Villa Escapade St Barts.  Tucked into the lush and verdant hills of the Marigot area of St. Barts, the three-bedroom Villa Escapade is a short walk to the beach and yet offers a long list of desirable amenities in a private and tranquil setting.

Spacious and elegant, it features many outdoor living spaces ideal for hours of sunbathing, star gazing or sunset and sunrise viewings. You might want to experience them all from the delightful pool terrace. The pool gazes out towards the sea views and it is flanked at one end by a large sun deck that features a small grove of palms, a lounging gazebo, and variety of sun beds. There is also a covered terrace along one edge of the pool, and here you can enjoy meals at the al fresco dining area or the lounging spots. At the rear of the villa are lovely features that include a fountain, sculptures and shaded areas to relax and lounge.

Step through the classic, colonial-style shuttered doors and you enter the lovely great room. With its traditional, high white painted ceilings and cool terrazzo floors, it is a wonderful retreat from the sun. Decorated in a palette of white and mahogany hues, it features a welcoming lounge with entertainment system and separate reading niche, a dining area, and the large gourmet kitchen. Done in stainless and sand, it offers the very best appliances and gear to help make the preparation of meals and snacks a delight.

The shared spaces are appealing, but when the day is done there are the three premium bedrooms. These include two king suites on the upper level and a dual twin suite on the lower level beneath the terrace. The upper bedrooms feature premium entertainment systems, four-poster or netted beds, and large ensuite bathrooms. The lower suite features the two beds and a large, private terrace in the garden.

Ideal for a family but also for a set of discerning fellow travelers, the Villa Escapade is a perfect escape.
