Honeymoon in Antigua Caribbean at Hermitage Bay

Aug 7, 2012

Leaving the stress and excitement of wedding plans and parties behind, newlyweds will find absolute pleasure in the secluded cove and private suites at Hermitage Bay. Our collection of cosy, individual cottages are luxuriously appointed and perfectly romantic, creating the ideal honeymoon destination. As one guest said, “If you are celebrating your honeymoon, your engagement, or just your relationship, and you want to selfishly steal all of your significant others' time with no distractions (except for the truly amazing view)”, then Hermitage Bay is where you want to be.
As if living on your own private island, you'll find it easy to forget the world, abandon your inhibitions and enjoy living in the moment.

Why Choose Hermitage Bay

If your definition of the ideal Caribbean getaway includes an intimate, beachfront hotel set in a secluded  cove, then Hermitage Bay may be just what you’re looking for. Spanning 10 acres of lush tropical  gardens, our eco-chic, luxury hotel provides all the comforts of a 5 star resort without compromising the  natural habitat that thrives around it. Our open-air facilities, extensive beach, and detached rooms allow  you to unwind in isolated luxury.

This, however, is just the beginning as a honeymoon at Hermitage Bay is further enhanced by all-inclusive dining at its best: fresh, gourmet entrées that change on a daily basis, a premium bar that  pours Grey Goose and Johnny Walker Black, and a staff to guest ratio of 2 to 1 at full occupancy, all of  which ensure a truly luxurious, carefree stay.

Accommodations at Hermitage Bay

Accommodation at Hermitage Bay consists of 25 individual cottages that begin on the edge of the beach  and spread discreetly up the hillside as if “carved out of nature.” Each of the 8 beachfront cottages  features a spacious split level lounge and patio, while the large wrap-around decks and private plunge  pools of the 17 hillside pool suites afford the added luxury of soaking up the Caribbean sun from the  privacy of your own room.

Each room offers a sea view, with the beach cottages further enhanced by tranquil tropical gardens  and a white sand beach; and the hillside pool suites by spectacular panoramas of the bay, natural  mangroves and distant harbor. The décor is simple and unassuming; pristine white Italian linens, plush  ivory cushions and light, textured walls soften the richly stained floorboards, large, masculine furniture  and vaulted ceilings.

Deluxe amenities complement the rooms’ naturally beautiful, rustic charms. Elegant, mesh canopies  adorns king size beds draped in luxurious Italian linens by Rivolta Carmignani. There are Green  and Blacks chocolates in the mini-bars and Aromatherapy Associates bath soaps on the oversized,  freestanding bathtubs. For your convenience and comfort, rooms are also equipped with an iPod  docking station, 26in flat screen TV, DVD player, Wi-Fi and air-conditioning.

Dining at Hermitage Bay

One of Hermitage Bay’s most distinguishing qualities is our commitment to serve delicious meals made  from the freshest, highest quality ingredients available, from locally grown produce and our own organic  fruits and vegetables, to Kobe Beef. Under the direction of our seasoned yet ever-curious executive  chef, Hermitage Bay offers a varied menu of Caribbean favorites, American classics, and modern  European fare with an emphasis on fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

Whether enjoying lunch by the pool, dining in the beachfront restaurant, or having breakfast in bed,  every meal feels privately catered. There are no buffets, entrées are prepared to order and special  dietary requests – like gluten free, vegan or vegetarian – are accommodated with ease.

Activities at Hermitage Bay

On site activities offered on a complimentary basis include non-motorized water sports, a fitness center,  organic garden tour, cooking demonstrations, morning yoga, Pilates, and dawn meditation, and hiking  trails. Spa treatments are available at an additional cost. While most come to Hermitage Bay for rest and  relaxation, there are also several excursions and activities available for those who wish to experience  more of the island, including zip lining, helicopter tours, boat cruises, and deep sea fishing, to name a  few.
