F. THE COST OF ACCOMMODATION

A POLAROID-INSPIRED VILLA

4.1.

In these days of digital cameras and camera phones, Polaroid cameras may seem unimportant, but it is not so in St Barth, where the iconic camera plays a key role in the interior design of a hotel known as "Villa Polaroid". For example, in one of the bedrooms, seven Polaroid cameras from various generations are used as wall art inside white boxes. In another room an old camera functions as a part of a desk lamp. All around the property there are many armchairs with pillows presenting a graphic image of the camera.

The style in which the villa has been painted reminds us of the way in which a Polaroid photograph develops, with colours slowly becoming brighter as you move through the building. The white outside walls give way to brighter and warmer colours as you go inside the hotel, and the furniture is decorated in bright yellow, blue and red. It is like a rainbow which becomes more and more visible with each passing moment, just as the image on a Polaroid photo does!

4.3.

The villa's appearance is clearly one attraction for photographers but there are others, too. With views overlooking the sea and a large garden with lots of local plants such as orchids, the villa's grounds are a paradise for those wanting to take that perfect photograph. As there are also cars for hire available at the villa, you have plenty of possibilities to take photos on a sightseeing tour of the area. The prices are from 30 to 150 euros per day, depending on which car you want to rent.

4.4.

Weekly rentals of the villa start at 3,500 euros for two people, or 4,200 euros for up to six guests. In the high season, you will have to pay up to a few hundred euros more per day. The price includes a fully equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi access, and a large library with many books, CDs, and DVDs. The pictures you take during your stay will be a wonderful reminder of a special holiday that will be with you for the rest of your life.
