What do I need to know about tipping? +
Gratuities are always gratefully accepted however there is no need for tipping unless you feel a particular member of staff has given you service above and beyond your normal expectancy. If you do wish to tip all the staff you can include the tip on your credit card when you settle your account when checking out. That way all the staff (including the dishwasher) who have contributed to your stay with us get rewarded. -
Are drinks included? +
We serve complimentary juices with breakfast. Otherwise we charge for all drinks. Generally speaking, establishments that serve high end wines and Champagnes (we have some wines over a $1000 a bottle) are never going to offer "drinks included". The only type of hotel that does that would be a "resort hotel" serving cheap generic brands of wine where if you drank all day it would only cost them a few dollars and cost you a hangover!
Cocktails and wine are expensive on Mustique due to the high import taxes imposed. Firefly is probably best priced because we are the busiest on the island and turnover more. Cocktails are about US$12 and a bottle of wine from US$50 upwards. -
Are you on the beach? +
No, 95% of the homes on Mustique are overlooking the beach on a hill or hillside to take advantage of the cooling breezes. It’s great to lay on the beach and cool off in the sea but once you want to relax on your terrace or poolside it is much better to be “catching the breeze”. Also the sand flies usually make their appearance after 4pm and will invade the areas close by. -
How far are you from the beach? +
The Firefly is situated on a hill about a hundred yards from the beach. -
How far are the other beaches? +
The island is only 3 miles by ¾ and most of the beaches are within a five minute ride or a twenty minute walk (if you are feeling energetic!) -
Can we have service on the beach? +
We can deliver drinks and set up a picnic for you anywhere on the island. There are shaded cabanas on every beach. You can pre-order or use the cell phone provided by us. -
What do you supply for us to take to the beach? +
Anything you want…Ice chest, drinks, snacks, picnics, pizza, towels, beach chairs, snorkels, fins, Frisbee, volley ball, bat & ball etc. -
Can we reserve a cabana/table on the beach? +
Yes you can. -
Is there good snorkelling on Mustique? +
There is great snorkelling. The best is right below the Firefly in Britannia Bay where the remains of the old “Snorkelling Hut” are. We supply fins and snorkels at the hotel. -
