Description Colombier Contemporary: Sous le Vent

Perched on a hillside in Colombier, this villa looks straight out over Flamands Bay and the Caribbean – a view that greets you from the living room, the terrace, and each of the six bedrooms. The heated infinity pool on the front terrace makes it easy to lose an afternoon, while a Jacuzzi tucked among palms and tropical gardens on the lower level offers a quieter retreat. Alfresco dining flows naturally from the kitchen, with the ocean spread wide in front of you. A concierge handles the logistics – from airport arrival to restaurant reservations – and daily housekeeping is included, so there's little left to organise.

Home truths:
* Colombier is one of St. Barths' most secluded hillside areas. You'll want to hire a car to reach the beaches, restaurants, and shops in Gustavia or St-Jean.
* Your host can provide a cot and high chair for little ones upon request.
* 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.
