A Nevis Getaway Inspired By “Hamilton”

By: - May 23rd, 2016

Today’s most popular musical, “Hamilton,” has its roots on the Eastern Caribbean island of Nevis, where the eponymous Founding Father was born.

And now the island’s best hotel, the Four Seasons Resort Nevis, is offering a special getaway inspired by Hamilton.

The resort has launched the Hamilton’s Perfect Union package, combining “romance luxury and relaxation.”

The getaway includes a trip to the Museum of Nevis History and the neighboring Hamilton House that was Hamilton’s childhood home.

It also includes a private guided hike through Hamilton Estate, once a sugar plantation of the Hamilton family.

It also features candlelit beach dinner accompanied by a local historian.

Of course, with history comes relaxation, including one day at one of the resort’s private beach cabanas and a special nighttime “Spa Under the Stars” offer.

The trip comes with VIP airport lounge service in neighboring St Kitts for arrival and departure.
