Villa Philea St Barth — 2-Bedroom Ocean-View Villa with Private Pool in Flamands
In short: Villa Philea is a contemporary two-bedroom villa on the hillside of Flamands, on the northwest (leeward) coast of St. Barthélemy. It has a private pool, open sea views and a fully equipped kitchen, and sits about 500 metres from Flamands Beach. It suits couples or two couples, can be booked as a one-bedroom at a lower rate, and can be combined with the neighbouring Storge unit for a four-bedroom stay.
Set among tropical gardens above Flamands Bay, Villa Philea pairs bright, modern interiors with the calm of the island’s quieter side. The living room opens onto the kitchen and out to a pool terrace facing the sea — the kind of place where mornings start with an espresso by the water and end with a short walk down to one of St. Barts’ longest beaches. Gustavia’s restaurants and boutiques are roughly a 7–15 minute drive away.

Inside the Villa
Both bedrooms open off the main living room, which keeps the layout simple and private for two couples or a small family. The living space is air-conditioned, light-filled and looks straight out to the ocean. The open kitchen is set up for real cooking, with a dishwasher, microwave, toaster, blender and both a coffee machine and an espresso machine — useful on an island where groceries are excellent and dinners out are expensive.

- Air-conditioned living room with sea views and Apple TV
- Modern, fully equipped open kitchen
- Private pool terrace surrounded by tropical garden

The Location: Living on the Flamands Side
Flamands is the residential, low-key end of the island — a wide sandy bay with calm mornings, good swimming and a mostly local crowd. From Villa Philea you can walk to the sand in a few minutes. For a deeper look at the neighbourhood, its hotels and where to eat, read our Flamands neighbourhood and beach guide.
The villa is also within 2 km of Colombier, the island’s most secluded beach, reachable only by footpath or boat. Our guide to getting to Colombier Beach covers the trail from the Flamands end.
Who Villa Philea Is Best For
- Couples wanting a private pool at a lower price point — book it as a 1-bedroom.
- Two couples or a small family sharing the two en-suite bedrooms.
- Larger groups who combine Philea with the Storge unit for four bedrooms.
