Simply Magical

Where to start? This was a magical place. We wanted to avoid the commercialization that has occurred on many other Caribbean islands while also enjoying the superior quality and top-notch service of Four Seasons Resort Nevis. They catered to our every need, and our wedding party of 65 couldn’t have been happier. It was something we will never forget.

Our Dream Wedding

When we set out to find a destination wedding location, we zeroed in on Nevis. And when we arrived at The Hermitage, it was as if we had stumbled into a dream. The food, the staff and the service were some of the best I've ever experienced. If you are looking for an authentic, Caribbean vacation or wedding, look no further. This is one of the most special places on earth.
-Rachel C.

Just Beautiful

My spouse and I had the opportunity to wed on the island of Nevis. Our wedding was beautiful. The food, ambiance, staff, and accommodations at Montpelier Plantation and Beach—recommended by friends who own property here—exceeded expectations. We were married on the beach at sunset, and Nevis will forever hold a very special place in our hearts.
