St. Kitts

Intoxicating natural beauty, sunny skies, warm waters, and white sandy beaches combine to make St. Kitts one of the most seductive spots in the Caribbean. Christopher Columbus first spotted St. Kitts in 1493, when it was populated with native tribes, but the Europeans did not colonize until the British arrived in 1623. Its strategic location and valuable sugar trade led to an advanced and luxurious development that was among the best in the Colonial Caribbean.

While development has been of the highest quality, it has fortunately remained in low quantity, so St. Kitts remains un-crowded and unspoiled, famous around the world for excellent preservation of the ecosystems. Nature lovers will want to take advantage of the various tours through lava formations, tropical forest areas, and seaside lagoons. Boating tours and scuba diving expeditions are also favorite activities. Plantation homes have been transformed into grand, intimate inns. Quaint shopping areas and beautiful Colonial architecture draw visitors to the tiny towns. If a quiet vacation in a luxurious and alluring corner of paradise is what you seek, you'll find it on St. Kitts.

Golden Lemon Inn & Villas

Dieppe Bay, St. Kitts

Golden Lemon is one of the most romantic resort-hotels on St. Kitts, perhaps in the entire Caribbean. Luxurious, leisurely and laid back, you can lose yourself in the comforts of the 17th century Great House bedrooms or in one of our spacious ocean and beach side Villas, each with its own large private plunge pool set in a lush garden. Every accommodation is individually decorated in tropical colors with antique poster beds, mahogany armoires and chests, color-co-ordinated linens, fresh flowers and all modern amenities.

Dine with us for a true West Indian-style gourmet experience. Meet new friends at our pre-dinner get together, and share ideas and good conversation. Or hide out, doing 'nothing' together and be pampered as only The Golden Lemon's staff knows how to do it.

Every one of our 26 rooms and suites is exquisitely and uniquely decorated with antique and modem furnishings that are combined for 2lst century comfort. No two rooms are decorated alike, and all are striking in their individual decor.
In the Great House your room may have mahogany poster beds so high you need steps to get into them, or antique metal beds replete with colorful hangings. There is a storybook quality about these spacious, high-ceilinged rooms. You'll find richly carved armoires and chests, bathroom sinks set into mahogany sideboards, and many other unusual touches.

The villas lend a modern touch particularly with your own secluded plunge swimming pool, soaring twenty-five foot ceilings with bull's eye windows, queen size four posters, color-co-ordinated linen, large West Indian baths with a surprise: a mirror at one end. Very sexy. ? ?

...and Amenities
Fresh flowers daily, gorgeous views to other islands, spectacular sunrises and sunsets, telephones with Internet access and a full American breakfast is included daily, served in your room, at the Great House restaurant or, if you like, in bed.
However, there are a few amenities missing:

TV, wall-to-wall carpeting, newspapers, and children under eighteen.
