Heart of the West Indies: Four Seasons’ Live Like a Local Experience

“Escape to paradise and immerse yourself in the local way of life,”  announces the Four Season’s Nevis recently launched “Live Like a Local” experience.  Don’t mind if I do!

I’ve always been drawn to the Four Seasons Nevis property. It feels luxurious and exclusive at the same time other worldly and steeped in history, maybe because it is. As the first Four Seasons property in the Caribbean, the  resort was at beginning of the brand that has become synonymous with luxury travel. Not only do you have a property that has grown with the brand but the West Indies’ Nevis island is the birthplace of one of America’s most famous individuals, Alexander Hamilton. Perhaps the history is what drew Bill and Melinda Gates Investments (BMGI) to purchase the property in 2016. The full property underwent extensive renovations a few years ago with the award winning design firm TAL Studio to maintain the colonial character with an infusion of airiness and fresh nautical touches. “The design is the realization of a new vision for the Resort, speaking to the modern Four Seasons traveller while painstakingly preserving the humble charm of this small island.” states Todd Avery Lenahan, the Founder of TAL Studio.

It feels as though, at last, you can truly get away from it all.

The exclusive Live Like A Local package at Four Seasons Resort Nevis  allows guests to indulge in a complete feeling of being a part of the Nevis island culture, while enjoying the luxuries of a Four Seasons stay. Completely inclusive of a range of experiences, even the most discerning of traveler will be want for nothing. The included offerings vary from culinary adventure to relaxation like no other. Experience a taste of the Caribbean with a private dining experience, relaxation in a spacious beach cabana, staying active on the tennis and pickleball courts, and finding tranquillity at the Spa with a meditation session before an intimate evening under the stars.

“Our Private Retreat villas and residences are some of the most unique within the Caribbean as they cater to groups of all sizes, ensuring an unforgettable experience for everyone,” says Billy Cueto, General Manager. “They were designed to feel like home, yet with an added touch of luxury. Guests who book this package won’t have to worry about missing out on the best of Nevis as all activities and experiences are included, so come ready to relax, and let Four Seasons take care of the rest.”

Guests can enjoy friendly competition with a group pickleball tournament, a personalised movie night under the stars, and one private fitness session at any of the residences with Wellness Manager Sidra Samuel. From yoga and meditation to Pilates, guests will find mindfulness and balance by centering their breath and body, aligning their physical and mental well-being for a feeling of rejuvenation.

For a more curated dining experience, guests will experience a casual barbecue by the pool prepared by one of the Resort’s chefs, who will personally prepare grilled fresh fish and other local favourites. Guests staying in a private residence will also have a full-service kitchen and appliances, providing the opportunity to enjoy effortless meals at any time of day.

Just steps away from the clear turquoise waters of Pinney’s Beach sit the Resort’s luxury beach cabanas, offering sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea and sister island St. Kitts. Guests can lounge in any of the six beach chairs and enjoy a cocktail or lunch delivered by attentive beach attendants. The beach huts also have WiFi connectivity, a swaying hammock, a mini-fridge of snacks and beverages and assorted beach toys for little ones.

In addition to all the amenities that a Private Retreats experience provides, the Resort’s dedicated team will ensure every moment of the guest’s stay is tailored to their individual needs, offering personalised service, plenty of space to work and play, all the amenities of home and everything that anyone could need while away.

The Resort boasts six residence neighbourhoods across the 350-acre (140 hectare) property, with some just a few minutes’ walk from the beach or a 10-minute golf cart ride to the Resort’s main grounds. Each home is seamlessly designed with unique touches depicting Caribbean décor and modern elements. Keeping with the ease of Caribbean living, these homes provide a contemporary indoor-outdoor feel with expansive patio spaces that lead to private pools perfect for a refreshing dip.
