Spring Hotel Bequia

My second stay at The Spring Hotel, I was insistent on staying there following a perfect visit last year. It is a beautiful hotel with amazing views. Unfortunately the experience was tainted by some of the restaurant/bar staff, they were so 'off', looked bored, were not welcoming when ordering drinks, didn't smile, leaned around on mobile phones so that we felt we were inconveniencing them to ask for a menu or a drink, didn't say please or thankyou, unapologetic when getting orders wrong or them taking long. It made us feel really uncomfortable on occasion, we could not believe they would choose to be in a service role when they clearly didn't enjoy it. I'm sad to say it stopped us using the bar in the evenings or eating in the restaurant after the first night experience. In contrast we must call out Jason on reception and Sophie in the restaurant who were both great. Jason assisted me extensively prior to arrival and was the warmest welcome ever when we arrived, along with the gentlemen that assisted with bags and cases. Sophie was a ray of sunshine, so friendly, smiley, nothing was too much, chatty and when/if she forgot anything so apologetic and we didn't even mind because she was so nice. Thank you for her bringing the good vibes.

Excellent staff We intend to book this venue the next time we are in Bequai

We were two couples who throughly enjoyed our stay at Spring Hotel; we were nine nights in the Bequia Suite the other couple 4 in the Canouan Suite both overlooking the sea from the hillside. Beautifully appointed rooms are comfortable with good AC and amenities. Keep in mind the hotel is on a hillside and there may be steps up or down to the rooms and public areas. The pool is beautiful and the included breakfast, although not varied at all, was good. There is a hot water machine in the room with teabags only. Dining at the restaurant several times was convenient with most of the staff friendly. Wine options are pretty minimal. I would stress the need for a rental car if you are there for a few days. The free shuttle they run to the harbor/downtown several times a day is very helpful but the freedom we had with a car was the best as the location is pretty remote. There is nothing in a realistic walking distance. Would we stay here again? In a heartbeat!
