My Plans to Visit The Caribbean Island of Nevis

21/05/14 ᛫ Add a Comment

My 2014 travel schedule is shaping up nicely. With Skiing in Tignes and Easter in Rome in the bag, I’m looking forward to Monaco Grand Prix this weekend, followed by Ibiza, LA and Istanbul. But yesterday a new destination landed as a potential in my 2014 travel schedule, which comes in the form of the Caribbean island of Nevis. Haven’t heard of it? Don’t worry, neither had I until a few weeks ago.

Nevis is a small Caribbean island next to the island of St Kitts. Unlike it’s overdeveloped and internationally known big brother Barbados, Nevis remains totally undiscovered to many, especially the Brits. This morning I had the pleasure of an early breakfast meeting at London hotspot Cecconi’s with the General Manager of The Four Seasons Nevis, Sven Wiedenhaupt. Sven painted the most amazing picture of both the Island and the resort, and quite possibly has the best job in the world? It’s safe to say I now have serious wanderlust.

I absolutely love learning about corners of the world that I never knew about, which is why I adored my press trip to the secret Indian Ocean island of La Reunion. Being the travel geek that I am, I couldn’t wait to ask all about the Island and the resort. A trip to Four Seasons Nevis would combine both of my passions, exploration and Luxury travel. Sven told me that Nevis is a Volcanic island, so has expansive green and lush landscapes that are perfect for hiking through. I’d definitely keep active and try my hand at a few volcano treks. It also has 4 waterfalls, how’s that for paradise?

The Four Season Resort is the ONLY fully functioning resort on the whole Island, and it was great to hear that it fully supports the Nevis economy by being the biggest employer on the Island. Within close proximity to the US, around 80% of the tourists are predominantly American, but it’s actually easily accessible from the UK too. An 8hr flight takes you to into Antigua then after a short 1hr stop over, you’re in St Kitts. You’re then whisked off to Nevis by boat, to land on the private shores of the Four Seasons Resort. Simples!

With not a high-rise block in sight and traditional Caribbean architecture throughout, The Four Seasons Nevis maintains an ambience of real Island culture. Combined with 4 gorgeous restaurants, an idyllic spa and a killer golf course, The Four Seasons Nevis sounds like a real hidden gem that I cannot wait to discover.

Have you visited the Island of Nevis or are thinking of going? Or perhaps you’ve never heard of it and now want to visit like me! If you’ve enjoyed this post, please leave a comment in the box below x

    Looks beautiful! I’m jealous of your travel schedule (do you get that a lot??) as I haven’t even planned my summer holidays yet! This is the first year I’m being restricted by the school holidays due to the BFs job, but our weekends are fast getting booked up. Maybe I’ll wait until October half term and go to a lovely, hot, far-away place like this 🙂

    […] After a week of partying in Ibiza, I cannot wait to unwind and get a taste of Island Life during one week at the Four Seasons, St Nevis. St Nevis is a stunning volcanic island which sits next to it’s big brother St Kitts. The explorer in me can’t wait to get my hiking boots on and discover the island’s volcanoes and waterfalls, as well as relaxing on the beach of course!

I had too many words about 2022 for a caption, so I’ve put them all into a blog post. 

My “2022 year in review” is live on The Travelista. It’s a longer, personal blog post about lessons, learnings, achievements and travels from year just gone, as well as my hopes and goals for 2023. I’ve put a link on stories for anyone interested. 😊

17 destinations across 9 countries. My son stepped foot in 3 new countries and I got to bring him on 6 trips with me, including his first cruise. Wow ♥️

I’m finding a new rhythm for travelling with (and sometimes without) a little one and can’t wait for what’s to come in 2023.

Whether you’re new here or you’ve followed my journey for years, thank you so much for being here, for every like, comment and share. It is this amazing, supportive and loyal community that has enabled me to quit my job this year and return to doing this full time again post Covid.

Merry Christmas from my family to yours ♥️.
Before I sign off for a little Christmas social me Before I sign off for a little Christmas social media break, here’s a festive photo dump of the past week + sharing my favourite poem🕯🎄🥂

Featuring 

➕ A lunch to @bettys with the girls. Making a new tradition. 
➕ A family visit to @castle_howard for their spectacular #IntotheWoods Christmas experience. Phenomenal. We go every year and it just gets better and better.
➕ Carols by candlelight at our local church - magic - but so many layers because the heating was broken!
➕ Dust if you Must by Rose Milligan. The perfect tonic in the (potentially stressful) build up to Christmas. 

We are hosting family this year and I’m excited! I’d love my house to look like a festive show home but it doesn’t, and that’s ok. (I have a 4 year old making mess twice as fast as I can tidy it). 

Fellow hosts, don’t be so busy ‘dusting’ that you miss all the little moments of magic! I’m reminding myself of this too. Swipe to read the poem and you’ll get it. ♥️

Wishing you a perfectly imperfect Christmas 🎄 

Love Jess x

We are all feeling the pinch this year with the rising cost of living, so I set myself a challenge to find gifts for under £30. By shopping at outlets like Junction 32, which has over 80 brands offering up to 60% off the retail price, your money truly does go so much further. ♥️

What gifts I bought;

✔️ Slippers from @radleylondon RRP £40 J32 Price £20
✔️Himalayam charcoal gift set from @thebodyshop RRP £36.00 J32 Price £29.50
✔️Wax cheese wheels from independent retailer @themousehouse_lincoln £3 for £16
✔️Children’s cutlery set from @procookuk RRP £10 J32 Price £7

As usual J32 had some brilliant items on offer and a huge amount of choice, even this far into December.

Have you got any last minute Christmas shopping to do? I think I am finally done! 🛍
