About Villa Arawak

Villa Arawak is a four-bedroom house in Terres Basses, a short drive from Plum Bay, with a private pool, a hot tub, and two bedrooms that open straight onto the terrace. One of the more affordable ways into the gated neighborhood, for families or groups of friends.

Villa Arawak is a four-bedroom house in Terres Basses, the gated western corner of the island, a short drive from Plum Bay and Baie Longue. It suits a family or a group of friends who want the neighborhood's privacy without stretching for it. It rents as two, three, or four bedrooms.

Arawak is built around its pool. Two of the four bedrooms open straight onto the terrace, so those guests can walk from bed to water in a few steps. The rest of the day happens outside too: a hot tub for the evening, sun loungers through the afternoon, and a BBQ on the terrace, all wrapped in tropical garden that keeps the place private.

Inside, the layout is open and easy, with a full kitchen for guests who want to cook and a recommended private chef for the nights they would rather not. Each of the four bedrooms is air-conditioned with its own bathroom, so mornings stay calm.

Plum Bay and Baie Longue, two of the quieter beaches in Terres Basses, are both a short drive down the road. For dinner out, we send guests to Le Sand on Baie Nettle, an easy beachfront table a few minutes away. The airport is about fifteen minutes out, and Grand Case's restaurants around twenty-five to the north.

We can have the fridge filled before you land and a chef in for the evenings you would rather stay put. At $4,200 a week in low season for all four bedrooms, Arawak is one of the gentler prices inside the Terres Basses gate, a house for a group that plans to spend the trip in the garden and the pool rather than the car.

Where Villa Arawak is

Good to know

  • Check-in from 4:00 PM, check-out by 10:00 AM. Earlier arrivals can sometimes be arranged.
  • Rates are per week in US dollars, plus 10% tax and service. A deposit holds the dates; the balance is due before arrival.
  • House rules, the security deposit and cancellation terms are set out in the rental agreement for this villa. Parties and events always need the owner's approval in advance.
  • The French side uses euros and European 220V sockets, so bring an adapter for US plugs. US dollars and cards are widely accepted.
  • Terres Basses is residential and gated: for groceries and most restaurants you drive out to Marigot, Simpson Bay or Grand Case, or have a chef come to the villa.
  • A rental car is the easiest way to get around; driving is on the right on both sides of the island.
