Official Description (provided by the hotel):: The intimate, privately-owned Hermitage Bay is comprised of just 25 luxury cottages so that "even at its busiest, the place seems remote and quaint." Whether visiting for the first time or returning as a friend, you'll enjoy a sort of members-only exclusivity and "sensation of belonging" as if the hotel was built for a select few. Tucked into a beautiful bay in one of the most secluded corners of Antigua, it is perfect for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.Spanning 16 acres of lush tropical gardens, our eco-chic, luxury hotel provides all the comforts of a 5 star resort without compromising the natural habitat that thrives around it. Our open-air facilities, extensive beach and detached rooms allow you to unwind in isolated luxury. Each of the 8 beach cottages features a spacious split level lounge and patio, while the large wrap-around decks and private plunge pools of the 17 hillside pool suites afford the added luxury of soaking up the Caribbean sun from the privacy of your own sun bathing deck. Whether enjoying lunch by the pool, dining in the beachfront restaurant, or having breakfast in bed, every meal feels privately catered. The menus change daily and feature freshly squeezed local juices, locally grown produce, and organic ingredients. At Hermitage Bay, all dishes are prepared to order, special requests are encouraged, and we are always happy to help with dietary requirements. ... more less

“Peaceful paradise”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

I cannot recommend Hermitage Bay enough - other reviewers have described the views and environment, so I'd just mention that everything is absolutely as described and pictured on this and Hermitage Bay's own website - yes, it is THAT beautiful, and it completely fulfilled my expectations of a quiet break but with every luxury you could wish for. I loved... More

We are currently staying in a hillside pool suite ( number 32) and wanted to write about our amazing stay.

“Almost Perfect, but not alot you could do about it!”

Reviewed 28 April 2013

We stayed in the suite (38) with the "blue tarp" over it referenced in an earlier review. Our first time here was sadly diminished by unexpected heavy rains that made hours in the sun impossible, the use of the plunge pool undesirable and to wake up with the floor of the bathroom flooded at 3AM really not part of the...

Dear Dbcb711 Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that the enjoyment of your stay was diminished by the days of heavy rain and a leaking roof. As you are no doubt aware, the buildings are all made of wood and we use wood shingles (walaba from Guyana) on the roof. Prior to your stay we had had an... More

“Intimate hotel in need of some maintenance”

Reviewed 25 April 2013

We sought a small luxury hotel in an isolated location to celebrate a landmark birthday. Hermitage Bay definitely fits that definition. We spent a very relaxing week and enjoyed sunshine, great food and seclusion from the outside world. The villas are very, very nice and the staff is amazing (the staff makes the place. They are a warm, engaging group... More

“Spoilt rotten!”

Perfection is not possible but this came pretty close. The setting is fantastic, the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and the food was excellent. You get waited on hand and foot from the time you arrive nothing is too much trouble. The food was of an excellent quality with plenty of choice including vegetarian for my partner. We had... More

We had a fabulous week at this resort and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, romantic place to unwind. It was beautiful and the staff were fabulous: their discretion and attention to every detail were much-appreciated. We ventured off the resort a few times to explore the island both on sea and on land and found the... More

First of all, I would like to warn the people who are planning to go to this place: Do not eat fish there!!! And check what is CIGUATERA in the internet before. Both me and my husband have had a horrible food poisoning in this place which is called ciguatera. The problem is that the ciguatoxine damages the nerves and... More

“Villa hideaway on the beach”

Reviewed 9 April 2013

The hermitage bay resort is small and intimate. Only 50 villas scattered on a tropical green hillside above a white shell-sand beach. The hillside villas have a great view and the feel of privacy and seclusion, with a touch of sugar plantation and rustic cottage designs. However, rest assured there are most conveniences and modernity included so you are not... More
