A Sugar Plantation Stay In Nevis
One of the TOP TEN STAYS IN NEVIS! Golden Rock Inn is a great place to rest and relax while on a well-needed Nevis Vacation. Historical, beautiful and affordable, this dreamy plantation Inn has it all.
So, what makes this place so special and one-of-a-kind? Besides the common feeling that it looks and feels much like a castle, the original buildings have been left virtually untouched, and they are beautifully preserved. It was actually built from lava stone between 1801 and 1815!
The GOLDEN ROCK INN is about 100 acres in size and was built in the 18th century. Yes, it was once a sugar plantation. This is what makes it so unique. Nevis Island once thrived from sugarcane and slavery. Nevis is rich in history, as you will find out, so discover its roots at the Museum of Nevis History.
It provides an amazing garden courtyard, bordered by luxuriant bougainvillea and orchids. This lies in the heart of Golden Rock. Enjoy an ice cold cocktail between 5:30pm and 6pm in the courtyard and soak up the rejuvinating sunset. This can help you work up an appetite before a plantation style evening meal is served in their fine dinner only restaurant that offers delicious West Indian Cuisine. So, where do visitors rest their sleepy heads afterward?
They have to offer cute, intimate cottages or the converted stone tower of the sugar estates mill the Nevis Hotels. There are seven pastel colored cottageson the slopes of Gingerland. All rooms have large porches with views of the Caribbean. A smaller stone cottage is available, and Honeymooners love the bi-level Sugar Mill Suite with a private combination bath. It is big enough for families of four or five. The Sugar Mill is known to be one of “the most enchanting accommodations in the Caribbean.” Glass shuttered windows provide plenty of Caribbean breezes and heart warming sunlight.
Here is a convenient map of the grounds:
If you are in need of a dreamy get-away, this is a great place to stay! There’s something for everyone in Nevis West Indies. Just here to help!
