The Eastern Caribbean island of St. Kitts is the newest exotic destination for Six Senses Hotels. The resort is set on the site of a former sugar cane plantation with gentle hills rolling down to a long stretch of sandy beach fronting the Caribbean Sea.

All of the projected 70 pool villas and The Retreat enjoy sea views and an unspoiled environment that gives the glorious feeling of being isolated from civilization; a place where guests can reconnect with themselves, their families and loved ones and nature.

 

 

Guests arrive at the resort through an old sugar cane plantation, passing the organic garden to the reception area. In true Six Senses style, every aspect of the 70 villas all with private plunge pools are true to the Six Senses commitment to the environment, using sustainable and repurposed materials juxtaposed with contemporary comforts. 

At the food and beverage plaza guests have a choice of dining alternatives, with emphasis on the freshest seafood from the Caribbean and ingredients harvested on-demand from the resort’s organic fruit, vegetable and spice gardens and from local producers.

 

 

True to the Caribbean’s tall tales of pirating, the Rum Shack will offer a treasure of rum-based refreshments that would delight any seafarer. And at the main pool, guests have the choice to swim up to the bar or lounge plantation-style with long thirst-quenching potions. Younger guests can choose fun activities at Grow With Six Senses (teen center and kid’s club), complete with playground and supervision.

Overlooking the resort’s nature reserve, Six Senses Spa St. Kitts will feature a menu of Six Senses specialty treatments as well as Caribbean healing traditions and rejuvenation journeys, Six Senses Integrative Wellness, detox, yoga and workshops. An Alchemy Bar will be a fascinating extension to spa personalization, first developed at Six Senses Spa Douro Valley in Portugal. 

 

 

Located on the western side of the island, the site for Six Senses St. Kitts is approximately a 30-minute drive along the scenic coast road from the capital Basseterre and the International Airport (SKB). The airport is served by direct flights from the United States, Canada and United Kingdom, with connecting and charter flights from Europe and regional services from several Caribbean nations.
