Galley Bay is an all-inclusive beachfront hideaway created for
discerning travelers in search of a
refined, yet unpretentious escape. It
enjoys a secluded setting amidst forty-acres of lush, tropical
gardens between a bird sanctuary lagoon
and a 3/4 mile beach on the undeveloped west coast of
Antigua. Great care has been taken to
ensure the resort not only compliments, but also takes full advantage
of these untouched natural surroundings. Thatch, bamboo, and
terracotta combine to
establish an ambience of elegant rusticity
in the alfresco public areas, whilst a picturesque wooden
deck ensures maximum exposure to the ocean
views. There is little disruption from the outside world
as access to the resort is via a wooden
bridge traversing the bird sanctuary. The 69-guest rooms are
discreetly tucked away amidst the palms, more than three-quarters of
them lying directly on the white sand beach and boasting breathtaking
views of the Caribbean Sea- the comfortable Superior and
Deluxe Rooms all feature private terraces
or balconies, whilst sunken living rooms, floor-to-ceiling
windows and expansive bathrooms with
deep-soaking tubs distinguish the Premium Suites.
Home-from-home comforts throughout include
air conditioning, ceiling fans, satellite TVs, mini-
refrigerators and coffee makers. Set just
behind close to the bird sanctuary is the unique Gauguin
cottages with their own individual splash
pools. Designed as semi-private sanctuaries for couples,
each one consists of two thatched-roof
rondovals (one a bedroom and the other a bathroom/dressing room), as
well as splash pools with paved sundecks, many of them overlooking the
lagoon. Woven
bamboo ceilings, uneven whitewashed walls
and cool terracotta tiling establish their charming
Caribbean theme, whilst the beach is no more than fifty-yards away.
In keeping with Galley Bay's tranquil,
escapist ambience, recreational activities tend to be of a
relaxing nature and guests are generally
quite content to sunbathe on the sands or around the
landscaped swimming pool. Those in the
mood for a little action, however, can take advantage of the
championship tennis court, air-conditioned fitness room or
non-motorized watersports, such as windsurfing, sailing, snorkeling
and kayaking. Massages are also available on-site, scuba-diving can
be arranged nearby, whilst golf on two
18-hole golf courses are less than 30-minutes drive away.
Dining is also an important part of any
stay at Galley Bay, the European Executive Chef specializing
in Euro-Caribbean cuisine that makes the
most of fresh local produce and seafood. Guests seeking
a change from the a la carte fine dining
experience of The Sea Grape can enjoy the grilled fare of the
more intimate Gauguin restaurant, both
dining venues alfresco and just steps from the Caribbean Sea.
Afternoon tea, evening hors d'oeuvres, live entertainment, cocktail
parties and Caribbean barbecues
all contribute to the hotels sociable, tropical ambience, whilst the
personal service from the staff contributes to its exceptionally high
repeat-guest quota.
