On Antigua’s west coast, Galley Bay Resort offers access to three quarters of a mile of pristine beach. This adults-only, all-inclusive resort ensures staff care for your needs, letting you relax in tropical surroundings.
Spread over 40 acres of lush gardens, the resort provides an ideal Antiguan paradise experience. Rooms just meters from the beach allow easy access for morning swims or sunbathing.
Water-based adventures abound with diving, snorkeling, and free equipment loans for non-motorized sports. Tennis courts, rental bicycles, and a fully-equipped gym cater to land-based activities.
Numerous spa packages, including outdoor treatments with panoramic lagoon views, offer pampering experiences. With stunning views and excellent amenities, it’s no wonder Galley Bay is among the ‘top 100 resorts in the world’.
