You're the king of the hill with all of Charlotte Amalie, cruise ships, seaplanes, and St. Thomas's harbor spread at your feet from the floor to ceiling windows in the Great Room of this stunning villa. Originally the home of a 50's movie actress, this magnificent property high atop exclusive Flag Hill has been beautifully renovated.
The all-new kitchen is state of the art, and the expansive family room opens to a spacious stonework patio (home of the famous flag of Flag Hill) with breathtaking Caribbean views. Three private and imaginatively decorated bedroom/bath suites are on the main level, including a king master suite with its own secluded sitting room. The main floor also contains a media room/home theater with a large-screen TV and an extensive movie collection. The media room adjoins a full bath, and with its sofa bed, may be used as an extra bedroom. Two additional bedroom/bath suites on the villa's lower level overlook the pool area.
Each bedroom enjoys direct access to an exterior deck or patio and its own bath. Although Villa Drapeau is ideally situated to capture refreshing tradewinds, the entire villa is air-conditioned with separately controlled units for each room. On the pool deck you'll find not only an incredible view from a generously-sized pool, but also a fully-equipped shaded pool house with refrigerator, gas grill and a full bath. A few steps up from the pool deck is a large hot tub overlooking the vistas, and nearby is a stonework garden pathway threaded through lush and diverse tropical plantings and citrus trees.
A separate building houses your own workout room with commercial-quality equipment. At dusk, when the sun sinks into the sea and the lights come up in Charlotte Amalie, you're in a front-row seat to enjoy the romantic vision of her twinkling lights from your dining table - it's a view you'll never forget, and which you'll never want to leave.
Villa Drapeau may be rented with her sister villa just below, for family vacations for 18-22 people.
A small cottage on the far side of the property is from time to time occupied by two tenants, but your privacy at this electronically gated, exclusive 5-acre retreat is always assured. Five stars!
