Oualie Beach Resort
relaxed beachfront charm on Nevis
Nestled on a pristine stretch of white sand at Oualie Bay, Oualie Beach Resort is a welcoming, family-owned beachside retreat that’s been operating since 1980.
The resort is made up of just 32 cozy Caribbean-style cottages — single and two-storey “gingerbread” buildings — each set right along the shore or just steps back, giving a peaceful, intimate feel with stunning sea views.
Inside, rooms are simple but comfortable — with amenities such as air-conditioning, mini-fridges, coffee/tea facilities, and private verandas or patios. Some rooms even offer kitchenettes or interconnecting layouts, making them a good choice for couples, friends or families.
Guests delight in the resort’s relaxed, casual vibe: days can be spent sunbathing on the sandy beach, swimming in calm, shallow waters, snorkeling or diving (with a dive shop just next door), kayaking or strolling along the shoreline.
For evenings, the open-air beachfront restaurant and bar offer tasty local and international dishes — often featuring fresh seafood and produce — and hosts regular live music nights, steel-pan performances, and jazzy cocktail vibes.
What makes Oualie stand out is its laid-back, friendly atmosphere, combined with genuine Caribbean character: the cottages, the palm-fringed beach, the sound of the sea, local music and the warm hospitality give it a “come as you are” island feel that’s perfect when you’re travelling casually, or travelling with a group.
