A cooling Caribbean breeze is usually present and the Gazebo and large parasols provide areas of shade for the hottest part of the day.
As the evening sun slowly sets and you look out over the Caribbean Sea, you cannot fail to be impressed. Sunsets from here can be amazing with the elusive ’Green Flash’ often being seen. The setting is simply perfect and with underwater pool lights and discreet Led lighting enhancing the evening ambiance, the special moment can continue long after the sun has set.

Summary: What a delightful stay we had at the Tropical Hideaway! This small boutique hotel is perfect for a quiet and secluded getaway. The owners, Julie and Martin Mansfield, have put a big potion of their souls and lives into this beautiful property and are the epitome of gracious hosts. I won't go into detail here, but you have to read their story which is on the TH website. Now to the title of my review. Martin designed an infinity pool which is the best we have ever seen. Our nephew, who is 27, came to Bequia to join us in a sailing cruise with Tradewinds Cruise Club (who recommended the TH to us) and we met him at the ferry dock to have him join us at our hotel for the day. I explained to him he was about to experience the best bar stool in the world. He had several questions, but I just said "wait, you'll see". The pool at TH has a little bar with swim up bar stools. Now the bar is self serve, so we put some beers in the refrigerator to have when visiting the pool. When our nephew came to the pool I asked him to sit at the bar right away and I set a beer on the bar for him and said "OK, now turn around and look" and his view over the edge of the infinity pool blended perfectly into the beautiful Bequia harbor and the Caribbean beyond. His comment was "Awesome! You are perfectly right. This has to be the best barstool in the world!" The Tropical Hideaway is a unique and beautiful place to stay when visiting Bequia and a visit there is good enough reason to visit this small but beautiful island. And the Mansfields do everything possible to make sure your visit is a memorable one. Visit their website to learn more about their rooms and services and plan a visit. You will be glad you did!

Summary: I spent about two weeks in the Pool House room at Tropical Hideaways in Bequia in May-June of 2016. My expectations were high when I arrived based on the reviews and pictures I had seen, but everything was even better than I had hoped. The Pool House room was huge and had everything I needed and then some. There are two sliding doors on each end and two patios. The other exits come up into the wet bar for the pool. I could come from the pool directly into the bathroom and not drip all over the living room. The pool was as pictured and an absolutely perfect temperature for long term lounging, not cold when you stepped in but not hot so you could stay in the water all day. The hosts Martin and Julie were helpful from the first contact through the ride to the airport. They answered all my early emails promptly, cheerfully accommodated a change to my reservations dates, and were attentive but not intrusive throughout my stay. The provisions store they have was particularly helpful. They have all the basics at good prices and even cook some lovely one-dish meals you can buy from them. The fish pie was my favorite. You can get them fresh on cooking day or frozen later. And they come in heavy glass dishes so you can heat or reheat them in the oven or the microwave. Add some veggies from town and some wine and dinner is done. The staff was also very friendly and seemed quite happy and well-treated which is good to see. I was diving most mornings with Dive Bequia (also highly recommended), had lunch in town and then spent the afternoon in the pool before sunset from my patio. Truly a lovely stay at the coolest place I have ever stayed, and I travel a LOT. It is a little expensive, but I felt like I got more than my moneys worth. The pool alone was worth the price. And a pool with no children - priceless. I was there during low season and had it to myself for about three or four days during my stay. It was fun when other people came as well. The place attracts a high end type of person I think. Everyone was very nice and very interesting. All in all, one of my best ever vacations thanks to Martin and Julie and their lovely home.

Summary: This was our second visit to Tropical Hideaway and the owners Martin and Julie made us feel very welcome on our return. The location, pool, views and accommodation were just as good as we remembered them from 2015. The local restaurants and bars reflect the nature of Bequia, very relaxed with good quality food - something for every age group. Visiting nearby Islands and Cays is made easy due to the range of ferries, boats and water taxis available at the nearby harbor. We have already booked to return next year.

Summary: It is our fourth time to Tropical Hideaway, this is home away from home. Julie & Martin are extremely attentive to their guests and every year they improve their villa, rooms and services (small store at the villa with just about everything you can need) to facilitate your stay. Georgeous villa, rooms, view, pool... 20 min. Steep Walk to best beaches; lower bay, princess Margaret and to town Boardwalk. Taxi's are reasonable prices if you don't feel to walk. Favorite restaurants for lunch The reef and Jack Bar. Dinner; Fernando, L'Auberge, Sugar Reef, Figue tree, Mac's. All in all a beautiful get away and would recommend it to anyone who needs a little relaxation, you will definitely see us again!

Summary: We rented out the entire property for a week in July to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We brought along our five children and both sets of grandparents. From the moment we booked this trip, Martin and Julie were so helpful answering the many questions we had. My husband and I stayed in the Penthouse Suite. The huge bed was so comfortable and the balcony that overlooks the pool and ocean is simply breathtaking. We enjoyed relaxing at night on the balcony with the entire family, swinging in the hammocks with the cool breeze. We did not have any problems with bugs or mosquitos while staying at Tropical Hideaway, although we did experience them while eating at some of the outdoor restaurants right on the beach. The Penthouse Suite has a full-sized refrigerator along with a stove and plenty of room for cooking. My parents stayed in the Palm Cottage which is on the same level as the pool and the Infinity Cottage, where my in-laws stayed. These cottages are better suited to people who have difficulty climbing stairs and were perfect for our parents. The rooms were well-equipped to meet all of their needs. Our three boys stayed in the Pool House and it was huge. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own space and was very privately situated below the infinity pool. Our girls stayed in the Hibiscus Cottage, which is roughly 60 steps down from the pool area. It is not a room for someone who has a difficult time climbing stairs, but if that's not an issue, you can't beat the privacy and view that this cottage offers! I can't say enough about how accommodating Martin and Julie were. Martin arranged for us to hire a minister to preside over our vow renewal ceremony and he even took photos for us! Julie ordered flowers for me from St. Vincent and they were perfect! They helped us arrange taxi rides and even provided two cell phones for our use while staying at Tropical Hideaway. I would highly recommend hiring Elfic the "Singing Chef" to cater a meal. It was well worth the price and his singing was amazing. It was the most memorable part of our trip. The taxi drivers were readily available and would generally arrive withing 10 minutes of our phoning. This was a fabulous vacation and we couldn't have asked for a better experience working with Martin and Julie!

Summary: My husband and I were blown away by the Tropical Hideaway property. The owners, Martin & Julie were gracious and accommodating for the booking throughout the entire stay. They are truly remarkable people as you will see if you choose to stay at their property and learn about their journey. The rental is clean, new, and comfortable. The furnishings are top quality and state of the art including the sound systems, TV's and dependable wifi. The infinity pool offers more than a swim as you can drink and dine at the swim up bar, nap on the veranda poolside bed or rest on the edge to gaze at the harbor, bay, mountains and sunset. The grounds are pristine and well manicured. Every step on the pathways offers a unique view overlooking charming Bequia harbor. My packing advice is to pack light as the island is very casual. If you like to cook and eat in occasionally, bring restaurant packets of condiments, peanut butter, and pre-packaged spices as this will save you buying large quantities at the small-rather limited-island grocers. I recommend ordering fresh bread from 'The Upper Crust' as they will deliver piping hot baked goods for free with 24 hour notice. There are excellent restaurants to choose from and a beach front favorite for lunch is Jack's Bar. This is located on Princess Margaret beach which is at the bottoms of the hill. Gorgeous Caribbean waters, clean, and sparsely populated with people. Astonishing! Bring anti-itch ointment if you are prone to mosquito bites. Julie & Martin keep the property sprayed and plenty of personal spray on hand but when you venture off the property, you are bound to get a bite or two. Comfortable shoes such as hiking all terrains are best as the journey up and down the mountain to the rental property is steep and tiresome. Plan for 25-30 EC per trip if you hire a cab (and you will!) This is a dream property owned by wonderful people. You won't be disappointed.

Summary: My fiancee & I wanted to get married in Bequia and, after reading all the fantastic reviews, chose to stay at Tropical Hideaway for our wedding in Paradise. Tropical Hideaway is a Mustique quality property, but with Bequia prices and friendliness & it proved to be the perfect venue for our wedding. We married on the pool deck with a lovely local lay preacher conducting the ceremony. Then it was up the grand coral stone staircase to the huge veranda where we had a magnificent dinner prepared by a local restaurant, spent an afternoon having photographs taken around the Villa and it’s tropical gardens and finally some sunset snaps taken on Princess Margaret Beach. Martin & Julie organised everything and it was done to perfection. A live band came on the evening as did around 50 friends and guests and once again Martin & Julie organised the champagne, food and drinks for us. A local restaurant produced our Caribbean feast. The band played into the early morning hours. Whilst at Tropical Hideaway we were lucky enough to experience and stay in both the Infinity Room and the Penthouse Suite. Infinity is an amazing room with a huge, stone bath feature (easily large enough to take 2 adults!). It is virtually just a few steps away from the gigantic swimming pool which is the largest at any villa that we have ever seen. The infinity pool is rumoured as being one of the top 10 'best infinity pools in the entire Caribbean' Google it. The pool is simply amazing and the photographs can never do the actual view from the pool, justice. The room is full of character, complete with a very comfortable four poster bed. A lot of love and care has gone into the property and Martin's attention to detail is quite remarkable, everything is finished to a very high standard. The kitchenette is very well equipped and the quality of all the tableware and cutlery etc is excellent. We even had our own ice bucket which we filled regularly from the ice-maker in the pool bar. The Penthouse Suite is absolutely fantastic! A grand spiral staircase leads you up into the huge bedroom which is fully mosquito screened & has the largest bed we have ever slept in. You then step out into a vast open air living room, complete with an impressive 40" tv. We had a terrific experience and everything that you read on the other reviews is true. We have no hesitation in recommending Tropical Hideaway as a dream destination. The property is just amazing and we will definitively be back!

Summary: The photos are beautiful, but they don't do justice to the beauty here. Getting to Bequia is work, but we forgot all about it when we opened the fridge in the Infinity Room and found fresh eggs and cheese, a bit of bubbly and beer -- a welcoming treat from owners Martin and Julie. Our first dinner on the island was a terrific omelet we made in our own room. Their advice and island recommendations were invaluable, and they hooked us up with a taxi who took us around every day. (They even have a cell phone programmed with favorite places and services.) The property has been built and designed with a keen eye for detail -- lots of stone with embedded conch shells, manicured grounds, different views from each room. We started thinking of when we could go back from the very day we arrived -- and we will! The views are stunning since you are on a hill so high that even cars are challenged. (We weren't brave enough to walk it, but i've heard it's been done!) We loved Jack's Bar, Keegan's and Tommy's. Our best meals came from Papa's -- a grilled half-lobster, beef tenderloin, beer-battered fish and chips, grilled barracuda. The beaches were quiet; the Bequians were genuine and nice. I almost hate to write this review, because i want to keep my piece of paradise all to myself! Sounds cliched, but true. We loved it here ...
