Rive Gauche

Right in the center of life in Gustavia, just steps from the marina and all the bistros, brasseries, and boutiques in the city center, the newly built apartment Rive Gauche is as convenient as it gets. On the north side of the harbor, it's accessible to everything and right above the lovely little bistro L'Entracte. You can walk everywhere in town and, of course, to Shell Beach. Short of sleeping on a sailboat, this well-appointed pied-a-terre puts you as close as possible to harbor life.

The luxury rental property abounds in convenience, privacy, style and comforts. The two-bedroom apartment has a worldly sensibility, much like St. Barth itself. Its sanguine island style is the result of weathered wood, white couches, blue and white stripes on cushions, and playful details like a vintage phonograph. And its Jacuzzi on the terrace, with its bird's-eye view over the comings and goings of the harbor, is an idyllic place to relax after a day of adventure the concierge can organize anything from surfing to quad biking, or gear up for a night on the town.

With two bedrooms, Rive Gauche is ideal for couples traveling by themselves on a romantic retreat or with their children on a family vacation. The bedrooms, behind the main living area, both have European king beds, and they share a bathroom. The main space of the apartment encompasses a living room, dining area, and galley kitchen with ample counter space and all the expected appliances, from a juicer to a wine refrigerator. The covered dining terrace is a perfect place to relax before or after a meal and take in the stunning views of Gustavia Harbor.
