Accommodations
Built in the 1960s and set within superb, mature gardens, the house is a private and tranquil retreat. A gated entrance allows for secure parking inside the property, and stone steps lead uphill to the home, which was built in a traditional West Indian design to capture cooling cross breezes. Terra cotta tile floors and handcrafted mahogany windows, made in Vermont, reflect the villa’s enduring craftsmanship.
The house is furnished with comfortable plantation and antique pieces, creating a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. A charming covered patio provides an inviting space for reading, dining, or simply enjoying the surrounding gardens. The villa sleeps up to six guests in beds, with the option to accommodate two additional guests using the pull-out sofa.
Two generous bedrooms open directly onto the covered veranda, each with a king-size bed and an en-suite bathroom, offering privacy and garden views. Air conditioning is available in these two larger bedrooms for added comfort. An additional bedroom with a queen-size bed is located in the main house, along with a third full bathroom off the living room.
The living room, with its wooden beamed ceilings, is light-filled and welcoming, while the well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals at home. The villa is conveniently located approximately ten minutes from the Best Buy supermarket.
The property is served by 300 Mbps fibre-optic internet with an advanced mesh system throughout. The private swimming pool is tucked behind thick tropical hedges, and the gardens offer many quiet corners for gathering or retreat. A housekeeper and gardener care for the property and are attentive, warm, and dedicated to making your stay as enjoyable as possible..

Location
Amaranth is at the foot of the driveway into Golden Rock Inn, an exclusive and charming boutique hotel developed from 200 year old sugar plantation buildings. Golden Rock has an international clientele and is situated at a high elevation on Nevis Peak, which rises to more than 3,000 feet. Proximity to the hotel allows guests at Amaranth to expand beyond the house and to walk easily to the hotel for lunch, dinner or drinks. The hotel has been dramatically and romantically renovated and has wonderful food.
Amaranth is approximately 25 minutes by car from Charlestown, the principal town on Nevis, where the ferry from St. Kitts docks and a similar distance from Newcastle airport. It is a 10 minute drive from the Best Buy Supermarket in Gingerland. The island's many lovely and diverse beaches and beach bars are easily visited by guests by car. There are many adventures close at hand.
