Antigua

The Antiguans are justifiably proud of their stunning beaches – all 365 of them. It’s a wonder they managed to count them, as quite a few have inviting castaway-style bars that stock some very quaffable rums – locally-distilled Cavalier, which is aged in bourbon barrels, is a good quality one to bring home and it tastes great too.

Escaping to a sun-drenched island is on most of us bucket list, of things to do.  But for a once in a life time experience how do you choose the right location for that perfect romantic getaway? Maybe you want to recharge your batteries, or perhaps you fancy some personal training in a state-of-the-art-gym, followed by a rejuvenating spa treatment and dinner at a fabulous restaurant boasting international haute cuisine.

Antigua is one of the most tranquil and charming of the Caribbean islands, famed for its 365 stunning powdery soft beaches.  The best of these is Dickenson Bay with its silk white sand leading down to the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.

It is in this idyllic location that you will find a very special place voted the "World's Most Romantic Resort" for 15 years, the stunning Sandals Grande Antigua Resort and Spa.
