A surrounding stone wall and a wooden gated entrance give this delightful hillside fully air-conditioned villa a nice hideaway vibe. Once guests step inside, they are treated to a breathtaking ocean panorama that provides the perfect backdrop for a striking infinity heated pool. A comfy sectional sofa is kitty-cornered and perfect for TV watching or gazing out at the panoramic seascape which includes parts of Gustavia, Saba, and St. Maarten. It conveys, "relax; put your feet-up." The sleek stainless kitchen has a breakfast bar and opens to a portico for dining and just beyond, there is a bi-level deck for sunning. A charming gazebo at the foot of the pool is a perfect spot for morning coffee and sunset cocktails – or curling up with your Kindle.

Two bedrooms on the main level are on opposite sides of the villa, with access to the terrace and pool. One is in a separate pavilion while another bedroom (no view), with twin beds convertible to a king, is adjacent to one of them - perfect for parents who want their younger children close to them. Each has an en suite bath with double vanities and rain showers. A 4th en suite bedroom – with a king bed (no view) - is privately located on the lower level. The 5th bedroom, with stunning ocean views, features a deck with a Jacuzzi. Nautical buffs take note, if you stay at Villa Etoile Brilliante while one of the island’s many regattas are taking place, you will enjoy an amazing view of the billowing sails as the contenders race by.
