Gustavia Villa Rentals in St Barts
Gustavia is the capital of St Barts, a harbour town of red roofs, yachts and narrow streets that is best explored on foot. The bell tower from the island's Swedish years still stands above the town, and Shell Beach, a cove of tiny shells rather than sand, is a short walk south. A Gustavia villa rental suits a couple who want town life on the doorstep.

Before you go
What guests ask us most before a stay in Gustavia.
Can we get around Gustavia without a car?
Yes, within town. Gustavia is compact and walkable: the harbour front, the shops, the cafés and Shell Beach are all within a short walk. To reach the other beaches, such as Saint-Jean or Gouverneur, you will need a hire car or a taxi. Parking in town is tight in high season.
How far is Shell Beach from the villa?
Shell Beach is a short walk from the centre of Gustavia, under ten minutes on foot. It is the only beach in town, a cove covered in tiny shells, with clear water and rocks at either end. Bring water shoes if your feet are tender, and stay for the sunset over the outer harbour.
Is Gustavia busy at New Year?
Yes, very. New Year is the busiest time on St Barts, the harbour fills with yachts, and fireworks go up over Gustavia harbour at midnight. Streets, quays and restaurants are crowded for much of the week. If you want to be in town for it, send us your enquiry early.
