BEST VIEW ON THE ISLAND!
First the fabulous things about Letovah! And there are MANY!!! Hands down Letovah Villa has the BEST view ever! A magical location for sure! We stayed for 5 weeks! It was a wonderful place to call home as we maneuvered around the Island of Bequia and also explored the near by Islands for day trips. Letovah overlooks both the front Harbor area, Admiralty Bay and also the Atlantic side with beautiful views of Mustique Island. There was always a refreshing breeze coming out of the North. We enjoyed watching all the sailboats come and go, at night we would count the mast lights. We enjoyed many fabulous sunsets and enjoyed our time gazing at the moon and stars.
Chrystal & Tiny the property managers took the best care of us during our stay. Anything we needed was taken care of in a timely fashion. They also own the little grocery store and restaurant "Sugar Hill" right next door to the villa, we visited there often. The Grilled Lobster is a must! Also, they have the coldest little beers ever! Rosalind, our house keeper was friendly and professional and kept our space clean and enjoyable and always had a warm smile! Michael, the grounds keeper was also very friendly and his attention to detail in taking care of the gardens and the swimming pool of Letovah made our stay even more enjoyable. The space is large and open. We were only two people but could have had two other couples stay with plenty of extra space.
Now for the not so great parts: I would say that the photos on the web sight need a little updating as the villa is slightly weathered from the elements. Understandably, the sea air, salt, wind and rain do take a toll. Letovah could benefit from a fresh paint job. We enjoyed going out the many restaurants on the island but we also enjoyed staying home for some meals. The kitchen is fully equipped to cook up many meals, however the lighting inside the villa was not so great after the sun set. We soon realized we needed to eat dinner before the sun set so we could see our food. We did eat by flashlight one night. I also need to mention that there seems to be a "bike life" hangout just down the street and on occasion the motor bikes race up and down the hill. It's mostly young local boys who all seemed to be friendly enough but on the weekends especially it's a popular hangout. They all were friendly enough and would smile and wave as we passed but it could be annoying at times when you were trying to relax. Overall Letovah is a Gem!!
