Park Bay House will delight you with spectacular views and the soothing chorus of waves breaking over the offshore reef. The villa is completely private without being isolated—surrounded by splendid beaches and pristine woodlands, yet only a ten-minute drive from town. And up to twelve people can sleep comfortably in the four-bedroom house, with plenty of indoor and outdoor space to accommodate large parties.
The villa offers some of the most breathtaking views on Bequia, punctuated by dramatic waves in the foreground and the neighboring Grenadine islands in the distance. Just feet from the ocean, the well-shaded porches make you feel like you’re floating over the beautiful sea, caressed by the trade winds...and at night the stars explode from the perfect darkness that surrounds you.
Pristine Nature Just Outside Your Door
Directly in front of the house is beautiful Park Bay, whose shallow water and protective reef make it ideal for wading and swimming. There’s even a sandy tide pool that’s perfect for young children. And when the kids are done splashing in the sea they can visit the Turtle Sanctuary at the far end of the bay, where sea turtles are raised for safe release, and goats, sheep, and chickens wander happily.
A few minutes’ walk down the coast takes you to palm-fringed Industry Bay, a long stretch of sandy beach and calm water, with the atmospheric Crescent Beach Inn offering food and drink. A few minutes more takes you to Spring Bay, another lovely stretch of sand and palm trees.
Surrounding Park Bay House are hundreds of acres of unspoiled woodland, traversed by paths leading to deserted coves and dramatic headlands. In fact the entire northern section of Bequia is completely undeveloped, and it lies right out your back door.
Under the crystal-clear water that surrounds the house, the coral reef offers more visual delights. Directly in front of the house you’ll find a variety of coral, fish, and other marine life, and you can drift with the current all the way to Industry Bay for a spectacular snorkeling experience.
Park Bay House offers all this pristine natural beauty without being isolated: it’s only a 10-minute drive into town on an easy, well-paved road. And after enjoying the many charms of Port Elizabeth and the rest of lovely Bequia, you can return to the serenity of your private house.
Inside the Spacious Villa
The two-story house is built in traditional West Indian style from beautiful tropical hardwood and native stone. With four bedrooms and three baths, the 2600-square-foot villa is perfect for both large and small groups. Eight beds and a sleeper sofa accommodate up to twelve people comfortably. Two living rooms, two expansive porches, and a large courtyard ensure plenty of privacy and space. And the solid, comfortable furniture throughout the house invites hours of casual relaxation.
Upstairs is a master bedroom with an antique four-poster king bed and a second bedroom with beautiful mahogany twin beds. Downstairs, the master bedroom has a romantic alcove with twin beds that can be joined to form a king-width bed, and a twin-size day bed in the sitting area. The peaceful downstairs second bedroom has a queen bed. For larger groups there’s a queen sleeper sofa in the upstairs living room and a day bed in the downstairs living room.
Stunning Views and Serene Beauty
All the rooms have fabulous views. The living rooms and master bedrooms offer spectacular views of the sea, with the neighboring islands of Mustique, Battowia, and Balliceaux on the horizon. The rear bedrooms look out at the lovely rising hills, accompanied by soft wind rustling through the trees.
Park Bay House is a truly unique property, giving you the best that Bequia has to offer...lovely beaches, unspoiled wilderness, and the constant cooling trade winds. It’s a great base for exploring the island, or just staying put and reveling in the sounds of the ocean and the caress of the sea breeze. |
