Blue Waters

All Inclusive 7 nights from £2,329 per person Including Flights

Overview

On the northeast coast of Antigua, Blue Waters sits in 17 acres of manicured tropical garden, making it one of the most secluded resorts in the Caribbean. We love the stunning surrounds, flanked by two white sand beaches.

This is a beautiful resort in elegant settings that is perfect for romantic couples holidays and relaxing family holidays, offering either bed and breakfast or all-inclusive. Blue Waters offers the intimacy and personal service of a family run hotel.  We love the food here – there are three highly regarded restaurants offering a la carte dining in sophisticated style. And you can count on easy-going service with a warm smile – one of the hallmarks of Caribbean quality.

It’s located just 15 minutes from the airport and 10 minutes from the capital St John’s, making it ideal for exploring Antigua and making the most of your Caribbean holiday.

Top tip: the beach has to be accessed by steps, so may not be accessible to all.
