The Golden rock Inn is a very special place. Up in the cooler rainforest on the side of Nevis Peak, it is a paradise of greenery and tranquility. The grounds are spectacular, the staff is friendly and welcoming, and extremely gracious, it feels like a private hideaway on a hillside with an absolutely, amazing restaurant to boot! We came for several quiet days after a stay at the Four Seasons, and it was the perfect counterpoint to a beautiful stay on Nevis. Highly recommend!

Truly unique and beautiful place. It used to be a sugar plantation and still has the stonework, historical feel. The gardens are beautiful. The service was not great. I must say, Sara is awful. Luckily I was able to work with the general manager to book activities, such as the garden tour, and he was fantastic. There is not much to do either on the island generally or in the hotel itself, so I recommend no more than a 3 night stay. To the hotel, I recommend maybe implementing more activities that can be done on-property, and a better way to convey those to the guests (Sarah should not be working in a customer facing role).

Our stay at the Golden Rock Inn was incredible. Words cannot describe how beautiful the property is. The restaurant, fish ponds, and courtyard are breathtaking. I couldn't help but take photos every time we walked through. The orchestra of birds during the day and crickets at night was mesmerizing. The garden tour is a must- our tour guide was amazing. From sharing ylang ylang and bay leaves with us to warning us of plants that can cause blindness, his wealth of information about not only the plants but the property and its history was incredible. The food was 5 star. Ivo, the general manager was so accommodating and pleasant. We had to leave a few days early because of a hurricane threat and he guided us through the process with genuine care and thoughtfulness. Our villa was simple and beautiful and the Le Labo toiletries were such an added bonus. No AC but overhead and ceiling fans did the trick. Front staff was super helpful and arranged taxis for us every day. The also arranged transportation to and from the airport in St. Kitts. Overall it was an amazing experience.

Golden Rock is an absolute gem! We were blown away by the magnificent gardens and the amazing food. The staff is so friendly and willing to meet any need. Ivo, the manager went above and beyond to help us retrieve some items we left behind at another resort while we relaxed at the pool. We had a very comfortable room with a nice patio on which we could sit and take in all the sights and sounds of nature. We even saw monkeys. The uniqueness, service and tranquility of Golden Rock will bring us back. we loved it.

This is a very unique property nestled amongst luscious gardens. An wonderful escape and relax. The restaurant was excellent, the staff was friendly and very accommodating. Little things like drop your laundry in the hamper and it’s back folded on you bed that evening! Comfy rooms, no AC but high enough up that it was cool each night.

Amazing tranquil gardens. Its as if you're in a Rosseau painting. The food and service is amazing. The rooms are basic and simple. The beach with lounge chairs and umbrellas are a $20.00 15 min taxi ride away. The hotel is at the foot of an ancient volcano.

Platinum Review of the Golden Rock Hotel
The Golden Rock hotel is a gem off the beaten path and well worth the experience. Ambience was exquisite with garden and interior design to the nines. Our girls loved the secret nooks and crannies among the plants. Delicious food and lovely staff.

I stayed at the Golden Rock Inn for 2 days and fell in love with the Inn. The property itself is lovely and the views are breathtaking. The rooms are well appointed and have nice touches like espresso coffee (french press) in the rooms. There is an extensive garden and a small using fed pool. Staff were uniformly friendly and helpful. This is a quiet place to get away from everyday life. I plan to return.

Estate with an incredible history
We stayed in their sugar mill suite and it was amazing! Parts of the estate were built in the early 1800s, but everything has been beautifully updated to showcase the style and architecture from the original plantation. The staff was very helpful in arranging transportation, providing a tour of the estate, and assisting when needed. We ate at the restaurant which was quite good. Overall the service was fantastic and the old buildings are incredible.

Vacation in the Rain Forest,
We enjoyed our stay, as the atmosphere was very relaxing, in the midst of Forest like surroundings, with monkeys hopping over the trees, lizards walking in front of us. Trees and bushes immediately surrounding us with no space empty other than the tiny walkway.It rained every night.Place was very close to the beach.
