Manoir De Lorientin Lorient, St Barts

Discover an extraordinary retreat in the charming village of Lorient, where a piece of history gracefully meets Caribbean allure. The centrepiece of this magnificent estate is an authentic 18th-century French manor from Normandy, painstakingly dismantled and transported to Saint-Barths in the 1980s. Now elegantly reassembled, this grand residence stands mere steps from the pristine Lorient beach, offering an unparalleled setting for up to fourteen guests seeking a distinguished island escape.

Spanning multiple artfully arranged pavilions and bungalows, this expansive estate is unified by a serene mirror pool, reflecting the lush tropical surroundings. Recently reimagined by its new owners, the interiors exude a refined contemporary elegance, blending seamlessly with the manor's historic character. The vast living room extends effortlessly onto a shaded terrace, adorned with comfortable seating and polished wooden accents, perfect for tranquil repose. Above, a spacious mezzanine offers an additional sanctuary for relaxation and quiet moments, while a separate cottage houses a dedicated media room with HD-TV, Dish Network, and Apple TV, ensuring comprehensive entertainment.

Culinary pursuits are elevated in the professional-grade kitchen, designed to inspire gourmet creations, with options for both elegant indoor and al fresco dining. The heart of the property is its central terrace, a verdant masterpiece of Caribbean vegetation. Here, a sumptuous heated swimming pool is framed by inviting loungers, swaying palm trees, and manicured lawns, creating a true haven of peace. A charming gazebo provides a secluded spot for contemplation or leisurely reading, all within a tranquil setting just moments from the ocean's edge.

The estate comprises seven individually styled suites, each housed within its own private pavilion nestled amidst the tropical gardens. Each sanctuary of comfort features either king-size or twin beds, air conditioning, and modern entertainment. Thoughtful details include spacious dressing rooms, private patios, and in some, the unique indulgence of outdoor showers or luxurious bathtubs. One suite thoughtfully shares a connecting bathroom, ideal for families. This magnificent property provides an exquisite backdrop for cherished family gatherings, significant celebrations, or an unforgettable escape to Saint-Barths.
