Welcome

Built on the foundations of a West Indian 18th century estate homestead, Firefly Plantation is a refreshing contrast to so many of today’s commercial and touristy hotels. Although a sister hotel to Firefly Mustique, Firefly Plantation in Bequia is very different, having it’s own unique character and charm but still with the same friendly staff, excellent food, cocktails and attentive service.

When you stay at Firefly Plantation you are staying on a 30 acre working plantation with hillsides of orchards producing oranges, grapefruit, bananas, breadfruit, guava, Bequia plums, mangos and all variety of wonderful and exotic crops.

Four beautifully appointed guest rooms are located in a separate building within the grounds providing magnificent views across the plantation, coconut groves and bay. On the edge of the plantation we also offer the “Plantation Cottage”. This has recently been completely remodelled and has two bedrooms, both with King size beds and two bathrooms. (the second bedroom can be also configured with bunk beds and/or a single bed if required). There is a comfortable lounge and kitchenette should you wish to cater for yourselves a balcony overlooking the plantation and easy access to the hotel swimming pool.

A large fresh water swimming pool invites you to spend lazy afternoons sunning yourself whilst sipping Firefly’s famous rum punch or read and relax in a hammock under the trees.

The plantation also offers a hard surface tennis court but be warned that you might share it with the odd grazing cow, escaped from a nearby pasture! Hard hats are also recommended against falling coconuts!

Truthful Asides

While the rooms are only a short walk from the main building there are many steep steps and we are not suitable for the elderly or infirmed.

The plantation is a working plantation and will always be a work in progress.
All our staff are friendly and courteous and delighted to show and explain to you about their work.

The Plantation is home to many animals, some working, some domestic pets, but all are friendly and love to meet guests!

Although the day time temperatures are hot and sunny, the plantation is set to catch the evening trade winds which frequently bring a short night time shower, this is what keeps the flora and fauna tropical green year-round, and gives the valley it’s name - Spring!
As the dining room is completely open on one side we recommend you bring a shawl for those odd cool evenings.

We do not have televisions! We want you to escape from life’s worries and cares.
Read, day dream, gaze at the stars, you will find it amazingly liberating! We can arrange in room massage or yoga instruction on request.
