Fodor's Expert Review Firefly Estate Bequia
VC0400, St. Vincent and the Grenadines Fodor's Choice
This small inn, mainly suited to adults (although kids are welcome), is about 2 miles (3 km) north of Port Elizabeth on a 28-acre sugar plantation that dates from the late 18th century. Four stunning guest rooms, a cottage, and a villa—all decorated in a contemporary style—are tucked into the side of a hill overlooking endless coconut palms, the only banana plantation on Bequia, and the beach at Spring Bay. Meals are served in the Great House Restaurant, which also welcomes non-guests. Strolling down to the beach, you'll pass the ruins of the original sugar factory.
PROS
- exquisitely designed rooms with fabulous views
- personalized service
- good restaurant and friendly bar
CONS
- five-minute walk to the beach and tennis court
- you'll want to rent a vehicle to get around
- negotiating steep hillside and steps to upper-floor rooms daunting for those with mobility impairments
