While we were on a recent trip to SXM in June, 2023, we took the opportunity to visit Kazanu, a naturist resort in Oyster Pond and meet it’s new owner, Tim Roosens.



The property previously operated for some 25 years as a naturist resort, as Caribbean Nature and Naturissimo. For those familiar with Oyster Pond, the location is very close to to L’Oasis, and Mama Pizza is a short drive. The website is HERE. The vibe of the place is totally low key, and naturist. All units are fully air conditioned, have wi-fi and TV.

The shining star of the property is the “La Vu” room. The furniture and furnishings in this room rival or exceed many private villas.

This room has a full kitchen, including a dishwasher, stove, fridge with icemaker, etc., and a washer.



There is a separate bedroom with king sized bed in this unit on the 1st floor.



The master bath is lovely.



The living room is beautiful and comfortable. The loft has a single bed in it.



There is a huge porch, with a couch and chairs and table



With an amazing view out toward Orient.







This unit is on the same level as the parking area, for those with difficulties walking.

Other than the La Vu room, the other units are smaller and more economical. Also on the same level as the parking area, is the Oseyan studio.



This room also has a king sized bed and has a smaller outside porch, with part of the porch having a view similar to the La Vu room.



Currently, the property consists of 5 units and a pool, with two more units to be completed in the near future. Tim and his sister Anke have made several improvements to the property since acquiring it. There is now parking inside the gated resort, plus several other improvements, including a new stairway from the upper units to the lower units.



There are a total of maybe 10 stairs going down from the upper level to the lower level. The three rooms by the pool each are the same, with a queen sized bed, kitchenette and small outside patio,



They all walk straight out to the pool, which features loungers and umbrellas. Sorry, I didn't get any pictures of the pool itself, but there are some on the webpage. Eventually there will be a gazebo by the pool, with a BBQ grill, for all to use.

Two sets of towels and sheets provided and are changed out once a week by the room service and more frequently if people desire, for an additional fee. There is also a laundry room available for guest to use by the parking lot, with one free wash a week, extras for a minimal fee. There is also a book lending library. Internet TV is provided, with RUKU Netflix Youtube apple tv etc. Plugs are french side plugs, but a couple of adapters are provided in each room.


Kazanu has become a TTOL sponsor, so if you check it out, or book there, please let Tim know you read about it here.
