When you think of hanging out on an island in the Caribbean, sometimes its that lazy kind of vacation where you sit in lounge chairs and sip rummy drinks.
That’s one way to spend your time, but, let’s be honest, it’s kind of boring. Eighteen holes of golf is great, but what are you going to do after the 18th green?
St. Kitts Marriott Resort has put together an Escape! Attraction Package that will let you leave the real world behind in order to discover a whole new one on an island paradise.
“This is experiential travel at its best,” said General Manager Flor van der Vaart in a press release announcing the package. “The Escape! Attraction Package offers guests a once‐in‐a‐lifetime opportunity to discover the natural beauty of St. Kitts firsthand, and still enjoy the all the amenities of a luxury resort after a long day of island adventure.”
While we’d prefer for the travelers to provide their own exclamation point, this one does sound fun. The package can include:
Panoramic Hike: Climb up Mount Liamuiga in a volcano safari. Then enjoy a picnic atop the 3,792 foot peak after the three mile hike — just long enough to feel like you did something and short enough to make sure you can still go out that night. The hike will certainly give you a chance to see some of the island’s rainforest flora and fauna and if you’re lucky, the green vervet monkeys will throw their poo at you — just like the zoo.
Harness fun: If you haven’t tried a zipline yet, you’re missing out. Buckle up and clip on to a thin cable and listen to some islander tell you how safe it is — then jump. It’s incredible to fly above a rain forest, or right through it.
Brimstone Hill Fortress: We know nothing about this volcanic stone fortress so we 
studied the press release sent to us, which says the Fortress is 800 feet above sea level and lets you see the “Caribbean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Kittitian mountains, and neighboring islands of Nevis, St. Eustatius, Saba, St. Maarten and St. Barths.” How often have you had that view before?
Book a room for four nights and here are some of your options:
