Spring Bay Beachfront Land
The beachfront portion of the estate forms one of the most valuable undeveloped coastal tracts on Bequia. It consists of level land laid out as a mature palm grove, with a long, natural sandy shoreline and open views across Spring Bay.
This is one of only a handful of principal beach areas on the island, making it exceptionally scarce and highly sought after. The land benefits from direct road access along its western boundary, electricity supply, and communications at the roadside.
Previous planning permission was granted for a multi-unit development, with several units already constructed within one pod and further development historically approved. It is widely anticipated that new planning submissions would be received favourably, reflecting the site’s zoning, access, and established development precedent.
Development & Future Potential
The combined estate offers exceptional flexibility. It may be retained as a boutique hotel with beachfront expansion, developed into a larger hospitality or wellness destination, or transformed into a singular private beachfront-and-hillside family estate. There are no restrictive covenants, and both the hotel land and beachfront land benefit from strong planning history.
Utilities & Infrastructure
The estate is well equipped for both hospitality and residential use, with:
- Electricity and maintained road access
- Cable and Wi-Fi availability
- Extensive rainwater catchment and concrete storage tanks
- Freshwater well
- Solar water heating
- Commercial kitchen and laundry facilities
Central Grenadines Connectivity
Bequia occupies a strategic position within the Grenadines, with easy access by air and sea. Mustique lies approximately 9 miles away by boat, with Canouan further to the south. Regular ferry services connect Bequia to mainland Saint Vincent, with onward direct flights to the UK and US, while regional flights link Bequia to Barbados and Saint Lucia.
A Rare Unified Offering
Opportunities to acquire a fully operational hotel, extensive development land, and prime beachfront as a single estate are now exceptionally rare in the Grenadines. Firefly Hotel Estate & Spring Bay Beachfront offers a compelling combination of income, lifestyle, location, and future potential—an enduring asset in one of the Caribbean’s most authentic island settings.
