BREIF HITORY GOES HERE....The Bath Hotel, an imposing cut stone structure, is located just south of Charlestown, Nevis’ capital, and was built around 1800. In its heyday, it was an elegant hotel that served as a playground for the wealthy planters of Nevis and the entire Caribbean, who flocked to its therapeutic hot spring waters. The Bath Hotel is among the December 2022 Historic preservation is back in focus with our recent grant from the U.S. Department of State's global Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP) programme for the urgent conservation and stabilisation of Nevis’ iconic Bath Hotel Prestigious Grant for the Conservation of Bath Hotel 2 few non-military, non-estate, and non-government structures in the Caribbean, noted for its remarkable scale, design, and setting. The hotel was constructed over the site of the island’s largest volcanic hot springs, which contain minerals of medicinal value. The thermal springs are unique in that they have been continuously used from Amerindian times to the present, and even more so in that they are a place of memory associated with the adaption and survival of enslaved Africans. The urgent conservation and eventual rehabilitation of the site will expand the use of the Bath Hotel and hot springs so that they may continue to be used and enjoyed by the community and visitors alike.

"Nevis was more than peaceful; it seemed like a paradise. The men spent six days there, washing their clothes and bathing in the mineral springs, gathering an abundance of wild fruits and berries and this incidently staving off scurvy. Fish and game were plentiful, eben tropical deer, and the whole company enjoyed venison, which in England had become food primarily of the upper classes. The water they obtained in Nevis was later discarded because of a bad taste."
