Villa Azalea

On the heights of Saint-Jean, just minutes from the beach, Villa Azalea takes in the bay and its turquoise waters as well as the wooded hills. At once authentic and modern, it is made for life between indoors and out: beneath the covered part of the terrace, a lounge in white and grey shelters under a high vaulted ceiling, beside a table for eight. The kitchen, set indoors, is complemented by a breakfast bar. On the tiled deck, the pool is surrounded by sun loungers, and a pergola offers shade to those who seek it. The four air-conditioned bedrooms, with king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms, sleep eight; three are on the main level, while the fourth, set below, feels like an independent studio. Pets are welcome, for a stay with family or friends at the island's pace.
