This time I swore I would have no more than 2 Killer Bees, and I would drink something non-alcoholic in-between. And I did it, though it's hard, when they signature cocktail is so delicious and refreshing and deceptively LETHAL! But it's not just drinks here. It's a good lobster salad sandwich and a friendly, mellow vibe that invites you to linger long after lunch is over.
While the food was ok, the pricing was outrageous: $20 for a fish sandwich! However, beer is reasonably priced. Staff was efficient, but indifferent. Would not go back
Walked over from the Four Seasons with a few friends for a late night sample of Killer Bees. We weren't disappointed. It's an open air small island beach bar that captures the spirit of Nevis.Danced and had a good time. Modest prices
Sunshine's is a great bar with the classic drink to try, the 'killer bee'. The bar is located right on the beach, the staff are really friendly, and there is a money to hang out with. I cant speak for the food because I didn't eat there but the killer bees alone are worth the trip.
We dined here for lunch, limin to the local jams and falling in love with the lobster salad. The owner is cool and hospitable. It is a great place to drink and dine. The only drawback was the beach vendors in the restaurant. I would have preferred for them to linger outside. It interrupted our meals to be coerced into buying.
We were introduced to Killer Bees on a 1st trip @ the Four Seasons when the proprietor was just down the beach in a tiny hut. The intimate nature allowed for meeting DFW suburb "neighbors" there at same time. A must-do our repeat trip to Nevis 10 years later, it had expanded and added a large flat-screen TV. Sunshine's packed the same "Punch" and laid-back atmosphere, along with a tasty lunch-appetizer menu to allow for safe imbibing. Beware, successive Killer Bees have a way of sneaking up & sting you!
The ceiling is covered with flags, on our Friday afternoon visit the stereo was pumping out seventies and eighties soul classics, somehow every song capturing the word sunshine: You are the Sunshine of My life, Aint no Sunshine etc. Music was great but quite loud, so unlike us, don't try and bring a sleepy baby. We had two pineapple juices, red snapper with salad and a jumbo prawn salad. The snapper was huge, chargrilled, well seasoned with sea salt and pepper and deliciously moist and fresh. Salads were generous with quality ingredients. The food would not have been out of place at the Four Seasons where we stayed down the road but the trouble is neither would the prices. We paid around $65-70 US with tip to a dour waitress who reminded us there was no service included. Our Pineapples juices were in tiny cups and were cheap concentrates not the fresh ones you'd expect for $10 a pop. So go if you are staying at FS and you want a taste of the local vibe and good food gu8ve it a try but don't think you are going to save a lot of money on your usual meal prices.
Sunshine's is a beach bar without the crowds. You can sit inside or out. Sunshine himself is there and is happy to talk about the place. The famous and the not-famous alike are barefoot and everyone leaves everyone in peace. No gawking, not autographs, nothing but a good time in a beautiful country.
Our lunch was great - very tasty - a chicken sandwich and a fish sandwich. The view was terrific but felt that the meal was overpriced.
Yes, please be careful with the drinks .. they will definitely slowly hit you. Ohh, and dont drink and 4-wheel, or drink and jet ski ... I have scars to prove it. It is a hole in the wall, but excellent food and drinks. It should be franchised, lol.
