Perched in Pointe Milou, this villa is built around a single, irresistible idea – the Caribbean laid out before you at every turn. The living room opens completely to the deck and pool, so the boundary between inside and out barely exists. The panoramas are no doubt the highlight, especially as evening falls and the bay lights flicker on like a slow reveal. Both bedrooms share that same outlook, with teak canopy beds framed by the tropical garden through the windows. Daily housekeeping means the only real decision is how long to stay in the water before heading down to Lorient Bay's calm, turquoise shore.
