Deal of the Week: Sultry Summer Offer from Nisbet Plantation

Nisbet

There’s a lot to love about Nisbet Plantation in Nevis, especially for lovers. Don’t get me wrong – families can enjoy magical vacation experiences here too, but just look at this place. It doesn’t scream romance (that would be too bourgeois) so much as it whispers it, gently; a soft kiss sure to follow.
Classic properties like this are a real treat to me. Service and pampering here are born of an established tradition enjoyed by the traveling elite for generations. At the same time, all the modern amenities found at today’s newest resorts are readily available. Two of my favorites at Nisbet: free Wifi (not as widely available at Caribbean resorts as you might think) and complimentary use of a Flip digital video camera to capture vacation memories.

Deal of the Week: Save 40% Off Summer Luxe at The House, Barbados

Open air lounge at The House, Barbados

I just checked in at The House here in Barbados , and, put simply, this place is fantastic. From the moment I strolled onto the property, I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying the height of hospitality with a distinctly Bajan, laid-back elegance. The property is a beauty of contrasts with white washed walls, crisp white uniforms and immaculately clean white furnishings playing off dark mahogany colored floors and blue accents on collars, umbrellas and picture frames. Small, intimate and brimming with a boutique style that would leave most Miami Beach establishments green with envy, The House is a superb place to while away your Barbados days in the lap of luxury and extremely capable hands.

Tuesday 2 Cents: Jenny Mullen’s Five-Star Family Vacation

Jenny(Nevis)

Most top-10 lists of the Caribbean’s best family vacation destinations would not include Nevis. Small and wonderfully sleepy, Nevis takes pride in offering vacation experiences that “take you back to a time when things were simpler” (think 1950′s Caribbean before the development boom). This fits perfectly for couples and nature lovers enticed by the island’s ultra-luxury resorts, historic plantation inns and exotic flora and fauna. But for short attention span 21st century kids; not so much.
Enter the Mullen’s, a South Florida-based British family of four who vacationed in Nevis recently. For them the Queen of the Caribees was perfect. Why? We sat down with Jenny Mullen, mother and chief vacation-planner, to find out.
