For Couples
If your idea of luxury includes watching the sunset with your partner
from a private in nity pool, Villa Ixfalia is your dream escape.
Nestled on the verdant hillside above St. Jean, this elegant fourbedroom villa is a sanctuary of peace, privacy, and sweeping views of
the bay.
While secluded, it’s still just moments from the island’s world-class
restaurants, white-sand beaches, and iconic boutiques, so you’re never
too far from the action.
One of the best parts of Villa Ixfalia is that it balances modern amenities
with a warm Caribbean style. With features like Apple TV, a gourmet
kitchen, an alfresco dining terrace, and lush landscaping that shields
the villa from view, it’s tailor-made for couples looking to truly
disconnect and reconnect.
For Families and Larger Groups
Celebrating something special with a group? Villa My Way is the perfect
blend of sleek design, musical inspiration, and undeniable wow factor.

Located on the island’s northwestern coast, this architectural marvel is
named after Frank Sinatra’s iconic song, and you’ll nd the name
etched behind the kitchen stove in just one of many thoughtful details
that make this St. Barts luxury villa so memorable.
A black grand piano is at home in the airy living space if you’re feeling
musical, while expansive ocean views, a state-of-the-art kitchen, and
plush guest suites make it ideal for entertaining in true St. Barts style.
The Best Places to Eat
Once you have your St. Barts luxury villa, the next step is deciding
where to eat.
Despite the island’s laid-back approach, the locals take cuisine
seriously, and as soon as you arrive, your concierge will have arranged
for your kitchen to be fully stocked with ne French wines, local
cheeses, freshly baked bread, and everything else you need.
Prefer to eat out? Then you are in luck. There are over 100 fantastic
restaurants, cafes, and bakeries to choose from.

We always recommend a trip to Le Petit Colombe, where you will nd
the akiest pastries on the island. For a sun-soaked and chic lunch,
head to La Case de l’Isle. This is a standout spot any day of the week,
but their glamorous poolside fashion show every Tuesday is well worth
a visit. You can expect dishes showcasing fresh seafood, heirloom
vegetables, and French nesse, making a meal here a memorable
occasion.
Island Activities
There is no shortage of activities to enjoy during your stay on St Barts,
but relaxation is key, and the island is home to some of the best
beaches in the world. There are lots of wonderful choices, but some of
our favorites include:
Colombier Beach
Accessible only by boat or a scenic hike, this hidden cove is famously
serene and is perfect for snorkeling or a romantic picnic.
Flamands Beach
A beautiful stretch of sand with gentle surf in the summer and dramatic
waves in winter, Flamands Beach is a wonderful spot. We recommend
popping into La Langouste nearby for a beachfront lunch.
Petit Cul de Sac
This quiet bay is ideal for families and is protected by a coral reef,
allowing you to wade out and enjoy the calm waters.
St. Jean Beach
St. Jean Beach is the beating heart of island life and is split into two by
the iconic Eden Rock Hotel. A trip here is a must if you like
paddleboarding, swimming, and people-watching.

After a day of exploring the beach, take a stroll through the island’s
elegant capital city of Gustavia. This charming city features a range of
high-end fashion boutiques and stylish local labels, such as Lolita Jaca.

When It’s Time to Leave
The hardest part of any trip to St. Barts is saying goodbye, and as your
trip draws to a close, it’s only natural you’ll want to start planning your
return trip.
Due to the small size of the runway on the island, you’ll need to take a
ferry or short ight to St. Martin, where you can head onwards.
If you are taking the ferry, then we recommend grabbing a drink from
the Voyager Ferry Café and taking a seat on the upper deck. You’ll
enjoy some of the best views of the island as it slowly fades away.
