Hotel Spotlight: Four Seasons Nevis

The Four Seasons Nevis is the perfect beachfront oasis for a luxury getaway. In June, the Four Seasons Nevis invited Ourisman Travel, a top 30 Preferred Partner agency to experience this peaceful hideaway firsthand. 

Bookings and Flights

If you’re arriving by an international commercial flight, you will likely land at Robert L Bradshaw (SKB) in neighboring St Kitts. Outside the airport, you will be greeted by Four Seasons staff members and escorted to a nearby marina to board a ferry boat. Your transfer can be private or shared with other Four Seasons guests. From there, it’s an 18-20 minute ferry ride to the island. Enjoy refreshments of choice as you make the short journey to the gorgeous Four Seasons Nevis.

Alternatively, you can arrive directly to Nevis on a smaller regional aircraft or private jet by flying into Vance Amory International Airport (NEV), and transferring to the resort by vehicle.

If you need our assistance with choosing the best option for you, we can assist with your transportation logistics through our Hotel Plus concierge assistance service.

Check-in

Once you arrive at Four Seasons Nevis, you will feel like you are stepping back in time, like how the Caribbean used to be decades ago as you take in the lush landscape with the majestic Nevis Peak towering behind the resort. You won’t find any new high-rise hotels on this island as no dwelling can be taller than a coconut tree. The island also does not host large cruise ships that you may see docked at neighboring St. Kitts.

You are met on arrival by your personal host— we loved how warm and welcoming the personal hosts were— and escorted to your accommodation. 

To get the most out of the island, we recommend a 5-6 night stay. This will be enough to enjoy the dormant volcano views, great food, a dreamy town, and a five-star guest experience at the Four Seasons resort. 

The nightly rate will depend on when you book (the sooner, the better). The starting rates also depend on your dates and category. For instance, an entry-level Nevis Peak room will cost you between $555—$1770 per night depending on the season. 

The rooms are set up with personalized handwritten notes from the Four Seasons team and from your trusty Preferred Partner travel advisor! You will love the warm and friendly staff, most of whom have worked in the resort for years. In fact, Four Seasons is the second largest employer on the island. 

Rooms

Four Seasons has both guest rooms and suites that are housed in gingerbread-trimmed buildings, no more than two stories high. The rooms are large and recently renovated in 2019. They feature a contemporary design with a bright tropical theme enhanced by floral fabrics in soft shades of beige, yellow and pink. 

Each room category offers amazing views. You can enjoy endless sunrises over the cloud-capped Nevis Peak right from your patio or balcony in the entry-level Nevis Peak View Rooms, as well as views of the Robert Trent Jones II Golf Course. For families with young children, the Ocean Side Rooms with a private patio and access to a fenced-in grass area are a great choice. Traveling with kids has never been more convenient when you can take advantage of the complimentary self-service laundry room available in each building.

For large families or groups, the resort has over 50 residences, villas and estate homes. The Sunset Hill Villas are ideally situated higher on Nevis Peak, offering breathtaking views of the Caribbean sea and the island of St Kitts. For guests who prefer to be close to the beach and enjoy modern decor, Pinney’s Beach Villas will be the perfect fit.

Food and Drink

The resort features seven gourmet restaurants and bars you can pick from. Four Season’s cuisine is a combination of localized dining experiences and modern and international cooking techniques. EsQuilina is where your complimentary Preferred Partner breakfast is served (if you forgo room service breakfast). By night, it is a great place to go on a culinary journey with a chef’s table and drink pairings. 

For cigar and rum lovers, The Crowned Monkey Rum Bar is great for tastings and enjoying a nice cigar. Repeat guests can even purchase lockers that store their collection of cigars and rums at the bar when they return to the property. For a laid-back dining experience, stop by Kastaway’s Beach Bar for lunch. It is the perfect spot to enjoy a rum punch or Carib (popular Caribbean beer) with your toes in the sand.

The resort offers complimentary meals for children five years old and under at all restaurants. 

Pro tip: We recommend dinner reservations in advance.

Facilities

With almost 3 miles of pristine beachfront, there is no shortage of beach chairs to take in the views of the Caribbean sea, or you may choose to relax at one of the resorts three pools. The new signature Limin pool is a sight to behold. Surrounded by lush landscaping and four private cabanas, this is most popular pool on the property. The Calypso Pool, located right next to the Kid’s Club, is ideal for children and families, complete with its own splash pad!

Unwind and lounge in tropical treatments and scents at the peaceful Spa at Four Seasons Resort Nevis. Unwind with a massage treatment or visit the salon for a manicure.

Play on your choice of three different court surfaces or four new pickleball courts, managed by world-renowned Troon Peter Burwash International at the resort’s top-rated tennis centre. The 18-Hole Robert Trent Jones II signature golf course is woven into the island’s landscape, winding over 6,766 yards from the slopes of Nevis Peak down to the edge of the Caribbean Sea. This par 71 course offers amazing views from every green and fairway. An enhancement of the golf course and renovation of the tennis courts was completed in November 2022. This makes Four Seasons Nevis one of the better properties in the Caribbean for tennis, pickle ball and golf. You can even book private lessons with a pro.

Stay active with the workout equipment provided at the fully air-conditioned Sports Pavilion or book a private or group fitness class during your stay.

Activities

There is no shortage of activities while in Nevis. Guests of the Four Seasons Nevis can enjoy:

  • Complimentary non-motorized watersports, including kayaking, snorkeling and standup paddleboard, just to name a few.
  • A Catamaran cruise from the resort. These cruises provide the unique opportunity to explore the stretch of the Caribbean Sea between the two neighbouring islands of St. Kitts and Nevis.
  • Take an island tour with a local guide or historians. Nevis is home to many firsts, including the first hotel in the Caribbean, the Bath Hotel, and the first integrated Church, the Cottle Church. The island was also home to U.S. Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, who was born in Charlestown in 1755. Hamilton fans will enjoy a visit to the Alexander Hamilton museum.
  • Visit the Botanical Gardens created by Joseph and Martha Murphy.
  • Send kids to the hotel’s exclusive Kids For All Seasons program for ages 3-9 years old.
  • Families will enjoy minigolf or eco-bio golf.
  • Watch and interact with sea turtles (the best time for this is during the nesting season, between June and October) If you’re lucky, you will see sea turtles while snorkeling right off the resort’s beach.
  • Private beach and pool cabanas are available to rent daily and come fully equipped.
  • Nevis is home to Green Vervet monkeys. Animal lovers can participate in the resort’s complimentary monkey-spotting tours.

Four Season has partnered with the Sea Turtle Conservancy to educate and create awareness about sea turtles in Nevis. They have also collaborated on a program to help researchers study the immigration patterns of endangered species that have made a home on Nevis island. There are three sea turtle species in Nevis: hawksbill, the leatherback, and the green turtle.

One key highlight of our visit to Four Seasons was the release of Brownie, an adult hawksbill turtle named after our affiliate agency, Brownell Travel. Brownie was released on June 24, 2022, with a satellite transmitter. She was found nesting on Lover’s Beach Nevis!

Brownie will participate in the 2022 ‘Tour de Turtles’, and you can track her on the Sea  Turtles Conservancy Website.
