Frommer's Review

Originally established in 1989, this family-owned and -run resort -- built on the site of a lime plantation -- is on the slopes of Mount Nevis, a 5-minute drive southwest of the Vance Amory International Airport. Small scale with touches of genuine charm, it's an inn rather than a full-blown resort, but with absolutely none of the 18th-century references that so richly permeate such competitors as the Hermitage Plantation or the Nisbet Plantation. It's known for the quality of its accommodations, for its panoramic views, and for serving some of the best food on Nevis. Near the historic fishing village of Newcastle, it offers standard rooms, junior suites, and most plush of all, a series of "supervisor suites," the latter with fully equipped kitchens and enough space for at least four guests, making it an ideal family choice. The rooms have such amenities as ceiling fans, and are furnished in a tropical motif, with wicker and colorful island prints. The Mount Nevis Beach Club offers a site directly astride the waters of Newcastle Bay and features a beach pavilion, bar, and restaurant. A shuttle bus interconnects the hotel with its beach facilities.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; outdoor pool; exercise room; beach shuttle; business services; room service; massage; babysitting; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
