Why Go

Casa de la Playa — House of the Beach — names its defining feature. Five bedrooms, each with beach views and direct beach access, front Baie Longue's mile of pristine white sand. With a private pool, lush gardens, and staff handling daily maintenance, this is the kind of Caribbean estate that functions as a self-contained private resort for up to ten guests.

The Experience

The five en-suite bedrooms distribute across a layout that gives each room its own beach relationship — private access, personal views, and the sound of waves as a natural sleep aid. The architecture emphasizes estate-scale living: spacious common areas where groups gather, private retreats where couples disconnect, and a garden-to-beach flow that makes the Caribbean your living room extension. Staff including a poolman, housekeeper, and gardener handle daily operations. The property welcomes children, making it one of the family-friendlier luxury villas in the Terres Basses market where many properties restrict younger guests. The private pool provides the fresh-water alternative when the beach gets windy. My Private Chef Laura operates throughout Terres Basses for in-villa dining. Plum Bay's wild coastline is accessible nearby for exploration. Dany's at Cupecoy Beach Bar provides casual dining on cliff-beach sand.

What to Try

Set up a beach barbecue on Baie Longue using the estate's outdoor facilities. Have each bedroom's guests choose a different beach section for morning swimming, then regroup at the pool for lunch. Book Private Chef Laura for a farewell dinner on the last night.

Insider Tip

Casa de la Playa's five-bedroom layout with individual beach access means you can rent it as a multi-family compound where each family gets their own suite and beach section. The per-family cost at five couples or families often matches a two-bedroom premium rental — making it unexpectedly affordable for the luxury level delivered.
