The Liming Bequia
Contemporary beach-chic. Clean lines, cream and white palettes, individual artworks, rainfall showers, and plunge pools — without feeling cold or corporate. Relaxed but polished. The staff know your name by day two.
Ask for the 'Picnic on Your Porch' menu — a private villa picnic that's one of the better value experiences here
Why It Matters
One of the Caribbean's smallest footprint luxury villa resorts — just 11 units on 35 acres. Every single accommodation has a private pool or hot tub. The restaurant perches literally above the sea on a circular open-air terrace. A private marina means yachties can sail straight in for dinner.
Eleven private villas and suites spread across 35 acres at Adams Bay, the southwestern tip of Bequia — the second-largest Grenadine island. The name says everything: 'liming' is Caribbean slang for the art of doing nothing, and this property takes that literally. Opened in December 2018 by a UK-Caribbean joint venture, it pairs contemporary beach-chic design (creamy whites, rattan, Hockney-esque interiors) with a sea-top circular restaurant, private marina, and the kind of seclusion where you'll often have the beach to yourself.
Where You'll Stay
4 room types available
Gingerlily Mansion House
From USD1,299 / nightThe flagship property, and a different category entirely. A five-bedroom estate sitting on the ridgeline above the resort, with views that take in Mustique and St. Vincent simultaneously. Two pools — a plunge pool at one end and a proper freshwater swimming pool at the other. Full kitchen, dining room, media room, lounge, gazebo, and lush private gardens. For families or groups of up to 10 who want their own private estate within the resort.
King
Junior Suite
From USD399 / nightThe most entry-level option, and genuinely well-suited for a couple wanting privacy on a tighter budget. Open-plan layout with a private terrace and ocean views. No infinity pool here — instead you get a private hot tub, which honestly does the job. Smart TV, AC, Bose speakers, mini-bar, Elemis toiletries.
KingOne Bedroom Villa
From USD599 / nightWhere the property really delivers. Standalone villas with a private infinity pool, generous outdoor terrace, living space, and full in-room kit.

Villas are named after nearby islands (guests have reported staying in 'Petit Martinique' and similar).
