THE HOTEL
Set on a 300-acre private Caribbean island two miles off the coast of Antigua, Jumby Bay is a superb resort - exclusive and serene. Thanks to its setting, Jumby Bay is a naturalist's paradise, noted for its lush landscape, stately palm trees and three superb, white sand beaches. Criss-crossing, winding paths, enjoyed on foot or by bike, are lined with wild orchids, whilst the endangered Hawksbill turtle has made its home on Pasture Bay Beach.
The resort's 40 beautifully refurbished rooms, suites and luxury vacation villas spread across nearly a third of the island, to ensure every room has the ambiance of a secluded hideaway. Cool, neutral colours abound, counterpointed by luxurious furnishings, tasteful furniture and outdoor spaces surrounded by lush greenery. The accommodation exudes a relaxed charm that is the signature of this resort.
Accommodation entails 40 beautifully refurbished rooms and suites, 12 villas and a collection of impressive estate homes spread across nearly a third of the island's 300-acres. All rooms, villas and 'homes' embody the style of the island combining colonial furniture with soothing palettes of beige and cream. Relaxation comes naturally in sitting areas with oversized pillows, private verandahs set with elegant teak furnishings and spacious bathrooms.
