That’s along with several popular excursions for guests: Pink Panther Safari Tours, which offer travelers full tours of the island in custom-built, hot-pink Land Rovers, and Calypso Cat, the beloved maritime cruise led by Captain Noel DuBerry, which also includes a stop at Antigua’s beautiful Bird Island. 

The Verandah, set on 30 acres, has a mix of suites and villas, with each pair of adjacent suites designed for the “look and feel of a cozy Caribbean cottage,” according to Elite.

The resort is home to amenities ranging from a pair of lighted tennis courts, a broad watersports center, a complete 18-hole mini golf course to a full-service spa called Tranquility.

All Elite Island Resorts properties require guests age 16 and over to present proof of vaccination upon check-in.
