Amethyst - Cliffside villa with pool and ocean view, Terres Basses, St. Martin

Summary:

Perched dramatically on the cliffs of Pointe du Bluff in Terres Basses, Villa Amethyst enjoys one of French St. Martin's most extraordinary settings. Nestled between Baie aux Cayes and the striking natural rock arch known as the "Trou de David," the villa offers a sweeping 180-degree panorama of the Caribbean Sea. The view unfolds across the turquoise bay and along the island's rugged coastline, extending all the way to Anguilla on the horizon.



The Space:

Formerly known as 'Le Mas des Sables', this exquisite villa has been completely reimagined into a luminous and contemporary retreat, designed to celebrate both the natural surroundings and the art of relaxation. From the gated entrance, a winding driveway ascends through tropical gardens to an elegant arched courtyard. As you step inside, the first thing to greet you is the mesmerizing ocean view, and the soft radiance of the villa's namesake gemstone.



At the heart of the home, a magnificent six-foot pair of amethyst crystal wings stands as a focal point in the living area, emanating a tranquil lilac glow. Throughout the villa, smaller amethyst stones are thoughtfully placed, in bedrooms, on the patio, and even on keychains, infusing every space with their gentle, restorative energy. Long believed to encourage calm, clarity, and inner peace, these gemstones perfectly complement the villa's serene atmosphere, enhancing the sense of harmony that defines every moment here.



The open-plan living area features a comfortable TV lounge and a seamless connection to the oceanfront terrace through traditional wooden-shuttered doors. The brand-new kitchen is a chef's delight, equipped with sleek white cabinetry, Neff appliances, and a breakfast nook overlooking the sea. A convivial bar area with a wine cooler and ice machine opens directly to the terrace.



Outside, a covered terrace offers plush seating and a large dining table for ten guests, alongside a gas grill for al fresco meals. Stone steps descend to a free-form heated pool surrounded by sun loungers and daybeds, while a lower-level terrace provides additional space for sunbathing and quiet reflection.



Five bedrooms are located in a separate multi-level building built into the hillside, each with a unique character and connection to the natural setting. All feature king-size beds, en suite bathrooms, and thoughtful details like robes and beach bags. The "Howlite" suite enjoys a private balcony and daybed overlooking the ocean, while "Citrine" offers its own sun terrace. The fifth bedroom, "Rose Quartz," sits below the main living area with a private deck near the pool, the perfect spot for quiet retreat.



With its tranquil energy, refined design, and breathtaking setting, Villa Amethyst is a sanctuary for renewal and connection, a place where nature's beauty, modern luxury, perfect for families or friends vacationing together. One of the island’s finest beaches, Baie Rouge is an easy 8-minute walk away or just a couple of minutes by car, and the villa is conveniently located, just a 10-minute drive, between Marigot and Cupecoy.
