The Christopher St Barth hotel has unveiled two new villas at the luxe retreat, Caribbean Journal has learned.

The property has debuted a pair of new four-bedroom villas with private pools to its Pointe Milou hotel, with a third four-bedroom villa set to debut in the spring. 

The villas were designed by Olivia Putman, the head of Studio Putman and the daughter of renowned designer Andrée Putman. 

Each villa has a large deck and a pool, with a “modern aesthetic” that uses natural materials like bamboo, sandstone and volcanic stone. 

Every villa guest gets full access to all of the facilities at The Christopher, including its Sisley Spa, fitness room and eateries.
