Panoramica
Set on the slopes of Mount Nevis on a teeny-tiny island, Golden Rock Inn is a hilltop hideaway nestled into the jungle, which overlooks the Caribbean Sea. A cluster of brightly painted cottages and former sugar mills have been transformed by appropriately named landscape architect Raymond Jungles and filled with souvenirs from the artist-owners’ Helen and Brice Marden's globetrotting. The meandering paths connecting the cottages are roamed by friendly feral donkeys, who share their vermilion- and indigo-painted home with wilder critters and the Inn’s handful of lucky guests.
Punti salienti:
Low-tech living
Unspoilt island style
Natural beauty
Smith extra
A glass of the inn’s famous rum punch on arrival, plus afternoon tea with shortbread and one glass of prosecco each
Informati
Altre informazioni da conoscere:
Wheelchair access is limited due to the hotel’s hilly location and the steps, rocky paths and cobbles throughout the grounds.All payments include a 10 per cent service charge. The hotel has several hiking trails nearby, including the Source hiking route which heads up Mount Nevis to a natural spring; the chance to spot wild monkeys alone makes it worth packing your walking shoes.
Consigli sui bagagli:
Bring your driving licence. Nevis is easy to explore and hire cars are cheap and readily available (keep to the left).
Dress code:
Blend in with brights or stand out in gauzy white linen; the restaurant is as colourful as the rest of the hotel.
Mr and Mrs Smith Recensioni di
Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this boutique hotel in Nevis and unpacked their duty-free rum and hot pepper sauce, a full account of their Caribbean break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Golden Rock Inn in Nevis…
New York escape artists Helen and Brice Marden have created a masterpiece in Golden Rock Inn, a riotously colourful island hotel splashed across unspoilt jungle on the tiny isle of Nevis. They've concocted a winning holiday formula; the pool shimmers magnificently, like an island amid the greenery, the cottages are cool and calming, with restful terraces, and dining largely consists of fresh seafood in innovative dishes. Any serenity-spoiling distractions are done away with: there are few TVs, no noisy air-conditioning or ringing phones… However, the hotel’s WiFi-connected, so you can switch on or off as you please. You’ll likely choose ‘off’ mode – monkeys swinging through the jungle canopy, tree frogs croaking and twittering birds entice you to put the devices down and enjoy the scenery.

Informazioni per la cena
Ristorante:
The Rocks is renowned across the island for its modern take on Caribbean cuisine. Designed by architect Ed Tuttle (the man behind Aman hotels’ much-loved minimalism), the indoor-outdoor eatery overlooks the gardens and reflecting pools, which sparkle in the sun by day, and are lit with hundreds of oil lamps by night. Chef Ricky Finch’s contemporary Caribbean comfort food focuses on seafood, such as the hotel’s famous lobster sandwich, coconut-curried shrimps or grilled mahi-mahi with orange and clove. Fish-phobes can try spicy savouries like jerk pork with corn fritters and sizzling chicken roti, accompanied by an impressive selection of wines by the bottle.
Top Table:
All meals are served alfresco on dining decks overlooking the sea, but the hotel also has secluded supper spots around the grounds, such as inside the pavilion.
Last Orders:
A la carte breakfast is served 8am–10.30am and lunch is a leisurely 11.30am–3pm. Night owls will need to adjust their timings accordingly as dinner is served 6pm–9pm. The bar opens at 10am and closes at the end of dinner service.
Hotel Bar:
The cool, cave-like setting of the hotel’s bar is ideal for escaping the sun and sampling a glass of fiery, house-rum-laced punch, ubiquitous across the island. Pull up a spindly-legged stool in the vaulted former sugar mill and try the potent signature cocktail, the Mount St Helena (Absolut vodka, jalapeño, fresh rosemary, lime and cranberry juice).
