Having already rent in Saint Barth, we were partycularly taken by villa Anakao. This villa combines charm and all the amenities you can possibly need in a house. All of them being perfectly well maintened. The villa is elegently and tastefully furnished and all the elements of decor, inside and outside the house, including the swimming pool have been thoughtfully chosen. Most of all, the owners offer a particularly warm welcome and keep considerate attention to their guests all along their stay. This is a first-class address to recommend. We will definitely spend some time there again.

My husband and I recently spent 10 days at Villa Anakao. We returned to St. Bart after 15 years and had a fantastic time. The villa was perfect and Sandy and Christian were very helpful when we had questions. I will definitely return and rent again!!

Villa Anakao is a real oasis on the beautiful island of St Barths. It makes an excellent place for some R&R. Sandy met us at the tiny airport (the landing is exciting) and guided us to the villa; which is new and with a very pleasing contemporary design, equiped to be a home from home. It is well furnished with high quality equipment and cleaned daily which makes for a lovely return each day. The villa commands a lovely quiet view over the valley yet it is only minutes from St Jean (Eden Rock, Nikki Beach, Tom Beach...). Sandy and Christian checked with us to ensure everything was to our liking and we felt welcome and truly enjoyed our stay. We tried every beach on the island and found Flamands and Gouverneur to be great beeches, with Shell Beach and St Jean with easy access to good restaurants on/by the beach. St Barths is a cross betwen Saint Tropez and Ile de Re, with the best of both within the Caribbean. The sea is a delight as is the soft white sandy beaches. Villa Anakao fits the ambience perfectly and the warm pool makes for a pleasant dip after a hot day. As a family, we loved the island and the villa and will be sure to come back to both. So much more to add but then that would take away your own adventure and exploration of Villa Anakao and St Barths.

Recently returned from a great vacation at Villa Anakao. The villa owner, Christian, was a wonderful host and very helpful. It is clear he takes great pride in his recently remodeled home. The finishes are very high quality with an open floorplan, great pool area, fantastic master bedroom and guest room with access to a double bed loft. Perfect for three people, two to three couples, or a family of five. Though you do not have a view of St. Jean bay, the peaceful setting (just up the road from Eden Rock) and the mountain views toward the airport in the distance make for a great experience. Though I've never had a "bad" experience over the last 20 years on the island, Villa Anakao is well worth renting. It's a great value, a very convenient location with a helpful and charming owner. Try it, you'll like it. My family and I will definately be back!

VILLA ANAKAO? WONDERFUL!!!! We have just returned from a two-week stay(January 2010)in this lovely new villa, and we are like jelly! Our vacation was so relaxing and restorative, thanks to not only a beautiful, well-appointed villa, but kudos to the kind owners, Sandy and Christian. They maintain a well-kept property, one nestled within native vegetation of beautiful flowering trees and sweeping vistas of surrounding environs. We never slept better! The kitchen was the grand feature for me, as I enjoy cooking, and my husband and I both enjoy eating! Well appointed and maintained daily, the kitchen was great fun for everything.... cooking, entertaining, and just relishing in the island flavors that emanated from this warm atmosphere. My husband particularly enjoyed the BOSE system for Ipod and the pool, which is the crown jewel of ANAKAO. Every day upon our return from the beach, the first thing we did was spritz off in the outdoor shower and then hit the solar-heated pool, which is gorgeous!!!! (And CLEAN. ALWAYS!!!) Another comfortable feature of ANAKAO is the layout....easy, great flow, and as mentioned, the pool/sitting area. PERFECT! Any special request we had, (extra beach towels, more candles, etc.), the owners were prompt and positive in their replies. All in all, we would recommend this property to those who are seeking a quality vacation of quiet, views, privacy, and the best, owners who embrace their guests with much hospitality and warmth. Christian and Sandy are truly the heart of ANAKAO. Nearby with their own private, unseen residence, Sandy and Christian's quiet, unobtrusive presence translates to this home, which in turn, speaks to all who luckily find ANAKAO......a unique property that is reminiscent of old-style hospitality but in an updated,modern way. What more could one desire? The sun always shines at ANAKAO, outside and most especially, within. We are grateful our paths crossed with Sandy and Christian because they truly represent the best of St. Bart's. Toujours, Bill and Mary Ellen Stokes
