Royal St. Kitts Hotel & Casino Review

For some 2 decades, this sprawling property was known as the Jack Tar Village. It's been massively overhauled and is experiencing a renaissance as the Royal St. Kitts. To get rid of the impersonal chain hotel stigma, the restored property focuses on Kittitian culture, including handcrafts, original paintings, and certain decorative elements. The well-furnished bedrooms are spread across 30 two-story structures, each with a view balcony overlooking the golf course, the sea, or the lagoon. Be warned: Tour groups sometimes fill up the place.

Nestled on the southeast peninsula of the island, the resort is near beaches of both the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. It's the most kid-friendly property in St. Kitts; children 12 and under stay free. The location is right next door to an 18-hole championship golf course.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; 6 bars; children's programs; golf course; fitness center; gym; 2 outdoor pools; smoke-free rooms; tennis court; rooms for those w/disabilities

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.
