Perched above Pointe Milou with the Caribbean spread out from Lorient to Anguilla, this five-bedroom villa is built around one of the most arresting outlooks in Saint-Barthélemy. The heated infinity pool catches the last of the evening light, and the alfresco dining terrace with barbecue makes it easy to linger well past sunset. Inside, the living room frames the ocean wall-to-wall, while the main bedroom bungalow – set slightly apart for privacy – keeps those views front and centre. Daily housekeeping, a concierge, and on-request staff from private chefs to yoga teachers mean you can arrive and simply unwind.
