This international destination resort offers attractions for families, couples, groups, and conventions. An atrium with massive wood beams soars four stories above marble floors and mosaic-tile inlays in the lobby and shopping arcade. Past granite waterfall walls, stairs lead past a scaled-down replica of Columbus' Santa Maria and to an enormous plaza lit by wrought iron street lamps.

Known locally as OTI, the resort is set on a flower-bestrewn hillside overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The hotel attracts families and couples seeking West Indian ambience, as well as business travelers and locals celebrating special occasions. Artifacts on display include cannons and an anchor from an 18th-century slave ship captained by Long John Silver.

This moderately priced resort appeals to families and couples desiring traditional European plan or all-inclusive holidays on an ocean beach without the frantic activity of a larger property. The resort has views of St. Kitts' green hills and mountains.

This quiet resort attracts leisure travelers seeking a moderately-priced holiday on St. Kitts. Because the hotel is located on a narrow peninsula between the Caribbean and the Atlantic, guests have access to two beaches. A quarter-mile-long sand strip is lapped by the calm Caribbean next to the resort, while a four-mile stretch of sand runs along the rougher Atlantic side, one mile away.
