Set within the Christophe Harbor development on Banana Bay in the most natural and untouched region of this beautiful island, Park Hyatt St. Kitts, a luxury resort, introduces the unparalleled Park Hyatt experience for discerning leisure travelers and incentive groups to this idyllic dream destination in the West Indies. The resort spans the entire width of Banana Bay, one of the island's most beautiful golden sand beaches. The former Plantations are the inspiration behind the design of the Hotel and this is reflected throughout the Resort. The accommodations are chic in design, spacious with some suites featuring individual roof top swimming pools with spectacular views of the neighboring island, Nevis.

If you are considering staying here, it’s important to go in with realistic expectations — because the experience does not match the price point. Let’s start with the most misleading aspect. An “Ocean View” room should, at the very least, offer a clear view of the ocean. The ground-floor rooms simply do not. At best, you get a partial glimpse through landscaping, which feels disingenuous given the premium being charged. This needs to be made explicitly clear at the point of booking — otherwise it borders on mis-selling. Service is the biggest disappointment. There are a few standout individuals, but they are the exception rather than the rule. The general tone from staff is indifferent at best and, at times, outright rude. There is little sense of hospitality; instead, you feel as though you are inconveniencing them. Requests are met with reluctance, and the overall culture seems more about guests fitting into the hotel’s way of operating, rather than the other way around — which is not what you expect at this level. Dining is equally underwhelming. Restaurants closing at 21:30 feels unnecessarily restrictive and out of step with a resort environment. On top of that, there is a persistent sense of being nickel-and-dimed, with additional charges appearing frequently. Basic quality control is also lacking — we were served a bottle of wine that was clearly heat-damaged and past its best, suggesting there is little to no proper cellar management or sommelier oversight. Breakfast is particularly poor. It is disorganised, overcrowded, and under-resourced. With only nine outdoor tables, long waits are inevitable, and even simple items like fresh juice regularly run out before 09:00. It sets a frustrating tone for the day and feels far removed from what should be a relaxed, high-end experience. To be fair, the estate itself is well maintained. The grounds are clean, tidy, and visually appealing, and the jetty is a strong feature — in theory. In practice, even this fell short. We were assured that a return boat would bring us directly back, only to be dropped at Reggae Beach instead and left to arrange a taxi. It’s another example of poor coordination and communication. Overall, this is a property with potential, but it is being let down by weak management, poor service culture, and a lack of attention to detail. At this price level, you expect consistency, professionalism, and a genuine sense of hospitality — none of which are reliably delivered here.

I am not sure if it was just the time of year, but this property was so quiet and felt like such a retreat. There was never a need to reserve chairs by the pool or wait for a restaurant. At some points, it felt like the staff outnumbered the guests. The adults only pool is beautiful and looks over the rest of the property. The staff were incredible and it was evident that training and standardization across the organization is valued. While food is pricey, we did not have a bad meal at the hotel. Would recommend taking a walk down to the reggae beach bar for a fresh lobster as its only a 10 -15 minute walk off property. The rooms are beautiful. Beds are very comfortable and loved being able to walk out a sliding door to our giant porch which looked at the pool. This property is incredible and we definitely felt refreshed after 4 nights. This property lives us to the park hyatt standard.

In general, this was a Park Hyatt that felt like a Grand Hyatt. Nothing terrible-- it just wasn't the right level of luxury for the brand or price. Room was dated and lacked basic amenities like a robe or slippers, or an umbrella for all of the rainy days. Park Hyatts usually do better in the rooms with things like a pillow menu or at least including bath salts for the tubs-- but nothing like that here. Decor was too coastal and not modern like the park hyatts around the world- could really use a renovation. Service was great by some including the bar and pool staff, but others (especially ladies at breakfast) were very dismissive and looked annoyed to be working there or talking to the guests. The VAT + service charge at the spa makes things 30-40% more expensive and those massages all ended with less time than promised. And the service charge doesn't even go to the masseuse, so you have to pay 300+ for a 200 massage for 50 minutes that was actually 45 minutes. Recommend to remove the group service charge on a service where the full tip is expected for a masseuse, and do not short-change the massage if the masseuse arrives late. In general, the experience needs to be elevated if they want to charge bigger park hyatt prices. Or just downgrade the branding to Grand Hyatt and we would arrive with lower expectations.

The location was absolutely stunning!! The rooms were updated and gorgeous, the spa was amazing. However, the staff don't seem to be paid enough because they were not very happy to be there. Maybe a change in upper management or something? The food was sub par at best. The drinks were what you'd expect from Sandals. For the food and drink quality alone, I wouldn't go back. The island was beautiful and so was the location of the hotel.
