Description

Valley View Vista Retreat — Milliken Estate, St. Kitts

Some places have a view. This one has a story.

Your home for this stay sits on Milliken Estate — a 300-year-old former sugar plantation on the slopes of Monkey Hill, named for the green monkeys that have roamed these hillsides for centuries. The same monkeys your guests on cruise ships pay to come and see. The same trail those cruise excursions follow to reach Sofa Stone. This is one of St. Kitts' most beloved attractions begins right here, on this land.

You won't be visiting this place. You'll be living in it.

The Apartment
At 1,500 sq. ft., this is one of the most spacious one-bedroom retreats on the island. Expansive living and dining areas, a large fully equipped kitchen, and a private balcony with open valley views give you the kind of room to breathe that most Caribbean rentals simply don't offer. This is a home you settle into...not a room you pass through.

The Estate
Step outside and the history is alive around you. Wild green monkeys make their morning foraging run through the hillside. Birds you won't hear anywhere else fill the air. Fresh mangoes, wax apples, coconuts and bananas grow on the property — help yourself.

We have an assortment of teas as well, except, these are growing just outside of your door.

The neighbourhood is completely traffic-free, quiet in a way that feels increasingly rare.

A short walk from your door, the trail to Sofa Stone rewards anyone with reasonable fitness will experience panoramic views of Basseterre, the sea, and the neighbouring islands stretching out 1,200 feet below. It's a morning well spent.

Come in January to March
If your visit falls between January and March, you're arriving at one of the most spectacular time of year. The Pink Cedar trees come into full bloom across the entire hillside, covering the estate and the valley below in a sweep of soft pink blossoms. It is genuinely one of the most beautiful natural spectacles on the island, and most tourists never see it.

The Island is Yours
Basseterre is 12 minutes away — close enough for everything, far enough to feel removed from it. A rental car opens the whole island to you: local shops, fresh fish on the roadside, hidden beaches, historic sites and roads that wind through landscapes unchanged for generations. This is St. Kitts as it actually is, not as it's packaged.

Fast WiFi · Full kitchen · Queen bed · Free parking · Valley views · Fresh fruit on the property (once in season)

Basseterre city centre: 12 minutes. Taxi one way: $16 USD. Car rental recommended for island exploration.

Dear Clyde We wanted to say what a great time we have had here at Ogees on The Milliken Estate Everything was just fine and our apartment great and we loved it. There was so much space and we really felt at home...We have managed to tour most of the Island, Went on the St Kits Railway again (but did a Deal with them this time), We used to go to the Reggae Beach bar or Shipwreck Bar or cockleshell beach(our three Favourites. We did also go to Indian summer restaurant twice. We first found this place on Nevis the sister island the last time we was here.. The little car we had was ok but really for the road to you a much more stable car would have been better as it did struggle. So next time we will have to think about this. Thanks for meeting us at Hertz The car hire people, when we arrived. We would never had found you on our own, also your suggestion of downloading off line google map was great and helped us so much. We are off to As of writing we are now over in Antigua. Again Thanks so much for our lovely stay God willing We are really hoping to come back next yearWe send our Our Love to you and your family.Keith and Mary xxx PS please say hello to your neighbour from us x

Perfect place for a couple who enjoys quiet and nature. Clean and had everything we needed as our hub for exploring the island. Owners were wonderful!

The layout of this space is even more beautiful and spacious than portrayed in the images. I felt immediately at home. The owners have thoughtfully provided everything a guest would need for a brief visit or a longer stay. I also enjoyed many moments just taking in the deep green of the surrounding vegetation from my little porch. The owners were beyond responsive and gracious. I’ll be back!

I highly recommend this place. I was very nervous at first being that this was my first time booking. My husband and I was very pleased. The view from back to front of this property was amazing. Everything in this property is up dated. The owner Clyde was very hospitable. Matter of fact when I arrived to St. Kitts he picked my husband and I up from the airport and took us to rent a vehicle the next day. Anyone that decides to visit St. Kitts, this is definitely the place to stay.

My teenage daughter and I stayed at Valley View over the St. Kitts Music Festival weekend in June. Clyde, the owner, was incredibly accommodating and ensured that we had everything we needed, including arranging a wonderful taxi driver who remained on call throughout our stay. The apartment is very clean, modern and comfortable and has all amenities your little heart could desire. The location of the apartment is a tad remote, while still surprisingly close to Basseterre, but offers the most stunning and serene setting to enjoy a true getaway. Highly recommended.
