Oualie Beach Resort is a unique Caribbean experience. Owned by the Yearwood family of Nevis, whose ancestors came to the Caribbean from the UK in 1650. The hotel is right on the beach and guest rooms are scattered along the beach in 1 and 2-story gingerbread cottages with traditional Caribbean style architecture just 50 feet from the beach. All rooms face the beach and have breathtaking views of the sunset and the neighboring island of St. Kitts, which is just 2 miles across the water. Oualie bay is a calm, shallow, sheltered cove where you can see the legendary Green Flash, a common sight as the last edge of the sun dips beneath the horizon, and the calm waters are great for swimming.
