Itinerary

Day 1

On arrival in Saint Kitts you will be met by our representative and transferred by road and water taxi to the beautiful Montpelier Resort on Nevis. Built around an 18th century sugar plantation, historical features have been incorporated into the resort such as the stone sugar mill, now home to an intimate, fine dining restaurant.

Day 2

Your first full day at leisure. Why not explore the capital, Charlestown. Small enough to be explored on foot, there are a couple of museums here and you can visit the courthouse where pirates were prosecuted.

Day 3

This small, friendly island is easy to drive round, so why not hire a car and take a leisurely tour round the Heritage Trail on the island's only main road.

Day 4

Most of the day is free for you to explore. Or if you would prefer to relax, the resort has a beautiful pool as well as a quiet beach club.

Late this afternoon transfer back to the airport in time for your flight to Antigua. On arrival you will be met and transferred by private vehicle to The Inn at English Harbour. The journey down to the south coast will take about 45 minutes.

Day 5

Today is your first day at leisure at this charming and characterful hotel. You may wish to enjoy the complimentary water sports, or simply relax on the beautiful beach.

Day 6

If you would like to explore, take one of the trails through the national park in which the resort is set. Or perhaps head to Shirley Heights for great panoramic views over the harbor. It's well worth visiting on a Sunday for the sunset party with a steel band and barbecue.

Day 7

Today, why not take advantage of the hotel's proximity to English Harbour to visit the marina and explore historic Nelson's Dockyard?

Day 8

Antigua is very popular with sailors and hosts many international regattas. Why not head out on a sailing excursion today? Alternatively take a trip to the pristine pink sands of nearby Barbuda, Antigua's little sister.

Days 9 - 10

At leisure.

Day 11

You have most of the day at leisure before transferring back to the airport in time for your overnight flight home.

Day 12

Arrive home.

If you want a trip of a lifetime then this is the company for you. We have used them twice once for Western Canada and more recently for a trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. Both trips exceeded our expectations.

The Tanzania specialist Scott Davenport was extremely helpful and made the trip both memorable and hassle free. An outstanding service and I would highly recommend this company.

This was the first time we had considered having a company plan a holiday for us, I had always planned toad trips myself. However, on this occasion for a long awaited trip to the North East USA, to see the Fall colours, we decided to give Audley travel the opportunity. From the start Audley (in the form of Monty Bampfield) were engaged and helpful in planning our 12 day trip round New England. In depth telephone calls ascertained what we were looking to gain from the trip and what it was we wanted to see. A draft itinerary was produced which we were able to tinker with to align with what we wanted. A comprehensive travel pack was sent to us which gave all the detail and advice we could wish for. The holiday was flawless from Audrey's angle with minor niggles in country being outwith their gift to influence. Not cheap but I guess you get what you pay for. Professional, engaged and highly recommended.

Audley clearly has the resources and contacts to help weave your trip together. In my instance, I needed to make some minor changes to my trip which included one excursion cancellation. Instead of receiving help I received an email admonishing me to stay with my itinerary or else there would be cancellation fees. I was literally badgered by the specialist. I have never been spoken to in this manner and am (obviously) still smarting from this treatment. I don't know how this may help others except to say "caveat emptor".

What a fantastic holiday in Australia and Fiji we've just returned from, organised from start to finish by our Audley representative Jindy Sangha.
The trip exceeded our expectations in so many ways. Starting with time in the Darwin Area then on to Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef the 'top end' of Australia was fascinating. Then came Ularu in the heart of Australia such a spiritual and atmospheric environment. The bustling city of Sydney exceeded all expectations. Circular Quay was fascinating and so photogenic with both Harbour Bridge and Opera House. The Botanical gardens are beautiful and trips to Bondi and Manley beaches were not to be missed. Miss Saigon at the Opera House on our last night in Australia provided the pinnacle to our Australian experience. Tokariki island resort, Fiji is the most beautiful environment we have ever been in and the Fijian staff were friendly, courteous and faultless in everything they did. Fiji was a wonderful end to a perfect Golden Wedding celebration.

From start to finish Audley provided my husband and I with the most brilliantly arranged and organised holiday to Japan, exactly tailored to our desires and needs. Malcolm Wellby, our Japan specialist, did a perfect job of interpreting and executing what we wanted from our time in Japan which even now we find hard to believe, as our trip was 17 days long and incorporated many hotels, many train journeys and many guided tours. Every step of the way the ‘self guide’ app. (so easy to use!) that Malcolm asked us to download kept us informed with all the details we needed, even directions to each next destination or meeting point. So useful. The holiday was faultless. What an achievement.

The entire trip to Africa was incredible and went so smoothly. This was largely due to Agent David Katwiwa and Audley’s deep knowledge and resources.
Hotels and Safari Camps and their staffs were superb. And we are “worrywarts” so David’s thoroughness and patience were terrific!

Optional Activities

Spa Facilities

Although not extensive, the lovely little spa offers a range of massage treatments, facials, body exfoliation and reflexology. It also offers manicures and pedicures. For spiritual wellbeing there is also a deep meditation course available, held in the adjacent library.

Activities, diving & excursions

The Inn has a large infinity pool and offers complimentary non-motorized water sports including snorkeling, kayaking and laser sailing.

There are also two tennis courts and if you want to play golf, there are two 18 hole championship golf courses in Cedar Valley or Jolly Harbour. The resort has corporate membership at Cedar Valley so hotel guests don't have to pay green fees there.

Kenty, the head gardener, offers regular tours of the garden which many guests say on their return are a 'must' as he really knows his stuff and has plenty of great stories to tell.

Although there is no dive center at the hotel, the hotel or our local operator can advise on suitable dive operators.

Antigua provides some excellent diving opportunities as the island is surrounded by coral reefs, walls and shipwrecks. The southern and eastern coasts of Antigua are surrounded by shelves providing ideal conditions for spectacular shallow diving and snorkeling. You have the chance to see colorful corals, tropical fish, lobster, stingrays, barracudas and turtles.

Accommodations

Accommodations: Montepelier Plantation & Beach Sat in the shadow of Nevis peak, Montpelier Plantation & Beach is built around one of the islands 18th century sugar plantations. An important piece of Nevis history, Horatio Nelson married Fanny Nesbit, the niece of the President of Nevis, under the boughs of a silk cotton tree in the hotel’s grounds. Once one of the richest plantations in the Caribbean, it was left derelict until the 1960s when it was converted into a luxurious boutique hotel. Historical features have been incorporated into the hotel including the sugar mill itself - now a fine-dining restaurant. It’s run by the Hoffman family, a welcoming presence on site, and is part of the reputed Relais and Chateaux group.

Rooms

The hotel’s 28 rooms and suites are elegantly furnished and well equipped with air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, flat screen TV, iPod docking station, minibar and a private balcony or terrace.

Beach Cabana Room

There are just four Beach Cabana Rooms, which are located right on the beach. Although these rooms are smaller than the suites, with a much simpler decor, they are often in high demand due to their beachfront location.

Deluxe Junior Suite

These suites are very spacious at 60 sq m. Set within two storys, plantation style buildings located within the gardens they offer an elegant decor with a heritage feel including wooden floors and canopy beds.

Junior Suite

Offering a generous 40 sq m of space, these suites are located in the gardens, set back from the beach in two story, plantation style buildings.

The suites have a beautiful heritage feel with mahogany wood floors, canopy beds and shutters. The ground floor suites have a large veranda leading out to the gardens while the first floor suites feature a large terrace/balcony.

Meals Included

The Terrace Restaurant, set on the hillside overlooking the gardens and English Harbour, offers a beautiful setting for alfresco candlelit dining. Adjacent to the restaurant, the cozy Stone Bar, full of memorabilia from Antigua’s maritime past, is perfect for a pre-dinner cocktail.

Breakfast and lunch is served at The Reef Bar & Restaurant down by the beach, which offers a more casual ambience.

If you want to dine outside the hotel, there are plenty of restaurants at Nelson’s Dockyard complex, which is ten minutes by taxi. Please note that many of Nelson's Dockyard's outlets close in the low season so we'd advise calling ahead or asking the advice of the hotel.
