What's Nevis like?
 

Hello. I have a few destinations in mind and I have heard and read good things about Nevis.<BR>What's the consensus out there in Fodorland?<BR>Thoughtful and detailed replies welcome.

I have been to Nevis twice. (1995 & 1996) Both times I stayed at the Four Seasons. I loved it. The food was wonderful and it was absolutely luxurious. Since then, it has been updated tremendously because it was ravaged by hurricane. From what I understand, it is now better than before. I don't know much about the island besides the Four Seasons. My husband loved the 4 seasons golf course. He went exploring a little and liked the scenery. We ate off of the resort one evening and liked it.

To Sue- Did you take the launch from St. Kitts to get to the Four Seasons?<BR>I will be staying at the Four Seasons shortly and will have to take the launch.<BR>what's it like?

How expensive is the Four Seasons Nevis? Did you do a package?<BR><BR>What about the airfare - do you have to take two planes?<BR><BR>thanks<BR>

There's lots of information at:<BR>http://www.geographia.com/guestbook/kittsnevis/

If you are interested in the Four Seasons resort in Nevis, go www.fourseasons.com. I checked on the website for prices in July and the rooms were starting at $450 at night. You can't find a betterr resort than the Four seanson but it is very pricey!!

Lorraine,<BR><BR>The launch is very elegant. I have been both during the day and at night, and it is very nice. (And imho, a much better option than the teeny plane you take otherwise!)<BR>If the water is rough - unlikely this time of year - the FS will put you on a plane.<BR>The launch is very "Fantasy Island," and you get a nice view of the resort from the water as you approach. Enjoy!

Nancy-Thanks alot for the info!!

I am going to four seasons nevis in july. The rates are $325/nt for mountainview or $350/nt for oceanview. I reserved the bread & breakfast package because you also get breakfast for the same rack rates listed above. With taxes/service charges the rooms are approximately $394/nt mtnvw or $425/nt ocvw including daily breakfast for the package deal.

I goofed, the regular rack rate for the oceanfront (view) room is not $350, but $425. However, for the bread & breakfast package, the oceanfront/vw room is $350.
