Description Toiny in Full Bloom: Au Vent

Perched on the heights of Toiny, this villa looks out over the bay and the deep-blue Caribbean from almost every angle – the pool terrace, the living room, the kitchen. Each bedroom opens onto a balcony fringed with palms, while a second tucked-away lounge at the rear offers shade and seclusion when you want to step back from the sun. Daily housekeeping and a full concierge service mean the practical side of the stay largely takes care of itself.

Home truths:
* You're on the heights of Toiny, away from the island's main villages and beaches, so you'll want to arrange a hire car to explore, eat out, or pick up supplies. Your concierge can help book one before you arrive.
* If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair.
* Housekeeping is provided daily except on Sundays and public holidays. Towels are swapped every two days and bed linen every three days.
* Also included with your stay is a personalised welcome at St-Jean Airport or Gustavia Port.
* There's a heated outdoor swimming pool here. Pool heating is available between 15th November and 30th April.
