Overview
Accommodation
Of course, Villa Amethyste is also a good choice for nature lovers, who will find plenty to admire in the breathtaking view of the Petit Cul de Sac sea from the pool, main terrace and lounge, and in the smooth integration of the covered terrace into the rocky slopes of the quiet eastern part of the island. Young palm trees add green to the stone landscape. It is a welcoming and relaxing environment.
The two bedrooms, each located on either side of the living room and dining room, are of equivalent size (each with an inside shower and an outside shower and a double vanity), one of the bedrooms is equipped with a king size bed. The second of two double beds can be transformed into a king size bed or remain as it is for a family. They are spacious and minimalist, making the house easy to share for two couples as well. The large lounge, with its modern and refined tones, opens onto the terrace with its large heated swimming pool.
Villa Amethyste is very well equipped. On the ground floor there is a sports hall to stay in shape, even on holiday, and there is a cinema room with a sofa bed. What better way to watch a movie once the sports sessions are over? After the effort comes the comfort. This level also includes a separate bathroom with shower.
But as with many luxury villas in St Barts, your life here will be free of charge outside. The main terrace has an overflow pool overlooking the bay, with many deckchairs and sofas nearby, and the terrace of the dining room arranged with a table and chairs offers a captivating setting for outdoor meals or a barbecue evening.

on the ocean, there are other ways to go. First, you can rent a
motor-boat with or without a captain from 17' to 55'...

is more relaxing and enjoyable than a sailing trip? Several rental

for a day or a half-day or more...

Scuba Diving
Lessons and guided tours with SCUBA, with a mask and snorkle or even on a submarine.
Surf and windsurfing

bottle of water, hiking is a good way to discover St. Barts. The most
famous path will take you from Petite Anse to the stunning bay of

otherwise. But you can also climb up to the top of the island, Mount
Vitet, 286 meters high, or you can tour the Toiny Point... Vegetation on
various windward places grows like bonzaïs, tough tiny trees leaning
away from many years of strong gusts of wind. The dry forest shelters
botanical treasures, orchids, rare cactuses, beds of white lilies... But

be kindly asked to walk back on your steps by owners not willing to see
their properties trespassed. The Tourist bureau has a small document
showing some hiking itineraries.
