HISTORY The marked history on the islands revolves around the dominance of former sugar cane plantations and plantation living, with Horatio Nelson (a historically heroic British naval officer) and Alexander Hamilton (one of the founding fathers of the United States) as principle figures in the islands' colonial history. The colonial history of St. Kitts and Nevis is quite complex, with the English and French disputing the control of the islands for centuries. St. Kitts and Nevis finally gained full independence from the United Kingdom in 1983 and today inhabitants from both islands are primarily descendants of African slaves. LUXURY LODGING St. Kitts and Nevis are host to a handful of exclusive hotels, including the Four Seasons Resort Nevis and Park Hyatt St. Kitts. Read on, pack your bags, and experience this island heaven duet in luxury and sophistication.
