What celebrities own homes in St Barths?

From this view I also spotted the lavish mansions and villas that house or have housed some of the world's most powerful and famous (including the Kardashians, Dua Lipa, and Jeff Bezos).



St. Barths (Saint Barthélemy) remains the ultimate playground for the global elite in 2026, with several high-profile celebrities and billionaires owning permanent villas or estates on the island. Iconic singer Jimmy Buffett was one of the most famous long-time residents (owning a home in Lurin), and his legacy remains deeply woven into the island's culture. Supermodel Gisele Bündchen and her family have long been associated with a private estate on the island. On the business side, billionaires like Roman Abramovich (who owns the massive Gouverneur estate) and David Geffen are well-known property owners. Other frequent visitors who reportedly maintain private residences include Steve Martin, Harrison Ford, and Ellen DeGeneres. While many "A-listers" like Leonardo DiCaprio or Rihanna prefer to stay on their mega-yachts (like Geffen’s Rising Sun) during the "New Year's Eve" season, the hillside villas of areas like St. Jean and Colombier are home to a revolving door of Hollywood royalty and international business moguls who value the island's strict privacy and French-Caribbean sophistication.
