La Bella Casain Terres Basses, St Martin

La Bella Casa boasts breathtaking views of the elegant La Samanna Hotel, Baie Longue Beach, and the stunning blue Caribbean Sea, providing dazzling vistas from morning until night. The sunsets here are particularly enchanting, casting the sky in vibrant hues of hot pink and orange, creating a picturesque backdrop for evening cocktails. With 12 bedrooms, this villa is an ideal venue for large families, groups of friends, or weddings. Despite its spaciousness, it maintains an intimate and tranquil atmosphere throughout.

The decor at La Bella Casa is an exotic blend of Indonesian and French styles. Neutral tones of white and cream are enlivened by vibrant accents in each room while soft grey tiles extend throughout the villa. The exterior terraces and covered verandahs feature modern furnishings and offer numerous areas for relaxation and dining. A ping pong table is situated under one of the verandahs for added fun. Arches and ironwork throughout the villa add a touch of design elegance and grandeur.

The great room inside is spacious and casually elegant, making it perfect for gatherings. Sliding glass pocket doors open up the space to the views and breezes. The new contemporary furniture in the living room incorporates the colors of the sea and sky, harmonizing with the rest of the interior decor. Soaring ceilings with blue trim—a recurring design theme throughout the villa—enhance the aesthetic. The charming French Country kitchen, adorned with blue and white Provence tiles, features a stunning French stove and offers beautiful views. A barbecue is conveniently located just off the kitchen.

The main house contains seven bedrooms, each with private outdoor seating areas offering either garden or ocean views. The decor in each room blends Provence colors and fabrics, featuring white with accents of blue, yellow, or red. Many rooms have romantic four-poster beds. Each en-suite bathroom is adorned with the iconic Provence tiles found in many Terres Basses villas, with several offering ocean or garden views from the walk-in showers. A very large suite on the lower level serves as a tranquil oasis with its own expansive terrace and indoor and outdoor seating areas.

Additionally, there are two bedrooms in a private, self-contained cottage with its own pool. Another private cottage, just steps from the main house, features two brand new ocean-view bedrooms. A studio apartment below the main house offers a queen-size bed, a private living area, and a kitchenette. The villa also includes a fitness room.

La Bella Casa is conveniently located near Baie Nettle, known for its excellent food scene, just a few minutes' drive away. It is only an 8-minute drive to Marigot, the French capital, with its shops, restaurants, markets, and galleries.
