The gardens are not very big, but they are beautiful. I do think it's slightly over priced for the size, but I still think it's worth a stop. They don't have a credit card machine at the entrance, so if you want to pay by credit card you have to go to the restaurant to pay. A minor inconvenience.

This destination was the main reason my wife and I took the trip to Nevis from where we were vacationing in St Kitts. We are both keen gardeners and were expecting something really special. Unfortunately we were a little disappointed. There was not really that much to see. The grounds were very dry and little was in flower (this was... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stop here while on our island tour. It is very calm and soothing. The grounds were in the midst of some work, and some areas needed it a bit more than others, but overall it is a very nice place with a wide diversity of plants and orchids. A gardener stopped what he was doing to... More

Was very pleasantly surprised both by the beauty of this place and how huge it was! This is well maintained by just a small staff. There is an entrance fee. Since it was not crowded, we had the wonderful experience of being personally led around the gardens by a staff member who explained all the different types of plants to... More

Almost impossible to find without local knowledge. Lovely water garden and water falls. Sculptures from the Far East dotted around the gardens. Quite small, but well worth a visit.

Because the water features were off the pools of water were stagnant which didn't help the image of a well tended garden and because you pay for the entry they could have done more for the visitor.
