**Weekly Discount Rate**- Beautiful Beachfront Condo

Property Details

When it comes to location, Oleander is hard to beat. This modern, exceptionally well furnished beachside apartment is superbly situated, being sandwiched between St Kitts’ premier golf course, (the “Royal St Kitts”) and the lovely North Frigate Bay Beach, just along from the Island’s award winning Marriott Resort.

The Caribbean beach, with its numerous bars/restaurants, known locally as “the Strip”, is just 7 minutes gentle stroll away, and there’s a large selection of popular restaurants, shops, food stores, hairdressers and a taxi rank just a few hundred yards away. So, unlike many accommodations on the hilly Island of St Kitts, the beaches, and all necessary amenities, are right on hand, making the rental of a car unnecessary. Whether you are looking for fine dining or a burger, cocktails or the local Carib beer, you will find it all within a stone’s throw.

Oleander is a privately owned modern first floor apartment on a beachfront condo development which boasts a very large communal swimming pool, a whirl pool and a tennis court. Poolside sunbeds and chairs are provided for your use. If you are looking for a really well equipped holiday home to provide a ‘home from home’ experience, then look no further.

The well maintained spacious apartment has been decorated and fitted out to a high standard and offers an open plan living and dining area and a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, including cooker, dishwasher, microwave, fridge freezer, blender, coffee maker, toaster and kettle. A flat screen TV, both DVD and CD players and a selection of DVD’s and CD’s are provided for your entertainment, together with a selection of holiday reading. Cable TV and Wi-Fi internet are also included for your convenience.

French doors lead out from both the living space and from the master bedroom, onto a spacious 32” covered terrace, which is comfortably furnished to enable you to relax and enjoy both the fabulous sea view and the cooling Atlantic breeze. Being south facing, by morning you can watch the sun rise over the Atlantic Ocean, by day it’s the perfect place to catch the sunshine, and by evening you can take in the spectacular sunsets while enjoying a cocktail or two.

You have the choice of renting Oleander either as a 1 bedroom suite (as in this listing), or with and additional 2nd double bedroom (for which please see Oleander's other property listing # 4936553). The bedroom has a king bed and benefits from ample built in closet space, hairdryer, and a flat screen TV. The spacious bathroom is fitted with a large walk in shower.

Ceiling fans and AC are fitted in all rooms, but with wonderful trade winds wafting through you will often find neither is needed. Lounge doors are all screened to allow you to enjoy the natural breeze to cool the room.

All towels and bed linens are provided and there’s a washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board for your personal use.

St Kitts has some wonderful beaches, some with bars, restaurants and beach loungers for rent, others totally deserted. So if you fancy taking yourself off to a deserted beach to play Robinson Crusoe for the day, we even provide you with beach towels, beach chairs, a cool bag, a sun umbrella and picnic essentials!

Oleander really is ‘home from home’, in the perfect location on a ‘Special Gem’ of an island; and for that reason many of our guests return each year.

Quiet

There was a nice view of the Atlantic Ocean from our balcony. You can walk down to the ocean but the water is too rough to swim at this location. The area is very quiet with lots of restaurants close by. The taxi drivers are helpful with explaining different areas of the island and where to visit. There is a beach that is walking distance but the nicer beaches require a taxi if you don’t rent a car. Being a small island, it is not difficult to get around. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Oleander Apartment St. Kitts

The Apartment was perfect. Clean & perfectly situated between the Atlantic creating a welcome breeze and the Caribbean sea just 5 minutes walk to a stunning beach with bars and restaurants. Close to local shops also. Maria was a delight, in touch before we arrived, was there to greet us and was easily contactable throughout our stay. I would recommend this place to anyone thinking of staying on St.Kitts & Nevis

Great Visit

Spent one week here and it was a great home base to visit St Kitts. The location in Frigate Bay makes it easy to walk to the strip and also to access the beaches at the southern end of the island. Maria and the team were very helpful and responsive. Will book again if we make our way back to St Kitts.

Wonderful apartment in charming St Kitts

We spent 5 nights here over New Year and managed to catch the end of carnival. The apartment has everything you would require with the most fabulous large balcony. We enjoyed breakfast on it every morning listening to the Atlantic Ocean and drinks in the evening. Plenty of amenities in walking distance. The apartment is very spacious with good AC in the bedroom.

We enjoyed our stay at the oleander. It was a good location accurate depiction as advertised

The accommodations were very good and the kitchen well-stocked. A very good view of the ocean side, and a good sea breeze in the evenings. Only a short walk to frigate bay and the Caribbean side in the area. They call the strip. This was our 33rd anniversary and we originally honeymoon in Saint Kitts. It was special for us. We thoroughly enjoyed the Belmont Estates coconut Rum A bottle which was a well enjoyed complementary item.

Oleander in St Kitts!

This property is exactly as Maria describes. The location is phenominal with walking access to restaurants and bars. We loved the beaches on the east side of the island (10 minutes by car) and easy access to the larger city and mountains/ rain forests to the west. The people on St Kitts are extremely friendly and the snorkeling and hiking are wonderful. Maria and Dianne are available at any time to help. Thank you and we will likely be back soon!

Great Place to Stay in Frigate Bay

We really enjoyed our month long stay at Oleander. It is centrally located and was an easy walk to the Caribbean beach - " Frigate Bay Strip", grocery stores and restaurants. We did not have a rental car. We used local taxis to and from Basseterre. The huge balcony was a highlight- great for morning coffee and late afternoon drinks. The whole unit was well- equipped - Dianne has thought of everything. We also really enjoyed the pool which we had to ourselves on most days.Maria the Property Manager and Dianne the owner were very welcoming and wonderful hosts.We would highly recommend this property for your St Kitts' holiday!

Just As Described!

This was a great place for us as our base camp. We arrived early and they even made sure we could get in earlier than scheduled. Great hosts! We rented a car to explore the island but you certainly could walk to the beach bar strip on the Caribbean side as well as walk to the grocery store, great restaurants, and casino if you choose to not rent a vehicle. The only bummer (certainly not the host’s fault!) was the sargassum seaweed blob that is rolling thorough the Caribbean right now has trashed the Atlantic side up and down the whole island (as well as many other islands) but again, it’s very easy to walk to the Caribbean side and the seaweed exposure was much less on the leeward side. My wife and I look forward to returning again soon and I would absolutely stay here again!

beautiful condo with beach view

We had a great time. The hostesses and owners took great care of us but also gave us plenty of privacy and space. The views of the hillside jungle from inside the condo and the blue pacific ocean from the spacious pateo is incredible. Its a good thing that they arrange for a hostess to meet you at the airport since we had an issue with our car rental. They made sure we made it to the condo and then the next morning the condo owner herself called the car rental company and had them come and pick us up to go get our rental car in town. We see why they have return guests at this charming, quiet spot.

Great location for your St. Kitts vacation

The listing was very accurate and true. The location is great for providing you with the privacy of being away from the resort crowds but close enough to walk to them if you wish. The property is a few steps from the Atlantic Ocean and a few minutes from the Caribbean and its beaches, bars and restaurants. Dianne & Avenice do a wonderful job from start to finish. Our stay was great! We relaxed, we adventured, we drank, we ate well and we made many friends while leaving our footprints on many beaches. A great vacation!

The Most Relaxing Vacation EVER!

The property is literally walking distance from everything. You can walk to the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Ocean, restaurants, stores, bars, and a taxi stand. Being so close to the ocean, the property always has a breeze flowing through. Only used the air conditioning once. The best part probably is the balcony. But be warned, don’t sit on the balcony unless you are prepared to take a nap. With the breeze and roar of the waves from the Atlantic Ocean crashing on the shore, a unplanned nap will occur. If you just need to relax, this is the right island and the right apartment.

Awesomeness

Very well kept apartment. Access to everything you may need to have a good vacation was at hand from lawn chairs to pots and sheets. Only sugestión is to get a grill. Meeting with the estate manager was easy. Answered everytime I called. This place is very good for a couple or small family. The area was convinietly located close to all the beaches and hotels and stores with duty free good sold at the same price as in the United States. A good place to vacation.

Enjoyed our visit

The complex has some age but the location is very good. The unit itself is small but fine for two. It has a large balcony with plenty of table space and chairs and its where we spent most of our time. There is a partial ocean view but also a view of the nearby hills. The kitchen is well stocked with plates, cups, pans and silverware. Could use a few more glasses but sufficient for two. Good selection of spices available. Small but adequate fridge. Comfortable couches. The tv in the living area had some sound issues. I should have reported it but since we don’t watch much tv I didn’t worry too much about it. Washer and dryer worked well. Chairs and soft sided coolers available to use at beach. Plenty of soft towels. King size bed with adequate mattress. There is not a lot of storage room. There is a large chest of drawers but it had musty smell. No assigned parking but we had no trouble finding space. Avenice the manager is great to work with. Had a bottle of coconut rum as a welcoming gift.

Nice

The property was very nice and the location couldn't have been better. We did rent a car, so we were able to tour the island and go to other beaches. We would go to a beach on the Caribbean side in the morning and over to the Atlantic in the afternoon. As it is only steps away from the rental, we were able to take chairs and coolers from the rental and in about 2 minutes we were set up on the beach which we had to ourselves the majority of the time. There are plenty of choices for dining on both sides, so we were never at a loss for somewhere to go. Thanks to Laverne and Avenice for all of their help and guidance, it made our stay that much nicer.

Perfect Location

As another reviewer stated, it was a bit scary to wire transfer a large sum of money to an overseas bank, but everything worked out more perfectly than I could have imagined. Both the owner of the condo, Dianne, and the property manager, Avenice, were great to work with. Avenice's assistant, Clarissa, meet us at the airport. Clarissa held a sign with out last name, so she was easy to find. She put us in a cab and then immediately met us at the condo to let us in. Avenice met with us first thing Monday morning (we arrived on Saturday afternoon) to give us a thorough orientation, answer questions about the condo and the island, and to recommend tours and drivers. She answered all of our questions and got us the extra set of keys we requested. Upon checkout after verifying that everything was still in working order, she returned our security deposit in cash. The whole process was very simple. The condo itself felt a bit cramped because there is A LOT of furniture in the living area. We moved some of it around for our week's stay to make things more comfortable and then the place was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning in the bedrooms was a godsend. The living area also had air conditioning, but we didn't use it. We spent most of our time on the huge balcony which had an amazing breeze constantly blowing off of the Atlantic. We also used the pool daily. Since it is the off season, we had the pool to ourselves most days. The Atlantic Beach is very close to the condo; it is down a short path right on the grounds of the condo complex. Be aware though that the beach may be unusable. While we were there, the beach was covered in seaweed. There were (and I am not exaggerating here), six feet deep piles of it extending across the entire beach, while more continued to wash in from the ocean. This is obviously nobody's fault, and an unusual occurrence. Apparently, it's a problem that is plaguing much of the Caribbean right now. Please don't come to this condo (at least anytime soon), and expect to take a long walk down the Atlantic coastline because it is truly unpassable. Yet, the view was lovely, and as stated before, the breeze was unparalleled. The condo is also nicely situated. In one direction are some restaurants, a golf course, a coffee shop, a pizza place, a cab stand, and RAMS (a minimart). In the other direction is "the strip" and South Frigate Bay Beach on the Caribbean. This is a fun place to eat and get drinks.

Lovely Place to Stay in St. Kitts

My husband & I just returned from a lovely 11 night stay at Oleander, & enjoyed every minute. The condo was bright, comfortable, well equipped & extremely well maintained. The wonderful breeze that blew constantly on our side of the island kept the condo very comfortable, & we only used the air con in the bedroom to sleep at night. We didn't cook in on this trip (other than basic breakfast), but the kitchen is well equipped for food preparation. We loved the deck running the length of the condo. It was always breezy with a variety of very comfortable furniture, & we loved sitting out there for breakfast in the morning, & enjoying our evening coffee there with the sound of the waves. The pool was clean, & very quiet - we often had it to ourselves, although the neighbours we met while there were lovely & very friendly. We thought Oleander was very well situated on the island, being within walking distance of a number of slightly more upscale restaurants in one direction, & The Strip on the Caribbean side for more casual dining (literally only about a 7 or 8 minute walk away). Some of our personal favourites were Rituals Sushi, Rituals Coffee for late night coffee as well as an excellent breakfast, Ciao for very good Italian fare, & Bombay Blues for excellent Indian food, & Serendipity in Basseterre. On the Strip, we enjoyed sunset drinks at The Dock, Chinchillas, Cathy's for good ribs & the Shiggidy Shack for an excellent breakfast (served only on weekends). The condo is located about a 10-15 minute drive from the airport, & Basseterre, so although we had a car for a week of our stay to explore the island, it is not an overly far cab ride into town. I should also say how much we enjoyed the small touches such as the soap, shampoo & conditioner dispenser in the shower, as well as an ample supply of toilet paper. We have had rentals in the past where this was not the case. And lastly, a huge thank you to Dianne, Dave & Avenice for making the booking process seamless & pleasant, answering all e-mails promptly. Avenice met us at the airport & was kind enough to drive us to Oleander on arrival night, & Dianne was kind enough to pick up a few basic groceries for us so that we didn't have to rush to the grocery store on our first morning. It was lovely to have Dianne & Dave in residence while we were there. They were so welcoming to us & helpful with suggestions on where to go & things to do. We would definitely recommend Oleander for your visit to St. Kitts.

Wonderful Condo

We stayed a week at this location in Aug 2014, and thoroughly enjoyed it. The condo is small, but very well appointed and cozy. The complex has a nice pool and it is located in a great location. You can walk 5 minutes to the coffee shop, several restaurants, or a small market with everything you could need. You are also located near both the Atlantic and Caribbean sides and can walk either direction. The condo is walking distance to the Marriott resort, which has nice restaurants, golf, casino, spa and a great pool and beach area. By far the best part of this rental is the porch. Sitting there with a drink and the breeze listening to the waves was by far the highlight of the trip. Highly recommended.
