St. Barts villas are in one of the most picturesque of all the Caribbean islands. The tiny island of St. Barts, also known as St. Barth, or St. Barthelemy, is only 10 minutes by air or 45 minutes by ferry from the neighboring island of St. Maarten/St. Martin. Most visitors to St. Barth arrive first to Juliana Airport in St. Maarten, then travel via plane or ferry to the main port of Gustavia in St. Barth. St. Barth is a
part of the French overseas department of Guadeloupe, and the local currency is the Euro and American dollar. French and English are widely spoken everywhere.
St. Barthelemy was believed to be discovered by
Christopher Columbus in 1493, and he named it in honor of his brother Bartolomeo.
The island was formed by ancient coral reefs, and is now a hilly terrain with panoramic vistas at every turn. Today, most of the island is surrounded by protective coral reefs that have formed dozens of lovely beaches and provide great snorkeling and diving opportunities
Water sports abound in St. Barts, from swimming and snorkeling, to jet skis, board sailing, deep sea fishing, and even the Yellow Submarine. Its all here. For those who are looking to just relax, St. Barth is just the place! With a year-round population of only about 7,000 residents, St. Barts is a quiet and genteel playground for vacationers seeking serenity, beauty, the warm sun, and sparkling seas. Take a picnic up to a hillside vista and enjoy the fresh ocean breeze off the wild coast of Grand Fond. Or, just lie in a shaded hammock on the the terrace of your fabulous St. Barts villa, and enjoy the day. There is plenty to do, and plenty not to do in laid-back St. Barts. In the evening, you can chose from a wide variety of fine or casual restaurants, visit a cafe on the harbor in Gustavia for cocktails and live music, or just enjoy your softly lit private pool deck and gaze at the stars with someone you love.
