Each restaurant — EsQuilina, Mango, On the Dune, Kastawey Beach Bar and Crowned Monkey RUMBAR — offers a distinct atmosphere, allowing guests to savour the essence of the Caribbean in unique and memorable settings through both their regular menus as well as pop-up dinners such as Seafood Extravaganzas, Christmas and New Year’s brunches. Seasonal culinary experiences also include interactive cooking classes that dive into the secrets of jerk marinades, tropical spices, and Caribbean cocktail-making, while sunset oyster and Champagne pairings on the Resort Pier provide a romantic and unforgettable evening ritual.
Championship Recreation
In Nevis, recreation is elevated to an art form, combining the Resort’s breathtaking landscapes with world-class facilities to offer guests a dynamic and memorable holiday experience.
Golfers can challenge themselves on the renowned Robert Trent Jones II 18-hole championship course, a scenic 6,766-yard layout that sweeps from the lush slopes of Nevis Peak down to the sparkling Caribbean Sea. With its dramatic elevation changes, strategic water hazards and stunning ocean views—plus occasional visits from the island’s charming Green Vervet monkeys—this course offers a truly unique playing experience. Professional instruction is available for all skill levels through private lessons and group clinics, while the fully stocked Pro Shop welcomes players daily from early morning until late afternoon.
The Resort’s racquet sports facilities, managed by Troon Peter Burwash International, feature a variety of surfaces including red clay, hard courts and AstroTurf, catering to diverse playing styles. Guests can also enjoy four dedicated pickleball courts, reflecting the sport’s growing popularity, and a versatile multi-sport court for basketball, volleyball and other group activities. Whether competing in tournaments, taking lessons or enjoying casual play, guests of all ages and abilities find ample opportunities to stay active and engaged.
Poolside Leisure and Coastal Recreation
Three distinct infinity-edge pools provide varied atmospheres throughout the Resort, from lively social hubs to tranquil retreats for quiet reflection. Each pool features different depths, seating configurations and views, allowing guests to select their preferred environment. Luxury pool cabanas surround the swimming areas, equipped with comfortable furnishings, power outlets and Wi-Fi connectivity for guests who want to balance relaxation with connectivity.

Signature Wellness Programming
This holiday season, guests at Four Seasons Resort Nevis will have the opportunity to embark on transformative wellness journeys designed to restore balance, rejuvenate the spirit and celebrate the season with mindful intention. At the heart of the Resort’s spa offerings are bespoke three- and five-day programs that blend ancient traditions with modern healing practices, guiding guests through a holistic experience that nurtures body, mind and soul.
The three-day wellness journey begins with grounding Earth and Water elements, featuring a Himalayan salt scrub and a hydrating seasonal facial, complemented by a personalized essential oil blend to take home. Day two awakens the Fire element with choices between a hot stone massage or herbal poultice therapy, followed by guided breathwork and aromatherapy meditation to ignite inner vitality. The journey culminates on day three with a deeply relaxing floating sound bath, where crystal bowls and gongs create an immersive sonic healing experience.
For those seeking a more immersive retreat, the five-day program expands on these foundations, incorporating additional treatments such as detoxifying body wraps, restorative yoga sessions and personalized nutrition consultations. Each day builds on the previous one, creating a meaningful rhythm of renewal and relaxation.
Guests can also participate in the creative Spa Sip and Craft experience, where they craft hand-poured candles, custom bath salts and scented body scrubs under expert guidance — all while enjoying a refreshing beverage. This hands-on activity offers a unique blend of creativity, connection, and calm.
Daily wellness classes are designed to accommodate all fitness levels and interests. From Pilates sessions and aqua aerobics to floating sound healing, HIIT workouts, diverse yoga styles and beach bootcamp classes, guests have ample opportunities to maintain or explore new fitness routines.
Family Programming and Cultural Traditions
The Kids For All Seasons program welcomes children for supervised activities that blend recreation with cultural education. Programming includes guided nature walks through the Resort's tropical grounds, interactive scavenger hunts, storytelling sessions featuring Caribbean folklore and arts and crafts projects celebrating Nevisian traditions and holiday themes.
