- LoriGreenwood, IN4 contributionsWanted to do something besides the beach. This was worth our time. Great history and amazing views. Would definitely recommend this.Written 10 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MrsStokes2016Lymington, UK12 contributionsWe went on a fantastic mornings drive with Greg and his team. So informative and we never felt rushed.
We cannot recommend this trip enough.Written 13 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Pam MSaint Louis, MO17 contributionsSt Kitts cruise port seems to have the most confusion of any when just trying to catch a cab to the beach as they're constantly looking to get groups of 10-12 persons to load onto their transports. Didn't really see ordinary taxis but maybe they're there somewhere. Took about 30-min to get going. But once going it was great.
Socrates was our driver of what turned out to be an open air vehicle which was ideal for the 25-min drive to Cockleshell Beach (Only $5/person each way!). Just a picturesque island that u can't grasp enough if you're in a closed vehicle. Socrates had great commentary along the way. We were dropped off at a random location centered amongst a long row of beach bar establishments. The nearest one to our drop-off of course acted like we should immediately settle in at that location but we were not deterred as we were looking for the Reggae Bar Beach (Last Bar left from drop-off point), a recommendation from a fellow cruiser we had met. That's where we ended up & it was a pretty good choice.
Although the far end of the beach (to the right of the drop-off point) was slightly more modern looking w/ better views, Reggae was packed and had a great kitchen w/ best prices on food & drink when compared to their beach bar neighbors. Whole lobster actually affordable & tasted great! Hint: Order lunch before the big crowd does.
For a somewhat ordinary beach w/ no waves everybody seemed to be having a great time there. Water sports were busy, service was outstanding & restroom easily accessible. 2-Chairs w/Umbrella were $30. Chairs without Umbrella available. Socrates was ready for pick-up when & where he said he would be and we made the picturesque ride back to the ship in time with no issues.Written 17 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

That's what makes this place so very special for me.
The staff are very professional, not intrusive, but naturally warm-hearted and friendly. I always felt very comfortable.
The Prices are fair and very reasonable for such a sophisticated place and allow space for every budget.
The pool has salt water, which I also really liked.
The garden in particular is lovingly tended by the owner Claudia and her team. And one can feel the respect and care for the plants and trees. I have not found a more beautiful place on St. Kitts, where so much attention is paid to each detail to make you feel at home.Written 4 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Ignore the pay desk, walk to the beach, turn left and keep on walking.
There are a couple of beach shacks. We stopped approx mid-way along the beach. We paid $10 for beach chairs and used the overhead palm fronds for shade at the Discovery Beach Bar. Enjoyed our rum punch but didn’t order food. Beach and sea without the crowds
I wished I'd taken my underwater camera when I snorkled, within a few feet I discovered a reef which ran along towards the left end of the beach towards the darker sand. Within a few minutes I found a large conch sea shell, numerous fish, especially a large puffer, small and very large starfish, best of all an Eagle Ray swam in front of me slow enough to admire at leisure. Later walked back for taxi pick-upWritten 12 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It's a short walk over to the rum distillery. We spent 2 hours total.Written 24 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michael H1 contributionWe did a rainforest hike with O’Neil and it was exceptional! He was a wealth of knowledge, explaining the history and pointing out all plant and animal life along the trails. My kids loved keeping pace with him, asking him questions along our experience. Was a great day!Written 23 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- hbhakhRoanoke, VA2,268 contributionsWe did the culinary demo/rum tasting from our cruise ship. This is the second time that we've done a similar tour. The bus picked us up promptly and was clean and had good AC. The drive to the Great House is not very long.
When we arrived, we were escorted to the demo area, which had ample seating and good views of the chef. It's not air conditioned but there were several fans and a breeze. The chef did an excellent job a preparing and explaining the food. There was also a guide that gave us an overview of the history of the estate.
After eating, we had quite a bit of free time (maybe too much) before the rum tasting, which was also well done. Shortly thereafter, our transportation arrived to take us back to the ship.

It's a beautiful drive to get there and views are amazing with the Atlantic on one side, the Pacific on the other. Lots of millionaire homes in the area. There were stalls that sold trinkets at the top along with a couple of men taking pictures of you and their monkeys.Written 7 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Randy WSanborn, NY371 contributionsPhillip greeted us and entertained us from the minute the tour started until sadly we had to leave after our hour tour. We have done gardens on other islands but loved how this had sturdy walking paths and handrails were needed. A warning to those with bad knees there are a number of up and down stairs but as a knee replacement recipient I was able to maneuver without a problem. The elderly struggled a bit but everyone enjoyed it.
Beautiful flowers, trees garden statues. This home has been in Phillip’s wife’s family for 7 generations. The home has survived many hurricanes. The floors are all original hardwood in excellent condition. A room filled with collectibles from around the world were also on view. They also rescue animals that were injured and have monkeys, turtles, love birds and parrots.
We were invited down to Phillip’s “man cave” for a rum punch, beer, soda or water and on the way out stopped in to meet his daughter in her cute little souvenir shop.Written 11 April 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

If you are brave you can climb down the rocks. Watch the tide. It is easy to be mesmerized by your surrounding and find it rising before you make your way back. Grassy area had stalls. Vendors were not overly aggressive and there are great find like the wood carver who sold his amazing creations for reasonable prices.Written 2 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MengerrieCharlotte, NC441 contributionsIf you visit St. Kitts rent a car for a day or two. Drive to the southern tip of St Kitts via the government built good road. At the southern tip where the Ferry to Nevis docks there is a beautiful beach at Major's Bay. You can park anyplace and enjoy the pristine waters. There is an old sunken barge in the bay and that's it. If you find 4 or5 people on the 1/2 mile long beach that will be a crowded day. Beautiful views of Nevis and total relaxation away from the tourist crowdsWritten 8 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
