Picture yourself and your loved one strolling hand in hand along Antigua’s most famous and beautiful white-sand beach, Dickenson Bay. Picture palm fronds swaying against brilliant blue skies. Picture calm waters gently lapping the shore. Like what you see? All this awaits at Sandals Grande Antigua, a dream hideaway for discerning couples seeking the holiday of a lifetime, which was voted the ‘Caribbean’s Most Romantic Resort’, at the World Travel Awards. Here, modern luxury abounds, from the resort’s unique Rondovals, tucked into hidden gardens that feature a private plunge pool, to villas inspired by the Mediterranean, arranged around the beach and airy pool-front piazza. Or, for an unparalleled romantic idyll, how about the Mediterranean Butler Villa, where your personal butler, trained by Professional English Butlers, will anticipate your every need while you enjoy picture-postcard views of Dickenson Bay from the comfort of your private pool.
Mealtimes are sure to be a highlight of any stay, with Sandals Grande Antigua boasting no fewer than 11 restaurants.
