The Elegant Nisbet Plantation – Nevis, West Indies

Nevis, West Indies (PRWEB)
June 6, 2008

Reaching Nisbet Plantation Beach Club, the Caribbean’s #1 Luxury Hotel according to TripAdvisor’s 2008 Travelers’ Choice Awards, is easier than ever with free airport transfers available in July. Combined with the Sultry Summer Savings, this offer is a rare opportunity.

For all Nisbet Plantation guests arriving in July and staying six or more nights, the hotel will pre-arrange free airport transfers. Guests will receive complimentary round-trip transportation for two (per room) from either the Nevis airport (NEV) or St. Kitts airport (SKB)*.

 To celebrate summer Nisbet makes it easier than ever to get to and offers great summer rates  
As always, a Nisbet greeter will meet guests at the airport (hence the reason for advance arrangements) and personally assist them in getting to Nisbet Plantation. From the Nevis airport, Nisbet is a short 10-minute taxi ride. From St. Kitts airport (with recent new non-stops from New York and Atlanta), the primary transport is a refreshing water taxi ride. Guests are whisked by taxi from the airport to the water taxi and picked up by a taxi in Nevis. All in all, it’s about 45 minutes and a $275 value.

“To celebrate summer Nisbet makes it easier than ever to get to and offers great summer rates,” says Nisbet General Manager Glen Hurd. “Many of our guests insist that reaching Nisbet by water is the most scenic and romantic way to arrive.” Nisbet is extending this offer to any guest flying into St. Kitts or Nevis — guests must book at least six nights and arrive in July to receive two round-trip transfers.

*For nighttime transports after 6 p.m., there is a $50 charge per person.

In addition to the free transfers, guests can take advantage of the Sultry Summer Savings special and save up to 20% off the lowest rates of the year depending on the length of stay:

Nisbet Plantation Takes On Mother Nature

(Nevis, West Indies)
It might seem like David vs. Goliath, but tiny Nisbet Plantation, a 36-room luxury hotel in Nevis has thrown down the gauntlet and is taking on Mother Nature in a major conservation project to reduce beach erosion, preserve its native palm trees and create a more hospitable marine habitat. 

Rather than using a sling-shot, Nisbet”˜s weapon of choice is the construction of an artificial reef just off its shore.

In the 1700’s, long before air conditioning, all the Caribbean’s sugar plantation Great Houses were built high in the mountains where cooler air came naturally.  The lone exception is Nisbet Plantation which today has become famous for being the only deluxe plantation inn located directly on its own private beach.  Preserving the beach is a priority for environmentally conscious Nisbet.

Over the last decade wave erosion has caused the loss of several palm trees close to the sea.  Nisbet, which received its Green Globe Benchmarked Certificate last July, has initiated its new conservation project to preserve all its trees and reduce erosion of the beach.  It is embarking on the construction of an artificial reef to reduce the energy of waves reaching the beach. When completed, the artificial reef will measure over 65 yards in length.
