Download or read book St Kitts Nevis Travel Adventures written by KC. Nash and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up until a few years ago, St. Kitts and Nevis were the type of islands that tourists delighted in "discovering." Seemingly untouched by modern times, they seemed like the "old" Caribbean -small, intimate hotels, pristine beaches, uncluttered roads, with acres of cane fields and rainforests dominating the landscape. But now two large chain hotels -the Marriott in St. Kitts and the Four Seasons in Nevis -have broadened the options. Along with the resorts have come three golf courses, a new cruise ship port area with duty-free shops and a marine park. But you still find hints of the old laid-back islands here, especially in the delightful plantation inns on both islands. These small hotels, built around historical buildings and sugar mills, still have a colonial charm. They are furnished with Caribbean antiques and emphasize the old-fashioned standards of warm, personalized service. So it is possible to sample both the charm of the old world and the activities of the new. This is a uniquely valuable guide to these islands, excerpted from our complete guide to the Leeward Islands, with complete details on where to stay, where to eat and what to do while you are there. Maps and photographs throughout. If you stay on St. Kitts, be sure to allow at least one day to visit Nevis, which is just a short ferry ride or a 10-minute flight away. The main port city there, Charlestown, is a study in historic preservation. Many of the 'skirt-and-blouse' structures -where the first level is stone and the second is wood siding -are still standing and are now being used for offices and stores. The stately old churches such as St. John's Anglican and the historic Cottle Church reinforce the sense of history. In addition, the Nevis Botanical Gardens offer a beautiful respite from the world, where you can learn about the unique plants of the Caribbean and enjoy the beauty of carefully designed displays of orchids, roses, bromeliads and fruit trees. While the wild vervet monkeys are endemic to both islands, they are more frequently sighted in Nevis, running across roads (and the golf course at the Four Seasons) or sitting in trees.

Download or read book St Barts Travel Adventures written by K. C. Nash and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whenever you hear about St. Barts, itOCOs usually in connection with which celebrities are partying there. ItOCOs definitely known as the island of the stars. Why is that? Well, it may be because of the islandOCOs pristine beauty. And while itOCOs small, only eight square miles, there are a lot of hills, inlets, coves, beaches and tropical landscape packed into that space. Driving around the island, wherever you go, the villages are neat, houses are well-tended, roads are good (although narrow and winding), and even the cemeteries are beautiful. Then there are the hotels and villas. The hotels have been carefully planned to be small and precious, with an emphasis on exquisite service and a guarantee of privacy. The luxurious private villas outnumber the available hotel rooms and overlook the sparkling turquoise sea. The villas are self-contained residences with wait staff, pools, Jacuzzis, and home theaters OCo ideal for hiding from crowds of admirers and paparazzi. But wait, there are also the restaurants. The French heritage shines through loud and clear, and the fusion of French and Creole cuisines is offered in gorgeous settings. Even the plentiful beach restaurants turn the typical barbecue and burger fare into gourmet experiences. But the choices also include American favorites. After all, this is St. Barts and the watchword is: You want it? You got it. With its long history as a duty-free port, you know there are some bargains to be had. The shops in Gustavia and St. Jean offer couture clothing, accessories, jewelry and more. ItOCOs Parisian shopping in paradise. And no doubt a big part of the allure comes from what the island doesnOCOt have OCo flashy casinos, high-rise hotels and crowded beaches. The real draw of St. Barts, whether you are rich or poor, is the chance to enjoy the ambiance and character of France in a tropical setting. The island is part of Guadeloupe, a department of France, the official language is French, the electrical current is 220 and the official form of money is the euro. There is a distinctly European feel to the entire island that combines with island nuances for a unique cross-cultural experience. Here is a unique guide to the island, excerpted from our complete guide to all of the Leeward Islands, complete with maps and photographs. Where to stay, where to dine, what to do - everything is covered in detail."

Book excerpt: Savannah Grace's best selling, award winning saga of her family's four-year-long backpacking adventure continues. "Backpacks and Bra Straps" picks up where "I Grew My Boobs in China" leaves off, offering insights into how family dynamics are affected by such intensive togetherness as well as a candid, intriguing look at world-wide travel and the camaraderie of the backpacking community, told from a perceptive young woman's viewpoint. This second instalment of her Sihpromatum series takes us to Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, through Western China and Tibet, and finally, to watch the sun rise over Mount Everest in Nepal. Savannah's initial reluctance to travel and the personal growth she documents distinguishes this raw tale from most travel memoirs. See website for photos and more info... www.sihpromatum.com
Download or read book Anguilla Travel Adventures written by K. C. Nash and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The continually expanding popularity of Anguilla, especially with the rich and famous, has caught everyone by surprise. After all, at first glance Anguilla looks to be nothing special. It's a long, narrow flat island, 16 miles long by three miles wide, with constant droughts and a notable absence of the lush rainforests, beautiful mountains, rushing rivers or deep canyons that normally provide all the activities today's tourist clamors for. But Anguilla's trump card is its beaches. Spectacular even in this region where above-average beaches are the norm, Anguilla's wide swaths of sparkling white sand and bright turquoise waters teeming with tropical fish are indeed something special. It's a point well taken by island planners and developers who have built luxury resorts on those beaches. Many of those resorts quickly qualified as prime hotels of the world. Properties like Cap Juluca, CuisinArt and Malliouhana are routinely ranked at the top of the "best" lists in Caribbean Travel & Life, Conde Nast Traveler, and Travel & Leisure. This is the best guide to Anguilla, excerpted from our extensive guide to all of the Leeward Islands, complete with maps, photos and details on where to stay, where to eat, nightlife and all activities. Besotted visitors have created a market for luxury villa and home sales that have developers madly working to provide choices for them. Covecastles and Altamer were among the first individual-owner villas; their units are sold and now are available for vacation rentals. They have since been joined by other impressive developments, among them the St. Regis Temenos, the Viceroy and Cerulean, and there are a number of private individual villas dotting the landscape all over the island. These new homes not only add to the available rooms for visitors, but also provide a significant boost to the local economy as contractors, interior designers and support service providers keep employment and retail sales high. Anguillians have a long history of looking after each other and visitors. They enjoy sharing their island with visitors, and you'll find you are received with warmth and goodwill. Their history is rich with examples of "jollifications" or merry festivities where a whole village gathered to plant crops, raise a house or build a boat as a team. Everyone was there to help each other, and money was never exchanged. This spirit of oneness extended into an understanding of hospitality in the truest sense of the word. Make sure you plan activities that take you out of your hotel and into the villages so you can meet some of "the belongers," as they call themselves. More than any other Leeward Island, Anguilla has a wealth of beautiful villas in all sizes and shapes, along with world-class hotels, five-star restaurants, lots of activities and incredible beaches. If there aren't enough activities, shopping, restaurants or nightlife for you, St. Martin is only a short ferry ride away.
