Bequia Beach Hotel and Bequia itself is time well spent. I am still kicking myself that I did not stay longer. It was paradise found and now I long for more. The owner Bengt, who frequents the hotel, mingles and connects with guests and his friendly and professional staff make this a phenomenal experience. The attention to detail is seen in the stylish, eclectic-Caribbean décor, beautifully manicured property and right down to the fact that every sheet and napkin is hand ironed on the property. Shay who works on the beach/water sport recreation was all smiles, helpful and did not judge my stand up paddles board skills (or lack of), Donna from housekeeping found sunscreen and après lotion for me when I ran out! And the front desk staff is the sweetest and so helpful.
I enjoyed the sunset cruise on the hotel owned superyacht “Star of the Sea” and the bartender Peter (who also tends bar at the hotel), immediately remembered my friends and my drink. It was the dot on the ‘i’ in impeccable service.
The hotel itself, the staff and small beautiful, but vibrant island make this a location that I plan to return to with friends. Sooner than later. I feel I found a gem in the Caribbean that no one knows about, which is partly why I nearly hesitate to share and write a review. However, the undeniably above and beyond service I got to...Bequia Beach Hotel and Bequia itself is time well spent. I am still kicking myself that I did not stay longer.

Tips:
-Explore the island and all the views.
-Jack’s Beach Bar, walk or take hotel shuttle over to the hotel beach bar on opposite side of island.
-Take part in the morning yoga sessions that are held outside on a platform by the beach. I don’t do yoga on the regular, but really enjoyed it.
Other:
-Superb, spotless bathroom and rooms
-Island taxis are all charming pickup trucks that you hop in the back of. Makes this island even more fun and adventures.
-WIFI is excellent, although I recommend turning off all distractions and exploring and getting to know new friends on Bequia.
