Rock Villa, Bequia: a hidden villa on an island epitomising Caribbean bliss

At Rock Villa, I almost feel like I’m hovering above the world. From my perch on a sun lounger, Friendship Bay stretches out below me – the curve of the powdery sand beach, the impossible blue of the sea and the calming lapping of the waves against the shore.

This villa is high enough to feel secluded, but never removed from the gentle rhythm of the Caribbean island of Bequia. From this spot, I can watch the sunlight stream across the bay, see boats drift in and out, and feel a warm breeze carrying the scent of sweet frangipani.
