Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Alexandrina

Guests are made to feel right at home at Hotel Alexandrina, because it actually is—and has been for years—home to the owners, who offer a private, relaxing atmosphere for their visitors and where nothing is too much to ask. What had been a hillside farm back in the day now is broad lawn and gardens that surround a group of architecturally interesting, two- and three-story residential structures—bright white with orange tile roofs and a breezy balcony or porch for each room. Ruth Stevens, who was raised in the cozy cottage on this property, and her husband, Beresford, returned to their native St. Vincent in 2007 after 40 years raising their family in New York City. Choose a standard or deluxe room, one- or two-bedroom garden apartment with full kitchen, mini-suite, one- or two-bedroom penthouse suite, or the two-bedroom cottage. All units are roomy and comfortably furnished, and each is unique. Enjoy the pool, stroll the property, or simply enjoy the expansive views of the valley and, in the distance, the sea.
