Blue Waters Resort & Spa - Antigua

Overview

Other facilities

The eponymous Blue Waters Resort & Spa wraps around Soldier’s Bay, offering stunning views of the Caribbean Sea. There are three secluded beaches, lined with sunloungers and umbrellas. Complimentary, non-motorised water sports are on offer at the main beach, including sailing, kayaking, wind surfing and snorkelling.

If you prefer to lounge by the pool, there are several to choose from. A picturesque beachfront pool overlooks the shoreline and there’s a quieter adult-only pool and a family-friendly pool. Away from the water, you’ll find a floodlit tennis court, set within tropical gardens, and a fitness centre which contains modern cardiovascular and strength training equipment. The tranquil spa uses ila products and specialises in ila treatments, and you can participate in invigorating yoga, Pilates and aqua classes. Head to the tours desk to book a range of excursions or cruises.

Kids aged five and over will love the wide range of complimentary activities available all year round, from Monday to Friday. Babysitting services are also available (additional charges apply).

The resort has launched a ‘single-use plastic free journey’ in an effort to reduce plastic consumption and to help create a more sustainable future. The bathroom toiletries used are by Neem Avenue, set in reusable bio-polymer bottles. Guests will also be given a complimentary, reusable water bottle on arrival, which can be refilled all around the resort.

Dining information

The Palm Restaurant is situated in the tropical gardens, overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner each day. Enjoy your full a la carte breakfast on the terrace, whether you opt for pastries, fresh fruit, smoothies, or popular local fare – such as fried plantain. Evenings offer an a la carte menu which changes daily, with one evening dedicated to a Caribbean barbecue. There’s also a live cooking station which gives you the chance to sample international flavours each night.

For the ultimate in fine dining, the Cove Restaurant’s unique clifftop position provides some of the most breathtaking views to be found in the Caribbean. It is now widely considered to be one of Antigua’s top dining experiences. This intimate venue opens for dinner up to four times weekly and features a creative menu which combines Caribbean and French cuisines. A ‘connoisseurs’ choice includes fine cuts of meat and is available for a supplement.

The Reef is a casual dining venue, which is open for lunch. Enjoy delicious salads, flat breads, burgers and ceviche, overlooking the beach and pool.

With three bars and lounges, you can easily order refreshing drinks all around the resort. Veronica’s Bar is located by the main pool and is home to daily sundowners and the weekly manager’s cocktail party, while the Caribbean-themed Pelican Bar is just steps away from the beach, offering sundowners and evening entertainment on select nights.
