Families that like to enjoy authentic local experiences together rather than relying on children's clubs will feel right at home at Nisbet Plantation Beach Club, a boutique resort on the small Caribbean island of Nevis.  The resort has launched a new family package for this summer where families pay for one Deluxe Garden Suite and get a 2nd connecting room for free – a saving of over US$2,900.

Just St Kitts and Nevis (www.juststkittsnevis.co.uk, tel: 01373 814210) offers 7 nights at Nisbet Plantation from £2,485 per adult and £1,115 per child based on a family of 4 sharing two Deluxe Garden Suites with breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner, and including return flights with BA from London Gatwick to St Kitts and return water taxi transfers between St Kitts and Nevis.  The family package is available between 1 May and 15 August.

The resort will lay on a range of activities for families to enjoy together such as crab racing, beach cricket, sand castle making competitions and basket weaving using palm fronds.  Families will even be able to experience an evening under the stars as they roast marshmallows around a beach bonfire.

For a small additional charge families can learn how to play a steel pan or head to the local pottery to fashion their own souvenirs.

There are plenty of family friendly activities available away from the resort such as searching for green vervet monkeys while hiking through the rainforest covered slopes of a dormant volcano, snorkeling the coral reefs or exploring the island with off-road ATV tours.

Nisbet Plantation has just 36 rooms set in 30 acres and is the only historic plantation inn in the Caribbean to be set on the beach.  On the beach there is a freshwater swimming pool and hot tub, bar and restaurant.  The resort also has an 18th century Great House featuring a cocktail bar and fine dining restaurant.  Other facilities include a fitness centre, spa, tennis court and a range of water sports are also available.
