That's how you've found this lovely little gem of a house on the prettiest little jewel of all the Caribbean islands, Nevis, 40 miles west of Antigua and 50 miles south of St Bart's. 'Serendipity' nestles amid palms and mango trees in a quiet spot 400ft up the jungly side of Mount Nevis, yet is only a five-minute drive from the longest and best beach on the island, ten minutes from the quaint 18th Century capital village of Charlestown, and just fifteen minutes from the sleepy little airport, where scheduled airlines fly in daily from Puerto Rico, Antigua and St Maarten. There are also regular direct flights to nearby St Kitts from the US, Canada and England. Sleeps up to 4 with 2 bedrooms, bathroom, shower room, spacious living room, fully equipped modern kitchen, study, laundry room, and wide protected verandah beside a 30ft x 15ft swimming pool with a glorious view across the colourful garden and two miles of sparkling sea to the sunset and St Kitts. Newly built and tastefully furnished in a simple Caribbean style, 'Serendipity' has air conditioning in both bedrooms and study, multi-channel TVs in living room and main bedroom, DVD player, broadband, big ice-making fridge-freezer, large gas cooker, microwave oven, dishwasher, coffee machine, juicer and toaster. It’s so idyllic and comfortable that the British owners, a painter and author, spend several months there every winter and have to tear themselves away every summer to return to the real world. The island of Nevis is a dreamy miniature paradise, just 6 miles long by 6 miles wide, with a balmy climate, cool breezes, calm seas, lovely beaches, colourful forests, mountain walks, elegant old plantation houses, smart hotels and restaurants, relaxed beach bars and bistros, an 18-hole Robert Trent Jones golf course, picturesque villages, and the nicest, friendliest people you could ever hope to meet - people who wave and smile as you drive by. In Nevis each golden day is like a time-warp back to the 1950s where people are polite and respectful and crime is rare. There are no flashy nightclubs, vulgar casinos, or rowdy tourists - just a quiet, relaxed, stylish, old-fashioned little haven that still deserves its 18th Century nickname,'The Queen of the Caribbees'.
