Villa Xanadu – Unique Luxury Villa for Sale in Cap Estate, Saint Lucia
Discover Villa Xanadu, an extraordinary 4-bedroom villa for sale in Cap Estate, Saint Lucia, offering panoramic Caribbean Sea views, distinctive architecture, a private swimming pool and more than one acre of lush tropical grounds.
Set on the hillside at Saline Point in prestigious Cap Estate, Gros Islet, Villa Xanadu immediately stands apart for its iconic domed architecture. The property enjoys approximately 180-degree views across the Caribbean Sea, creating a spectacular backdrop for everyday island living.
With approximately 2,400 sq. ft. of living space on 1.05 acres, this one-of-a-kind Saint Lucia property combines privacy, history, character and a highly desirable location in the north of the island.
Prime Cap Estate Location
Cap Estate is one of the most sought-after residential communities in Saint Lucia real estate, occupying the scenic northern tip of the island. The approximately 1,500-acre community is known for its luxury villas, hillside residences, dramatic coastal scenery and views spanning the Caribbean Sea, Atlantic Ocean and, from certain locations, neighbouring Martinique.
Villa Xanadu occupies an elevated position surrounded by mature tropical vegetation, coconut palms and landscaped gardens. Its setting offers a wonderful sense of seclusion while remaining within convenient reach of the amenities, restaurants, beaches, shopping and entertainment of Gros Islet and Rodney Bay.
A Saint Lucia Villa With a Fascinating History
Villa Xanadu’s architecture has a story as distinctive as the property itself.
The villa was built by Archie Del Marez, a California entrepreneur and self-made millionaire who developed and patented the CMOD digital heart pacemaker. An avid sailor, Del Marez moved to Saint Lucia during the 1980s and constructed Xanadu as his private Caribbean residence.
He also acquired land around the Rodney Bay Lagoon and developed what became the famous Rodney Bay Marina, helping explain the nautical influences incorporated throughout Villa Xanadu.
The villa’s striking domes were inspired by the legendary city of Xanadu associated with Mongol ruler Kublai Khan and immortalised in Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem Kubla Khan.
The result is a property unlike the conventional Caribbean villa—a home with genuine architectural character and a fascinating connection to the development of northern Saint Lucia.
Impressive Entrance With Caribbean Sea Views
Entry is through beautiful wooden double doors leading into a generous landing area.
From the moment you enter, your attention is drawn beyond the villa toward the private swimming pool, terrace and Caribbean Sea.
A convenient guest powder room is positioned at entrance level.
Steps descend into the villa’s impressive circular, domed living area, one of the defining architectural features of the home. Large bi-fold doors open the interior to the pool terrace, allowing the indoor and outdoor spaces to flow naturally together.
Perhaps the property’s most memorable feature is the swimming pool itself, which extends into the living area and incorporates in-pool bar seating. It creates a truly distinctive entertainment space and reinforces the villa’s tropical resort-style atmosphere.
Modern Kitchen & Breakfast Bar
The adjoining kitchen has been completely modernised while complementing the villa’s character.
It features quartz countertops, a breakfast bar and extensive fitted cabinetry, providing excellent preparation and storage space.
Appliances and features include an Italian electric oven, induction cooktop, large refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, dishwasher and microwave.
The kitchen connects conveniently with the principal living and entertainment areas, making Villa Xanadu equally suited to relaxed family living and entertaining guests.
Four Bedrooms With Ensuite Bathrooms
Villa Xanadu offers four comfortable bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms.
Three guest bedrooms are located off the pool terrace, comprising two queen bedrooms and one double bedroom. Each bedroom is equipped with air conditioning, an overhead ceiling fan and fitted wardrobes.
All three benefit from newly upgraded ensuite shower rooms, providing privacy and convenience for family members and overnight guests.
Private Primary Bedroom Suite
The elevated primary bedroom suite offers additional privacy and some of Villa Xanadu’s most impressive views.
Steps lead to the king-size bedroom, which features air conditioning, an overhead fan and a spacious walk-in closet.
The ensuite bathroom includes a walk-in shower, large bathtub, washbasin and WC.
A private balcony overlooks the pool and captures magnificent views of the Caribbean Sea—the perfect setting for morning coffee, sunset drinks or simply enjoying the villa’s exceptional coastal surroundings.
A separate air-conditioned office adds valuable workspace for owners working remotely or managing business from home.
Private Pool & Tropical Grounds
At the heart of the property is its private swimming pool and expansive outdoor terrace.
The elevated hillside position takes full advantage of the Caribbean setting, with the pool and entertainment spaces enjoying sweeping sea views. Mature coconut palms, tropical plants and established gardens enhance the villa’s privacy and relaxed atmosphere.
With approximately 45,918 sq. ft. of land, Villa Xanadu offers significantly more outdoor space than many residential properties in northern Saint Lucia.
