Guest Feedback

“If I could give this house and entire experience a 10 star rating, I would. Our host was an absolutely wonderful help to me when planning our trip. She arranged for transportation from the airport as well as our rental van, and made sure we had forms filled out and processed well ahead of time to ensure a smooth experience. When our flight was delayed and we could not cross over to Nevis due to the late hour and rough seas, she even booked hotel rooms on Kitts for us so that we had a place to sleep the first night. She treated us like we were family. The manager was amazing too. Very responsive to all needs. The house itself is awesome! Plenty of room for all of us (7 adults) to have our own space when needed. The pool house was perfect for my husband and I to have our own private space with separate bedrooms for a great night’s sleep for both of us!! The kitchen is a cook’s kitchen. We ate in a lot and found everything we needed from sharp knives to skillets. My husband (a competitive Master’s swimmer) was able to do laps in the pool and keep to his work-out schedule. The landscaping is incredible. The view of Mt. Nevis amazing!! The rental is worth every penny. However the best thing about this property are the “uninvited guests”. Entire families of monkeys came to play in our trees every morning. They were so much fun to watch. I have some amazing pictures. If we make it back to Nevis for future vacations, I won’t consider staying anywhere else.”

“Nice View, Good Location, Lots of Different Places to Relax. We stayed here for 2 weeks & we really had a good time on the island and in the house! The house have a nice view, good location (close to town, beaches, grocery stores, restaurants etc), it feels very private and there is a big garden to play in. What we really liked are the different places you can relax at – by the pool, balcony, pergola, on the grass or under the umbrella! The inside of the house have good space for cooking, a nice living room & fresh bedrooms with AC and wardrobes in every room. A big plus that there is access to a washing machine and a dryer.”

“The Captain’s House is spacious, beautiful, well-stocked with a lovely pool (great for swimming laps) and glorious 360 view that includes a good bit of ocean. There is always a lovely breeze and the grounds are beautifully landscaped. This home is perfect for family groups as there is plenty of space to spread out. It was also great for just my husband and me. Very quiet and private yet close to the best restaurants, grocery store, and beaches. The house manager was readily available and so helpful. Thank you so much. We had a wonderful time.”
