The Park Hyatt St. Kitts Christophe Harbour opened its doors earlier this month. The 126-guestroom luxury resort is situated on Banana Bay, with views of the ocean and Nevis. It is the first Park Hyatt property in the Caribbean, as well as the location of the Caribbean’s first Miraval Life in Balance Spa.

“We are excited to debut the Park Hyatt brand experience on this incredible island that is brimming with rich culture, storied history, untapped adventure and pristine beaches,” said Myles McGourty, senior vice president, Latin America and Caribbean, Hyatt. “We are delighted to be working with Range Developments, the developer of the project and one of the leading development companies in the Caribbean. Our discerning global guests will be welcomed with personalized service and contemporary elegance surrounded by sophisticated design, world-class artwork, the finest culinary expressions and Miraval’s deep-rooted expertise in wellness.”

Accommodations include 78 guestrooms and 48 suites, three signature restaurants, indoor and outdoor event spaces and two pools. Guestrooms include island-inspired decor and local materials, as well as a mix of modern and colonial accents. The Presidential Villa is the most extravagant accommodation choice by far, offering three bedrooms, a private infinity pool, wellness area, personal butler and private chef.

Dining includes the Fisherman’s Village, with ocean-to-table dining on the water; The Stone Barn, an adults-only restaurant; and The Great House, with all-day dining, a rum bar and chef’s table.

The Miraval Life in Balance Spa is a 37,752-square-foot wellness center, with nine treatment rooms, heated private plunge pools and outdoor showers. There is also a 24-hour fitness center with yoga and meditation programming.

“We are excited by the opening of the Miraval Life in Balance Spa at Park Hyatt St. Kitts Christophe Harbour, the first Miraval Life in Balance Spa to open within the Hyatt portfolio since Miraval joined Hyatt. Wellness and mindfulness are becoming increasingly important to our guests, and the opening of the Miraval Life in Balance Spa in St. Kitts is yet another way we demonstrate care for our guests,” said Marc Ellin, global head, Miraval Group. “This spa integrates the essence of Miraval — an industry leader in the destination spa wellness resort category — into a breathtaking West Indian setting for an unforgettable luxury experience.”
