Summary:
In perhaps one of French St. Martin’s most beautiful locations, Villa Libellule – The Dragonfly, is an idyllic five-bedroom home sitting high on a promontory in Terres Basses nestled between the Caribbean Sea and the scenic Simpson Bay lagoon. Set on five acres of elevated beachfront, this elegant five bedroom retreat enjoys sweeping panoramic views that stretch from the sapphire waters of the Caribbean Sea to the tranquil lagoon of Simpson Bay.
The Space:
Despite its lofty position, Libellule maintains a rare and direct connection to the sea, with a private garden pathway winding gently down to the soft sands of Baie Rouge Beach. A curving driveway framed by tropical gardens leads to a graceful entry courtyard centered around a fountain, setting the tone for the villa's serene sophistication.
To the right of the main house, a spacious pool pavilion beckons with an expansive sun deck and a pool overlooking the lagoon and sunsets that set the sky ablaze. A covered wet bar, refrigerator, and full bathroom make this the perfect setting for lazy afternoons or starlit gatherings, accompanied by the villa's surround sound system.
Inside, Libellule combines the open elegance of Caribbean architecture with refined European comfort. High vaulted ceilings, limestone floors, and traditional shutters create a breezy, inviting atmosphere. The grand living room flows effortlessly to a seafacing terrace, where both a covered patio and an open lounge capture uninterrupted ocean views and the distant silhouette of Anguilla, an ever-changing canvas of light and color.
The warm, fully equipped kitchen features natural wood cabinetry and a central island, opening to a charming octagonal breakfast gazebo perched above the sea, a magical spot to savor morning coffee while watching waves roll ashore.
The villa's five bedrooms, each with private entrances and en suite bathrooms, are sanctuaries of calm. Two are located on the main level, including the primary suite, finished in soft neutral tones with a private terrace overlooking the lagoon and gardens. Three additional bedrooms are found on the lower levels, each with its own terrace or garden view, blending comfort, privacy, and Caribbean elegance.
Conveniently close to gourmet restaurants, a French bakery, and the island's best beaches, Villa Libellule offers unmatched serenity within minutes of Marigot, Porto Cupecoy, and Maho Village.
