STYLISH BEACHFRONT BOUTIQUE HOTEL
The Inn has been for many years a favorite retreat for many clients coming to Antigua who enjoy the old fashioned charm that this hotel has to offer. That charm still remains and a major renovation program, carried out by the Inn’s Italian owners, has given the hotel a stylish new look. Guests here can enjoy the most breathtaking views of English Harbour - one of the most picturesque locations in Antigua.
Upgrades have brought a fresh face to nearly every storied corner of the colonial-style resort, from all 28 guestrooms and suites to the dining venues and grounds, and have introduced an all-new spa facility and upscale boutique. Reclining across 19 acres of gently-sloping wooded headlands near the entrance to Lord Nelson’s legendary harbour, The Inn’s private white-sand beach fronts beautiful hillside gardens for a setting of supreme serenity. Yet just two minutes by water taxi reside the restaurants and nightlife of bustling English Harbour. Now more than ever, the historic charm of the resort’s colonial design converges harmoniously with modern-age conveniences and the natural splendor of Antigua to present a uniquely 21st-century take on paradise.

The Inn is perfectly positioned on a beautiful wooded headland, which stands guard to the entrance of historic English Harbour.
English Harbour, one of the most delightful and picturesque parts of Antigua, is packed with historic legend, and true natural beauty. Marked by the passage of Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson, English Harbour provides an alluring blend of history and charm, relaxed and natural atmosphere, in one of the most unique locations in the West Indies.
Antigua, “the Heart of the Caribbean”, so called because of its geographic location, offers direct airline service from major North American and European cities, as well as flights to and from most Caribbean Islands. By car, the hotel is approximately 18 Km from St. John’s and 20 Km from the international airport.
