Rental properties in St. Kitts and Nevis come fully equipped for your stay

Even The Kitchen Sink

For travelers who wish to stay a bit longer in St. Kitts and Nevis, there is always the option of renting a house, condo, or villa. Rental properties are also very popular for large groups or families traveling together.

Rental properties are available all over the islands, especially around South Friar's Bay and Frigate Bay and close to St. Kitts, capital, Basseterre. There has also been� much development of the area around Calypso Bay Resorts in Frigate Bay. Many investors have jumped at the opportunity to have properties in this area and are now renting out these properties to visitors.

Most properties come fully equipped and offer conveniences such as a full kitchen, which can help vacationers negate some of their dining expenses. Other amenities will vary from place to place but may include a computer or study area for business travelers. A few properties are not only beachfront, but feature pools and hot tubs, as well.

Rental properties typically require a stay of at least one week, however for an extra fee some may be rented for a shorter period of time, depending upon availability. Travelers should note that pets are usually not welcome, and some do not allow children. Naturally, these rules depend on the management of each property, so be sure to address your specific concerns with the realtor before you book a property.

On average, rental properties can sleep anywhere from two to eight people, and price, of course, depends of the size of the property. Prices may range from $800(USD) to over $2,000(USD) for a week's stay.

For vacationers who are traveling in large groups or are planning to stay for an extended time, renting a property is something to be considered. Travelers can often save money by being able to cook their own meals while also being able to enjoy each other's company in private property amid the tropical scenery of St. Kitts and Nevis.
