The island of Nevis

Nevis—Wyndham Hotel Group is expanding its Caribbean footprint by bringing the first Wyndham Grand Resort to the island of Nevis. Situated within the Northern Pointe Resort, the new 30-acre development is being built along Long Haul Bay in the Parish of St. James. Located 1,200 miles from Miami, the 36-square-mile Nevis is the smaller of two islands which make up the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis.

The resort will feature 170 suites, condominiums and villas ranging from 900 to 5,100 square feet, a private beach club, five dining areas, infinity pools, more than 10,000 square feet of meeting space and a spa.

“Nevis is known around the world as one of the most desirable yet exclusive vacation spots in the Caribbean and as more travelers discover this tranquil paradise, the demand for more upscale accommodations will grow,” said Paulo Pena, president & managing director, Latin America and the Caribbean for Wyndham Hotel Group, in prepared remarks. “Wyndham Grand’s distinct experiences and understated approach to luxury will bring a unique accessibility to this elite island. Adding Nevis to an impressive growing list of amazing global destinations … expands our managed hotel portfolio here in the region and further solidifies our commitment to providing unparalleled guest experiences to all travelers.”

The property is owned by Northern Pointe Development LTD and will be managed by Wyndham Hotel Group. The resort is set for completion by 2019.
