Honored and grateful....

We are honored to have been featured in the Hors Series Edition of Maison et Jardin. The article captures so well the spirit of our villa and the beauty of St Barth. If you needed to be convinced to visit St Barth, look no more...

Since the article is written in French, I translated it in English for all of our English speaking friends... Enjoy it!

FACING THE SEA,

in complete privacy

In Pointe Milou, on the heights of Saint Barthélemy, a refined villa opens onto one of the island's most beautiful horizons.

From the moment you step into Villa Pointe Milou, you are enveloped by a rare sensation. The feeling of having finally found the place to settle down, far from the hustle and bustle, close to the essential: the horizon. Here, Saint Barth reveals itself in all its splendor, from a terrace suspended between sky and sea, where every sunset seems to have been painted just for you.

Nestled on a hillside, Villa Pointe Milou offers a subtle balance between discreet refinement and island living. It is a secret address, born of love at first sight: that of Vanina, a French woman living in New York, and her American husband, Philip, who fell in love with the island on their first visit in 2000. Fifteen years later, their dream came true with the purchase of this villa, which they set about reinventing. Meticulously orchestrated off-season renovations, resilience in the wake of Hurricane Irma, collaboration with architects François Pécard and Dominique Routier...

The story of the villa is one of patiently cultivated passion. Open for seasonal rentals since 2018, it now attracts travelers in search of something exceptional.

Clean lines, airy spaces, and noble materials: the architecture lets the light in and magnifies the panorama. As for the decor, it reflects Vanina's inspirations, drawn from New York showrooms but designed for absolute comfort. Furniture with a simple yet elegant design, attention to detail, and tasteful, unostentatious style. The atmosphere is warm, harmonious, and personal. Vanina is also an artist: her paintings, inspired by the landscapes of Saint Barth, adorn the walls of the villa. She also gives each guest a small gift, a carefully chosen souvenir. She also collaborates with the Territorial Environment Agency (ATE), proof of her sincere investment in local life and her deep attachment to Saint Barth.

The villa has four air-conditioned bedrooms with bathrooms and sea views, all identical in their comfort and elegance. Three are located on the main floor, two of which can be connected: an ideal configuration for families, without ever sacrificing privacy. The fourth, below, opens onto a private terrace. The villa also houses a fully equipped gym.

The heart of the villa beats outside: a 12.5-meter heated infinity pool that blends into the ocean, a barbecue... And above all, the view. Dazzling, immersive, enveloping. From the terrace, shaded or bathed in sunlight, the eye takes in a spectacular view of the islands of Saint Martin and Anguilla. Day and night, it redefines the concept of luxury: experiencing the landscape and being part of the environment. Just five minutes from the Christopher Hotel, renowned for its exceptional spa and restaurant, the villa offers a feeling of complete seclusion, far from the world yet close to everything.

Karine Barnes, the owners' right-hand woman for twenty years, is your dedicated contact from the moment you arrive on the island. A connoisseur of the villa and its every secret, she will ensure that your stay runs smoothly, with the same high standards and attention to detail as if she were there herself. A housekeeper provides daily cleaning (except Sundays and public holidays), and on request, the services of a chef, masseur, or yoga teacher can be arranged. Guests also benefit from the owners' valuable recommendations: an unforgettable massage by Cécile, festive or more intimate dinners, authentic experiences or refined stopovers.

More than just a rental, it is a promise. A promise of sincere, inspired, and generous luxury. An invitation to slow down, savor, and contemplate.
