We booked this trip through BA - fantastic service. Accommodation upgraded on arrival to de luxe bungalow. Staff were friendly, restaurant with award winning chef was fantastic. Food fantastic. Arranged for personal driver and car to take us out as and when we wanted to tour the island. Plantation totally unspoilt unlike others who have regimented palm trees in lines - Rawlins was as it should be with trees and plants dotted about. Very colourful and extremely relaxing. Nothing was too much trouble for Kevin the owner and his staff.

i wanted to treat my girlfriend for a romantic, peaceful break but Kevin, the owner just wouldn't leave us alone. Yes the place is beautiful and the staff were more than adequate but the place became populated by Kevin's presence. This made us feel uncomfortable and the weekend became a less relaxing experience.

I dont advice to stay there more than a weekend.

When we had a stopover in St. Kitts, we were told that we must, without fail, visit Brimstone Fortress and Rawlins Plantation.
The fortress is in beautiful condition and not to be missed - but Rawlins is something else again.
On the verandah at sunset sitting with a long cool local drink chatting with Kevin, the owner, and his delightful staff was a sublime experience that we will never forget - we thought we had died and gone to heaven!
The dinner was wonderful - the plantation house, it's grounds and fascinating bedrooms were all absolutely stunning. We were back the next day for lunch (well worth another trip from our pre-booked indifferent hotel at the busy end of the island) and the dream continued!
Don't go to St. Kitts without a visit to Rawlins or, even better, stay in one of their gorgeous rooms - we certainly will next time.

We did not stay overnight at Rawlins but spent several hours there including an incredible lunch buffet. Kevin is the perfect host, the grounds and location of the plantation are excellent. We will likely stay there on our next visit. The lunch we had was one of the highlights of the trip. If on St. Kitts you must visit Rawlins.
