BLANC BLEU

In its short life as one of St Barts newest rental villas, Maison Blanc Bleu has quickly become a firm favourite with some of St Bart's trendiest and most seasoned visitors. Its perfect mix of modern and traditional Caribbean has an appeal to the renter in search of both the stylish and the authentic Caribbean.

With six bedrooms, this is a villa to rent for a special occasion. Situated in a very quiet area of St Barts, with a sweeping ocean view over the neighbouring islands from St Kitt's to Saba, Villa Maison Blanc Bleu has a distinct marine flavour, decorated in white and navy blue, with features in driftwood and ship's brass, all of the highest possible quality.

It has the sleekest sociable kitchen you'll ever see, in a convivial living area with spectacular ocean view, and a separate TV room with all mod cons.

Villa Maison Blanc Bleu is a veritable playground for both adults and children, with a trampoline, half-size tennis court, al fresco yoga platform and pick-your-own fruit trees all set in a beautifully illuminated and landscaped mature tropical garden, and a state of the art gym room with built-in screens on each piece of equipment. Even the huge covered terrace with its 14-place dining table can convert to an exterior cinema, with a pull-down screen

The entire upper level is dedicated to the huge master suite, with wraparound terrace, inside and outside lounge areas, and exceptional privacy. The five other bedrooms offer guests the choice of twin, double, exterior shower, or private entrance. All are situated around the huge pool terrace overlooking the ocean and shaded by palm trees.

A mere 5-minute drive from both Gustavia, the island's vibrant capital, and the popular village of St Jean with the island's favourite beach, chic boutiques and world-class restaurants such as the Nikki Beach and the Eden Rock Hotel, Villa Blanc Bleu offers unusual seclusion within easy reach of the famous St Barts lifestyle.
