Elegant & Spacious Modern Villa with Infinity Pool & Stunning Views. Sleeps 8-10
Aquarius nestles amid palms and mango trees in a quiet spot 400ft up the jungle side of Mount Nevis, yet it is only a 5-minute drive from the longest and best beach on the island, 10 minutes from the quaint 18th Century capital village, Charlestown, and just fifteen minutes from the sleepy little airport, where scheduled airlines fly in daily from Puerto Rico, Antigua and St Marten, the wonderful Amelia will be on call to organise a car to meet you and take you to the villa. We do recommend hiring a car as it is the easiest way to get around the island for shopping and restaurants but also to explore the amazing things Nevis has on offer. There are also regular direct flights to the nearby island of St Kitts from the US, Canada and England, again a car can be arranged to meet you at the airport, drive you for about 20 minutes to the south east tip of the island where a water taxi will transport you the short hop to Oualie Beach on the beautiful island of Nevis. We are delighted to arrange for provisions to be ready for your arrival, should you wish. In the villa there are detailed maps explaining where the best supermarkets and restaurants are situated as well as information on other places of interest.
Aquarius is set in 2 acres of mature landscaped tropical gardens. The villa is on the remote, peaceful edge of Fern Hill Estates. The private infinity pool measuring 32' by 12' is a perfect vantage point to enjoy the spectacular views and sunsets and long enough to swim laps. There is an extensive terrace
The main terrace has all sorts of seating options where guests can sit quietly on more private terraces outside the master bedroom and guest rooms or on the wide covered terrace with a table that sits 10 comfortably (if required) and plenty of cosy armchairs for relaxing or sun-bedson the extended terrace to one side of the pool. Be prepared to be delighted by the extraordinary beauty of the sunsets and the stunning colour and light you will experience.
There is a wide 1500 sq ft mosquito-netted veranda,dining table for 10, 1100 sq ft pool deck, barbecue, 4 sun loungers, wonderful view of the Caribbean Sea and Nevis's sister island, St Kitts, two miles away. Attached there is a double garage with remote controlled doors.

About the host
Hosted by Alice Royden
My husband, Richard, and I have 4 children between us. We are all passionate about travelling and visiting beautiful places, we fell in love with Aquarius and the island of Nevis the moment we arrived. Having spent most of my first 25 years of life in Hong Kong there are many Asian influences in the villa. We are part of the family that own Aquarius.
Why they chose this property
We built this home in 2010 and it holds a very dear place in our hearts. With high ceilings and beautifully proportioned rooms, Aquarius is both elegant and welcoming. The main terrace has all sorts of seating options where guests can sit quietly on more private terraces outside the master bedroom and guest rooms or on the wide covered terrace with a table that sits 12 comfortably (if required) and plenty of cosy armchairs for relaxing or sun-bedson the extended terrace to one side of the pool. Be prepared to be delighted by the extraordinary beauty of the sunsets and the stunning colour and light you will experience. The immaculately equipped kitchen means cooking is an ease or simply ask for a chef to be sent and relax whilst all your wishes are catered for. There is also a large Weber Gas barbecue under a separate roofed cabaña adjacent to the dining area and kitchen.
What makes this property unique
The house works wonderfully as a "family" holiday destination with a wide variety of beaches nearby: the lapping of gentle waves of Pinney and Oualie beaches with their relaxing bars and restaurants or the dramatic surf on the south of the island where there is a hidden gem of a beach we will be prepared to divulge upon your enquiry.... If you are looking for a "romantic" holiday or an elegant and refined home for friends to enjoy exceptional and stunning sunsets in a beautiful location with a delicious "sun downer" in hand then Aquarius is the perfect destination. Whether you are keen to relax and unwind with a book or if teeing-off at dawn is your desire, we believe you will find whatever you want whilst staying at Aquarius on the island of Nevis. Nevis is a dreamy, miniature paradise of 36 sq miles with a balmy climate, cool breezes, calm seas, lovely beaches, colourful forests, mountain walks, elegant old plantation houses and the nicest, friendliest people you could ever hope to meet – people who wave and smile as you drive by. Each golden day is like a time-warp back to the 1950s where people are polite and respectful and crime is rare. There are no flashy nightclubs, vulgar casinos, or rowdy tourists – just a quiet, relaxed, stylish, old-fashioned little haven that still deserves its 18th Century nickname, ‘The Queen of the Caribbees’. The island has numerous little bistros, beach bars and stylish restaurants, 5 banks and 4 excellent, modern supermarkets. Among the many delights are the old sugar plantation houses, some of them in ruins, others now elegant, picturesque hotels: the Montpelier (with delicious restaurant), the Hermitage and the Nisbet. The island is perfect for lovers of walking, hiking, horse riding, sailing, fishing, scuba diving and water skiing, and it is suffused with music: the bouncy reggae and calypso rhythms that waft from balconies and doorways all over Charlestown; the delightful string bands that play their simple but haunting music
