Discover Corossol – A Seaside Gem with Local Flair

Choosing a villa rental in Corossol means embracing the island’s authentic soul. Nestled on the western coast of Saint Barthélemy, Corossol is a peaceful fishing village that has evolved into one of the island’s most charming neighbourhoods. While Gustavia hums with boutiques and nightlife, Corossol preserves a sense of tradition and intimacy that feels worlds away.

The bay of Corossol is lined with soft golden sand and dotted with colourful fishing boats that sway gently on the turquoise waters. It’s a small, picturesque harbour where the rhythm of local life still lingers — fishermen mend their nets, children play on the pier, and visitors discover an atmosphere that is both tranquil and deeply connected to St Barth’s history.

Yet, despite its rustic charm, Corossol is only five minutes from Gustavia, making it the perfect balance between authenticity and convenience. Perched villas overlook the bay and offer breathtaking panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea, while the western exposure guarantees some of the most spectacular sunsets on the island.

Villas & Amenities in Corossol

The villas in Corossol combine the spirit of island living with modern refinement. Each villa rental in Corossol is designed to offer privacy, space, and elegance — the essentials for a serene stay in St Barth.

Architecture varies between contemporary minimalist homes and Creole-inspired residences. Large terraces open onto infinity pools, sun decks, and outdoor lounges shaded by palm trees. Inside, the living spaces are bathed in natural light, with sliding glass doors that frame ocean views and let in the gentle sea breeze.

Typical amenities include air conditioning, fully equipped kitchens, ensuite bathrooms, and king-size beds dressed in crisp linens. Guests can enjoy Apple TV, high-speed Wi-Fi, and premium sound systems for entertainment. Some properties feature private gyms, shaded gardens, and covered terraces perfect for outdoor dining.

Whether you’re planning a family trip to Saint Barthélemy or a romantic escape, these villas are ideal for travellers seeking a blend of comfort and authenticity. Each property is selected for its unique character, thoughtful services, and spectacular views over the sea and the village below.

For those who want easy access to the beach, a few villas are just steps away from the sand — a rare luxury on the island. Others, perched higher on the hills, offer uninterrupted panoramas and absolute privacy, perfect for morning yoga, sunbathing, or an evening cocktail at sunset.

Experience Corossol – Beach, Culture & Sunsets

Corossol offers a rare duality: it feels removed from the world yet remains deeply alive. Its beach is one of the calmest on the island, protected from the winds and ideal for swimming or paddleboarding. The waters are shallow, warm, and framed by hills that shield it from the crowds.

A stroll through the village reveals small artisan workshops and local houses with traditional thatched roofs. The authenticity of Corossol contrasts beautifully with the nearby luxury of Flamands or Colombier. Guests often enjoy walking to Public Beach or hiking to Colombier for a secluded swim surrounded by nature.

When the sun begins to dip, Corossol transforms. The horizon turns gold, the sea glows, and the hillside villas light up — each terrace becoming a front-row seat to a postcard-perfect Caribbean sunset. It’s a simple yet unforgettable experience, one that captures the essence of St Barthélemy.

For dining, the restaurants of Gustavia and Flamands are just a short drive away. From beachside grills to refined French bistros, the island’s cuisine is an invitation to indulge. Your concierge can reserve a table or organise private dining at your villa, with a chef crafting menus inspired by local flavours.
