Villa Tourmaline St Barts

Tourmaline: Serene Lagoon View in Grand Cul de Sac

Villa Tourmaline looks out over the tranquil, shallow waters of the Grand Cul de Sac lagoon. The view is a serene expanse of blue, framed by the lush, green hills of the island, creating a peaceful and immersive panorama that defines the entire property. This connection to the lagoon is the villa’s visual anchor, a presence from the main living areas, the bedrooms, and from the edge of the long infinity pool.

Architecturally, the villa is defined by a sense of voluminous space and natural texture. The main living pavilion features a high, open ceiling supported by exposed dark timber beams and rafters, creating an airy and grand central area. A palette of warm beige walls, white linens, and cream upholstery is accented throughout by these rich, dark wood tones. Spatial flow is handled through indoor-outdoor connections. On multiple sides of the main living area, expansive floor-to-ceiling sliding doors open completely, merging the interior with the broad covered terrace.

The three-bedroom configuration of Villa Tourmaline is designed for a balance of community and privacy. Two guest suites are situated just off the main terrace, mere steps from the pool. These interconnected bedrooms each feature king-size beds, ensuite bathrooms, and furnished terraces with views oriented toward the sea and lagoon. Finished in calm, natural tones, they provide convenient and comfortable accommodations. The primary suite is the villa’s private retreat. It occupies a separate, detached bungalow on a lower level, accessible by its own staircase. This arrangement guarantees complete privacy. The suite features a king-size bed and an ensuite bathroom, and it opens onto a large, private furnished terrace that delivers uninterrupted views over the Grand Cul de Sac lagoon. The separation from the main house allows for complete privacy.

This bright, open-plan living area includes a comfortable lounge, which can be sealed off and cooled by the villa's climate control system. A unique, rustic coffee table made from a cross-section of a tree trunk sits as a natural centerpiece. The sleek, equipped kitchen includes a bar with stools, topped by the soft glow of large, cylindrical woven pendant lights that also hang over the indoor dining space.

The villa’s focal point is its expansive, 16-meter heated infinity pool. It is a striking feature that commands the outdoor space, its elongated form stretching along the wooden deck to create a visual merge with the lagoon beyond. Lined with comfortable sun loungers, this pool area is designed for extended relaxation, offering both full sun and shaded corners. The heated water ensures comfort is constant, extending the pool’s usability into the cooler evening hours. Beyond the pool, the wooden decking extends to various gathering spots. Beneath the covered terrace, a dining space for eight is set for open-air meals, animated by a bold, large-scale floral wallpaper feature. An outdoor lounge area provides a spot for evening cocktails. Tucked into the garden, under the shade of a Gaiac tree, an outdoor fireplace creates a corner for gathering as the stars come out. An outdoor shower offers a refreshing rinse after a swim. Villa Tourmaline is located within the exclusive Issayah domaine in Grand Cul de Sac, accessed via a distinctive golden gate that marks the entrance to the estate.

For active guests, a shared fitness room is located within the Issayah domaine, accessible via a staircase below the terrace.

The area is known for its calm, shallow lagoon and is a short drive from several beachfront restaurants. The villa’s position offers a quiet, nature-immersed environment while remaining conveniently accessible; Gustaf III Airport is approximately a 10 to 20-minute drive away, and a 4x4 vehicle is not required for access. As part of the Issayah estate, Villa Tourmaline offers an advantage for larger groups. For larger parties, this villa is available to book in conjunction with the adjacent three-bedroom properties: Larimar, Lazuli, and Quartz. This combination creates a multi-villa compound with a total of 14 bedrooms and four pools, ideal for extended families or groups of friends seeking both togetherness and individual villa privacy. Villa Tourmaline presents an option among St. Barts luxury villas, combining a serene lagoon view, a standout 16-meter heated pool, and a thoughtful layout that guarantees privacy.
