La Baleine - Colombier

Set high on the northwestern tip of Colombier, Villa La Baleine embodies authentic island living with a graceful simplicity that feels both easygoing and timeless. Its name, meaning “the whale” in French, reflects the villa’s close connection with the Caribbean Sea, offering sweeping panoramas that stretch across the ocean and unforgettable sunset views that paint the horizon each evening.

The architecture pays homage to traditional St. Barth style. Colonial-inspired wood carvings, a charming white slatted fence along the veranda, and natural materials create an atmosphere that is warm and inviting. Rather than chasing trends, Villa La Baleine has preserved its character over the years, maintaining the kind of understated elegance that makes guests feel instantly at home.

The property unfolds across three levels, designed to balance privacy and shared living. On the arrival level, guests are welcomed by a cozy living room and a well-equipped kitchen separated by a simple counter, creating a convivial heart of the home. Also on this level is one of the three bedrooms, along with an independent, air-conditioned office in a small bungalow, perfect for those who wish to blend work with leisure. Outdoor seating and a dining area near the grill invite long, relaxed meals under the sky.

One level below, the swimming pool becomes the focal point, framed by a wide terrace furnished with chaise lounges and shaded seating. It is a natural gathering place where sun-soaked days turn into starlit evenings. A second bedroom is located on this level, offering direct access to the terrace.

The third bedroom sits above the living spaces on the highest floor. Though slightly smaller in size, it offers the villa’s most remarkable vantage point, with a spacious private terrace and endless sea views. Each of the three bedrooms has a king-size bed and ensuite bathroom, ensuring both comfort and privacy.

With its relaxed character, stunning location, and authentic island charm, Villa La Baleine is an exceptional retreat for couples or groups of friends seeking a serene Caribbean escape rooted in true St. Barth spirit.
