10/10 Exceptional

I cannot imagine a more serene, authentic, inviting and hospitable hotel and staff that mirrored the same. Everyone from the owner, to the front desk, the restaurant staff, housekeeping and gardening - were remarkably wonderful. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful with several appealing options! The bar is a fantastic throw back in time, well stocked and wonderful to share a drink in! The grounds are impeccable, manicured yet very homey. The rooms and buildings are rustic and so welcoming. There is so much history and the hotel has been preserved beautifully. It’s clear that the owner and staff take great pride and care deeply about their place and their guest’s experience. We will definitely return!
Jane, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

The best thing about Hermitage is the cozy bar and Shawn who was friendly and helpful. Lady at the front desk, not so much. Almost never on duty and gives you the look that says, "what do you want? you're bothering me." The food in the restaurant was expensive and mediocre. We only ate dinner there once and won't again. Bananas and Luna are far better for the same money. The pool was nice, especially with a water aerobics class. The rooms are cute but not air conditioned, so we ran a noisy fan all night. We loved the main house, a museum of island life from the past.

The Hermitage is unique and rustic, it takes you back in time. I was able unplug myself and relax. I especially enjoyed the Wednesday pig roast. I put my meals on my room and didn’t have cash to tip. I ask to have additional money added to my bill at checkout. I hope it was received.
Calvin, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet, off the beaten track

We stayed at the Hermitage for 5 nights at the start of our honeymoon and we found the overall experience very enjoyable. The staff were overall quite friendly and the property was very well maintained. The hotel is quite far from the beach but there is a small swimming pool on the property. We enjoyed tennis, walks in the hills and a lot of lying around in a hammock sipping on a rum punch. The food is really excellent and the buffet night is not to be missed (suckling pig roasted on a spit for 10 hours under a mango tree on the property, plus loads of other local dishes, including a huge veggie selection). We went out of season so the property was very quiet (as was the rest of the island) but it was just what we needed after the stress of organising a wedding. If you're looking for a peaceful few days on Nevis I would highly recommend it.

10/10 Exceptional

The Hermitage is simple beautiful. It is one of those places that has real soul. From the beautiful historical living and dining spaces to the very comfortable room we cannot fault this lovely boutique hotel. The bed was comfortable and it had excellent mosquito nets . The shower provided good pressure and a choice of hot or cold. The staff were simply brilliant , they cannot do enough to make one comfortable but they do it in a low key fashion so one feels looked after but they do not invade your privacy . The pool is gorgeous and is located in beautiful tropical gardens. The food was simply delicious from an excellent breakfast with a wide choice from muesli with home made yoghurt to full cooked breakfast. The lunch menu provides a choice of salads, sandwiches or main meals. The evening meal was excellent from Mahi-mahi to pasta dishes and on Friday really delicious thin crust pizza from their pizza oven . The Hermitage is a peaceful haven where one can recharge and recover from our modern day world. Because it is located in the foothills of Nevis one is woken to bird song and in the evening troops of monkeys come down to play and feast in the trees surrounding the property. It is one of the oldest remaining buildings in the Caribbean and is finished with lovely antiques . A well stocked library and gentle classical music assist to make it a lovely escape . We had a wonderful stay in early October. Thankyou

The property is spectacular. You are truly out in a natural setting. We had a small cabin, and it was perfectly maintained. Breakfast included, and it was excellent. Host and staff took great care of us.
