THE RESIDENCE (ENTIRE VILLA)
Bellevue Terrasse offers you tropical living on two independent levels, each of them with a vast covered verandah. With its multiple pliable French doors, the inside and the outside living space blend into each other seamlessly, permitting to relax in the tropical breeze of the trade winds and enjoying alfresco dining.
Bellevue Terrasse’s architecture is based on the traditional tropical island concept of open spaces, surrounded by generous verandahs and covered by a spacious roof structure, as it is common in the Grenadines Islands.
Built by craftsmen from the island from a variety of local materials, the ceramic tiles from Italy, the enchanting alabaster lamps and the artwork from Latin America are all blending in in harmony.
At Bellevue Terrasse you will find a place which embraces tradition and luxury, always in consideration of the surrounding nature – by its choice of natural colours, the careful landscaping and the unspoiled local vegetation.
NOTE: This is the listing for Bellevue Terrasse (entire residence). In case you are interesting in renting a single floor only, please refer to the separate listing for this option. Even if you rent a single floor, you always will be the only party at Bellevue Terrasse.
UPPER FLOOR
About two thirds of the upper floor are dedicated to an extensive lounge area, with a fully equipped modern kitchen, a kitchen bar which seats up to 4 and a round dining table for up to 8 guests. You also can enjoy watching numerous international TV channels from a comfortable sofa in the same area.
Behind a partition wall you will find a spacious, air-conditioned master bedroom with a canopy bed and an en-suite bathroom with a natural face-stone shower.
The open space above the separation wall, the ceiling fans under the tent-like roof structure, as well as the 5 sets of French doors provide you with an unmatched flow of fresh air during day and nighttime.
Your preferred place will be the huge open verandah which integrates seamlessly with the upper floor rooms through the wide French doors. From here you can enjoy spectacular sunrises and overlook the entire Spring Bay and its surrounding tropical sceneries - or just unwind and relax in a hammock or on a comfortable chaise lounge ...
LOWER FLOOR
The lower floor has 2 bedrooms with 4-post canopy beds and en-suite bathrooms, which are fully air-conditioned. French doors off both bedrooms provide easy access to the pool deck and garden deck.
Separating the bedrooms is a convenient kitchenette and living area, with French doors leading to a spacious covered verandah and the pool deck.
POOL
The naturally shaped pool equally fits the needs of small children and adult swimmers. The ample pool deck on its outer limits is protected with a solid hardwood railing, to assure the safety of the dwellers of Bellevue Terrasse.
Relax in the lounge chairs under the sun on the pool deck – or in the shadow of the downstairs verandah, enjoy the beautiful view over Spring Bay and the islands of Battovia and Baliceaux on the horizon, and listen to the sounds of the surrounding nature… vacation at its best!
Bellevue Terrasse was designed with the safety of your children in mind. The swimming pool is equipped with a customized safety net (ASTM standard) which can be installed and removed easily within a few minutes.
(Note: the small waterfall at the pool is presently under repair - sorry!)
GARDEN DECK
The spacious garden deck connects with the pool deck through the lower floor verandah. Equipped with romantic lighting, a sink and a separate outdoor table set, this is the place to gather with your friends or to enjoy a dinner in a lush tropical setting or directly under the stars in the tropical sky.
Embedded in a tropical garden, and with a direct pathway into the surrounding untouched forests, you can’t be closer to nature than here!
LANDSCAPE AND GARDEN
At Bellevue Terrasse we tried to minimize the impact on the surrounding virgin vegetation, which can be explored on several nature trails throughout the extended property of about 2 ½ acres (about 10,000 square meter). There you might encounter the noisy but impressive chacala birds (rufous-vented chacala, ortalis ruficauda) which can be found in the entire Caribbean besides the Northern part of Bequia only in few other locations.
In the gardens around the residence you will find a beautiful selection of newly planted hibiscuses in all imaginable colours, ixoras, alamandas, bougainvilleas, crotons, buttercups, palm trees, heliconias, strelitzias, as well as the typical frangipani tree. The new little orchard soon will provide mangos, oranges, limes, mandarines, avocados, starfruits, guvas, passionfruits, bananas, breadtree fruits and a variety of other local fruits for the table.
