Frangipani Hotel

hotel was ok, the only rooms with air con are up a steep hill (not for the faint hearted)we where moved to a lower room , but that was quite steep , maybe ok for younger people or very fit , the staff are lovley , we have been to Bequia many times but usually on a boat ,so decided to go on land this time ,

Ich liebe diesen Ort! Genau so habe ich mir ein paar Tage Karibik vorgestellt. Einschließlich der Einschränkungen, wie z.B. zeitweise kein Wasser oder auch keine aircondition, dafür einen mega Blick auf das Meer bzw. Port Elisabet.
Lunch, Dinner oder an der Bar DIREKT am Wasser ist schon sehr sehr cool!
Ich empfehle das Frangipani wärmstens allen, welche nicht wert auf Schickimicki, dafür auf spirit und Natürlichkeit legen.

The room and ground were super cute, clean and welcoming. Better signage would have been helpful when driving, parking and navigating to the reception area.

I stayed in a beautiful room high up looking over the bay. I found the balcony a nice place to read whilst looking at all the boats, ships, and yachts below.

The team in reception, the restaurant, and bar were always very polite. I recall how sympathetic they were when my bank kept me on the phone for 20 minutes just to pay a bill.

I learned from Bequia Hertigage Museum, it is also historic, being the first hotel on the island some 80 years ago when the only vistors were those on Yachts.

I shall definitely be back!

Bathroom needs an update, noise

This hotel was wonderful. Our room was large with a beautiful view. It’s convenient to talk to from the port and to other restaurants and parts of the beach. The service was extremely slow at the restaurant but that’s to be expected everywhere in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

The room was very dirty and smell funky. There was lots of worms crawling on the floor, bed and ceiling. Also lots of bad mosquitoes, trust me you will not get a comfortable night rest.

The true authentic Caribbean with a relaxed charm , character and ambience…. The staff are exceptionally good and make everything flow seamlessly to ensure a wonderful stay. Lovely food , bar and great coffee shop next door where one can relax , chill, read or just enjoy the fabulous views.

Nice people, but no A/C, (2 rooms only) no window glass or screens, and wicked mosquitos. Restaurant might open, might not.

The room was lovely and the view was spectacular. However, I had messaged the hotel to say that I was arriving on the last ferry which is after reception hours and was told not to worry that someone would be there to check me in. I messaged them particularly because of reviews I had read. Yet when we arrived, reception was dark. We called and knocked for 30 minutes before a bystander took my husband around the back to find the manager. When we got to the room there was no toilet paper and the bathroom was flooded. They were responsive to my call regarding the bathroom. Breakfast Sunday was late in getting started, but we were allowed to check out at noon, which was helpful as we had to go outside the hotel to find breakfast. My husband did love the room, but I am having a hard time getting over the initial negative impression. It is a shame really as it has so much potential.

Sadness becomes the Frangipani
It is bittersweet to write this review, as I have a long history with the Frangipani Hotel, dating back 38 years, with my most recent visit approximately 17 years ago. Time moves on, and changes are inevitable, but unfortunately, the Frangi has allowed itself to slip into a state of disrepair. While it remains a beloved gathering spot for locals and tourists, staying at the hotel has become fraught with challenges.

During my stay, I encountered daily inconveniences, including no water or hot water, stained bath towels, and noise from music drifting uphill into rooms that offered little respite. Despite raising these concerns with the front office—who were polite and attentive—they provided few solutions, apart from replacing the towels on one occasion.

This experience was disheartening for someone who has stayed here many times and once could not imagine staying anywhere else on Bequia. Regrettably, I will choose a different option for my next visit.

That said, credit must be given where it is due. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with well-made beds, and the restaurant seems to be their primary focus, offering enjoyable meals. Sadly, the charm and care that once defined the Frangi have faded, leaving loyal guests like me disappointed.

MAJOR POINTS:
• Sporadic water supply: The water supply was inconsistent, with disruptions occurring daily, making basic needs a challenge.
• Toilet issues: The toilet required daily repairs, adding unn

The price was far too high, as the room had no fridge,TV or most important no air con.
The whole app needed serious upgrading. The mosquitos were a problem. Fly screens would be the answer.
We were up at 8.00am for breakfast, no sign for at least 20 minutes. Then we only had coffee and toast as we had a ferry to catch

It is a very nice property. Unfortunately there was only one sheet and the air was very cold, so I had bad nights, and turning up the temperature was risking mosquito bites. The mosquito net is not appropriate for the size of the bed. The bed needs a good adjustment and it makes a hard sound every time you move or sit down. We understand that the water pressure may be low, but bathing took longer than usual, however it was warm which contrasted with the cold air in that room. Apart from everything, it was very nice, comfortable, with a nice view, we always had little birds by the window and a chicken that walks around the back of the hotel. Christine (I think that is her name), is at the reception, as a waitress, attentive to details, was very kind and helped us find a solution to a problem that we had.

There was limited lightning and safe did not work. The room needed to be updated
The staff was pleasant and helpful.

The Frangipani hotel is the most beautiful hotel just on the outskirts of town.
The staff are incredibly friendly and very helpful.
My room had the best view across the bay, and was always kept clean and tidy.
Would definitely recommend!

Perfect location on Belmont Walkway. Kind, helpful & friendly staff. Thank you.

The bathrooms and tiolets need to clean properly for the cost being charge for a room

Muy malo, el edificio es viejo, los baños asquerosos y afuera de las habitaciones, las habitaciones solo tienen un abanico de pedestal, no tienen abanico de techo como promete , en la noche la puerta principal se queda abierta y no hay seguridad ni dejan ningún contacto para ayuda ni asistencia, la verdad no volvería a ese lugar.

Le chien de l’explicitant mord les clients

Great Hotel that has it all . The room 17 and 18 are the best view and comfort . Hôtel restaurant and coffee shop are simply the best , menu is nice and prices are fare .
Enjoy the ocean side walk to Queen Elizabeth beach and local food resto and beach bars .
Bequia is a jewel and touch my heart 🌈🍍🌠
