A Tour de Force located in the Hills of Colombier:
"BWH" is based on traditional West Indian architecture but it
is built like a palace. The villa sits atop Colombier's
highest hill
with 360-degree views including southwesterly views of St. Kitts, Nevis, St.
Eustatius and Saba...

A Remarkable Villa with Traditional Colonial Overtones:
"ELA" is located on Flamands beach, with the ocean on the
other side of a stand of sea grapes and palm tress, through a
picket fence and about 75 meters across the sand. ELA
includes a tennis court and landscaping that suggests a
brilliantly planned jungle...

steel, copious glass and gleaming chrome define a series of
rambling open spaces...

New World Sophistication and Old World Style:
The Hotel Isle de France is one of the very best hotels on St.

decadently large bathtubs make this the smart casual retreat on
the island.
