Heron Court – Coco Villa

Heron Court – Coco Villa, St. James, St. Barts

Heron Court – Coco Villa is a quaint Villa in St. James, St. Barts, that offers the utmost in privacy and the comforts of home—if home were on the island.

There are four rooms at Heron Court – Coco Villa, each with its own theme: ocean-blue, red island birds, feng shui green, and the master bedroom’s open balcony, which speaks for itself. The use of mirrors opens an already very open, whitewash floorplan to create a clean, comfortable space the likes of which one might desire in a meditative state. Paintings of beautiful women in dresses of varying colors add accents that complement solid swatches of white and blue. Each piece in Heron Court – Coco Villa was set with what appears to be intention. Satisfaction is the energy of the space.

The typical whitewash of Caribbean architecture is accented with decorative trim, sea-blue storm shutters, and French doors. A king-sized master bedroom boasts French doors that open onto a full, L-shaped lounge sofa on the pool terrace, complete with a coffee table and garden views. Enjoy evenings drinking wine by the pool or morning coffee in the garden, which is expertly maintained by a gardener. Other staff includes a maid service that comes twice a week, a pool professional, an on-site property manager, and complementary concierges who manage the logistics of bookings as in an in-villa spa treatment or a catered meal cooked by an in-house chef.

The main living space has a large white sectional on large white tiles. An excellent entertainment center is made of mirrors and wrought iron. Above it is a television mounted on the wall and orchids used to accent other splashes of tropical color in the room. A small, round, glass dining table with white wicker armchairs occupies the corner by the front garden entrance next to the kitchen. The kitchen makes use of clean white counters and smooth black appliances to offset a robin’s egg-blue pastel pallet on the cabinetry and decorative backsplash tiles.

A door in the kitchen opens to the front garden while the back of the main room opens to the veranda and poolside terrace. An alfresco dining set, a round black table to offset the round white table in the dining room, welcomes outdoor meals and evenings by the pool. Guests at Heron Court – Coco Villa, enjoy the ultimate luxury treatment in this private garden getaway.
