Family Overview: Saint Kitts

Sister islands Saint Kitts and Nevis have traditionally appealed to different travelers. The largest property on Nevis is the 196-room Four Seasons, the nightlife is modest, and the island can only accept small ships such as those of Windjammer cruises. As a result, Nevis tends to aim at up-market travelers seeking a luxurious getaway with plenty of relaxing evenings. Saint Kitts, on the other hand, has the 477-room Saint Kitts Marriott Resort and Royal Beach Casino, more clubs than Nevis, and Port Zante, a cruise terminal equipped to handle mega-liners. While you won't see crowds on Nevis, Saint Kitts' capital, Basseterre, bustles with daytrippers on cruise days. Saint Kitts offers both black- and white-sand beaches, diving and snorkeling, a rainforest for hiking, and an historic fortress prime for exploration. Read More
