YOUR ROMANT


Weddings, honeymoons or luxurious escapes are where Antigua and Barbuda come into their own, with the islands’ vast selection of lavish properties


Is there a better place to say “I do” than under the Caribbean sun? For customers looking to tie the knot with sand between their toes, among verdant gardens or in their own private villa, the islands of Antigua and Barbuda are an idyllic wedding destination. With affordable licence fees and no need for prior residency, weddings are hassle-free. Hotels can take care of the whole package, from the food to the flowers, while the couple can enjoy their stay in paradise before and after their big day. And for those who have tied the knot at home but


want to begin their married life in style, the islands are home to some world-class luxury hotels. The five-star Jumby Bay Island, set on an offshore island reachable only by boat, is the definition of a luxurious getaway, while


“Antigua is a great luxury destination as there is an excellent choice of lavish resorts and villas. Visitors can choose from fabulous, high-end restaurants, and unwind on stunning beaches, plus the island is easily accessible from the UK.”


TARA TAYLOR product manager for Caribbean & Mexico, If Only


“In Antigua, there’s a burgeoning beach dining scene so we’d recommend that clients venture from their hotels, even if booked on an all-inclusive package. Take time for a leisurely lunch and stay to enjoy the beach before a sundowner.”


MARK DUGUID managing director, Carrier


“We always suggest a day-trip sailing, and do not miss Shirley Heights on a Sunday for live music, rum cocktails and stunning sunsets. There’s luxury accommodation for all tastes, including private island retreats and boutique hideaways.”


REBECCA BRYSON head of sales, Caribtours


The Inn at English Harbour is a beautiful boutique hotel with a private dock next to the historic harbour site. With accommodation ranging from spa hotels and


historic inns to luxury villas and cosy guesthouses, there is a huge variety of places to stay. And with more than 5,000 rooms across the islands, your customers will be spoilt for choice, whatever their price point. For something truly special, try glamping on the beach, with the sound of the waves lulling you to sleep. The tents at Wild Lotus are shaped like lotus flowers and are decked out with four-poster beds and rainfall showers.
