The Liming Hotel

St Vincent and the Grenadines

The sleepy island of Bequia in St Vincent and the Grenadines – fondly referred to as the ‘island in the clouds’ – may be considered one of the Caribbean’s best-kept secrets, but with boutique hotels quietly popping up across its shores, that may not always be the case. At laidback The Liming, nine villas and suites overlook seas dotted with passing yachts, across to Mustique, and come with private pools and hot tubs. Spaces within reflect a modern Caribbean scene, with abundant light and fresh colour palettes evoking a homely feel. Around the resort, itself backed by a verdant mountainscape, it’s all about going with the flow, from dips in the freshwater pool and pootles along gilded sand to ocean-fresh and island fare at the open-air restaurant. Picnics are on hand for those looking to explore, and an on-site marina keeps things interesting without distracting from the main attraction: complete relaxation.
