We’d really rather keep this retro-chic beach hotel on the sought-after hideaway island of Bequia all to ourselves, but it’s so good we just can’t stop talking about it.

Owner Bengt Mortstedt built the place from the ground up, creating somewhere you can enjoy a true feet-in-the-sand experience without a care in the world, with its own secluded sandy beach area, fun-filled supervised activities for children, and all at fantastic value for money. Though boutique, there’s still a wide variety of accommodation, and you’re totally spoilt for choice at mealtimes too, with regularly updated menus and lots of local, fresh choices.
