The holiday season is right around the corner with all of its festivities, decorations, presents, delectable treats, and cold, snowy weather. But, with the coming of the holiday season, also comes the stresses of the seemingly unending preparations for all the celebrations. This year may be the year to try something different. Plan a vacation to The Inn at English Harbour, which isn’t raising its rates during the busy holiday travel season, and let someone else take care of the cooking, cleaning, and other chores so you can rest, relax and savor the holidays.
Enjoy a range of soothing, decadent massages at the hands of The Inn’s Japanese trained masseuse. The newly built spa, located in The Inn’s Club House alongside the tennis courts, offers Swedish, Deep Tissue, Aromatherapy (which combines Shiatsu, Lymphatic and Swedish techniques), Warm Stone Therapy and couples’ version massages of the best. The adjacent beauty room offers rejuvenating facials, including Classic European and The Inn’s Signature Facial, along with mani-pedis, waxing, and every kind of hair treatment. The spa adjoins the resort’s cozy Library / English Afternoon Tea Lounge, appointed with supremely comfortable, cushioned cane furniture.
The holiday season is known for its fabulous fare, with succulent turkey or sweet ham, creamy mashed potatoes, crisp salads and, of course, rich desserts. But, your dining experience at The Inn’s highly acclaimed Terrace Restaurant promises to be a culinary experience like no other. The restaurant has been newly refurbished to satisfy the regal demands of English Silver Service. New accoutrements include sterling silver-plated cutlery, gleaming dishware, new Jacquard table linen and chair covers, subtle warm lighting and formal drapery. Guests savor the refined Italian creations of Executive Chef Fred Cougnon, who has spent two months abroad discovering Italy’s newest secrets and perfecting his culinary skills.
Or, perhaps your relaxed mood requires a more casual venue? Try the Reef Restaurant and Beach Bar. Here you can enjoy stunning ocean views while listening to a Cuban Band or piano music. The open-air pavilion-style venue has been newly remodeled with marble tile flooring and expanded into a more spacious dining and event space. Offering breakfast and lunch, along with a variety of Caribbean and international cocktails, the festive locale is also available to host special event dinners.
While at The Inn, stop in at the regularly scheduled “Movie Night” to enjoy the guilty pleasure of pop culture infusion. Or, pick up a few presents at The Inn’s new Boutique & Gift Shop, which resides near the beach’s small private jetty, selling designer swimwear, souvenir T‐shirts and handcrafted jewelry custom made for The Inn. Sneak in some exercise at the resort’s gym, newly upgraded and modernized with air conditioning. If you’re ready for a bit of sightseeing, stop by to see the historic, bustling town of English Harbour, just two minutes away via water taxi. English Harbour, Antigua's graceful and evocative historic district, is focused on fifteen square miles of Nelson's Dockyard National Park. With shops, restaurants, clubs, nature paths, historic sites, a dock and more, there’s something for everyone to do.
