Popular with Europeans and Americans alike, this 40 acre resort attracts active couples, singles, and families seeking a beach holiday next to the turquoise Caribbean Sea. With its open feel and abundance of gardens, relaxation comes naturally.
What I wish I
could change:
This is an English island and proper dress is required for dinner, such as collared shirts, dress pants and shoes for men and skirts, dresses, capri's or pants for women.
Why YOU should
go:
Jolly Beach sits on one of the prettiest beaches I have seen. Not to be missed is Shirley Heights on Sunday nights. Great place to mingle with the locals and the sunsets overlooking English Harbour are fantastic.
Fronting a mile long Caribbean beach on the island's west coast is Antigua's best known All-Inclusive beach resort set on 40 tropical acres attracting couples, singles, and families seeking a beach holiday next to the turquoise Caribbean Sea.
