Amazing
We went to St Kitts to celebrate our grandmother’s 100th birthday and to have a family reunion. There were over 150 people staying in different locations and different parts of the island. We were the lucky ones to have chosen to stay at Hillside Villa. When you look at the pictures online, it doesn’t do it justice. It’s an amazing, beautiful and well designed villa. It is huge. It has all the home comforts you could ask for.
From the very beginning of the booking Susie was so helpful, approachable and informative and I felt at ease knowing that I would be well supported and looked after. Susie informed us that we would have to have 4x4s to get to the villa as the hill was very steep; however, after two or three goes it became ok.
We arrived in St Kitts at 5.30pm and Susie was there to meet us with her property manager Franklin. They had especially come out to meet us as the car hire company had let us down and we were kind of stranded which was very upsetting as we had young children with us. Susie and her A-Team rallied round took half of the party with the young children back to the villa whilst Franklin the property manager took us to the supermarket to get food for the night. They were absolute stars.
We found out later that Susie had a spent a lot of time trying to sort out the car hire problem on our behalf. This was over and above what we expected. It was getting dark by then and we were very unhappy about the car situation, however, we survived.
The next morning when we work up we were able to see the luxurious surroundings we were in, even as a group we had no chance of getting under each other’s feet because of the vastness of the villa. The views were absolutely beautiful and you could actually see Nevis from the villa. Every room in the villa had a gorgeous view of the surrounding area.
The infinity pool was fabulous and it was difficult trying to keep the children out of it. All the outdoor furniture was well placed around the villa so that you weren’t tired of sitting in the same place and you had several areas to choose from if you wanted to sit outside. The kitchen was well stocked with various pots, pans and dishes to cover our large group and more. The villa was great for entertaining guests and of course all the IT nerds in our group loved having the wifi!
We were in the vicinity of some very good beaches and restaurants. We spent a lot of time on Reggae Beach with the children, a lovely vibrant and frie
