La Dolce Vita.

It’s a good description of the way of life on the French Caribbean paradise of St Barth, and one villa brings the St Barth lifestyle in a small package.

This one-bedroom, one-bathroom villa named Dolce Vita is listed with Sibarth Real Estate for € 1,300,000, or about $1.43 million, not exactly steep by St Barth standards.

The property is located on the hillside of Anse des Cayes, with ocean views on a 15-lot residence.

It’s one way to find the sweet life in St Barth.
