Romance burns most passionately under the dazzle of a Caribbean sun. Add the colonial charm of Antigua’s Inn at English Harbour -- made even more beguiling with a $1.5 million and The Inn’s Romantic Notions promotion – and couples are destined for a blissful communion.
Nineteen acres of wooded headland provide a backdrop of bewitching serenity, while the two-minute proximity to the nightlife of bustling English Harbour makes The Inn a romance destination both idyllic and chic. Opt for supreme privacy and early-morning swims with a beachfront cabana, or for the sultry beauty of hillside gardens and an easy stroll to The Inn’s cooling infinity-edge pool. Book at least a four-night stay from now through Aug. 31, 2010, and then add in the Romantic Notions promotion, to receive:
- A complimentary three-course dinner for two at the Terrace Restaurant;
- A 60-minute couples massage at the resort’s spa;
- A private veranda or terrace with your room;
- Upscale amenities including iPod station, flat-screen televisions, and wireless internet access;
- Complimentary use of the fitness centre;
- Complimentary use of equipment for tennis, kayaking and snorkeling; and
- A room upgrade, if available. Lounge all day in the heavenly cloud of a queen-sized bed dressed with floating canopy and sumptuous padded headboard, or seclude like a princess bride and her groom behind the voile drapery of a king-sized mahogany four-poster. Emerging to sample the sea air’s refreshing brine, your feet will grace floors of Italian Brera marble or supple polished mahogany, and your dangling robe will brush handsome colonial-era antiques as you approach the open-sea views afforded by your spacious verandah or private balcony. Up-to-date bathrooms deliver the indispensable conveniences of modern times, as do a trove of new in-room amenities such as flat screen televisions, iPod docking stations, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi internet access.
Come evening, couples will experience the aphrodisiacal wonders of food-sharing. The Inn’s highly acclaimed Terrace Restaurant intensifies the headiness with its rustic, stone-walled setting, candlelit tables beneath a star-filled sky, and the posh flair of English Silver Service. Or, for a more casual dining experience, visit the Reef Restaurant and Beach Bar.
Room rates start at $600 per night. For more information about The Inn at English Harbour, visit www.theinn.ag or, to make a reservation or find more information about the Romantic Notions package, call +1 (268) 460-1014.
