Golden Palm
Golden Palm is a five-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bathroom villa set on the hillside above St Jean, one of St Barts’ most central bays and home to the airport and a long stretch of beach below. The villa doesn’t sit on that beach; it looks down on the bay from elevation, with floor-to-ceiling windows and an infinity pool positioned to frame the water rather than meet it. Limestone floors and custom millwork run through the interior. With five en-suite bedrooms sleeping up to 10, it’s sized for a larger group that wants a hillside base close to St Jean’s restaurants and shops without staying in the middle of them.
Indoor Design & Living
Floor-to-ceiling windows run along the main living areas, keeping the bay in view from the sofa and the dining table alike. Limestone floors and custom millwork are the dominant material choices, and the layout is open-plan rather than divided into separate closed rooms.
Outdoor Spaces & Pool
The infinity pool is positioned to draw the eye toward the water below, with terrace seating on more than one level of the property. Garden paths and landscaping separate some of the outdoor areas, which helps if different guests in the group want quieter corners rather than one shared deck.
Bedrooms & Guest Setup
Five en-suite bedrooms are split across the villa, with the primary suite opening onto its own terrace with a bay view. The other four are sized to sleep two each comfortably, which matches the 10-guest maximum, and each has its own storage and bedding setup rather than sharing between rooms.
Setting & Positioning
St Jean is the bay where the airport, main beach, and a cluster of restaurants and shops sit together - one of the busiest parts of the island by day. Golden Palm is above that activity on the hillside, so guests get the view and a short distance to St Jean's amenities without being at street level in the middle of it.

Questions About Golden Palm
- Is Golden Palm walking distance to St Jean beach?
The villa is on the hillside above St Jean, not at beach level, so it's a drive rather than a walk down to the sand. What you get instead is an elevated view over the whole bay from the pool and living areas.
- How many people can actually sleep here comfortably?
Five en-suite bedrooms sleep up to 10 guests as a maximum, which works out to two per room - it's built for couples sharing a group trip rather than a mix of families needing separate kid spaces.
- What's it like being so close to the airport?
St Jean is home to Gustaf III Airport (SBH), and being on the hillside above the bay puts elevation between the villa and the runway compared to staying at beach level in St Jean itself.
- What's the interior style?
Limestone floors and custom millwork throughout, with an open-plan layout and floor-to-ceiling windows - the interior leans toward letting the view do the work rather than heavy decoration.
