Overview
Cassava, Bequia, is a refined hillside estate positioned approximately 150–200 yards from the white sands of Lower Bay Beach. Designed by a renowned Mustique architect, the property serves as a turnkey investment with a verified track record in the luxury holiday rental market. It offers a rare combination of elevated privacy and direct pedestrian access to the shoreline via a private landscaped garden path.
Property Details
The villa features a four-bedroom, four-bathroom layout configured for maximum privacy and flexibility. The Primary Suite occupies the main living level, containing a timber-framed super king bed, a spa-style bathroom with a sunken bathtub, and a private balcony overlooking the bay. Two Lower-Level Guest Suites, accessed via a spiral stone staircase, feature private terraces and versatile bedding configurations (twin or king-size). A Fourth En-Suite Bedroom is located on the upper level, accessed through a sheltered central courtyard. Interior finishes include wooden flooring, white-and-steel professional kitchen surfaces, and 14-foot sliding doors that integrate the living areas with a full-width coral stone terrace.
Land and Water
The estate encompasses approximately 41,000 square feet (0.94 acres) of hillside terrain. The property includes an adjoining parcel of land available by separate negotiation, which secures the private path to the Lower Bay shoreline. Maritime assets include a newly installed private swimming pool with a shaded deck area. The terrain is a gentle hillside designed to capture cooling trade winds and panoramic western sea views.
Access and Utilities
Primary access is via a hillside road with on-site parking for up to four vehicles. The property is five minutes by car from the service hub of Port Elizabeth. Confirmed utility systems include grid electricity, air-conditioning in all bedrooms, ceiling fans throughout, and high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi. Water is managed via an on-site cistern system, and a professional-grade kitchen annex features a barbecue and outdoor catering facilities.
Lifestyle and Value
Cassava is positioned as a high-yield rental asset or a primary private estate. The "Mustique-inspired" architecture and proximity to Lower Bay and Princess Margaret Beach provide significant land-banking value in a prime Bequia sub-market. The addition of the fourth bedroom and private pool infrastructure ensures the property meets modern luxury requirements for immediate occupation or commercial operation.
