My St. Kitts Vacation



















These pictures are from St. Kitts last Easter. This is my favorite island. Very low key with empty beaches and good food. The St. Kittians were extremely friendly and helpful. We felt completely safe there at all times and rented a car to explore the island on our own. The Marriott Resort was beautiful and had the largest casino in the Carribean right off the lobby.

TIP: I used Marriott Points for the hotel and 4 airline tickets. When using Marriott awards, always take the award with the highest number of airline miles since the miles are one for one with Marriott points. The award for 7 nights with 50K airline miles is 230,000 Marriott points and the award with 120K airline miles is 300,000 Marriottt points. You can always use the airline miles later.

Never use Marriott points for airline miles only. To get 50K airline miles, you have to use 125,000 Marriott points.

NEW AWARD:Marriott now has an all inclusive award for 2 people for 90,000 additional points that is good at St. Kitts and 7 other Marriott Resorts. Children up to 12 years of age are included at no additional cost. Included are Taxes and service charges, breakfast, lunch and dinner at resort restaurants, premium brand liquor, local beer, house wine by the glass and non-alcoholic beverages, complimentary use of health club and tennis courts, non-motorized hotel sponsored water sports, kids' Club activities, discounts for golf, massages and merchandise. See the Marriott web site for additional information.
