Ocean Waves Guest House
Middle Island St. Kitts
Nestled between the rolling hills of Mount Liamuiga to the North and the cool breeze of the Caribbean Sea in the South, Ocean Waves Guest House offers a tranquil Oasis to the adventurous traveler in the midst of historic Middle Island. As you meander West on St. Kitts main road breathing in the fresh air and taking in the beautiful vistas, you will come upon Ocean Waves Guest House, on the left, in a mere twenty minutes from the capitol Basseterre. Just enough time to let your stress float away.
Ocean Waves Guest House, is the heart of owner Euriel Herbert, affectionately known as “Herbie”, who has created a comfortable home away from home for visitors to St. Kitts. The front façade, discrete and un-assuming, offers guests private quarters to rest and revive their tired spirits after a long journey. The rooms are inviting, cozy and secure. There are a number of areas on the premises that cater to all of your needs. You can relax on the “Oasis Patio” while over-looking the great expanse of the Caribbean Sea, you can enjoy drinks at “Herbie’s Bar”, watch TV, play a match of domino’s or you can lounge on the roof-top “Vista Patio”, which offers a spectacular panoramic view of the mountains.
To enjoy the full cultural experience, you don’t have to travel far. Middle Island’s immediate surroundings offer a number of wonderful opportunities. Twenty feet east of Ocean Waves Guest House you will find “Middle Island Anglican Church”, the first Anglican Church in the Eastern Caribbean, which is now the burial site of both Sir Thomas Warner the first English Governor of the West Indies in 1814 and Samuel Jefferson II, ancestor of Thomas Jefferson the third President of the United States of America. Explore nearby historic sites a short bus ride away in either direction; to the west visit “Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park” named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
To the east “Caribelle Batik” situated on Romney Manor is a place where you can watch a demonstration of Batik Printing and purchase garments dyed right on the premises. Once owned by Samuel Jefferson II, it’s the site of where the Carib Indian Chief Tegreman’s Village was situated. You will see their ancient rock carvings known as “Petroglyphs” and you can also see a three-hundred and fifty year old Saman tree whose diameter spans twenty-four feet. Experienced tour guides can take you on a hike up Mount Liamuiga into the rainforest to see the volcano.
If you want to take a more low-key approach you can visit the fishing village of Old Road, five minutes away from Middle Island and see what ‘Catch of the Day’ the Fisheries have for sale. Or, if you just want to enjoy a delicious meal you can visit family owned and operated restaurant “Sprat Net” in Old Road known for their famous lobster, fish or ribs in a relaxed environment by the Sea.
