Nevis Peak Residences breaks ground

In April 2025, Nevis Peak Residences, the newest residential enclave at Four Seasons Resort Nevis, held its groundbreaking. The Premier of Nevis, Mark Brantley, who is also Minister of Tourism and Foreign Investment, helped turn the sod.

The ceremony

The Nevis Island Administration published its account on April 16, 2025 and dates the ceremony April 9. The developer's own account, posted April 30, 2025, gives Tuesday, April 8; both place it in the same week.

According to the developer's account, Neil Paine, CEO of St. Kitts and Nevis Sotheby's International Realty, welcomed guests and declared the groundbreaking complete. Remarks followed from the Premier, from developers David Chekemian and Richard Maltz of The Integrum Group, and from then General Manager Billy Cueto. Archdeacon Phillip gave the opening prayer.

That account called the project the "next and possibly last major expansion of the resort's private residences."

What is being built

The Administration reported 52 homes with panoramic views of Nevis Peak and the Caribbean Sea. The developer's account adds one- to four-bedroom residences including penthouses, in four buildings, with views toward the Robert Trent Jones II golf course as well.

Ward & Co., a London design firm, is responsible for the interiors. Brisbane O'Garro Alvaranga, based in St. Kitts, is the architect. The account describes casual condominiums that blend contemporary design with Nevisian influences.

Both 2025 sources give the same headline figure of 52 homes; only the developer's account gives the four-building count.

Life at the resort

Residents are described as having a residents' pool and clubhouse, access to the resort's golf, full-service spa and fitness centre, and its four restaurants, tennis and pickleball courts, the Kids for All Seasons programme, and 24-hour concierge and housekeeping services.

The resort itself opened in February 1991 and covers about 350 acres between the slopes of Nevis Peak and Pinney's Beach, according to its published facts. It lists 189 rooms and suites alongside residential units.

Government backing and the programme

The Administration framed the project as sustainable, high-quality foreign direct investment, expected to create jobs and raise the island's international profile. It stated that each residence qualifies for the St. Kitts and Nevis Citizenship by Investment Programme.

The Premier was quoted saying that Nevis is "targeting the high end of the luxury market". The Citizenship by Investment Unit publishes the list of approved real estate developments and states its own requirements, including a seven-year minimum holding period; as of November 14, 2026 its list shows Four Seasons Resort Estates and The Villas at Pinneys Beach.

What it means for owners and visitors

The ceremony set the project in motion; no construction schedule or completion date was given by either source, so none is stated here. By February 2026 the work had moved to above-ground building. For current availability and a visit, contact the sales office at the resort.
