Villa Shell Beach

Almost within touching distance of one of the most unique beaches on Saint Barth, Villa Shell Beach charms guests time and time again with its stunning design, generous terrace and gorgeous sea views. The definition of modern Caribbean luxury, interior designer Karine Bruneel has spared no effort in making this villa a sanctuary of contemporary comfort and minimalist chic, from the two ensuite bedrooms to the open-plan living and fully-equipped kitchen. Step through one of the many sliding glass doors, which invite natural light and the fresh sea breeze into the villa’s interior, and you’ll find yourself on a large, private terrace, lined with tropical greenery. Spend the afternoons lounging in the swimming pool, or sipping a cocktail as you recline on a sun lounger as you watch the sea glisten below you.

Bedrooms: The first thing you’ll hear each day is the sound of the waves on Shell Beach calling you round from your dreams. As you open your eyes, you’ll find yourself encased in crisp linens on a luxurious king-sized bed in one of Villa Shell Beach’s two double bedrooms, refreshed by the cool air from the air-conditioner. Your room is designed in a bright, modern style, which exudes a playful Caribbean ambience. After a shower in your ensuite bathroom, pull back the curtains that cover the sliding glass doors onto the terrace, and step right from your bedroom into the warm Saint Barth sunshine.

Outdoors: Lush with tropical plants and boasting stunning views of Gustavia Harbour, the terrace at Villa Shell Beach allows you to enjoy the gorgeous weather and natural beauty of Saint Barth without even stepping out of your front door.

As the sun begins to set, there’s no need to head inside and miss the brilliant colours dancing across the sky. Prepare dinner on the gas barbecue, and enjoy this grilled feast around the al fresco dining tableoverlooking the town.
