Description Island After Hours: Au Vent

Perched on the heights of St-Jean, this villa sits above Saint-Barthélemy's bay with Caribbean views that unfold from nearly every room. The centrepiece is a heated infinity pool that appears to pour straight into the ocean horizon – long enough to take seriously as a lap pool, dramatic enough that you'll rarely want to leave the terrace. Evenings shift naturally to the alfresco dining area, wrapped in tropical vegetation and open to the trade winds. Six air-conditioned suites with marble and mosaic finishes, whirlpool tubs, and terrace access bring a quiet luxury to the nights, while a disco room, bar, and entertainment space mean late evenings need never move far.
