Fodor's Review:

Physically, this inn best evokes the old-time plantation atmosphere on Nevis, thanks to creative restoration (the original cistern is now the pool, and stone outbuildings hold public spaces and guest rooms). Yet it lacks personality. The setting is exceptionally pretty, with Mount Nevis looming in the background, apricot-and-jade buildings enveloped by tropical landscaping, and cannons and rusting sugar-factory equipment forming a virtual abstract sculpture garden. Despite occasional halfhearted renovations (TVs are still promised), large rooms remain a hodgepodge. The best have exposed wood beams, stone walls, polished hardwood floors, marble double vanities, and four-poster beds. Others are gloomy (reading lights are a chronic problem) or resemble a garage sale, contrasting tatty madras settees with contemporary curved white sofas and soiled rugs. The respected Cooperage restaurant features a top-notch nouvelle Continental menu and sensational sea views.
