Villa Hippocampe invites you to a serene escape, blending modern comfort with Caribbean charm in the heart of Gustavia.
New construction designed by architect François Pécard, the property blends naturally into its surroundings. Spread across two levels, it features shingle roofs, white cladding, and custom woodwork, with details reflecting the island’s traditional architecture.
As soon as you enter, a vast and bright living space unfolds, bringing together an open living area, dining area, and fully equipped kitchen. Light tones, natural materials, and decorative touches inspired by the island’s colors create an elegant and welcoming atmosphere. Large openings lead onto a covered terrace that offers a breathtaking view of the harbor, where yachts and boats gently rest at anchor.
The master bedroom, located next to the living room, enjoys direct access to the covered terrace. It features a spacious walk-in closet and a private en-suite bathroom.
A staircase leads to the lower level, which hosts four additional bedrooms, all offering the same level of comfort, as well as a second terrace with a large pool overlooking the view. Shaded lounges, reading corners, and dining areas provide ideal spaces for relaxing, whatever the mood.
A rare feature completes the property. A wheelchair lift connects the two levels and ensures full accessibility for people with reduced mobility.
Only a few minutes’ walk from shops, restaurants, and Shell Beach, Villa Hippocampe offers the perfect setting to fully embrace the St Barts lifestyle.

Gustavia is a lively place in the heart of beauty, the French art of living where the best restaurants excite the most discerning palates, even when on the beach with your feet in the water.
