Curtain Bluff, Antigua
Luxury Caribbean holidays, fifteen acres of beach and gardens create spectacular vistas for the fully inclusive 72 rooms and suites scattered up the bluff, where cooling sea breezes render air conditioning unnecessary even though the amenity is available.
Overview
The spacious Junior Suites have marble bathrooms and sunken living rooms, and are situated on the resort’s surf beach (a second beach offers calmer waters for water sports). The luxurious Morris Bay and Grace Bay Suites feature extra touches of indulgence such as four poster beds and balcony Jacuzzis.
The roomy accommodation is ideal for families, and both children and adults will find plenty to keep them amused here. Each May, Curtain Bluff hosts Antigua Tennis Week. Four floodlit courts and three resident pros will help improve your own game, or there’s squash, yoga, swimming in the 75 foot pool, croquet and a full range of motorised and non-motorised water sports.
Renew your energy at the weekly beach luncheon (complete with steel band) or in the main restaurant, accompanied by a bottle from the prodigious wine cellar – only 450 different vintages to choose from!
If you are travelling independently, taxis are available at the airport, from where the ride takes around 30 minutes
