Hammock Cove Resort & Spa

Hammock Cove Resort & Spa sits in an unspoilt region of Antigua, next to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Devil’s Bridge National Park – a protected cosatal region named for a spectacular natural rock arch.

Your home at Hammock Cove is a luxurious villa overlooking the ocean, each one with its own infinity plunge pool and a spacious lanai (veranda), where you can kick back and take in the uninterrupted ocean views.

Sun loungers, hanging chairs and even your own cocktail counter can be found on your veranda, while inside the luxury continues, with whitewashed walls, dark wood floors and furnishings, soft lighting, walk-in closets and huge bathrooms with pebbled basins.

For varied breakfasts, and coffee and light bites throughout the day and night, Irina’s is the place to go. The main restaurant, Lighthouse, serves superb Caribbean fusion cuisine with an emphasis – of course – on delicious seafood, fresh from the ocean, accompanied by a selection of the finest wines, beers, and spirits. The hotel also has no fewer than three bars: Devil’s Den, Chairman’s Reserve and On the Rocks, which is by the pool.

In addition to your own private infinity pool, you can take a dip in the cascading swimming pool and enjoy access to a beautiful white-sand beach, with a terrace and deck overlooking the sea. Pamper yourself in the spa or enjoy a yoga session.

Whether you’re sporty, arty, or want to learn a new skill, there are plenty of activities to keep you occupied. Try your hand at stand-up paddle boarding, or go snorkelling to explore beneath the waves. Caribbean cooking classes are available, as are mixology lessons, and there are seasonal workshops where you can learn how to create art and handicrafts inspired by local traditions, or take fantastic photographs.
