Villa Apiano is a vibrant hillside retreat nestled in the lush gardens of Grand Fond, where terracotta roofs and bright Caribbean hues surround a central pool. Designed for both privacy and togetherness, its four en-suite bedrooms are set across separate pavilions, while the main living area, with a piano and open kitchen, flows onto the terrace. Framed by palms and tropical calm, Villa Apiano offers a serene, character-rich haven for families or friends seeking an authentic St. Barts escape.
Colorful 4-bedroom villa combining Caribbean charm, garden privacy & ocean glimpses

Architecture & Layout
The villa is composed of colorful bungalows painted in vivid Caribbean tones, dispersed around the central terrace and pool.
The roofs are terracotta or colored metal, giving a playful, expressive silhouette.
The terraces are tiled and partially covered; the layout encourages indoor/outdoor living, with many rooms opening to garden or terrace.
The property is set at the end of a private alley or drive, enhancing privacy and seclusion.
