The all-inclusive plan covers meals, cocktails, and daily housekeeping, with dining that happens right on the beach—yes, your feet are in the sand while dinner is served.
This is a true adults-only property (18+), and the vibe is intimate and romantic (COCOS’ caters to couples) without being over-the-top. The beach is calm, white, and quiet, perfect for swimming or claiming a lounge chair and not moving for hours. It’s ideal for couples who want privacy, low-key luxury, and zero distractions that aren’t sunset-related.
Cocobay Resort Antigua
Cocobay Resort is colorful, charming, and very good at romance. The all-inclusive plan covers daily meals, drinks, and select activities, with dining often set against the ocean backdrop at their cliffside restaurant. The resort is made up of pastel-hued, freestanding cottages—all with a private balcony and hammock, many with private plunge pools—designed to maximize privacy and sea views.
This is a strictly adults-only resort (18+). Live entertainment is offered on select nights each week, and snorkeling, kayaking, and hobie cat sailing gear are available for guests looking to explore the calm surrounding waters.
Galley Bay Resort & Spa
Galley Bay is classic Antigua luxury done barefoot. The all-inclusive experience is comprehensive, covering meals at multiple open-air restaurants, drinks, non-motorized water sports, and fitness classes. Rooms are beachfront cottages and suites with direct access to the sand, oversized terraces, and interiors that feel breezy and refined without being stiff. This is the kind of place where you wake up, walk straight into the ocean, and wonder why more hotels don’t work this way.
Adults-only (18+), Galley Bay is serene and romantic. The beach is long, quiet, and ideal for swimming or snorkeling, and the food scene is genuinely good for an all-inclusive, with plenty of fresh seafood.
Sandals Grande Antigua
Sandals Grande Antigua is all-inclusive maximalism in the best way. Unlimited dining across multiple restaurants, premium liquors, and water sports are all included, so once you arrive, your wallet becomes irrelevant. The resort sits on Dickenson Bay, one of Antigua’s most famous beaches, with powdery sand and calm water. Accommodations range from elegant garden rooms to swim-up suites and overwater villas designed exclusively for couples.
This is a couples-only, adults-only resort (18+), and the mood is unapologetically romantic. Expect sunset sails, beachfront cabanas, and just enough entertainment to keep evenings interesting without turning into a party scene. Ideal for honeymooners or couples who want a no-decisions-required escape.
Royalton CHIC Antigua
Royalton CHIC is one of Antigua’s most modern and social resorts. The all-inclusive plan includes unlimited dining across seven restaurants (including the island’s first overwater restaurant), premium liquors, fitness classes, and daily entertainment. The design is sleek and contemporary, with clean lines, neutral palettes, and plenty bars designed for socializing.
The resort is located on Dickenson Bay, one of Antigua’s most famous stretches of white sand. Accommodations are spacious, tech-forward, and made for adults who appreciate a little style with their sea view, with upgraded room categories offering features like swim-up access or private plunge pools.
This is an Adults-Only (18+) resort, and the mood leans lively. Think DJ sets at the pool, themed nights, and a lively pool scene, balanced by the beautiful, calmer sands of the Dickenson Bay beach where you can still relax. Perfect if you want high-energy, contemporary design, and the option to socialize and stay out late.
Keyonna Beach
Keyonna Beach is an upscale resort that’s for couples-only. The all-inclusive plan focuses on quality over quantity, with fresh meals, house cocktails, and attentive service included.
