I notice that the Fort Thomas Hotel and Resort has ben offered up by the St Kitts Government for use as a medical school location.

It is indeed a nice location. It is walking distance to the city center along the lovely Bay Road. It has a lovely view of the Baseterre Bay and out over the sea to contiguous Nevis. When I lived in St Kitts in 2002 I lived next door and can tell you that one can get from there the most lovely view of the sun arising over Nevis on mornings.


One would think that a lot of work would need to be done on the buildings, however, since the place has been vacant for years. I was told that it was offered to IUHS for sale but that they declined.

If it could be purchased and suitably renovated, it would be a lovely site for a medical school in my opinion; certainly far better than most that I have seen in the Caribbean.

Looking foward to seeing the rest of the photos.
