"Set on a former sugar plantation beside miles-long Pinney’s Beach, this beachfront Four Seasons established Nevis as a luxury destination with plantation-style cottages and refined-yet-relaxed design. The 189 rooms and suites (plus villas with private pools and butler service) offer views of Nevis Peak or the sea; amenities include a Robert Trent Jones II golf course, beachfront rum bars, diverse dining (notably spiny lobster at Mango), a Kids for All Seasons cultural program, and a long-running sea turtle conservation initiative." - Laura Begley Bloom
