Sandrock Bequia
Laid back luxury living from its perfectly located ridge-top position on the southern-most tip of Bequia. Guests can enjoy both sunrise & sunset views from the beautifully landscaped grounds. The position is truly unique, with the Caribbean Sea just steps behind the property and panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean.
The villa comfortably sleeps eight with four spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms, each with an immaculate private bathroom and superlative ocean views. The main living space has a well-equipped kitchen and ample indoor/outdoor lounging space, dining area with comfortable, modern furnishings.
There are two stylish pools – the smaller infinity plunge pool on the upper deck and a larger swimming pool on the lower sun deck that measures 40ft by 20ft. Both pools are south-facing and are surrounded by natural wood decking. There are a total of eight loungers to soak up the warm Caribbean sun.
Your safety and wellbeing are very important to us and we ask that children are supervised by an adult at all times especially around unfenced areas, swimming pools, balconies and water.
Built with locally sourced materials, Sandrock is elegantly constructed using natural stone and wood throughout the four bedroom villa.
The main living space has folding doors that open out onto the stunning terraces overlooking the ocean. Modern, relaxed sofas combine to create a soft, central meeting point flanked to both the south and the north by stunning ocean vistas.
The property boasts four double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite facilities. Two of the bedrooms are situated within the main house with the second two bedrooms in adjoining cottages, ideal for extended families or small parties of friends.
Beautifully landscaped gardens are overflowing with native flowers and shrubs to blend with the mature trees of the island.

Download PDFBeautiful Bequia (pronounced bek-way) was named by the Arawak Caribs and means ‘Island of Clouds’. It is an undiscovered paradise, the Caribbean of 30 years ago.
Covering an area of just 7 square miles and with a population of only 6000 people, Bequia lies in the warm tropical waters of the Caribbean Sea. It is just a short plane hop from the ever popular Barbados and next to the renowned Mustique, both favourite islands of the rich and famous. As the largest of the Grenadine Islands, known also as the ‘Jewels of the Caribbean’, it is blessed with several pristine, natural and undeveloped white sandy beaches. The recently renovated Belmont Walkway joins three of these beautiful beaches together and meanders around two headlands offering both excellent snorkelling and a leisurely 2 mile walk passing rum bars, cafes, restaurants and small boutique style shops.
Bequia truly is a unique Island. Large enough to be interesting and exciting, yet small enough to retain its local charm and uniqueness that only a small ‘off the beaten track’ Caribbean Island can offer. Wherever you go on Bequia, you will be given the warmest of welcomes. They know you are here to relax and everyone is happy to help you have the holiday of a lifetime. If you want resort hotels, nightclubs and beaches full of sunbeds, don’t come to Bequia. If you want to discover the undiscovered, visit our beautiful Island, enjoy the uncrowded pristine white sandy beaches, swim and snorkel in our safe and warm Caribbean waters and experience the genuine friendliness of the local Bequian people.
Bequia has a wonderful, varied, assortment of beaches for swimming, snorkeling, and sunning. Their best part… you will never find a crowd! Inquire locally for current conditions and characteristics of each beach, as they can change due to weather and other factors. There are even some remote beaches if you fancy the hike. Sunscreen, hats and cover-up are advised and drink plenty of water, to remain hydrated in the glorious sunny weather.
Bequia has a number of great restaurants, bars and cafés. Whether your preference is for international or regional dishes, there is sure to be something for you. A selection of excellent eateries serves everything from simple snacks and light bites to full Caribbean lunches and delicious fine dining. Freshly caught seafood including fish, lobster and conch is always a great option, but you will find everything from Italian pizzas, American hamburgers and world class French cuisine.
There are a few small supermarkets on Bequia and several food stores selling everything from fresh bread and cheese to breakfast cereals and milk. Fresh fruit and vegetables are available from the friendly vendors who have their stores and tables along the main street and for the experienced haggler you can venture into the Rasta vegetable market for a colourful and memorable shopping experience.
You will be spoilt for choice, when wondering what to do on the island. With many attractions on Bequia and numerous tourist spots, your options include lying on the golden sands of this beautiful island, relaxing in the tropical sunshine as the cool waters of the Caribbean Sea lap at your feet. If you wish for a more active adventure, take to the sea and enjoy an exhilarating dive into crystal clear waters. With 28 dive sites around the island, you are sure to be amazed by the wrecks and shallow caves along with the schools of beautiful fish you encounter.
Sandrock is situated on a safe and calm beach making it the ideal place for swimming as well as offering the chance to experience one of Bequia’s world famous snorkelling spots adjacent to the property.
The villa is the perfect base for those seeking peace & seclusion, whilst also being within striking distance of the main amenities & shopping of Port Elizabeth, the bars/restaurants of the Belmont Walkway & the main beaches of Princess Margaret & Lower Bay. The Liming is a short walk along the beach.

Wonderful place and week of relaxation. As soon as we arrived we knew we had found exactly what we like…seclusion, peacefulness, beauty and a vibe that resets the soul. We loved having Matthew right there to provide meals and assistance with anything we needed. We snorkeled on each side of the house in our own private paradise. Don’t miss out on this experience!
We did a lot of activities on the island including scuba diving with Ron at Dive Adventures, Estate tour at Firefly, awesome views at Spring View park, boat trip to the Tobago Cays, all of the beaches (although our fav was the one in front of Sandrock). My husband who is an avid scuba diver said that Bequia has been of the best diving that he’s done in over 20 years.
I stayed at the Sandrock for 10 nights with my husband. We found it the perfect place to unwind away from busy day-to-day life. From the private pool to the glorious beaches, this place was a dream come true…
Sandrock Villa is a must visit! The property is absolutely gorgeous and the views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea are to die for!
We had a fantastic week here and didn’t want to the trip to end. The villa layout and garden/outdoor area was perfect. The pictures certainly don’t do it justice. We will definitely be going back in the future.

Each day a number of ferries depart Bequia, headed for St Vincent main island. You can get there and back within the day and there are many things to see; we recommend the Botanical Gardens in Kingstown, Dark View Falls or a hike to the top of La Soufrière volcano (we do recommend hiring a guide for this and can give you a contact for this).
We don’t have a television at Sandrock Villa, we feel the beauty of our surroundings is enough to keep us entertained. We do have good WiFi though so you can easily download or stream your favourite shows if you so wish.
We highly recommend a boat trip to the Southern Grenadines, in particularly the protected Tobago Cays Marine Park. We can give you details for boat charters or ferry services.

Sandrock Villa has large tropical gardens and sun deck, a perfect place for outdoor yoga. We recommend local yoga instructor Rae-Dawne John who can be hired to take your very own private lesson.
We also recommend trying a fishing charter, there are some great deep sea fishing sites near Saint Vincent. We can give you details for several fishing charters in the area.
If keeping your feet on solid ground is more your thing, Sandrock Villa is not far from the start of the short hike up Ma’ Peggy (Bequia’s highest point). Try this to take in some stunning views of the Grenadine islands.
