Krystel overlooks all of Saint Jean Bay from its elevated perch in the Lurin hillside. This chic, understated villa is ideal for vacations with friends or older families.

The infinity-edge pool juts out over the hillside. Loungers and a canopied daybed furnish the sundeck, and unique statues stand guard on either side. Folding doors open to the living room, which has an area for lounging and an area for watching movies on the flatscreen TV. There are two dining tables, so guests can eat in the living room or in the open-air courtyard. The kitchen’s dark wooden cabinets and stainless steel appliances add a modern touch, and the wine cellar ensures every meal has the perfect complimentary drink. Krystel also has its own home gym, WiFi, U.S. and French satellite, and an iron and ironing board. Each of the four bedrooms has a queen bed, an ensuite bathroom, and exterior access only. The bedrooms are each in their own bungalow around the main house.

Krystel is five minutes away from Gustavia, which means that restaurants, shops, and the airport are all within a short drive. A housekeeper maintains the villa six days per week, so guests don’t have to lift a finger.
