Luxury St. Kitts & Nevis Holidays

For a luxury holiday to a land that represents the Caribbean of old, discover a St. Kitts & Nevis holiday. It’s a pair of islands that have so far been left uncharted on the tourist map and, as a result, their lush interiors largely remain as nature intended.

The untouched natural surroundings on both islands are a haven for hikers, with trails veining the contoured emerald landscape. Valleys, ravines and rock formations make for captivating scenery on St. Kitts holidays, the green wilds speckled with colourful orchids and patrolled by white-tailed deer and mongooses. As an illustration of its remoteness, the roaming vervet monkeys brought over by the French in the 17th century outnumber locals by two-to-one and on Nevis it’s said there are more donkeys than people.

This lack of development in both St. Kitts and Nevis has meant a languid pace of life stills exists, former plantations and charming colonial towns left to be characterised by their relaxed locals. Soak up the mellow atmosphere with rum in hand and the sound of soca in the background and raise your glass to the Caribbean of yesteryear.

Travel Guide

St. Kitts & Nevis has a steady tropical climate throughout the year, with temperatures averaging between 26-30°C.

December to May are the driest months in which to visit, with temperatures not scorchingly hot and humidity at its lowest. Holiday during Christmas and New Year and you’ll be treated to the kaleidoscopic spectacle that is the country’s annual Carnival (also known as Sugar Mas), where dancers, colourfully costumed locals and parades fill the streets. If you want to maximise your chances of a rain-free holiday, then March, April and May are your best bets. Hotel prices start to drop, offering better value for money.

June to November is the official Caribbean hurricane season. However, the risk of tropical storms is low and the worst you’ll likely encounter is short, heavy showers. There’s still plenty of sunshine hours, so events like the St. Kitts Music Festival can be taken advantage of.

St Kitts & Nevis highlights

History & Culture

St Kitts’ UNESCO-listed Brimstone Hill Fortress is impressive even if military history isn’t usually your thing. Designed by British engineers and built largely by enslaved Africans over roughly a century, its enormous complex of citadels, bastions, barracks and ramparts is remarkably well preserved. Explore its volcanic-stone fortifications, nearly 800 feet above sea level, for panoramic views across rainforest, coastline and neighbouring Caribbean islands.

On Nevis, spend time wandering Charlestown, where pastel-coloured Georgian buildings, decorative gingerbread houses and palm-shaded gardens line the quiet streets. Some buildings date back to the 18th century, giving the small capital a distinctive historic character. Visit the Museum of Nevis History and explore the island’s connections to Alexander Hamilton, the American founding father whose life inspired the musical Hamilton.
