The Frangipani hotel is
located along the "Belmont walkway", Bequia,
the closest to the town Port Elizabeth. It has been a family estate since the
beginning of the last century and is now beautifully restored as a
hotel, bar and restaurant. Many people return to this home away from home year
after year.
The rooms clearly fall in two
categories: luxury accommodation consists of 10 comfortable garden cottages
constructed of local stone and tropical hardwood. Each has its own bathroom,
bedroom and deck and 6 of them have an additional dressing room. Economy
accommodation are the simple rooms upstairs in the old family house (with shared
bathroom).
The Frangipani waterfront
restaurant and bar are the most popular meeting place for visitors and locals
alike, especially on the weekly "jump up" night on Thursdays with live
steelband and BBQ. The restaurant offers international and Caribbean
cuisine and the selection of delicious tropical cocktails at the bar is
definitely worth your attention!
Nearby: the town of Port
Elizabeth with its sometimes bustling waterfront, many other bars, restaurants
and boutiques, tennis court, diveshops, kayak/windsurf rental, car/bike rental
and the lovely beaches in Admiralty bay are just a short walk or water taxi ride
away!
