Beaches, Pools and Pickleball. Why This is a Caribbean All-Inclusive Resort for Everyone
A pair of beautiful beaches. Six different pools. Five restaurants. Some of the best pickleball facilities in the world. A kids club. A destination spa.
The first thing you notice about the St James’ Club and Villas in Antigua is its completeness. There’s really something for everyone here, whether you’re looking for a couples’ retreat on the beach or a classic family vacation.
There are just under 250 rooms at this resort set on a 100-acre peninsula in Antigua — meaning you get all the space and comfort you’re looking for, the seclusion you seek or the energy you crave.
If your’e looking for a getaway with the significant other and the kids, you’re covered: endless watersports (everything from pedal boats to Hobie cats to kayaks); four lit tennis courts, another three pickleball courts.
The kids club is for everyone from 4-12: think scavenger hunts, arts and crafts and fun in the sun. (For multi-generational groups, the resort’s villas are a great option, with a mix of two and three-bedroom villas on property perfect for families and those looking for that little extra bit of space).
If it’s a laid-back beach getaway you’re in the market for, you can rotate between two different white sand beaches every day, before making your way to the Tranquility Spa or the full-service, 3,700-square-foot fitness center.
If you’re active travelers, there’s nowhere better: hit the gym, take walks on the beach, get your paddle sports on or spend the day kayaking and snorkeling in the bay.
But the best part of this resort might just be the location: it’s set on the southern coast of Antigua, just a short drive away from so many of Antigua’s top attractions: the Shirley Heights Lookout, English Harbour, the historic streets of Nelson’s Dockyard; Pigeon Point Beach. It’s only half an hour to the resort’s 18-hole Cedar Valley Golf Course, if you want to hit the links.
Even better? You can explore Antigua in other ways: by sea, with the fantastic Calypso Cat Catamaran tour, where you can enjoy some of the Caribbean’s best snorkeling; or join the female-led Pink Panther Safari tour group that takes you on a deep drive into the adventure that is Antigua.
This is the essence of the Caribbean all-inclusive: a relaxed, authentic resort that delivers true Antiguan hospitality, with an experience for every kind of vacation.
It’s a Caribbean all-inclusive for everyone.
