Stayed Feb 9, 2024The views were fantastic and nearby beaches were private and quiet. Property was well maintained. No air conditioning but there was always a good breeze. Kitchen had everything we needed and Edwin was always quick to respond to any of our questions. It was less than a 10 minute ride to Port Elizabeth in our Mule. Cant wait to go back!

Stayed Mar 8, 2024The beautiful house is located in a very quiet corner of the idyllic island. The view from the terraces or from the rooms of the nearby sea is stunning. The kitchen is well equipped, there is even a great grill and the wing-like arrangement of the bedrooms, each with a bathroom and dressing room, makes a lot of sense. We were able to relax here fantastically.

Stayed Jan 30, 2024Edwin was very helpful in meeting us at the ferry and having us follow him to the property. It would have been difficult to find in the dark. It is definitely best to have a car to stay here. There are no restaraunts within walking distance. When the person on the drivers license got sick, we could not use our car and it took many calls to get a taxi. If arranged a day ahead it was easier. It cost $21 US each way for two of us to go from the villa to town or princess Margaret beach. The views are beautiful for sunrise and moon rise. Always a breeze which was good because there is no airconditioning. We needed to leave the doors to outside on the bedrooms open all night or it was very stuffy. One of the ceiling fans in the bedroom did not work. There were mosquito nets over the beds which also helped because the no-see-ums were a presence. Furniture is adaquate but dated and not very comfortable. We cooked two meals a day at the villa. there were plenty of pots and pans and everything we needed in the kitchen. Only two burners on the stove were working. The grill was a helpful addition.

Stayed Oct 7, 2023We loved Bequia and our stay here! The villa was nice and had everything we needed. The views are spectacular! The only drawback for our group was the lack of air conditioning in the bedrooms, as it was very hot during our stay. I’m sure it would be fine when it’s a little cooler or breezier. Overall though, our stay was amazing!

Stayed Feb 18, 2023We loved the view to the south east and always a lovely breeze. Very well equipped kitchen and comfortable space. Very sunny until about noon and no shade to be able to enjoy sitting outside on front deck. Thanks Edwin for your help.

Stayed Jan 4, 2023Loved the view and the breeze. Short walk to quiet beach and we swam every day Jan 3-Feb 11. Kitchen is well equipped and nice big fridge with ice maker. Edwin was very helpful and responded quickly to all communications. He even found some portable beach chairs for us, hard to do on this little island!

Stayed Feb 27, 2020This is our second visit to Calmando with new friends who have never been to Bequia. Once again we thoroughly enjoyed out stay. Calmando is fully equipped, bbq is a great feature, and the location up on the hill looking out over the ocean is spectacular. Because of the elevation there is a constant breeze to keep things cool and the very few bugs we encountered away. Washer and dryer a bonus which means you do not have to bring a ton of clothes and you can dry them in the breeze in no time. We chose to take the walk into town each morning ( 25 minutes ) wear you will find fabulous beaches, restaurants and friendly island residents. Edwin is always available should you have any issues. Sugar Reef is less than a 10 minute walk and the Turtle Sanctuary about 20. 2 years in a row and we will be back.

Stayed Mar 26, 2019The property in Bequia was exactly as it had been described. Edwin was on hand whenever needed, and Thaddeus proved to be an excellent taxi service ferrying us in and out of the centre. Steve
