing fitness room reinforces the villa’s commitment to luxury living. It is a fully equipped space with an elliptical trainer, an RPM bike, a weight bench, and free weights, all arranged before floor-to-ceiling mirrors that reflect the endless blue view outside.

My Way is situated on the Colombier hillside, placing you in a serene residential area known for its vistas. The villa is a 10 to 20-minute drive from the airport, and a standard car is suitable for access. You are a short drive from the sands of Flamands and Corossol beaches, and about ten minutes from the restaurants and boutiques of Gustavia. For over 20 years, Premium Island Vacations has connected travelers with exceptional properties like this one, a standout among St. Barts luxury villas where style, space, and sunset views are composed entirely your way.
