THE VILLA
Ylang Ylang is nestled in the hills just above Bequia's main anchorage, Admiralty Bay, facing west. The scenery from the villa is superb at all times, from shimmering Caribbean sea and lush green hills during the day, to the light show of yachts in the bay at night.
The villa is a newly renovated house, with two 3 bedrooms suites. Jasmin is the ground floor suite and Amaryllis is on the first floor. The villa also has a little single bedroom cottage that can be used with the Amaryllis suite.
On the grounds of the villa is an infinity edge pool and accompanying pavilion, with a full view of admiralty bay. The pavilion has a full outdoor kitchen with a professional BBQ, and lounge furniture.
While Bequia is all about relaxing and getting away from it all, each suite is outfitted with modern conveniences including cable television, wireless broadband internet and iPod docks and Hi-Fi systems.
A car is not necessary when staying at Ylang Ylang as most attractions are in walking distance, and for the ones that are further away, Bequia has excellent taxi services.It is a short walk from all the restaurants, bars and activities that line the shore of the bay.
Due to Ylang Ylang’s hillside location and general layout it is not accessible by wheelchair.
Ylang Ylang’s property manager, while not resident at the villa, is only a phone call away, and always available to handle any requests throughout your stay.

About Bequia
The tiny island of Bequia has a unique, magical charm which is hard to find anywhere else in the Caribbean. With fewer than six thousand inhabitants, it feels like home from the moment you arrive; friendliness is the watchword, and the pace is relaxed and easy-going. Don't be surprised if you are greeted with a warm hello as you walk along the street, a centuries old dependence on inter-island shipping and trading has meant that Bequians have been eagerly welcoming visitors to their shores for generations.
Bequia fulfils many dreams of the perfect small Caribbean island. Beautiful sandy beaches where more than ten people may constitute a crowd, lush green hillsides, attractive little villages, intimate, well run hotels and guest houses, hardly any traffic, places to get together and places in which to find that perfect solitude. Variety and choice on so small an island may come as a surprise, but there are both wherever you look.
Choose a holiday of total beach relaxation or exhilarating sailing and diving in some of the most beautiful waters in the world. Get to know the island on foot, or hire a car and discover so much more than just the golden beaches. Take day or overnight trips to neighbouring isles or simply fill up another perfect day doing what is increasingly necessary to unwind - nothing!
A choice of nightlife too awaits you - gourmet international cuisine, or delicious local cooking; elegant cocktails or sundowners in a local bar; a lively jump up to steel band music or a wonderfully romantic candlelit dinner far away from it all.
