Independent South Peninsula hotels

"NOT a "Resort" in the least and should not define or advertise themselves that way...that would be my biggest takeaway. Staff was fine with a few key people that were excellent. Some big issues for me at this place though were as I mentioned, that this place should absolutely not refer to itself as a "Resort." There are certain and various expectations that an establishment must meet to define itself as a "resort" and Koi doesn't meet any of them as far as I'm concerned. This term is extremely misleading and NOT the case at all...It's a Hotel with an outdoor pool, that's it. Even the beach that you're on is not accommodating for lying on or swimming, but that is what it is cause you're on the "Atlantic side", not the Caribbean Sea side of the country...key fact that I failed to consider. The restaurant was decent, but definitely seemed pricey to me and after a few nights it can get pretty limited. On the plus side, I will give credit to the rooms themselves. I thought the actual room was easily the best feature of the stay. The extreme spaciousness, balcony, and overall layout of the bathtub and shower with the optional window in between those areas were all very nice. Decent amount of choices on the TV there as well. I did also appreciate and like the fact that they provided at Daily Shuttle at 11 for the guests to one of 3 locations; being between Frigate Bay, Carambola Beach Club, and Shipwreck Beach. I personally liked the down & dirty vibe at Shipwreck the most."

"The location, staff and amenities were great - we had the best time. The only con was that private beach had so much sea weed we could use the beach at all. The property is old but beautiful.. the rooms needs a little TLC but overall great hotel. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Plenty of places to eat outside the resort if you like to go out and about"

"It’s a good place to go to relax. The ov suite was spacious with great ac and water pressure. We had breakfast everyday in the room in the fully equipped kitchen.We were always able to get a lounger and it was quiet for the most part. For the first few days we were able to stay on the beach for sunset. One day there were people that used the lounge chairs that were not guests and they were arguing with people on the beach for smoking.i complained to the desk twice, finally someone came to talk to them but they didn’t leave. We were asked to leave before 5 when they were putting all the lounge chairs away but the non guests stayed until sunset with the lounge chairs. The next day the entire beach was being set up for a festival and again we were asked to leave. We weren’t informed about the festival. However, if you’re looking for a good deal, it’s a good place to stay."

"Landsay he is awesome! He did everything its possible to make my stay the best in St Kitts! I have been here for 2 weeks but most time i traveled, went to Saba, Statia with Ferry, to Puerto Rico with flight , and of course when i was here i went to Nevis , the beach its amazing there, the ferry 2 minutes walk from this hotel , so everything was great!!! Just having my last beer here on the balcony;)"

"This house was awesome. From the open floor plans on the main floor that expand directly out onto the veranda and infiniti pool with an absolutely remarkable postcard view of Turtle Bay and the volcano island Nevis. 3 nice rooms all with AC to make sure you sleep cozy too. The full kitchen was a blessing too, to help with easy meals in between island adventures and beach time. The main beach over by Reggae Beach Bar is fantastic. Beautiful blue and calm waters, with tons of additional water sports to add-on if you choose. The food there was very solid (highly recommend their blackened fish sandwich) and dont miss Lobster night on Friday evenings. The only issue on this trip were the amount of sargum algea blooms that completely desimated Turtle Bay Beaches themselves, which made them almost completely unuseable, but thats not the owners fault, and as we know Mother Nature bats .1000, but with Reggea Beach over in Cockshell Bay is just a quick & easy 12 min walk from the villa. All in all though, this villa was outstanding and my wife and I would gladly come back and stay here again!"

"This hotel was perfect - clean, friendly staff and quiet. Would stay again! "

"Loved the kitchen attached to the room, staff wonderfully helpful and friendly. AC efficient."

"The Ocean Song Cottage is a true gem. The view and surrounding gardens are beautiful. We enjoyed visits from monkeys, lizards, hummingbirds and a variety of other birds. The cottage is lovely inside with everything you need, plus an eclectic mix of local treasures. We loved the outdoor shower and tub. The property manager Franklin was very helpful and quick to respond. We would love to return!"

"Ideally located to many restaurants, activities and Timothy Hill Beach. Service from staff is exceptional. Accommodation is comfortable however the infrastructure is a bit dated and when there is sargassum on the beach, the smell is overwhelming. We had a garden room so only affected by it when we went to the pool closer to the sea. "
