Villa Anima unfolds along the dramatic cliffs of Grand Fond, where waves meet stone and terraces extend toward the horizon. Built from pale stone, wood, and glass, this three-bedroom villa blends sculptural architecture with the untamed beauty of St. Barts’ Atlantic coast. Open-plan spaces flow seamlessly into the sea view, anchored by a heated pool that mirrors the sky. Surrounded by gardens and the sound of surf, each suite offers privacy and light, an ideal retreat for those seeking calm, design, and elemental luxury.
Architectural 3-bedroom retreat with ocean panoramas, sculptural design & poetic calm
Villa Anima is a modern sanctuary overlooking the raw beauty of Grand Fond’s Atlantic coast, where rolling waves and volcanic rock form one of the island’s most dramatic landscapes. Designed in stone and timber with a minimalist spirit, it offers privacy, texture, and uninterrupted sea views, a work of quiet architecture in motion with nature.
Architecture & Layout
Built in terraced levels that descend toward the ocean, Villa Anima unfolds as a composition of wood, stone, and glass.
The central living pavilion opens entirely to the horizon, merging interior space with the pool terrace.
A series of stairways and open decks connect each suite and outdoor zone, preserving both intimacy and visual continuity.
The property’s orientation captures sunrise light across the sea while sheltering the terraces from prevailing winds.
