Charlestown, Nevis - After three years, The Mount Nevis Hotel in Newcastle, Nevis West Indies is re-opening its doors to welcome old friends and meet new ones. This family owned and operated hotel has undergone a refresh, beautifying its 17-acres and refurbishing its 45 rooms and suites. The view remains as spectacular as ever. The hotel is also happy to announce a new restaurant, led by Chef Liam. Chef Liam gained his qualifications at the Bournemouth & Poole College, where he worked in the most prestigious hotels in the area. He spent 6 years in London honing his culinary abilities in a 5-star hotel in Kensington before returning to his home region of south coast where he took a position in a Michelin star restaurant, where he found a deep passion for patisserie.
“To have a historic hotel such as The Mount Nevis Hotel re-open is thrilling for us since this property encapsulates the beauty of our island for guests to enjoy,” said Devon Liburd, CEO of the Nevis Tourism Authority. “Providing travelers with excellent accommodation options continues elevating the Nevis experience.”
Markeeta’s love for food took her to London where she pursued a career in culinary arts. She worked her way through the ranks and ran a busy restaurant in central London before securing a position in a fine dining restaurant of Gorden Ramsey’s protégéé. Markeeta traveled to Saint Maarten with Chef Liam where she was a vital part of the kitchen team. Upon returning to the UK, Markeeta was determined to develop her management skills, as well as her customer care skills. Within her role of a business catering manager in a private healthcare hospital, she undertook a Level 3 in management and was awarded a distinction.
As part of their re-opening celebrations, The Mount Nevis Hotel is also promoting a special offer for the month of December. If guests book 7 nights at the hotel they will receive 2 more nights to enjoy all that Nevis has to offer - free of charge.
The Mount Nevis Hotel is comprised of 45 rooms within five pavilions. Each room is decorated to capture the Nevisian charm and character and all of them have their own balcony and patio.
Equipped with 200-year church grounds and the lush hotel grounds - The Mount Nevis Hotel provides a picturesque backdrop for special occasions and events such as weddings. Catering to the intimate wedding trend, the property also offers the “Simply Us” package which offers couples everything they need for the wedding of their dreams.
Apart from their luxurious hotels, Nevis also offers experiences for the avid adventurer and history aficionado. Nevis Island's 3,232-foot volcano appears to be a hardly daunting rolling hill. Located at the very center of Nevis, the stratovolcano rises to 985 meters and is the highest point on the island. Hills & Valleys Hike and Tours offers a hike up to the Nevis peak for travelers seeking the ultimate scenic adventure. In hospitable Nevis fashion, the island provides guides to lead you to the top, while exploring the native flora and fauna, such as bamboo, tropical fruits and vervet monkeys. Nevis also offers a world of possibilities for scuba diving, with dozens of reefs, wrecks, and volcanic vents to explore just minutes offshore. Biking tours are also another wonderful way to spend a morning or afternoon along Nevis' coastline, giving a unique perspective on the island's green landscape.
