Park Bay House

Park Bay House will delight you with stunning views and the soothing chorus of waves breaking over the offshore reef. The spacious oceanfront villa sleeps up to eight people comfortably in four bedrooms. Unique among Bequia villa rentals, Park Bay House affords complete privacy, surrounded by splendid beaches and pristine woodlands, all just ten minutes from town. 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. Relaxing on the well-shaded porches, you feel like you're floating over the beautiful ocean, caressed by the trade winds...and at night the stars explode from the perfect darkness that surrounds you. Park Bay House is a truly special place, giving you the best that Bequia has to offer: lovely beaches, unspoiled wilderness, and the constant cooling trade winds. The house is built in traditional West Indian style from tropical hardwood and native stone. With four bedrooms and three baths, the two-story villa is perfect for both large and small groups. Seven beds accommodate up to eight people comfortably, while two living rooms, two expansive porches, and a large courtyard ensure plenty of space and privacy. Each of the villa's bedrooms has a distinctive character, and all the beds are fitted with high-quality mattresses and fine linens to provide luxurious comfort. Upstairs is a master bedroom with an antique four-poster king bed and a second bedroom with twin beds. Downstairs are two more bedrooms, one with a queen bed and a twin-size day bed, and one with two twin beds that can be joined to form a king-width bed. All the rooms have fabulous views. The living rooms and front bedrooms offer spectacular views of the sea, with the neighboring Grenadine islands on the horizon. The rear bedrooms look out at the lovely rising hills, accompanied by soft wind rustling through the trees. Everywhere in the house is peaceful, serene, and private. Both floors have a large living room filled with comfortable furniture, opening onto well-shaded porches where lounge chairs invite you to soak up the view. The upstairs porch wraps around the side of the house, where you can sunbathe during the day and stargaze at night under delightfully dark skies. To the rear of the house lies a stone courtyard that's a perfect location for outdoor eating, playing, and relaxing. Or you can just sway in the hammock in the shade of the trees and doze to the gentle sounds of the surf. Park Bay House is surrounded by miles of stunning coastline and hundreds of acres of untouched forest. At your doorstep is beautiful Park Bay, whose shallow water and protective reef make it ideal for wading and swimming. From the property you can step over the narrow rocky shoreline and dive into the bay's crystal-clear warm water, where you can swim, snorkel, or just wade around. The bay has patches of sandy bottom where you can comfortably bob around in the gentle waves, and the chest-deep water makes for safe swimming for adults. The sandy beach at the foot of the driveway has calm tide pools perfect for young children, formed by a rocky reef just offshore that blocks the waves. When the kids are done swimming they can visit the Turtle Sanctuary at the far end of the bay, where sea turtles are raised for safe release. A few minutes' walk takes you to stunning Industry Bay, a palm-fringed crescent of sandy beach and calm water, with one of the best restaurants on the island. In the other direction, right out the villa's back door are hundreds of acres of unspoiled woodland, with paths leading to deserted coves and dramatic headlands. And all the rest of lovely Bequia is within easy reach. Note: we have good cell service at the house but no internet service, so you can use either your own roaming plan or a local prepaid SIM card in your unlocked devices.
