Photos and Description of the Long Point vacation cottage rental Delightful one-room cottage (bathroom with shower) has full cooking facilities

The cottage is perfect for an individual, a couple, or parents with 1 or 2 small children. Its bright and beautiful decor features art work by local artists. The West Indies-style architecture features a high ceiling and ceiling fan to maximize the cooling effects of the breezes from the Atlantic. There is a queen-size bed, a sofa bed, and 3 eating areas: inside with a view of gardens and sea; on the porch overlooking the Caribbean; and in the back patio, which provides a view of Mt Nevis volcano and other hills. At the Cottage, you're surrounded by superb gardens, and you have your own outdoor hot-tub, in seclusion provided by bougainvillea, oleanders, palms, and citrus trees. The cottage is on the same multi-acre property as Black Sand Cove Beach House, but is completely separate, with its own entrance gate and complete privacy thanks to the landscaping design by Julie Toll (well-known in Britain as multi-award winner at Chelsea Flower Show).

Location: St Kitts & Nevis

Nearest Airport: Nevis airport at 4 Miles
Car: recommended
Nevis is a small island, quite undeveloped for the Caribbean, and off the beaten track. Nature, hiking, enjoying the rain forest and the fabulous views: these are popular activities along with swimming, snorkeling, scuba, strolling on beaches, and watching the sea and the clouds. There are lots of great restaurants, but for casinos, nightlife, and shopping, better choose a different island! For peaceful enjoyment of nature, we recommend Nevis as tops!

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Long Point, St Kitts & Nevis

cottage conveniences: The cottage has a washer/dryer in a closet off the back patio. We have DSL Internet access for those who travel with a laptop. You can eat on the front porch (for morning shade), on the back patio (for mountain and garden views), or indoors by the glass doors to enjoy the view. Our comprehensive guest information binders give recommendations for our favorite restaurants and activities, with details about where to go and how to get there. You can see dozens of photos on Nevis and of Black Sand Cove if you go to our website and click on the Gallery.

Enjoying Black Sand Cove: The beautiful and innovative-designed gardens at Black Sand Cove were designed and developed by Julie Toll. Julie has won many garden design awards in England, including 4 Gold and 2 Silver awards at the famous Chelsea Flower Show. Her special interest is maximizing the use of native species, and creating ecologically-sound landscaping. Secluded on our private acreage, you'll hear only the sounds of nature: the wind in the banana trees, the birds, the crickets and frogs, and the waves on the short of the virtually private beach. (While all beaches are public property on Nevis, the only way to get to this beach is by boat or down our stairway.) The 360-degree views provide fabulous sunrises and sunsets, and the passing spectacle of the changing clouds all day long. This is a great place to get away from it all, and relax, write, paint, play music, or just give your mind a rest. With temperatures in the 80's all year, you may have trouble leaving.

Other Activities: rain forest hikes, bird-watching

Linda, The botanical gardens of Nevis rival yours at Black Sand Cove, not vice versa. The flowers, hummingbirds, palms, full moon, stars, peace and quiet combined to provide a wonderfully regenerative experience. It inspired my song in the guestbook at the cottage, "Frangipani in the Moonlight", which has been well recieved by a number of audiences. It was good to be back on Nevis and there is no place we would rather stay. It was an even better place to be while Mexico, NY was being buried under 88 inches of snow this past February. Hope to be back soon.

The cottage at Black Sand Cove is a little piece of heaven on Earth. Perfectly situated to be private, secluded, peaceful, but close enough to everything you might want to see and do on the island. The gardens are magnificent and Adolfo's smiling face and vast wisdom are delightful bonuses! The secluded beach is beautiful and the back porch is the best place to be!!

We found the cottage to be perfectly equipped with everything we needed and more and the Guide Book was our most valuable resource (next to Adolfo!!). Linda's rental car was a lucky find, too, and we enjoyed exploring the island on our own.

Paradise for "ahneemoonahs" like us.

Hi Linda,
I wanted to take a quick minute to tell you how pleased I am with Black Sand Cottage. It is absolutely perfect for one person or a couple. It takes about 15 minutes of sitting on the porch and listening to the sounds of nature inorder to completely "decompress from the "real world stresses". I mentioned to Adolfo that of all the places that I have traveled to (including Hawaii, Bermuda, Europe) Black Sand ranks as one of, if not the most beautiful. The grounds with all the flowering plants are exquisite and no picture does it justice. Plus, there is the added bonus of having ( an on-site concierge) Adolfo, who is so caring and concerned that I have a pleasant stay. He is a true gem!
You have not left out one detail (I find it amazing that you would even include your store bonus # from Rams....wow).
I can't thank you enough for this experience....and I still have a week left here....absolutely fantastic.
Next year, I hope to rent both houses and bring my daughters and their spouses.
Thanks again,
GRG

I recently had the pleasure of calling the Cottage at Black Sand Cove my "home away from home" Oct. 28 - Nov. 4. As others have stated, what is pictured on the website is a true representation of what you will discover upon your arrival. The accomodations are superb, Adolfo is great, and worth every cent. You will not regret booking your stay here while in beautiful Nevis. Kudos to Tim and Linda Burkett for providing such wonderful accomodations and to Adolfo for working tirelessly to maintaining the beauty of Black Sand Cove!

Seeing is believing...the Cottage at Black Sand Cove is exactly as described and more. As well as the garden, cottage and beach, I was thoroughly impressed with the extremely well-furnished kitchen with modern appliances and the spacious brightness of the room. Our day began gazing at Mt. Nevis and the back gardens while basking in rising sun and ended watching the sea absorbing the setting sun. Read the reviews, they are written honestly and I concur. Peace, solitude, beauty, nature. Although it is located a short distance off a paved road, you must travel on an unpaved road to get to the property and a vehicle [preferable 4-wheel drive] is needed. The property reflects thoughtful design, attention to details and consistent maintenance. Owners are dedicated and conscientious and have lovingly created [and thankful they share] a beautiful oasis.
