Casaroc

Delightfully cozy, romantic and breezy, Villa Casaroc (CTB) is a petite haven for couples or small families who are seeking seclusion on St. Barth but who don’t want to give up access to town and all of its conveniences and pleasures. The luxury rental property, which is new to Sibarth’s collection of the island’s best private villas for intimate and personalized vacations, has a simple, understated French-Caribbean-chic decor, with calming seas of white and gentle weathered woods in its two bedrooms and capacious common areas, and of course, unobstructed, wide-angle views over Gustavia Harbor and the red roofs of buildings down the hill in town.

That proximity to St. Barth’s lively center gives Villa Casaroc (CTB) another of its desired attributes: Its location in the heart of Gustavia near L’Isola means that although the tranquil villa feels like a private sanctuary when you’re within its gates, as soon as you leave that enclave, you step into busy town life, and you have easy access to shopping, restaurants and Shell Beach, without having the bother of driving or parking a rental car. (And of course, Sibarth’s rental rates include transfers to and from the airport, and should you want to go farther afield during your stay, Sibarth’s highly efficient concierge can arrange drivers and excursions, as well as an array of entertainment, pampering or workout options within the villa.)
