Montpelier Plantation

B Corp
Contact us

The wedding venue of Lord Horatio Nelson to Fanny Nisbet in 1787, this former sugar plantation is rather like being a guest in an English country house with its old-world charm. This Relais & Chateaux boutique hotel is stylish, spacious and elegantly furnished.

The 19 contemporary rooms have stunning views to the hills or the ocean from a private veranda and within its 60 acres are beautiful gardens, a swimming pool, tennis court, spa, and Restaurant 750 where you may dine on the terrace under the stars.

The 300-year-old sugar mill has been converted to a unique restaurant, Mill Privee, and is the only one of its kind in the world. It serves delicious, fresh food to delight the taste buds and has a selection of fine wines to compliment your meal.

A complimentary shuttle offers access to the hotel’s private beach just six miles away which offers hammocks, beach cabanas and a bar and the odd beach BBQ.

Why we like Montpelier Plantation

The house is just beautiful and in a delightful setting. Gather in the lounge for evening aperitifs to meet with fellow guests. Be sure to join a rum tasting evening too, there is an extensive collection of rums here.

Where to stay

Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.

Belle Mont Farm £££££

  • Saint Kitts and Nevis
  • Boutique

Belle Mont Farm is set between the lush, green Mount Liamuiga and the Caribbean Sea. The 400-acre property offers one, three and four-bedroom guesthouses, villas and a farmhouse which have been designed to include stunning undisturbed sea-views from its hillside location. Guest rooms have almost wrap around verandas from where you can admire the impressive views from the freestanding bath or outdoor shower and most have a private pool.

Park Hyatt – St Kitts £££££

  • Saint Kitts and Nevis
  • Beach and Island Escapes

The high-end Park Hyatt, built in 2017, offers everything you could wish for in a great beach holiday. On the tip of the St Kitts peninsula at Banana Bay, all 78 rooms and 48 suites have stunning views of the sea and nearby Nevis, which is just a few minutes speedboat ride away. The hotel’s beachfront pays homage to the nearby Brimstone Hill Fortress with its colonnades around the pool cabanas.

Nisbet Plantation Beach Club £££££

  • Saint Kitts and Nevis
  • Boutique

On the island of Nevis, each of the hotel’s 38 luxurious yellow cottages sits in almost a quarter of an acre to ensure your privacy. Once the home of Fanny Nisbett (who wed Lord Horatio Nelson), this is the Caribbean’s only plantation house to be located on the beach and features in Conde Nast Traveller as one of the world’s best resorts. Lush green lawns sweep down between the avenue of trees to the Caribbean Sea and a soft, sandy beach.
