Description
Perched on the left hillside of Gustavia’s harbor, Villa Hippocampe is a bright and elegant four-bedroom retreat that seamlessly blends authentic Caribbean charm with contemporary comfort. Spread across two levels, the villa offers a spacious layout ideal for groups, balancing generous shared living areas with the privacy of thoughtfully separated bedrooms.
Behind its signature white shutters, the interior reveals high ceilings, soft coastal tones, and refined details that create a warm, breezy ambiance. Local Caribbean artwork adds vibrancy and a sense of place throughout. The main living area, located on the upper level, opens onto a terrace perfectly positioned to take in the postcard-worthy views of the harbor. A fully equipped, open-concept kitchen—enhanced by a practical secondary prep area and a wine fridge—connects seamlessly to both indoor and outdoor dining spaces, allowing guests to enjoy meals in cool comfort or under the evening glow of Gustavia’s twinkling lights.
The primary bedroom is also situated on this level, offering soothing views of the port, direct access to the terrace, and an elegant ensuite bathroom. The remaining three bedrooms are located on the lower level: two beside the pool and a third slightly set apart to ensure extra seclusion. Each bedroom is designed for restorative island living, featuring a king-size bed, ensuite bathroom, dressing area, air conditioning, Sonos sound system, and a TV. Two of the rooms also enjoy a serene sea view.
The outdoor spaces invite true relaxation. A long, heated pool stretches along the terrace, bordered by sun loungers and lush tropical greenery that provide privacy and a tranquil atmosphere. A covered dining area, outdoor kitchenette, gas BBQ, and guest restroom make it effortless to enjoy life outside—whether for sun-soaked lunches, sunset aperitifs, or quiet mornings beside the pool.
Combining high-end finishes with direct access to the vibrant heart of Gustavia, Villa Hippocampe offers a rare balance of elegance and ease. With its harbor views, generous living spaces, and peaceful atmosphere, it is the perfect haven for experiencing St. Barth at your own rhythm.
