No real shopping to speak of and the downtown is about a block and a half. That being said, the reason we came to Nevis is because it is not touristy or over-developed...I probably wouldn't want it any other way...

If you like history, you will like this place. Now the Nevis Museum of Natural History, this old stone house is where Alexander Hamilton was born. Adult and children's books, posters, maps, honey, tea, hot sauce, souveniers and local craft items can be bought. The attendant was knowledgeable and the displays interesting. Wish we had had more time to study the displays. Small but interesting.

My wife and I visited Nevis on a cruise vacation. The cruise made a stop in St Kitts and we took a ferry over to Nevis. While there we visited the Alexander Hamilton house. We were excited to see a place where one of the original revolutionary era soldier and framer of the declaration once lived. There wasn't much to see, but it was memoriable just the same.

Many Americans probably didn't know about the rich history behind Alexander Hamilton. The museum itself isn't anything special, but the tour guide's explanation of Hamilton's life would be enlightening to most. Worth a stop; allow for about 15 minutes.

This was a small museum, but had a lot of interesting information about the history of the Island. If you have 30 - 60 mnutes to spare and enjoy learning about the places you visit, I would recommend you visit here.

Good local history to widen your view of one of the founding fathers of the USA

If you like history well you will like this. Alexander Hamilton's birthplace! We stopped here as well as the Horatio Nelson museum. Both were very good.

A house of historical significance. Sits on the edge of the sea and a short walk from the ferry port.

We arrived 10 minutes prior to closing and the lady told us sternly that she'd already closed the upstairs (the Hamilton rooms) and that we needed to mind the time in the museum. She then disappeared and didn't offer any kind of courtesy to us, not even to give us an overview of the museum. We thought the museum was charming in its kind of homemade way and really would have appreciated at least some guidance, which would have made us feel like buying a trinket or two. I guess the docent was having a bad day, because our experience here was nothing like the rest of our interactions with the lovely people of Nevis.

I would bet most people thing Alexander Hamilton was born in America, or Europe. Instead he was born on Nevis and on this piece of land. The house located here is not where most of the information on A.H. is located. For that you have to go next door, upstairs, where you will find the information on his life. It is my understanding that this and the Museum of Nevis History are being combined and information shifted around so when you read things may have changed.
