Firefly Estate Bequia

My fella and I were fortunate to stay at Firefly for the Christmas Holiday and through New Years, about two weeks, although it took about a day and a half to get there from Jackson, Wyoming. Really one of the best experiences I have had, and I would recommend it to anyone. It is quiet, serene and far enough away from the party scene, but close enough you can take a 10 minute taxi ride and be in the thick of it. The beach is close by, 5 minute walk, it is truly wild, no chairs or people, and really a delight to experience. We used Gunno’s Taxi Service, the entire time, and he did an excellent job taking us where we needed to go, and even picked us up early a couple of days when we went sailing, and when we had an early start for a hike up to Mt Peggy. The hospitality was very good, Liz was wonderful and very attentive to everything, and the dogs were a delight! Jack and Duke and little Hazel and Hope. We were given a complimentary drink (rum punch) upon arrival, and room service as we had come in on the later ferry from St Vincent. The room was absolutely beautiful, very spacious, clean, amazing closet and bathroom amenities, hair dryer and flat iron are provided. Great WiFi, fast and easy. The double shower is amazing, the water is hot, the hair care products and shower gel smelled divine. There was a small refrigerator in the room which was perfect for us, you can shop in town for groceries, beer, just a place to keep your snacks! The housekeeper, Judith, does a superior job EVERY DAY they make up your room, it’s perfect every day, you come back from your daily adventure and just hang out on the large lounge on the balcony, read a book, etc. The pool is also a treat, comfortable and clean, there is shade, a couple of cabanas and towels are provided in the room and at the pool in the two little cabanas. The restaurant provides a VERY LARGE breakfast every day, (get the honey lemongrass tea) and Eddie provides the very best of service both for breakfast and dinner (have the Lion Fish) and Liz did a special dinner for us the last night we were there of fresh caught yellowfin tuna carpaccio and ceviche, but all the food was excellent. Eddie was able to prepare some yogurt, granola, and honey for our early morning excursions and leave them in our fridge! Try to buy some salt at the Grenadine salt shop on the property, and if they have any left, the salt scrub, it’s absolutely amazing and smells like the ocean. Liz was a wonderful hostess, we can’t wait to come back. We didn’t want to leave!

A wonderful place! Beautiful location, FANTASTIC staff!! They will do anything to make you comfortable. Rooms are truly elegant-ours had two showers!! Breakfast (included) is multiple courses and fantastic. The chef, Leslie Anne, makes delicious meals. Poll and golf are fun and low key, nearby beach is fine as it faces east is exposed to trade winds. I’d say this is the perfect laid back Caribbean rest stop. Owner makes rounds at dinner and is delightful and responsive. Go here!

We first stayed at The Firefly 5 years ago on our first visit to Bequia. We had a wonderful experience then, so each year we return to Bequia, whilst we no longer stay there, we make it a must to visit for either lunch or dinner. It still retains its peaceful ambience and there is no better place to sip your rum punch than on their beautiful terrace overlooking the plantation gardens. This year we played 9 holes on their quirky cross country course, which was great fun and gives you a chance to enjoy their lovely garden. Lunch, as always was very well done with lots of imaginative options. I believe they offer a day ticket for US$ 45 which includes a tour of the plantation, use of the golf course and swimming pool and a 2-course lunch. It’s in the diary for next year already.

Wonderful time in Firefly estate. Out standing service , beautiful rooms and excellent chef , we will definitely go back Well located, we had such a great experience. Fantastic team, very attentive and kind

Sent email requesting dinner reservations for one of two nights. Automatic acknowledgement saying they will be back to me as soon as possible. Nothing happened. Very poor and hardly gives one confidence in anything they might do.

We have been visiting Bequia for years and always earmark a day to visit Firefly. This time we stopped by for lunch after visiting the Grenadine Salt Co next door (which was excellent). Charlotte was the most attentive and congenial bar tender and we enjoyed a selection of drinks, including their home produced Golden Apple juice. Our food was served in a timely manner; the tuna salad was particularly delicious, as was the vegetable roti. We then relaxed in comfy chairs on the quiet and peaceful terrace, the perfect place to read or enjoy quiet conversation. As has been our long-held tradition, the owner allowed us to swim in the fresh water pool after lunch. A beautiful and tranquil spot. Highly recommend!
