Photos and Description of this Long Point holiday 3BR Oceanfront Vacation Rental Charlestown, St. Kitts and Nevis

Our vacation house is set amid delightful gardens in a secluded part of this out-of-the-way island. The West Indies-style house features a new kitchen, a large screened porch facing the sea, a patio with views of the volcano and other hills, and a swimming pool. There are two bedrooms, a sleeping porch, and three baths -- plus a sofa bed in the living room. The two bedrooms have air-conditioning for warm summer nights. Local artwork complements the home's lovely color scheme. Sitting at the convenient, built-in computer desk with Internet access for your laptop, you'll enjoy an expansive view of the sea. The high, vaulted ceilings, traditional wooden awnings, and ceiling fans maximize the cooling Atlantic breezes coming over the mountains behind you. A beautiful wooden staircase takes you through gardens and down to a lovely secluded beach with soft black sand.

Nevis is a small island, comparatively undeveloped, and off-the-beaten-track. Nature, hiking, enjoying the rainforest and the fabulous views: these are popular activities along with swimming, snorkeling, and scuba. Nevis has lot of nice restaurants, but if you're looking for casinos, nightlife, and shopping, you need a different island. For peaceful enjoyment of nature, we recommend Nevis as tops!

Further details for this holiday rental in Long Point, St Kitts & Nevis

Amenities include Internet access, a washer/dryer, and a grill on the patio. The beautiful and innovatively designed gardens were developed by Julie Toll, who has won many awards in England, including 4 Gold and 2 Silver awards at the famous Chelsea Flower Show. Her special interest is the use of native species, and environmentally-sound landscaping. Secluded on our private acreage, you'll hear only the sounds of nature: the wind in the banana trees, the birds, the crickets, and the waves on the shore of the virtually private beach. (While all beaches are public property on Nevis, the only way to get to this beach is down our stairway.) The 360-degree views provide fabulous sunrises and sunsets, and the passing spectacle of the changing clouds all day long. This is a great place to get away from it all, and relax, write, paint, play music, or just give your mind a rest.

On the sides of Mt. Nevis, the now-quiet volcano, are tropical forests with near-rainforest vegetation. Our comprehensive guest information books give recommendations for our favorite restaurants and activities, with details about where to go and how to get there. With temperatures in the 80's year-round, guest sometimes tell us they regret having to ever leave!

Review Submitted: December 27, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2008
Loved It! We are return visitors to Nevis, and this was our first time staying at Black Sand Cove, but it definitely won’t be our last. When we booked online we were hopeful that Black Sand Cove would be even half as nice as the photos on the website. It was so much better!

The photos simply cannot convey the sweeping views of the mountain and sea. The setting was so lovely and peaceful, and the grounds are like a private botanical garden full of flowers, tropical plants, and hummingbirds. The view from the pool is stunning, and you can watch everything from local fishing boats to cruise ships sail by. It’s worth getting up early for the sunrises, and the peepers will announce when it’s time for a Caribbean sunset. The house was very comfortable, nicely furnished, and had everything we needed.

After a walk along the coast road, a hike up through the rainforest in Gingerland, or touring around the island, simply cool off in the pool, or head down a few steps to the private volcanic black sand beach. There’s also a new pretty tiled outdoor shower. Even with guests in the Cottage, we felt like we were in our own Nevisian paradise. It’s easy to get around, the Users' Guide has loads of suggestions and information, and if you need anything Adolfo is very welcoming and helpful, but also ever mindful of your privacy.

Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise. It was like staying at your own private resort. The grounds and views are amazing. We enjoyed the pool during the day and screened porch at night. We cooked and ate on the back patio with the awesome view of Mt. Nevis. This was a very much needed quiet and relaxing vacation. I would recommend BSC to anyone who wants to escape to paradise.

Adolfo is amazing. He gives you all the privacy you need, but when you do need him, just give him a call and he is right there to help with anything.

This was the most relaxing vacation the girls and I have ever spent. On day 2 we decided we needed to come back to Black Sand Cove.
All I can say - this is truly paradise.

And... Adolfo is a gem!

My Wife Betsy and I had a wonderful time. Just what the Dr. ordered very relaxing. We just loved Nevis' sleepy demeanor. Loved the Bar B Que at the Water Dept. Loved the lobster Sunshines and really more than anything loved chilling at the house with some Carib or CSR and Cranberry. Looking forward to coming back.
