Hibiscus Villa, St. Lucia

This beautiful home is located in the neighbourhood of Cap Estate in St. Lucia. It was built in true West Indian Style with lovely fretwork and shutters enabling cool sea breezes to pass through the house.  I first read about this this home in a great article by Katherine Atkinson in MACO Magazine. Hibiscus sits on a cliff above the sea and is surrounded by lush tropical St. Lucian gardens.  It has cool, calming white interior and rich dark wood floors.

When originally purchased by a UK Restaurateur and his wife, it was a small traditional cottage; much too small for entertaining guests. They proceeded to hire Lane Pettigrew to redesign and expand the house.  Even though they enlarged the home and raised the ceilings, the home still retains the small island cottage feel. One of my favourite parts of the house is the incredible 30 x 30 foot great room over looking the sea and the spectacular view framed by detailed fretwork.

You can rent Hibiscus Luxury Villa and enjoy your own piece of Caribbean living for a week or two!
