Among the many appeals of Villa Nahma (NAH) is the sense of time travel that spending time there creates. One of the first estates to be built on St. Barth, the house has been restored by its new owners to its original glory. Exuding history and charm, the luxury rental property dates from the time when the island was more private and visited by only a few—a few who had good taste, sufficient resources, and an appreciation of the finer things in life. This is the best of vintage Caribbean.
When you step into the house, you feel as if you have been touched by magic. The warm wood paneling on the walls and ceilings were lovingly restored, and the furnishings, fabrics, and books lining the walls are vintage in the most delightful of ways. And then the location—up a hill in Vitet—and surrounding nature add enormously to that sensation. The house is built on a very large piece of land, and the garden, which contains numerous exotic plants, spreads all around. Inside, the villa becomes a cocoon, as the property feels very protected and private. The land above is in a green zone, so nothing will be built on it.
The layout of Villa Nahma is well suited to families and groups of friends traveling together. Sibarth’s concierge can personalize guests’ vacations and create fond memories involving culinary delights or outdoor adventures. There is ample seating in a covered sitting area on the veranda and at the dining table in front of the large, well-equipped kitchen, as well as plenty of space to sunbathe around the heated pool. The master bedroom, which has a four-poster king-size bed, lies to the right of the living room and has a sea view. The second bedroom is located behind the master and has its own entrance to the garden. The third is in a freestanding bungalow in the garden, and the fourth is on the lower level of the main house and has a private terrace. Each has either a king-size bed or two twins that can be made up as a twin. The views throughout are outstanding.
Sibarth Bespoke Villa Rentals is proud to offer the historic charm of Villa Nahma.
