St Kitts and Nevis: Premier of Nevis, Mark Brantley announced the official opening of the Bath Hot Springs on the island over the weekend following its renovation. The property boasts natural hot water and a beautifully crafted stone looking like someone’s face with the rest of the site being covered with stones, flowers and grass.
During the official opening of the facility, the Premier urged the locals to take great care of this beautiful facility and avoid spilling garbage inside it.
Mark Brantley also expressed his gratitude to Permanent Secretary John Hanley and to the driving force behind this project including Sylvester Josiah Meade.
This infrastructure project is a major milestone for the island of Nevis as it will soon attract a number of visitors seeking to take a bath in the natural hot waters of the Caribbean.
