Having been traveling to St.Barts for over 20 years I have stayed at many villas. This villa was the first that was totally air conditioned inside, other than just the bedrooms. Not that we spent much time inside but it was nice coming back from the beach, jumping in the pool and then inside to cool off getting ready to go off to dinner..... The villa was clean upon arrive and the maid came each day. The view is wonderful and the sunset was near perfect each day. The pool area is very nice, and you have serval different sitting areas, one with a gas grill.

The service provided by Guillaume and Olivia at Happy Villa was excellent. They are eager to please and helpful at every turn. They picked us up with our rental car at the ferry, helped us with restaurants, baby sitters, tennis reservations and more. The Villa is beautiful, clean, and altogether perfect. The views are amazing (even better than the pictures). The villa had everything that we needed, and Lorient proved to be a perfect central location. Our favorite part of the villa was sitting outside in the evening watching the lights over Lorient and St. Jean.

The villa was even better than what was portrayed on the web site in that the view from the property was better than pictured. Of course seeing things in person usually is better than the pictures - especially when it is 81 degrees! The view of Lorient and St. Jean harbors as well as St. Martin and anguilla are great! We were met on time at the airport by Guillaume who drove us to the villa. It was very clean and there was water, beer, Coke, a bottle of Champagne, some nuts and olives in the frig. While small, the villa provided all that we needed. I researched many villas on the island and there are not that many smaller rentals in this price range. The villa does not have a dishwasher. Since we do cook some meals at ourselves, we do miss not having that, but as it turns out, part of their daily maid service (included in the cost) includes washing the dishes (be sure to tip her well at the end of your stay - she was a very nice, Christian woman). The villa only has French TV. It has a good Wi-Fi connection. It is not high speed, but it was very good for most everything except connecting to our Dish DVR back home. If you like a hard mattress, then you will like the bed. If you like a soft mattress, this will take a night or more to get used to. The web site this is a queen bed, but it seems like a king. Oh, by the way, have a four wheel drive to get here, or for exploring really any part of the island. There are some steep roads. If you will be staying here in the near future, you will likely have to put up with construction noise a few blocks away. Not much you can do about that except enjoy the quiet on the weekends. There was not much noise on our last day, Friday, so perhaps the noisiest work is over. In general, the location was private and quiet, with just some occasional traffic noise. No complaints. This really was a fantastic little villa, about a 5 min. drive from St. Jean, or a 10 min. drive from Gustavia. Highly recommended for a couple.

Me and my husband stayed at Villa Coral for 8 nights and loved every single minute of it. The location of the Villa was just perfect and very easily accessible right off the main road. At night, the road has road lights and the Villa is stunning with all of the lighting on. It has a perfect pool with night time mood lighting and a little lounge/relaxation area. It also offers a little garden with barbecue/gas grill. The Views were also amazing!!! Villa has 2 bedrooms, one for adults and the other bedroom is decorated for children. We definitely enjoyed it and will gladly return next year . Highly recommend!
