Location:
Ideally situated on Antigua’s idyllic southern coastline, Bay House is nestled between the beautiful Turtle Bay and the horseshoe-shaped inlet of Falmouth Harbour. The villa’s excellent location perfectly encapsulates the stunning natural beauty of Antigua. Encompassing peaceful bays, coral reefs and magical blue lagoons, the island allows visitors to explore the ocean’s wonders whilst soaking up the Caribbean sunshine!
Antigua and Barbuda is a nation made up of two namesake sister islands and several smaller islets. Antigua is the nation’s largest island at just 281 km². The fact that you can easily traverse the island by car makes it the perfect place for a relaxed Caribbean getaway. Each day you will be tempted to stay close to home, on the silky white sands of Turtle Bay Beach. Secluded by dense green hilltops, Turtle Bay is a hidden beauty spot where you can swim and snorkel to your heart’s content before making your way to Falmouth Harbour for lunch. With 365 beaches dotted along the island’s coastline, one for each day of the year, you will always be spoiled for choice when it comes to your next dip in the ocean.
Blissful beaches are only the beginning of all that this vibrant, friendly island has to offer. A fifteen-minute drive away, Nelson’s Dockyard National Park is one of five fantastic national parks in Antigua. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this eighteenth-century British naval dockyard is an area of great historical significance on the island and a popular venue for maritime events and activities. Nelson’s Dockyard offers visitors plenty of fantastic trekking trails with breathtaking sights along the way.
Consider visiting Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout with panoramic views and the home of a famous Sunday evening party, where visitors are invited to participate in the festivities. Listen to live Caribbean steel drum bands, try some of the local food and rum punch and discover fantastic sunset views of the island.
The Antiguan capital of St. John’s is well worth a visit. Only forty minutes away by car, this colourful Caribbean port is home to an impressive cathedral and lively markets by the harbour every weekend. You can also visit the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda in the old colonial Court House to learn more about the nation’s fascinating history.
Located on the other side of the island, Devil’s Bridge is another Antiguan national park that is sure to make an impression. The bridge is a natural arch composed of limestone rock, formed over many thousands of years. With geysers and blowholes surrounding the bridge as the waves of the Atlantic crash against the rocks, this bracing adventure will leave you in awe of the serene beaches you have just left behind.
