Indochine

Privacy, peace and serenity reign at this gated and completely fenced estate, set on three beautiful acres. Indochine's electronic gate ushers you into the cobblestone courtyard, and stairs lead up to the coral stone entrance with french doors. The large foyer, sparingly furnished with magnificent Asian antiques and West Indian pieces, is set off by polished mahogany floors. Just off the foyer, at the front of Indochine, is a very spacious library with a full bath and exercise equipment; tall arched windows with curtains frame the views of the sea and gardens outside. This lovely room accommodates a queen bed, should you need a fourth bedroom suite. The bath features a graceful Asian vanity and tiled shower. A Cybex electric exercise bike and Gravitron assisted-weight pull-up machine stand ready in a corner.

On the other side of the foyer is the large air-conditioned living room, set with low cushioned settees and an armoire with a flat screen TV and DVD media system. The villa has cable TV and wireless high-speed internet throughout. On the east side of the living room are tall, arched french doors which open to a roofed and tiled terrace just outside, and on the west side, french doors lead to the sheltered alfresco garden lanai. There, antique Balinesian teak daybeds swathed in netting invite you to nap or read or have an apertif - the setting is divine and so relaxing, with ceiling fans, romantic lighting and lovely rock gardens edging the lanai.

Kitchen	Living Room

An air-conditioned dining area for eight, enclosed by french doors, adjoins the lanai, and the grand professional chef's kitchen is just beyond. The kitchen is fantastic - high-ceilinged with glass-fronted cupboards, lined with chef-quality appliances such as a large stainless steel commercial refrigerator/freezer, a butcher block chef's table, triple sinks, an 8-burner Vulcan professional range with double ovens and a griddle top, a KitchenAid mixer, and nearly all chef's tools are stocked. A bank of windows along one entire wall frame fantastic ocean views punctuated by Grass, Mingo and Thatch Cays, and Congo and Lovango islets, with the green islands of St. John, Tortola and Jost Van Dyke looming on the blue horizon. An antique Indian handpainted kitchen table is the spot for breakfast in this airy kitchen.

Three air-conditioned bedroom/bath suites are situated between the living room and the kitchen and dining room - a hallway from living room accesses the king and a queen suites, and the master suite. All bedroom/bath suites are fashioned in clean, sleek Indonesian style, each bed draped with white netting and made up in cotton bedding, and each bed featuring all-organic mattresses. Carefully-chosen Asian antiques and pristine white walls combine to create a zen feel in these so-serene rooms. The queen suite has french doors which open out to the east patio, and the king suite opens to the flat expanse of green lawn outside. Some of the beds are made from the same mahogany as the polished floors and some are antique Indonesian day beds; all are positioned to provide views that reach across the sea to the horizon without lifting your head from your pillow. The king master suite offers an adjoining dressing area with closets and a large bath with an exotic bamboo-lined alfresco shower. French doors lead from this suite out to a tiled patio, where a staircase descends through landscaping to the picturesque pool and terrace.

Entrance	View

The pool terrace, graced with a wind-sculptured tree, looks out over the grand panorama of islands to limitless ocean and sky. A path meandering through gardens leads to Indochine's meditation pavilion, a quiet and private place for personal time. Indochine is another world apart, a completely enclosed estate providing a private sanctuary of serene relaxation and tranquility. The white sand of world-famous Magens Bay Beach is just two miles down the road, but you may find you'd rather stay enveloped within the peaceful surround of Indochine, marveling at the views and listening to birdsong and to the tradewinds whispering through the trees.

The professional chef will prepare fresh cuisine for you; all meals are made from scratch, and the chef will cook and serve five meals per week included with your rental. The included meals will be 2 dinners and 3 breakfasts. Typically guests will find it convenient to start with a dinner with a buffet menu (that you specify) for the evening you arrive, a brunch the next day, and one more dinner and two more breakfasts on the schedule you choose. You pay for your groceries and beverages, and you choose which meals you'd like the chef to cook and serve (clean up after your meals is also included). Sample menus will be provided upon request. While those two dinners and three breakfasts are included in the cost of your Indochine rental, your chef can be available, with advance notice, to cook and serve more meals (up to three meals every day) - you simply need to specify what will make your stay as comfortable and as luxurious as suits you. Any extra meals are $200 each, plus the cost of your groceries. As a visitor to the island there is an enviable level of real luxury in being able to be catered to at meal time in your own villa. For the 7th or 8th guest at Indochine is the front library, where the two exercise machines are located as well, will be made into a 4th bedroom for them by the addition of a queen bed. That room has an ensuite full bath. Gustavo is Indochine's manager and caretaker. He lives in an apartment below Indochine with its own private entrance - but no part of the villa's living areas or pool area can be seen from his apartment, so your privacy at Indochina is completely assured. Ricky and Lucy, a yellow Labrador and a black Labrador, live in a kennel on the property. If you're a dog lover, they can be allowed out to play with you upon your request. They are both very good dogs, and they do not bark at all. A 7-NIGHT MINIMUM RENTAL IS REQUIRED AT INDOCHINE ALL YEAR AROUND (EXCEPT DURING THE CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR'S SEASON, WHEN A 10-NIGHT MINIMUM RENTAL IS REQUIRED.) Photography by Don Hebert
