“An affordable gem! Don't look further, just book a week here!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2010

The Sea Shells in Bequia is honestly one of the best places we have ever stayed! After doing hours of research on the Internet we finally found the website (bequiaseashells.com) for this amazing and affordable guest house that has alot of character and charm. The three guest rooms are located on the property belonging to a professional architect and his wife who are exceedingly friendly hosts. Each room includes hand-designed decor and furniture, and you will be greeted by find fresh cut flowers placed on your bed and in various locations in the room.

Bath and beach towels are provided complimentary, laundry service is available, and the room will be cleaned and organized to perfection on a regular basis. The fully stocked kitchen includes everything you need to cook complete meals including a toaster, kettle and French coffee press.

We saved a lot of money by cooking breakfast and dinner in our room – with comfortable reading chairs and hammock located on our own private deck with a stellar view of the bay there was no reason to leave. We spent our nights drinking wine on the deck, listening to music and chilling out in the hammock. The plunging pool and garden patio downstairs makes the location even more appealing.

When you choose to leave, 10 mins walking gets you to either the town center or the best beach on the island - Princess Margaret beach. We enjoyed lunch at Jacks restaurant at Princess Margaret, a gorgeous outdoor venue with good prices, quality food and chilled out beach-front atmosphere with great sunset views.

It was both adventurous and romantic at the same time – a perfect 1-week getaway for our 5th anniversary. The room service came into our room while while we were out at dinner and decorated the room with flowers, candles, chocolates and a bottle of champagne!

This place is a perfect for those who want a mix of charm, comfort and adventure. I recommend brining a portable music player so you can make the most of a relaxing on the property – and be sure to say hi to Michael, Arlene, Ronita and Durshal - they will be some of the best hosts you ever met!

“Wonderful Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2010

We stayed here for 2 weeks and were not disappointed! The rooms were well kept and the owners were extremely friendly and welcoming. The view over looking the harbour were fantastic, one you could never get bored of! After talking to other holiday makers on the island it became apparent that we were very lucky with the room rate as hotels over charge on the island.
The one thing I would say is Bequia is very quiet and food in supermakets are not as cheap as you would imagine. Never the less, the holiday was amazing and we would love to come back one day!

“Gorgeous and serene, at peace”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2009

Upon arrival to Sea Shells Apartments (SSA), we were greeted by Michael who showed us around the place and invited us for drinks; however, in my haste to get down to the beach for a swim at Lower Bay, i forgot all about the drinks. After our swim, we were so tired that all we could do was to clean up and hit the large clean bed that were laced with beautiful local flowers. Vacationing on an island is second nature so we were not bothered by the few mosquitoes that buzzed around. While on Vincy our taxi driver gave us a succulent breadfruit that we steamed and fried; we ate out on the overhanging verandah and watched the ferries come and go....the 3 nites we spent at Sea Shells Apartments were absolutely glorious and will certainly make another trip as soon as possible....i recommend SSA over all for comfortability, peacefulness, and enjoyability.....Kudos, thanks, appreciation goes out to Michael and Arlen

“Beautiful Bequia…Sensational Seashells!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 August 2009

I just returned from nine sensational nights at Seashells! The apartments are beautiful, spacious, well equipped and have a stunning view of Admiralty Bay from the room and private balcony. Michael and Arlene are gracious hosts and Ronetta is so kind and kept the room beautiful. The pool is a really great addition for those days that you just want to hang at home and chill out with a good book. It’s an easy walk to the gorgeous beaches at Lower Bay and Princess Margaret (an even easier ride back up). I can’t say enough great things about the people of Bequia! Everyone was friendly, helpful and fun; I felt like I’d lived there for years and like Seashells was my home.

“A great place to relax in Bequia”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 April 2009

person found this review helpful

We really enjoyed our trip to Bequia and our room at Sea Shells. Arlene and Mike are great hosts and have build a great house.

Our one bedroom suite had a good sized patio with a fantastic view. The bathroom had good storage for all your stuff and the kitchen was the perfect size for cooking the occasional meals. There was also a BBQ down by the pool. We really enjoyed taking late evening dips in the pool before walking to town, which was about 5-10 minutes walk away.

Sea Shells is in walking distance to both Lower Bay and Princess Margaret Beach, but we even walked to Industry Bay one day.

Our trip was about relaxing and reading and we were able to do that either at the beach or on the patio with our great view.

The staff at Sea Shells was very kind and left flowers on the bed for us almost every day. They kept the room spotless.
