A Flexible Beachside Investment Steps from Bequia’s Most Popular Beach
Just a few paces from the sands of Lower Bay Beach, Kingsville Cottages present a rare opportunity to acquire a long-established, income-producing property in one of Bequia’s most consistently sought-after visitor locations. Tucked along a quiet waterfront lane and set within mature garden grounds, the property enjoys a sense of privacy while remaining close to the beach, nearby restaurants, and Port Elizabeth—which is only approximately five minutes by car.
A Proven Rental Property with Clear, Flexible Layout
Operated successfully for over 35 years, Kingsville has developed a strong reputation as a dependable and popular holiday rental business, regularly achieving full occupancy during the high season. Its longevity reflects both the enduring appeal of Lower Bay and the practical, adaptable nature of the accommodation.
The property comprises four self-contained one-bedroom cottages, well suited to short-stay and repeat holiday guests, together with two significantly larger two-bedroom apartments positioned to the rear of the site. This separation allows for a variety of ownership strategies, including pure rental operation, mixed long- and short-term use, or an owner-occupier arrangement, where one of the larger apartments can be used as a private residence while the remaining units continue to generate income.
Comfortable, Guest-Ready Accommodation
All units are designed around relaxed Caribbean living, with open-plan interiors, good natural light, and easy flow to verandas and garden areas. Bedrooms are air-conditioned, living spaces benefit from ceiling fans, and each unit includes a fully equipped kitchen.
Solar-assisted hot water systems, established infrastructure, and flat terrain contribute to straightforward management and ease of maintenance—key factors behind the property’s sustained popularity.
Location That Consistently Performs
Lower Bay remains one of Bequia’s most visited and best-loved beaches, known for its wide stretch of sand, calm swimming conditions, and relaxed atmosphere. Accommodation within walking distance of the beach continues to be in strong demand, particularly in this part of the bay.
From Kingsville, Princess Margaret Beach is also close by, offering an alternative swimming and snorkelling spot, while Port Elizabeth and the island’s main amenities are only a short drive away. This balance of beach proximity and town access is increasingly hard to replicate.
Scope to Enhance in a Prime Setting
In addition to its established rental performance, the property offers clear potential for upgrading and extension, subject to the usual approvals. The generous layout, flat site, and desirable Lower Bay location make future improvements both practical and commercially attractive.
A Natural Moment for Transition
After more than three decades of hands-on ownership and operation, the current owners are now looking to take a step back, presenting an opportunity for a new owner to acquire a well-run property with a proven track record and meaningful future upside.
Additional Note
While the preferred option is a sale of the property as a whole due, the owner would be open to consider selling the one-bedroom or two-bedroom units as separate offerings, thus offering flexibility for buyers exploring different acquisition strategies.
