Of all the villas in all the islands in the Caribbean, there can be few with a location to rival Alamanda Villa. Sitting on the crest of Mount Pleasant Hill, this lovely peaceful house gives the most spectacular panoramic views imaginable over the turquoise waters of Admiralty Bay and its nearby beaches and it will be hard to drag yourself away from the comfortable terraces that surround the villa.

The grounds extend to a quarter of an acre, with a wonderful array of tropical plants and shrubs. The entire outside surroundings are really well equipped with loungers, chairs, dining table, a large gas barbecue and a good size pool – all can be enjoyed in sun or in shade under the veranda. The open-plan living/dining area has vaulted ceilings and is furnished to a very high standard and features a modern kitchen with an excellent range of equipment for your dining needs.

Alamanda has three large bedrooms, all of which are ensuite – two on the ground level, either side of the lounge for privacy, and the third is at a lower level. Alamanda Villa is a home not a house and there is a real difference. This would be a superb place to spend time on the beautiful island of Bequia with some wonderful walks in the area. The excellent collection of local restaurants, shops and a choice of beaches are about 5-10 minutes’ drive away and, while renting a jeep would be advisable, taxis are easily arranged at a moment’s notice.

The villa sleeps six in great comfort but special rates are available for couples.
