Wedded Bliss In St Kitts
With a slight breeze coming off the Atlantic to ruffle the bride’s veil, can you imagine a more perfect place to marry than on the island paradise of St Kitts?
If you’ve long dreamed of saying your ‘I Do’s’ on a white sandy beach, with the waves lapping on the shore, or on a perfectly manicured lawn against a backdrop of dramatic volcanic ranges, then planning your nuptials in St Kitts is the ultimate choice. With no residency required and a minimum of red tape, coupled with outstanding natural beauty and some gorgeous hotels in which to hold your reception, getting married in St Kitts will make for some incredible photos and awe-inspired guests, with the added advantage that your wedding guests can turn their stay into a vacation in the Caribbean too.
Beautiful Locations For Big Days
Starting at the St Kitts Marriott Resort & Royal Beach Casino, the hotel has wedding planners on hand to help put together your special day, with a choice of indoor and outdoor venues. Customised menus will be put together with hotel chefs, and the planners will source local florists and photographers – perfect for couples who don’t live in or near St Kitts for a pre-wedding visit. For a traditional backdrop for your vows, the Rawlins Plantation Inn will also meticulously plan your big day, with their 17th-Century windmill converted into a stunning honeymoon suite for the newlyweds. And boasting stunning grounds of palm trees and bright flora and fauna, your photos will certainly be something to treasure. As far as unique wedding spots go, St Kitts and Nevis is packed with them. Check out Romney Manor, a tropical plantation garden west of Basseterre, the grounds of which are the perfect foil for a wedding. Choose to marry under the spreading branches of the 350-year-old Saman Tree in the centre of the lower gardens or higher up by the fountain and the ruins of a sugar estate tower. Add a sense of occasion to proceedings with a wedding at Brimstone Hill, ideal for a military wedding as it’s actually a fortress. With gorgeous views over the Caribbean Sea and cannons dotted around the outskirts, you can also gaze down over a backdrop of the National Park’s emerald green forests.
“You’ll also find wedding packages on offer at Ottley’s Plantation Inn, Bird Rock Beach Hotel, Ocean Terrace Inn and the Golden Lemon Inn and Villas, with organising packages starting from around $500.”

Family Holiday in St Kitts
Although the Caribbean can mainly be seen as the go-to destination for honeymooners and romantic couples, it’s also a family friendly island too
If you want to turn your Caribbean jaunt to St Kitts and Nevis into a family affair, you’ll find your brood welcomed with open arms on this family friendly island. With all inclusive deals available at some resorts, as well as kids clubs on offer, what’ll really keep the whole family occupied is the huge variety of things to do. With horse riding and quad biking for the adventurous, miles of beaches for the relaxation-prone and plenty of family friendly dining options on offer, St Kitts and Nevis is a great place for the family to reconnect and recharge.
Best For The Brood
Probably the best family friendly accommodation is to be found at the St Kitts Marriott Resort & Royal Beach Casino. Due to its sheer size, it’s easily the biggest hotel on the island, and there’s plenty to do for families with young children or teens. Boasting an enormous pool and an onsite championship golf course in the form of the Royal St Kitts Golf Club, the spa and the casino should take care of most families’ downtime. You’ll also find a babysitting service and eight restaurants to choose from, including the Royal Grille Steakhouse, Blu Seafood Restaurant and, for the grown-ups, the Blue Martini Piano Bar. If you’re looking for a more personal service, try the Island Paradise Beach Village that’s set in five acres of tropical gardens and on the beach. With an outdoor BBQ are, you can gather the family to cook up the fruits of your deep sea fishing excursion, and nearby activities include horse riding and tennis, as well as shopping within walking distance. For an adventure-packed day out, hire quad bikes and head out on your own safari tour given by a local guide. Taking you off-road along sugar train tractor paths and hillside trails, you’ll drive through rainforests and enjoy views of surrounding villages on this three-hour tour, which culminates in a picnic for all. Visit www.StKitts.co.uk for more. And if staying in a resort with a children’s programme is important on your family holiday, it’s good to know that there are some great ones available, but only at a certain number of resorts. You’ll find scheduled entertainment programmes at the St Kitts Marriott Resort & Royal Beach Casino, the Four Seasons Nevis, Nisbet Plantation Beach Club and the Ocean Terrace Inn.
“To enjoy some fantastic music entertainment, plan your vacation around the annual St Kitts Music Festival in June, which celebrates its 15th year in 2011 and in the past has seen the likes of Third World, C-Money and Babyface turn up ready to rock.”

Culinary St Kitts
Finding a great destination for lunch or dinner is pretty easy on an island awash with incredible dining options
Unsurprisingly for its location, Caribbean cuisine and seafood are the orders of the day on St Kitts and Nevis, when it comes to eating out. And why hanker for the same old international food you can get anywhere? However, to claim that Caribbean cuisine is an alternative to international fare would be a mistake, created as it was from a fusion of African, Amerindian, British, Spanish, French, Dutch, Indian and Chinese influences – thanks to its chequered past of settlers, seamen and slaves of all nationalities. With goat stew one of the signature dishes of St Kitts and Nevis, you may have to check your culinary timidity at the restaurant door along with your coat, and really get stuck in to the plethora of flavours on offer. And if you’re looking for some suitable dining options, we’ve got some great ideas.
Dish It Up In St Kitts
The Circus Grill serves up dishes with an international and Caribbean influence, and you should opt to dine outside on the verandah. Expect to find the likes of Caribbean Spiny lobster and seafood kebabs on the menu, alongside classics such as chicken satay and a good ol’ US steak. Follow the crowds to Ballahoo restaurant in Basseterre, a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. Here you’ll find incredible spicy curries and plenty of chilli-infused dishes, including delicious chilli prawns, to satisfy the hungry heat-seekers. Making the most of the lingering French influences on the island, try La Belle Vie situated near the St Kitts Marriott Resort, Timothy Beach and Royal St Kitts Hotel, which offers up fine French cuisine. Find duck, lamb and fresh garden salads on the menu, alongside roasted salmon and tuna fresh out of the water. Over at Marshalls, there’s seafood aplenty, with dishes given their own individual Caribbean kick. The seafood chowder is recommended, with spicy cuts of conch, lobster, shrimp and fish, while the shrimp Veracruz offers up grilled-to-perfection prawns doused in herb butter.
“Want to sample the famous goat curry? Book in for a four-course meal at Rawlin’s Plantation Inn to try the curry, alongside jerk chicken, stewed saltfish and the classic dish of peas and rice.”

Spotlight On Nevis next to St Kitts
Divide your time between St Kitts and Nevis, or make Nevis the focal point of your vacation – either way, don’t neglect to make time for this stunning island
Natural delights seem to come at you from every inch of Nevis’s 36 square miles, which is separated from St Kitts by a mere two mile strip known as ‘The Narrows’. With secluded sandy beaches – including some of the black sand variety – abundant natural beauty, fresh water and volcanic hot springs, Nevis is a real treat for visitors escaping the rat race. Named Oualie meaning ‘Land of Beautiful Waters’ by the Caribs and Dulcina (Sweet Island) by its early British settlers, Nevis has been capturing the imagination for years, so it’s definitely time for you to enjoy a slice of this island life.
Romantic Ruins and Beautiful Beaches
Thanks to its diverse and often tumultuous past, there are plenty of fascinating archaeological ruins on Nevis to peruse at your leisure. A few for your list are the Hamilton Estate, from where you can look out across the capital Charlestown and also St Kitts. Found at the upper part of Government Road, the ruins of the stone windmill tower and steam engine finally closed down in 1950, before nature then took a hold. Likewise the New River Estate, which will whisk the awed visitor back to the island’s sugary past with its chimneys and ruined great house. Finally, be sure to pay a visit to the Eden Brown Estate Great House, which dates back to the late 1700s, and from where you can see all the way to Antigua and Montserrat. Once you’ve packed in enough ruins, it’s time to check out the beaches, with Pinney’s beach having long been a draw for celebrities and royalty throughout the years. Nisbet is another of the island’s most famous beaches and is home to the Nisbet Plantation Beach Club, a great place to stop for a cocktail. Find the softest sand at Cades Bay Beach, with powdery softness underfoot, although the waves can be stringer here than at other beaches, and the mile-long Lover’s Beach is a romantic must that’s perfect for a spot of sunbathing.
“Take time out too to really explore the capital Charlestown, which boasts a colourful and varied history. A hive of activity during market days on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, there’s some amazing architecture along its buzzing streets.”
