One of the most spacious and luxurious one-bedroom villas on the island of St. Barth, the newly built Villa Case Thalie (TAL) is a dreamy retreat for a couple in love. The rental property is situated in St Jean, along the road that leads down to Saline, and it has a lovely view overlooking the bay.

Case Thalie has all of the amenities and details that one might hope for to make it feel like a five-star hotel. But as a private villa, it retains its delicious seclusion as a house with its own pool, sundeck, kitchen, living room, ample parking, and easy access.

With its decor of natural materials and earthy tones, the villa integrates seamlessly into the nature that surrounds it. It is open to the natural breezes both to the front and to the back, and it has access to a private outdoor shower area that is integrated into the natural rocks behind the bedroom. The bathtub adds an extra touch of luxury.

The villa offers a true St. Barth experience, but in a way that has been reinvented and modernized to serve today’s travelers. The kitchen cabinetry and living room furniture are bespoke. The bedroom is spacious and filled with natural light. Outside, there is a dining area and a relaxing zone with chaise lounges and hammocks. There is also an independent powder room in its own “case.”
