Car hire recommended, we can advise.
The Caribbean needs no introductions, its crystal waters and fine, white sandy beaches are second to none- and Antigua certainly lives up to the romantic expectation. The island is low key, informal and very much old Caribbean. Restaurants and bars are all open shacks and the dress code is flip flops and floaty dresses. No over the top glitz here.
English Harbour boasts a rich colourful history as the former headquarters of the British Royal Navy’s Caribbean Fleet. Its centrepiece is historic Nelson’s Dockyard, named after Admiral Nelson who lived here from 1784 to 1787. It is the only original working Georgian dockyard in the world and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in July 2016.
The natural harbours at English Harbour and Falmouth Harbour and the pervasive trade winds have made them the sailing hub of the Caribbean with some of the world’s most prestigious regattas taking place including-
Antigua Charter Yacht Show in early December
Superyacht Challenge late January / early February
RORC Caribbean 600 in February
Antigua Classic Yacht Regatta in April
Antigua Sailing Week late April to early May
The Talisker Atlantic Challenge finishes in January/February in Nelsons Dockyard.
Walks from Windward Landing to English Harbour and Falmouth Harbour provide breathtaking views of Montserrat, Redonda, the Pillars of Hercules and historic naval forts including One Gun Battery, Fort Cuyler and Middle Ground.
Sailing lessons, horse riding and paddle board hire can be found at Antigua Yacht Club in Falmouth Harbour.
Yoga, meditation and various exercise classes can be found in English Harbour.
This house is truly something special. Located at the peak of Reeds Point on the South West coast, it boasts some of the most incredible views in Antigua. With sensational white sandy beaches right on your doorstep, and so much to explore nearby, you’ll be spoilt for choice staying here, as it really has something for everyone.
Inside, the beautifully luxe interiors have been impeccably thought out. Soft, natural tones are punctuated with subtle yet bold colours and fabrics. Each bedroom has its own character and style, yet all is, of course, of the highest standard.
Outside, the shaded dining terrace perfectly frames those incredible views, and if that’s not enough then why not admire the views from the infinity-edge swimming pool, perfect for a scenic dip before breakfast.
This would be the perfect spot to soak up that all-important winter sunshine.
