Villa Bijou St Barts

Villa Bijou: Private Bungalows in Flamands

Villa Bijou provides a two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout with a heated pool, expansive ocean-view terraces, and a fully-equipped kitchen. Its defining feature is a private, separate-bungalow design that places each bedroom in its own independent structure, a layout crafted for two couples traveling together.

The outdoor area is centered around a heated swimming pool measuring 16.4 by 9.8 feet, complete with built-in steps for easy access. White pillars and beams structure this space, creating a gallery-like frame for the view over Flamands Beach and the distant islands. A unique triangular roof opening above part of the pool deck enhances the feeling of connection to the sky. Inside, the living room establishes the villa’s bright and clean-lined aesthetic. Vaulted ceilings with exposed white-painted wooden beams create volume and an airy feel. The space opens directly onto the pool deck through expansive arched openings, ensuring the ocean view and breezes are part of the experience.

The bedroom configuration at Villa Bijou is its most notable advantage, offering genuine privacy through a separate-bungalow design. Bedroom 1 is a master suite housed in its own independent bungalow. It is furnished with a king-size bed and includes air conditioning, a fan, a mosquito net, and a safe. The room opens directly to a private, partially covered terrace with ocean views. Its en-suite bathroom is equipped with a shower, and the space is noted for being particularly spacious with a dual-vanity and a dressing area that includes two windows and two skylights. This layout confirms it as the primary suite, offering a secluded retreat. Bedroom 2 provides flexible sleeping arrangements in a queen-size bed that can be configured as two twin beds upon request. This room also features air conditioning, a fan, a mosquito net, and direct access to its own private terrace overlooking the ocean. It has its own en-suite bathroom with a shower. While attached to the main living pavilion, it is accessed from the terraces, maintaining a sense of separation and privacy that complements the overall layout for two couples or a small family.

The living room furnishings include comfortable sofas and rattan-style armchairs, with splashes of color from vibrant cushions and curated artwork on the walls. Amenities here include a fan, a Sonos sound system for whole-villa audio, an iPod dock, and satellite television via Dish Network. The adjoining kitchen is fully equipped for preparing anything from casual lunches to gourmet dinners. It features granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and a suite of appliances including a microwave, a Nespresso machine, a traditional espresso machine, a coffee maker, a toaster, a blender, and a dishwasher. The kitchen’s layout is particularly practical, as it opens to two distinct outdoor areas: one side connects to the front pool deck and ocean view, while the other opens to the rear garden and its covered terrace.

A spacious wooden deck surrounds the pool, lined with sun loungers for soaking up the Caribbean sun while gazing at the ocean vista. For dining, a long wooden table sits on a covered terrace beneath a large woven pendant light, featuring a built-in bench with patterned cushions. A gas barbecue is provided for grilling. The layout includes a second covered terrace at the rear of the villa, sheltered from the wind and surrounded by tropical vegetation, offering an alternative lounge or dining area.

Villa Bijou is located in the Flamands area of St. Barts, positioned on a hillside for peaceful, elevated ocean views. The drive from the airport takes between 10 and 20 minutes, and a 4x4 vehicle is not required for access. Flamands Beach, a beautiful crescent of sand, is just a few minutes away by car. The capital of Gustavia, with its restaurants and shopping, is approximately a five to ten-minute drive. This villa represents a mid-range option in the St. Barts villa rentals market, combining practical amenities with a thoughtful, privacy-oriented layout. For over 20 years, Premium Island Vacations has connected travelers with properties that offer authentic comfort and design. Villa Bijou, with its heated pool, separate bungalows, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, is a clear example of that commitment.
