Review
The quirkiest property on Nevis must be The Hermitage, a Swiss Family Robinson-style inn, which boasts one of the oldest buildings in the Caribbean made from local lignum vitae–a wood so strong it’s used for ball bearings. Run for twenty years by the welcoming Lupinacci family, this meandering hillside property consists of several small cottages furnished with antiques–and locally crafted four-poster canopy beds–that are the ideal place to come and feel at home. Most have no televisions; a few have DVD players for watching movies and all have complimentary Wi-Fi. The beach is a short drive away, but the Hermitage has a good-size swimming pool. With its twinkling lights, dinner on the veranda is lovely; and if you like pork, there’s a weekly pig roast.
Who Should Stay
The Hermitage is a good fit for travelers who crave unfussiness, don’t mind a non-beachfront location and aren’t looking for high-concept design or the amenities of a large resort–all for very good value.
