Villa Dunes is a rare private estate set within the Saline nature reserve, surrounded by dunes, gardens, and views that stretch across the turquoise expanse of Saline Bay. With six en-suite bedrooms split between a main villa and two guest bungalows, this grand property combines architectural elegance with complete privacy. Two heated infinity pools, dual kitchens, and lush terraces create an expansive yet tranquil setting, ideal for families, retreats, or events in St Barts’ most exclusive enclave.
Modern Waterfront Estate in the Heart of Saline Reserve
Villa Dunes is a luxurious 6-bedroom estate set in Saline’s nature reserve, perched over the dunes and just a short walk from Saline Beach. With sweeping ocean views, two heated pools, modern architecture, and abundant indoor/outdoor living space, it’s designed for both grand group stays and elegant escapes.
Architecture & Layout
The estate spans 2.5 acres (approx.) of landscaped tropical gardens, making it one of the most private and expansive properties near Saline.
The architectural style is contemporary: clean lines, glass walls, stone and slate facades, terraces that emphasize connection to nature.
The property comprises a main villa plus two independent bungalows, cleverly positioned to balance privacy, views, and communal areas.
Terraced levels with stone stairs, grassy lawns, wooden decks, and multiple levels allow seamless transitions between spaces.

Bedrooms (6 ensuite):
• Main Villa has 4 suites: master suite on pool level, plus 3 additional sea-facing suites on upper levels, each with private terraces.
• Independent Bungalows host the remaining 2 bedrooms: one bungalow includes its own kitchen and living area, the other offers privacy in the garden setting.
Each suite includes air conditioning, en suite bathroom(s), and terraces with ocean or garden views. Some bathrooms feature outdoor showers or rain heads.
Interiors are minimalist yet warm: neutral palettes, wood accents, sliding glass walls, open layouts that blur indoors and outdoors.
Shared Social Spaces
Grand living / dining / lounge spaces open generously to terraces and the pool deck.
Two fully equipped kitchens: one open to the living area for entertaining, another in air-conditioned quarters for chef work.
Fitness / gym / wellness spaces and a massage palapa are part of the amenities.

Two heated pools: one for laps / swimming, the other for more casual lounging and enjoyment.
