Luxury Hotels In St. Kitts

Read The Coast Through Its Landscapes

Banana Bay supplies one coastal reference for a St. Kitts stay. Park Hyatt St. Kitts has a setting associated with the water and the South East Peninsula. The immediate shoreline can be part of the reason to choose accommodation here, rather than simply the background to a room.

Black Rocks offers a different coastal subject. These volcanic formations on the Atlantic side reveal the island through rock and lava, rather than the sandy foreground of a beach retreat. A traveller interested in the island's formation has a concrete reason to look at this stretch of coast without treating every waterfront stop as another beach day.

Choose Between Cultivated Grounds And Volcanic Terrain

At Romney Manor, botanical gardens surround a historic sugar-plantation setting. The cultivated grounds give a visit a different emphasis from the island's volcanic interior: plants, the arrangement of the estate and the relationship between a house setting and its landscape.

Mount Liamuiga brings rainforest terrain and the crater rim of a dormant volcano into the picture. Choose the subject according to your interest in the interior, rather than assuming that an attraction described as scenic involves the same kind of day as visiting gardens. These are distinct landscapes to consider when shaping the island portion of a journey.

Keep The Town As Its Own Subject

Basseterre adds an urban perspective to those coastal and inland settings. Give the town a defined place in the visit if its streets and historical character interest you. Comparing town, cultivated grounds and volcanic landscape helps reveal which subjects you want beyond the immediate hotel surroundings.
