Hi and welcome to Building in Bequia,
This website follows the design, construction and completion of Villa Tropical Hideaway, a Caribbean building project over a four year period on the small island of Bequia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The project is slightly different from your average building project because with this project the whole family got involved.
The five year building diary can be found under the ‘Building diary‘ page.
Update: The villa is now complete and is now taking bookings. Please visit www.tropicalhideawaybequia.com for more info.
Please feel to leave a comment or ask any questions you may have.


Your hideaway looks so beautiful! My daughter Marissa Leppek and her fiance Dave Fetherman stayed at your location in November and got engaged. Marissa would love to have her wedding on Bequia but feels that logistics for guests getting there would be difficult and expensive. If you have any ideas of how we can could offer this out to her guests and make it work. She could have up to 100 guests if everyone who says they would travel to a destination wedding would attend. As her mother my dream is to come and stay at your location for a relaxing vacation. It looks peaceful and perfect in Paradise!
