This is the hidden gem of Nevis. Great playground for kids, total seclusion from the rest of the island. Trails lead to top of Nevis Peak in a few hours. Quick and friendly service. What a lunch! More

Peak haven We rode the ferry from St. Kitts to Nevis for the day and went up to Peak Haven for lunch. The view was awesome and it was very peaceful and relaxing. There was a playground for the kids and a few games that Herbert showed the kids how to play. They also offers many tours, but we didn't... More

Go here to get a REAL idea of what island living was like in the 18th century. It is also the farther place up the mountain you can drive to. Trails up into the rainforest are right there. More

most places on Nevis require a car. It is not easy to get around or find things. We got to Peak Heaven where we met the wonderful owner who walked us around, gave us a lot of history about the place and we had a lovely lunch there. Very interesting experience! More

My husband and I went to Peak Heaven last week after reading about the site in the SKN Visitor. We were awestruck at the setting and the view from the restaurant deck. Edward Herbert took us on a tour and was an excellent historian, story teller, and jack of all trades. He gave us a mini education of the natural... More

We found Peak Heaven via the web - what a lucky find! The staff at Peak Heaven is friendly and hospitable. The Peak Heaven staff arranged hotel... More

While it took us a while to find Peak Heaven, winding up the side of the mountain in our rental car, it was well worth the effort. Mr. Herbert took us on a thoroughly enjoyable walking tour through the hillside that was part history lesson, part nature walk, showing us the extensive ruins of the sugar mill as well as... More
