The Golden lemon was the most disappointing 'hotel' I have ever had the misfortune to stay at. It is a collection of rundown cottages ('villas') on a dirty beach with a nice tropical garden and pool and a lovely rundown greathouse. Our beachfront 'villa' was surrounded by a high wall which i discovered later was for security and to avoid... More

We revisited The Golden Lemon Christmas 2005. The first time was on our honeymoon in 1993. The reason we are writing our review one year later is because we were thinking of a long weekend somewhere and the place that keeps comming to mind is The Golden Lemon. Our first visit was wonderful but our second visit was so much... More

Thomas and I visited Arthur and Martin in January 2006. It was a great spot. We met some wonderful interesting people. The service was top and everyone went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Delicious food! We enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the wind and waves just outside our room. We recommend a rental as... More

My husband and I just returned from a week’s stay at The Golden Lemon. We’ve been there in the past but found the place has kept its high standards. We had an absolutely wonderful time and felt very safe. The management and staff went out of their way to do anything for us. For value, we took the all inclusive... More

We stayed at the Golden Lemon for a few days for our Honeymoon. We would not reccomend it though. In the first week we stayed at The Montpelier on Nevis and that was the most amazing place that we had ever been. The Golden Lemon didn't compare. We had read the bad reviews before we went and also some good... More

In low season you can be upgraded to a villa, which has a double height reception room with one set of doors opening onto a terrace, the other straight into a small swimming pool. From the balcony of the upstairs bedroom the view in the best villas is through the palms trees to the perfect volcanic cone of St Eustasius,... More

The Golden Lemon has taken the phrase " Winter Blues" out of my vocabulary! Looking forward to going there shortens the period before my departure; and looking back to the two weeks I spent there every year puts a smile on my face until the Springtime. i have gone there every year for a long time with a group of...

Before I left for St. Kitt's, someone I met at a dinner party said, "The Golden Lemon is the best place I ever stayed". Well, it's the best place I ever stayed, too. My room opening on to the verandah was sublimely comfortable, the bathroom had loads of thick towels, the staff was eager to please, food and drink plentiful... More

It is telling when the owner -- who admitted he is trying to sell the place -- has his retirement home on the neighboring island of Nevis. We popped over to Nevis for the day at one point, and it's absolutely gorgeous. St. Kitts, however... To start with, security is a real problem at the Golden Lemon Inn. They have... More

The Golden Lemon was the perfect island retreat for our honeymoon. We would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a place to get away from all the stress of everyday life and relax. We wanted to get away to a peaceful place to relax after the wedding and this was exactly what we were looking for. Our villa... More
