Beautiful St-Barts spreads out before you at Pasha, where a hillside location affords panoramic views of the lush landscape and picturesque roofs leading down to St. Jean Bay and the ocean. There are six beaches within a short drive of the property, and traditional architecture, warm and welcoming interiors and four spacious bedrooms round out the villa’s charms.

The villa’s great room opens to a wide veranda with covered sitting and dining areas. Wander past the veranda to the sunny terracotta terrace, which has a shaded daybed for naps, chaise longues for reading and an infinity pool overlooking the ocean. In the evenings, set the mood with the iPod dock, gather around the satellite TV and DVD player, stay in touch via Wi-Fi and rest comfortably thanks to ceiling fans and air-conditioned bedrooms.

From the outside, Pasha is a classic Caribbean villa, with a red roof, white walls, blue shutters and plenty of French doors leading to the terrace. Inside, it’s just as charming and traditional, with warm wood panelling, vaulted ceilings and louvered screens in the great room.
