About this listing

Nestled within the prestigious Terres Basses community, Villa Mer Soleil is a magnificent five-bedroom luxury villa that beautifully combines French Creole architecture with Mediterranean elegance. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and offering sweeping panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea, Baie Longue Beach, the iconic La Samanna Resort, and the neighbouring island of Saba, this exceptional estate is designed for guests seeking privacy, sophistication, and an authentic Caribbean escape. As the sun sets each evening, the villa becomes the perfect vantage point to witness St. Martin’s spectacular sunsets, where brilliant shades of orange, pink, and gold paint the horizon.

The villa’s enchanting arrival immediately sets the tone for the experience ahead. A handcrafted teak entrance gate framed by colourful mosaic walls, towering palms, and vibrant tropical landscaping leads to a charming stone courtyard, where classic arches, terracotta rooflines, elegant columns, and decorative wrought iron details showcase the timeless beauty of French Caribbean design. Upon entering the villa, guests are greeted by breathtaking views that stretch across the shimmering infinity-style pool to the endless turquoise waters beyond, creating an unforgettable sense of arrival.

Designed to embrace seamless indoor-outdoor living, Villa Mer Soleil features expansive open-plan living spaces that flow effortlessly onto covered verandas and sun-drenched terraces. The sophisticated interiors blend Caribbean warmth with refined French style, incorporating handcrafted teak and rattan furnishings, local artwork, and soft coastal tones of cream, blue, and natural textures. Arched windows and doorways flood the villa with natural light while framing spectacular ocean views from virtually every living space. The spacious gourmet kitchen is beautifully appointed with custom wood cabinetry, marble finishes, and premium appliances, making it ideal for both private chef experiences and family gatherings.

One of the villa’s most distinctive features is its stunning Moroccan-inspired outdoor kitchen and dining pavilion. Adorned with vibrant blue tilework, this elegant alfresco space includes a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, spacious dining area, and comfortable lounge overlooking the tropical gardens and Caribbean Sea. Whether enjoying leisurely breakfasts, sunset dinners, or evening cocktails beneath the stars, the pavilion provides an unforgettable setting for outdoor entertaining.

Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged to provide both comfort and privacy. Three beautifully appointed bedrooms are located within the main residence, while two additional guest suites occupy a charming private cottage nestled among the tropical gardens. Each bedroom enjoys either breathtaking ocean views or tranquil garden vistas, complemented by private indoor and outdoor seating areas. Romantic four-poster beds, handcrafted teak and rattan furnishings, and elegant Provençal-inspired fabrics in calming shades of blue, white, and soft yellow create a serene atmosphere throughout. Luxurious ensuite bathrooms are individually designed with colourful Provençal tiles, intricate mosaics, spacious walk-in showers, and in several suites, captivating views of the gardens or Caribbean Sea. The cottage suites also feature convenient wet bars, refrigerators, and an interconnecting layout, making them particularly well suited for families or groups travelling together.

Villa Mer Soleil has also been thoughtfully designed to provide an inclusive luxury experience. Level pathways allow effortless access throughout the main outdoor living spaces and pool terrace, while select bedrooms have been adapted to accommodate guests with mobility needs, ensuring comfort and accessibility without compromising the villa’s elegant design.

Ideally located in the exclusive Terres Basses enclave, Villa Mer Soleil is just minutes from the pristine white sands of Baie Longue, Baie Rouge, and Baie aux Prunes, three of St. Martin’s most celebrated beaches. Guests can also enjoy convenient access to the boutiques, restaurants, galleries, and waterfront cafés of Marigot, while Princess Juliana International Airport is only a fifteen-minute drive away.

Combining timeless Caribbean architecture, breathtaking ocean views, luxurious accommodations, and exceptional outdoor living, Villa Mer Soleil offers one of the finest luxury villa experiences in St. Martin, creating an unforgettable setting for family vacations, group getaways, and special celebrations in the heart of the French Caribbean.
