Four Seasons Nevis Day Pass?

[luv_crusing]

Has anyone done the Four Seasons Day Pass on Nevis? It's US$75 per person now on resort pass... 

Should be possible if chartering a water taxi... XC$380 return...

Consider the Math…

2 pax @ $75 = $150 (Nevis Beach Stay - No guarantee of a longer)
Water taxi (Round Trip) say $270
Total: $320

Or

2 pax - Bluewater St Kitts/Nevis Beach trip (Lounger guaranteed) @ $52 each = $104

We did it on a smaller ship that called on Nevis-- didn't have to travel from St Kitts. Its very nice-- exactly what you would expect from Four Seasons. We paid more than $75 so thats a bargain. It is a significant step above the Park Hyatt and Marriott on St Kitts, which are frequently mentioned as day pass alternatives, in terms of quality. Smaller, much better food, faster service, less crowded, beautiful pools right off the beach etc. 

 

Obviously weighing the water taxi travel times/cost will make a difference here-- only worth it if you have a decent amount of time to enjoy. But it is much quieter than St Kitts, especially if there are a few big ships there that day, so worth it from that standpoint.

Hello, Princeton123211! We’re very interested in going to the Four Seasons but I’m having a hard time trying to find how to get there from the St. Kitts cruise port. Are the water taxis close by and easily accessible to be charted? About how much is it per person, if you recall at all? Our ship is there on a Friday, 8a-5p. Is that sufficient time to enjoy the place? Any advice would help. Thanks so much!

There are public ferries and privately chartered options available. It takes about 45 minutes each way so in reality about 2-2.5 hours of your 9 hour port stop will be just spent in transit back and forth to Nevis so take that into consideration when deciding if it's even worth it. When we went our ship was tendering into Nevis so it gave us much more usable time there.

From St Kitts I believe the ferries are about $30 per person. Charters are obviously going to be quite a bit more but most likely will result in more time there and less time waiting for a ferry.

Like I said-- in all reality at least 2.5 hours of your day will be spent on the ferry, waiting for the ferry, and getting to from the FS. And you would need to pad your return by a healthy amount to make sure you don't miss your ship in St Kitts. 

 

Personally not sure it would be worth it for me-- it's a lot of running around. If there was a ships excursion that provides the transportation to and from (and gives you the insurance policy you wont be left behind) that might be worth it. The silver lining is that the FS is very close to the Charlestown Ferry pier.
