The combination of natural serenity and expert pampering ensures total relaxation and rejuvenation.

Romantic dining experiences

Dining in St. Kitts is a sensory delight, especially for lovers of seafood, like its fresh lobster, which is available year-round. Savour a beachfront dinner at the elegant Carambola Beach Club, alfresco dining at The View at Palms Court looking down at the lit coast or discover local dishes while dining on Sugar Mill’s laidback rooftop.
