FEATURED: TRAVEL – Hermitage Bay
Hermitage Bay is back and better than ever, having just re-opened at the beginning of November following a dazzling multi-million dollar revamp. This Antiguan paradise, now owned by luxury hotel legend Daniel Shamoon, mixes old Caribbean charm with a fresh, modern vibe that’s tailor-made for today’s travellers. Imagine 30 revamped villa suites—some tucked into lush hillsides, others right on the beach—each with wrap-around verandas, some even rocking private pools. Every suite is crafted for the ultimate al fresco island living experience.
But it’s more than just a makeover. Hermitage Bay now boasts a chic beach club and bar that bring social energy straight to the sand. Dine beachside, sip on craft cocktails, and vibe to local performances as the sun dips below the Caribbean. Head to the Tree Bar, a magical hideaway nestled under an ancient tree, or unwind at the redesigned pool bar, where mixologist Rodrigo Tartaglia will keep you refreshed with sunset-perfect cocktails.
Foodies, get ready: the dining scene is next-level. The main restaurant serves up the freshest local flavours—think spicy crab cakes and Caribbean classics—and there are two new dining experiences by the beach that blend a laid-back, upbeat energy with true Caribbean flavour.
For those craving relaxation, the newly refreshed Garden Spa offers open-air treatments with the sound of the waves in the background. Signature rituals and luxurious facials are available either in the serene spa or in the privacy of your suite.
Whether you’re lounging by the pool or setting off on a sunset cruise around Antigua, Hermitage Bay redefines luxury island living, inviting a new generation of travellers to bask in its effortlessly cool Caribbean vibes. Check out more details on the website and book here.
