Where St. Kitts Marriott Resort is
St. Kitts Marriott Resort sits on Frigate Bay, on the Atlantic side of St. Kitts near the golf course and the main resort strip. It is on the St. Kitts side of the channel, so reaching it from SKB Airport is a road journey only — there is no water taxi on the airport leg.
Frigate Bay lies between the airport and the South East Peninsula, which makes the Marriott one of the shorter arrival drives on the island. From SKB it is usually around 15 minutes, depending on traffic and the time of day.
- In Frigate Bay, on the Atlantic (east) side of St. Kitts.
- On the St. Kitts side of the channel — airport transfers are by road only.
- One of the shorter airport drives on St. Kitts, usually about 15 minutes.
- Close to the golf course, casino and the Frigate Bay restaurant strip.
Getting between SKB Airport and the Marriott
The journey between SKB Airport and St. Kitts Marriott Resort is a direct drive. On arrival you are met after customs — look for a Book Nevis sign — and taken straight to the resort reception. Because the hotel is on St. Kitts, no water taxi or pier connection is needed for arrival or departure.
Booking ahead is useful when you are travelling with luggage, arriving as a family or group, landing late, or you simply want the pickup time fixed in advance rather than looking for a taxi on the day.
From the Marriott to Nevis and Four Seasons
Some guests split their trip across both islands, pairing a stay at the Marriott with time on Nevis. The route from the Marriott to Four Seasons Resort Nevis is an inter-island journey: a road leg across St. Kitts to the water-taxi pier, a private crossing of the channel, and arrival at the Four Seasons Nevis pier.
That is different from a straightforward airport transfer, because it links road travel on St. Kitts with a water crossing to Nevis, coordinated as a single booking. If Four Seasons is part of your trip, the Four Seasons Nevis guide covers the Nevis side of the journey.
From the Marriott to Hamilton Beach Villas, Nevis
Book Nevis also runs a direct private transfer between the St. Kitts Marriott Resort and Hamilton Beach Villas & Spa on Nevis. It is a single booking covering the road leg across St. Kitts, the private water-taxi crossing between Reggae Beach Pier and Oualie Pier, and the road leg on Nevis to the villas — US$240 each way for up to four passengers. Booking both directions together applies an automatic 10% return saving, making the round trip US$432.
When it is worth booking ahead
Arranging your transfer in advance helps most when timing or logistics matter:
- Families or larger groups travelling with luggage.
- Early-morning departures or late-night arrivals.
- Split-island stays that combine St. Kitts and Nevis.
- Onward travel to Nevis that needs a water-taxi crossing coordinated.
- Guests connecting from a flight with a tight turnaround.
- Peak travel dates, when vehicles book up early.

Your arrival or departure flight time, the number of guests, and any child seats needed. A final-details email with your pickup time, meeting point and a WhatsApp contact is sent ahead of travel.
