The Idea

One historic building. Two private villas. Joined by a single gate — and one generous &.

Choose the Sky Villa or the Garden Villa — two complete homes on one historic property, each with its own entrance and its own view. The ampersand is our name and our promise: history & modernity, port town & sanctuary, 1873 & 2021.

Where you’ll stay

Two villas, entirely your own

The Sky Villa

The Sky Villa

Upper level

At the top of the house, cathedral ceilings frame the light — and a private deck puts the harbor on full display. Watch ships slip out at dusk, espresso in hand.

The Garden Villa

The Garden Villa

Lower level

Below, the Garden Villa opens onto a private patio in a lush tropical garden — cool, green, and completely its own, with the same considered finishes and a daybed made for long afternoons.

Where you’ll be

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

Your Hosts

A mother & a daughter — an architect & a technologist.

Ossi and Tal reimagined this 1873 building as two homes they’d want to stay in themselves — modern art, considered furniture, and no detail left to chance. Five years of hosting it later, perfection is still the house rule.

Your harbor is waiting.

Morning espresso on the deck. Ships crossing the bay below. The rest of the day is entirely yours to decide.
