Wastra - Gustavia

In the vibrant heart of Gustavia, Villa Wastra is a contemporary two-bedroom retreat that combines refined style with effortless comfort. Perfect for a family or two couples, this chic property places you just minutes from the island’s finest beaches, restaurants, and boutiques, while offering a front-row seat to some of the most spectacular sunsets in Saint Barth.

The villa’s name, “Wastra,” means “full west” in Swedish, a fitting tribute to its unique position facing the horizon. From its terrace, the harbor comes alive with sleek yachts gliding in and out, and as evening falls, the sky ignites in brilliant shades of orange, rose, and gold. It is a spectacle that makes every evening feel like a celebration.

Inside, the décor is sleek and modern, with a vaulted ceiling enhancing the airy living room. A soft gray sofa with plush cushions creates a relaxed atmosphere, while large glass doors frame the captivating harbor view. Behind the lounge, a dining table for six sits adjacent to the shaded patio, where a barbecue is ready for long, leisurely lunches under the Caribbean sun. The kitchen is a contemporary masterpiece, outfitted in stainless steel, soft grays, and crisp whites, providing all the modern appliances needed for both casual meals and gourmet evenings.

The outdoor spaces are just as inviting. The infinity pool mirrors the sky and stretches toward the sea, a refreshing centerpiece to the sunlit terrace. Comfortable loungers line the deck, perfect for reading, daydreaming, or soaking in the warm Saint Barth sunshine. Under the covered portion of the terrace, a smaller dining table for four offers an intimate setting for al fresco dinners, enhanced by the glow of lanterns and the gentle trade winds. Lush greenery, from banana trees to delicate shrubs, adds freshness and tropical charm to the serene setting.

The two bedrooms are situated on either side of the main living area, offering privacy and balance. Each suite features a king-size bed, crisp linens, and refined mineral-inspired décor, along with ensuite bathrooms. Both open directly onto the terrace and pool, allowing you to step out each morning and take in the harbor view before your first swim. Thoughtful details, from silky fabrics to subtle lighting, elevate the sense of calm and comfort in these restful spaces.

Villa Wastra is as practical as it is beautiful. Its location in Gustavia makes it easy to wander to nearby cafés, browse chic boutiques, or enjoy the island’s nightlife. Yet, once you return to your private terrace, the energy of the town melts away, replaced by peace, luxury, and the soft rhythm of the waves below.

For travelers who want to combine convenience with privacy and modern style with island warmth, Villa Wastra is a perfect choice. With its extraordinary harbor views and nightly sunsets that feel like a private performance, this is Saint Barth at its most captivating.
