Dreamy Cocobay Resort is for the couple seeking a romantic getaway. This adults-only, all-inclusive resort excels in providing the most fanciful accommodation in Antigua. Ignite the spark at a private evening dinner on the beach or a satisfying couples massage. Rent a cozy cottage on a plush peninsula and wake up with your partner to the most dramatic views of the coast.

Barbuda Belle

You didn’t think we’d forget Barbuda, did you? On this quiet natural paradise, home to rare and exotic wildlife and less than 2,000 people, you’ll find The Barbuda Belle. It holds the distinction of being the smallest property on this list, offering eight immaculately luxurious beachfront bungalows. Of course, its exclusivity is part of its irresistible appeal. Each of the bungalows has a private large balcony, with gorgeous views of the nearby Codrington Lagoon Park. The family-owned hotel takes pride in capturing the beauty of the island of Barbuda with its nature-friendly concept and gourmet seafood restaurant. This remote and secluded property acts as an ideal sanctuary for a greater adventure on Barbuda, letting visitors observe the captivating wildlife as they enjoy the island’s trademark pink sands.

The Admiral's Inn and Gunpowder Suites

The Admiral's Inn is intended for the sophisticated traveller seeking tradition and regal charm. This one-of-a-kind boutique resort will make you feel like you’ve stepped into a grand historical novel. Stroll the lush grounds lined with antique stone pillars and attractively timeworn structures that date back to the 18th century. Sit in the ocean-side lounge to converse with like-minded travellers over a well-balanced Caribbean cocktail. Take a nap in a stunning canopy bed after reading all day by a crystal clear infinity pool. Your stay at Admiral’s Inn will be as stimulating as it is exceedingly comfortable. No two rooms are the same but all are decorated in an opulent colonial style. The hotel also has a sweeping view of English Harbour, the historic district of Antigua and an important cultural centre of the island. There, you’ll have endless choices of leisure like hiking trails, impressive beaches and Nelson's Dockyard, a cultural heritage site and marina. Admiral's Inn and Gunpowder Suites will transport you back in time.

Facilities at the resort also offer tennis, yoga, croquet, cycling, kayaking and many more heart-pounding outdoor pastimes. Boundless adventure awaits at Galley Bay, but your trip can be equally as tranquil. Spend your day daydreaming on the serene beach, flow with the current in the refreshing Caribbean water or take in the sounds of nature in the verdant gardens.
