Antigua has hundreds of beaches, from the bustling Pigeon Point to the kitesurfing paradise of Jabberwock Beach. It's fun to mix it up—a day spent in a secluded cove, another spent people-watching at a tourist magnet. When you’re tired of sun and sand you can shoot ‘em up at Reservoir Range, where archery and air pistols are a fun way to work out any lingering pre-vacation stress. A tour of the Antigua Distillery is a spirited way to experience a true taste of the island.

Welcome to The Escape at Nonsuch Bay Resort in Antigua. A modern Couples Only All-Inclusive getaway, The Escape is the only resort on the Island where every unit includes a luxurious private plunge Pool and outdoor tub, all with breathtaking sea views. The Resort consists of 40 Luxury Ocean front, plunge pool suites of 600 sq. designed with comfort, romance and island living in mind. Each unit comes with a king-sized bed; en suite bathroom with a separate shower and double vanity basins. The suites also feature an elegant wet bar coffee center, along with a seating area perfectly aligned with an outdoor soaking tub and relaxing day beds overlooking the room pool.
My husband and I were looking for a relaxing, chill getaway for the first time since COVID and having a baby. This is a great mix between a boutique hotel and all-inclusive convenience. Drinks were strong and plentiful, the food menu changes often with a good mix of local cuisine and crowd pleasers (e.g. burger and fries), and the rooms were a clean, private oasis to enjoy when you want down time. The staff was friendly and accommodating, especially the ladies at the front desk and the evening crew. The staff even offered us a spare room for 30 minutes to shower in before our flight. For those who are looking for the typical all-inclusive vibe, this isn’t it. There was very little entertainment and only a handful of planned on-premises activities that incurred a surcharge. But, if you’re like us and taking a quick (4-5 day) vacation and want to relax, this fits the bill and some. Also, the escape side only has a Bay for kayaking. The beach is located on the other side of the resort, which we did not visit, but they do offer regular shuttle service. FWIW, we did go off the resort several times - Dickenson Beach, which has beautiful water and lots of restaurants along the beach to choose from, and Darkwood Beach for a more local vibe with one of the most gorgeous beaches I’ve ever seen. We also did an offsite tour. The hotel scheduled round trip cabs and it couldn’t have been easier. All of this to say, we would return in a heartbeat and recommend to anyone looking for a low key vibe for vacation.

Please note that the resort caters to adult COUPLES ONLY. Single guests are not accepted.
Excellent location with great beaches, although these were occasionally affected by unpleasant aromas from the nearby pond. Hotel description warns about hilly access to cottages which proved to be a little more challenging than expected. Our travelling companions found it necessary to request a move as their cottage 26 was located down 40 steps after a steep upward climb. Hotel facilities and cottages were good but the rustic nature of the cottages tended to be quite basic and we encountered some plumbing issues. Staff were very friendly and whilst quality of food was good, service at times was very slow and the planned daily menus were repeated weekly which was a little repetitive after our first week. Management were extremely helpful and responded quickly to resolve any issues and our overall experience was very positive.

And more importantly we want to make sure that when you leave us you do so deeper in love with each other than you ever were before. We welcome you to romance, to tranquility and to our charming little slice of paradise. We welcome you to Keyonna Beach Resort Antigua.
It seems that everyone coming here does so for the same reason. They want the intimate feel of this style of resort. It lives up to expectations. We were celebrating our 32nd anniversary and it is well suited for any honeymoon, anniversary or any other romantic stay. A good mix of ages so all can feel comfortable even though there aren’t many people. Room size was good. We had a sunset beachfront room on the lower level and we were very pleased with this choice. All of the rooms/ cottages looked good but we have a pool at home and didn’t really care about getting a small plunge pool. We loved being directly on the beach and Antigua is all about the beach and sea for us. Assigned chairs and Bali beds are nice. We didn’t do much off resort but didn’t feel the need to for seven night stay. Food and beverages were also very good. There were plenty of options available and even if you didn’t see something that you wanted, you could ask for something else and they would make effort to make something to suit you. Service was very attentive and friendly. Entertainment was decent and low key. It does end relatively early and people head back to rooms early. The only thing I thought would be nice improvement would be if breakfast started earlier than 7:30AM. Even 30 minutes. Everyone goes to bed early so you end up having to kill time before heading to breakfast. We don’t often return to same resort but I would consider going back if we were looking at Antigua again.

We feel so lucky we stayed at HB for our honeymoon. This place is a gem, and we'll always remember the memories made here. The view and plunge pool from our hillside suite were incredible. The staff was always friendly and professional. Morning yoga with Charlotte was a great way to start the day. Live music at night was always excellent. The food was so delicious that we cleaned our plates every time. So much so that the front desk asked me if I was expecting a boy or girl on our last morning there. A bit offensive, but I'll let it slide because it's a testament to the great food there ;). However, please don't ever ask a guest that again. If you're looking to unplug, fully relax and be taken care of - HB is for you.

An intimate, romantic, all suites hotel set in a fabulous, bird and flower filled, tropical garden, on the sheltered mile long white sand beach of Dickenson Bay. A tranquil hideaway for the discerning, independent, traveler looking for excellence in Caribbean hospitality and 'home away from home' comfort.Palms grow through the roof of the award winning Coconut Grove Restaurant where a ribbon of sand separates the dining tables from the blue Caribbean Sea.
My husband and I spent 5 days at Siboney and the experience was nothing short of wonderful. We got excellent service from the front desk staff, especially Deandra and Joyette who we constantly interacted with, the housekeeping staff and the the restaurant. The location is ideal with the beach at your doorstep and many other restaurants and other activities in the area. We will definitely be returning to Antigua and Siboney again.

Flanked by water on both sides, Curtain Bluff sits on a rocky promontory (bluff) that juts into the sea between two beautiful beaches. One is calm, ideal for swimming and watersports; the other beach is washed by ocean surf. 72 Rooms and suites, all with staggering seascape views, are spread out along the Surf Beach and up the bluff. There are two restaurants: the open-walled Tamarind Tree serving breakfasts and candle-lit dinners, and the Beach Cafe & Bar, where barefoot-casual lunches are enjoyed one step from the sand and a few feet from the water's edge.The resort's exceptional facilities include a championship tennis center, a fully equipped watersports center (scuba, Windsurfing, paddle-boarding, waterskiing, Hobie Cats and kayaks), a squash court and fitness center. When it's time to relax, there's our tranquil spa overlooking the sea, a beachside swimming pool, a beach bar, and hammocks swaying in the shade of coconut palms.With the exception of a few above-and-beyond luxuries (Cuban cigars, vintage wines, spa treatments), everything is included in the room rate, making it one of the best values in the Caribbean.
We recently went to Curtain Bluff on a family holiday and had the best time!! The resort, staff and overall experience was incredible. We are already taking about planning our next holiday, my favourite hotel ever! :)
