Historic 6-Bedroom Estate with Infinity Pool and Panoramic Ocean Views

The Old Fort is the historic heart of a remarkable 28-acre tropical estate in the peaceful hills of Mount Pleasant, Bequia. Originally part of an 18th-century sugar property, its buildings were carefully reconstructed using stone and timber from the original structures and designed in the timeless style of a French-Mediterranean manor.

Six bedrooms arranged across five individually designed suites comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests. The layout combines generous gathering spaces with private bedroom retreats, making the property ideal for families, groups of friends, celebrations and special occasions.

At the centre of the house is a large banquet-style kitchen and an atmospheric dining area that becomes especially enchanting in the evenings. A comfortable lounge with a fireplace, wine bar, large-screen television and Sonos sound system provides a welcoming place to relax.

Outside, terraces, balconies and shaded sitting areas overlook the tropical grounds and surrounding islands. Guests have exclusive use of the estate’s infinity pool and surrounding pool area, which includes a shallow children’s section, waterfall, natural pebble grotto, secluded plunge area and two shaded gazebos. Set apart from the main residence in a peaceful garden setting, it offers a private and tranquil place to swim and relax.

A circular outdoor bar above the pool enjoys sweeping views across the Grenadine islands, while the extensive grounds are filled with palms, fruit trees, tropical flowers and local birdlife. Scenic nature trails wind through the estate towards the rugged Atlantic coastline and the breathtaking, unspoiled beaches of Ravine Bay and Hope Bay.

The Old Fort has been featured in international publications and has welcomed guests from around the world. Its architecture, extensive grounds and memorable setting also make it well suited to weddings, retreats and private celebrations, subject to prior approval and applicable event charges.
High-speed fibre-optic internet is available throughout the property. Housekeeping is provided several times each week, and private chefs, grocery pre-stocking, vehicle rental, taxis, additional staff and private powerboat excursions can be arranged.

Additional accommodation may be available at an extra nightly rate, subject to availability.
