Villa Ostra Strandgatan St Barts

The light is soft and golden, spilling across warm wooden floors. It catches the vibrant blue of the ceiling beams, painting the room in a serene, nautical glow. This is Ostra Strandgatan, a colorful apartment where the harbor view is your living artwork.

You’re not in a secluded villa, but in the heart of Gustavia itself. The space feels cozy and engaging, a personal retreat woven directly into the fabric of St. Barts’ most charming town. That view is the defining feature. It’s not just a glimpse; it’s a panoramic frame for the entrance to Gustavia’s harbor, the open ocean, and those legendary sunsets. Large windows and glass doors in the main living areas ensure the scene is always present, pulling the outside world into your intimate space. The layout is compact and efficient, a hallmark of a true Gustavia apartment. Living, dining, and kitchen areas flow together, united under that distinctive ceiling of exposed, painted beams. It’s a clever design that makes the space feel both open and wonderfully contained. Step into the main living area and look up. The architectural character is immediate and charming. Vaulted ceilings are defined by those bold blue and white painted beams, creating a sense of height and playful identity.

Light beige walls provide a calm backdrop, allowing the warm wood furniture and that vibrant blue accent to truly sing. A spacious layout offers comfortable seating oriented towards the view. You’ll find air conditioning, a fan, and mosquito nets here, ensuring comfort is never compromised. This is your front-row seat to the harbor’s daily ballet. Glass doors open to a terrace, extending your living space outward. Adjacent, the dining area shares the same captivating vista. A honey-brown wooden table and chairs sit beneath the continuation of the blue-beamed ceiling. A built-in wooden cabinet with glass doors offers a spot to display dinnerware, adding a touch of curated personality. This space feels connected to both the living area and the kitchen, facilitating easy movement whether you’re serving a meal or simply pouring another glass of wine as you watch the sunset. The kitchen is a surprise of color and function. Warm wooden cabinetry is topped with a distinctive multicolored tile backsplash in shades of blue, yellow, and green.

It’s a joyful, artistic detail that embodies the apartment’s character. This is a fully equipped space for preparing anything from a morning espresso to a full dinner. You’ll find a microwave, a toaster, a blender, and a dishwasher for convenience. For coffee lovers, there’s both a coffee machine and a dedicated Nespresso espresso machine. Like the rest of the home, it’s fitted with air conditioning, a fan, and mosquito nets. Your outdoor space is an extension of the living room, a furnished terrace that places you directly in the scene. This is where you’ll experience those exceptional sunset views that make Ostra Strandgatan stand out. There’s no need for a private pool when you have a front-row seat to the harbor’s golden hour. You can hear the gentle sounds of the town below, smell the salt air, and watch as the day’s last light reflects off the water and the white buildings of Gustavia.

It’s an urban balcony with a world-class vista for alfresco dining or evening cocktails under the stars. The two bedrooms continue the apartment’s warm and colorful narrative. Each is a private haven equipped with air conditioning, a fan, mosquito nets, and a safe for your valuables. Both feature en-suite bathrooms with showers, ensuring complete privacy and convenience. Bedroom 1 claims the premier vista. It offers a queen-size bed (5.91 × 6.56) and a direct ocean view, framed by its own large window. The room is anchored by rich, polished wooden flooring. Look up, and the signature blue and white painted ceiling beams are here too, tying the design together. A warm-toned wooden cabinet with woven fronts adds texture and practical storage. This room is about the connection to the sea and the sky, a peaceful retreat where you can wake up to the sight of boats on the horizon. Bedroom 2 provides a cozy, inward-facing sanctuary.

It features an identical queen-size bed (5.91 × 6.56) and opens to a terrace view. The palette here is soothing, with a vibrant blue bedspread offering a pop of color against the neutral walls and warm wood. It’s a quiet, comfortable space that feels removed from the world. The en-suite bathroom is functional and includes a thoughtful decorative touch with a blue mosaic tile border. Both bathrooms are practical, with one featuring a decorative blue mosaic border and a translucent glass block wall, adding a subtle, artistic flair. For entertainment and convenience, Ostra Strandgatan is well-appointed. You’ll stay connected with Wi-Fi and have a choice of viewing options with a TV offering both French and US satellite channels. There’s a CD player for those who bring their own music. Practicalities like an iron and ironing board are also provided. The location is Ostra Strandgatan’s other great advantage. You are situated in Gustavia, a mere 10 to 20 minutes from the airport, and no 4x4 vehicle is required to access the property.

You can walk to everything. As confirmed by the supplier, you will be able to stroll to all the shops, restaurants, and bars that make Gustavia so delightful. You’re also within walking distance of Shell Beach, a unique cove of small shell fragments perfect for a quick swim or sunbathing session. This inviting Gustavia apartment is presented by Premium Island Vacations, a curator of distinctive Caribbean properties for over 20 years.

Ostra Strandgatan offers a different kind of luxury—one of location, character, and view. It’s for travelers who want to be in the heart of the action, who find beauty in colorful details and panoramic harborscapes, and who understand that the best sunset seat on the island might just be from your own living room.
