Villa Nureyev sits perched on a hill in the southeast corner of the island of Saint-Barthélemy, a few minutes from the grounds of Hôtel Le Toiny. Designed as a veritable terrace overlooking the sea, the refinement and taste for luxury of its first owner, Rudolf Nureyev, the celebrated ballet dancer, is infused throughout this extraordinary villa. Crystal chandeliers, solid mahogany tables, velvet upholstered armchairs and oriental carpets recall the choreographer’s origins and love of beautiful objects and noble materials, while also paying homage to his life as a world traveller. Standing face-to-face with the horizon, listen as the chords of a piano float through the air and transport you into the spectacular universe of this immense artist from 20th century. The villa is indeed an ode to artistic nostalgia, yet is also fully equipped with the latest in ultramodern technological.
