Reviews for The Old Fort, Boutique Hotel & Estate

A perfect vacation!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

In March, our family of 11 stayed at the Old Fort in Bequia for a week long vacation. What a unique property! We loved the open concept house, the cobbled walls, and the spectacular views from throughout the house. We were also blown away by the master bedroom in the tower that was easily one of the nicest rooms I’ve ever stayed in. We spent a lot of time by the pool, which was the perfect place to relax and take in the ocean views. The house also had tables and seating areas scattered throughout, so there was never a shortage of places to lounge. The kitchen came fully equipped, making family dinners an easy task. And while the house felt secluded on a beautiful property, the bars, restaurants, and beaches were just a short drive away. The host was responsive, attentive, and ensured that his groundskeeper was available for anything we needed. Bequia is a small island but given the location of the property, we were happy that we rented a car. We also frequently walked into town, which was a beautiful walk that took about ~40 minutes. The Old Fort is such a unique property well suited for large groups. I would highly recommend staying here!

A truly beautiful beautiful part of the world

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 months ago

My husband and I were so excited to be invited by our dear friend for a getaway to Bequia Island. We had never visited that part of the world before. Well what an incredible place! The entire experience was just amazing! Our friendpicked us up from the Fairy and we drove up to The Old Fort where we were to spend the next week in paradise. The views are just absolutely incredible- the beautiful warm breezes , and the entire Fort just was like something out a movie. We enjoyed the quiet private estate so much - hiking- pool afternoons - romantic dinning on the patio of amazing local lobster tails- star gazing and the best sleeping with beautiful warm gentle air. The little details and historic charm of The Fort are just so special. Our host Quirin was so kind to take us around this beautiful Island and show us some of the local spots. I cannot say enough about this beautiful place- we are already planning our next visit. Thank You Beautiful Bequia See you again soon 🌴 Mindy & Peter

The views were amazing - the property rustic and very unique. The people of the town of Bequia were so accommodating. The owner is attentive and readily available. A trip back in time for sure. Getting taxi is the only way to see island for sure!

Unforgettable Trip

The Old Fort was a magical experience and one our family of 14 will never forget. We loved the house, the pool, the turtles, all of the stone and Bequia itself is an amazing island. Beautiful beaches, great culture and so many things to do. Thank you for an unforgettable trip!

A true paradise on Bequia

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 11 months ago

We spent 8 months at The Sugar House, one of the beautiful properties at the Old Fort Estate. Everything about it was spectacular! The location is wonderful in a lovely neighborhood with stunning views of the hillsides and ocean. The house itself is breathtaking. It is built in the foundation of an historic sugar mill and it is a very unique living experience. It is extremely open to the outside and yet felt very private at the same time. The furnishings are lovely and the open living room, dining room, and kitchen area is comfortable yet elegant. The kitchen is very well stocked. The house comes with about a dozen turtles that live in the backyard and we really enjoyed having them there. The owner and caretaking staff are very attentive and helpful. The house and property are even more lovely than the pictures on the website. Bequia itself is amazing. The island has first rate beaches, restaurants, and activities like snorkeling, sailing, hiking, fishing, and island hopping. The people are extremely friendly and welcoming. It is a fabulous place for a vacation and we can’t wait to return to the Sugar House.
