Five complimentary bars and lounges ensure there's always a place nearby to unwind with a drink like The Verandah's famous rum punch.
Guests of the hotel have access to two white sand beaches and four magnificent fresh water pools, including the main pool with a fountain in the center, one of the largest pools in Antigua. You can snorkel in the sea to see tropical fish and vibrant marine life, go kayaking, pedal boats and boards, and when it's time to relax a bit, lie back and enjoy the sun in the water hammock. Even beginners in water sports can feel comfortable trying something new — all non-motorized water activities are included in the price. Back on land, guests can play table tennis, billiards, beach volleyball and tennis. There's even an 18-hole mini golf course.
Children have fun at the free kids' club, where most of the activities are outdoors.
