An Antigua classic on its own peninsula, with two beaches, one wedding a day and nearly everything included.
The Setting
Curtain Bluff sits on a peninsula at the southern tip of Antigua, near Old Road, about 25 km from the airport and 20 km from St John's. A rocky bluff splits the resort into two beaches, one calm and ideal for a swim or water sports, the other open to the ocean surf.
There are 72 rooms and suites across 20 acres, all with sea views, from beachfront rooms up to the Grace Bay and Morris Bay suites with their own plunge pools. The rate covers meals at two restaurants, house wine and bar drinks, tennis on four lit courts and most water sports. The resort closes over the summer, so check this season's opening dates with the team.
The day itself
Ceremonies happen on the sand at Sea Grape on Morris Bay beach, on the other beach, or at Bluff House, a private residence on the edge of the bluff with a big patio and wide sea views. Bluff House can host anything from two to 140 people. Receptions run in Tamarind or Sea Grape, and Sea Grape has room for a band or DJ and a dance floor.
The wedding package covers the officiant, the local licence, cake, flowers, a cocktail party after the ceremony and a private beach dinner for the two of you. Only one wedding is booked each day. Ask the team about the music curfew.
Where your guests stay
With 72 rooms, most weddings can sleep everyone on site, and a full buyout takes up to 140 guests. Wedding guests stay a minimum of three nights at group rates, with a longer minimum over Christmas and New Year.
Days fill easily with tennis, squash, sailing, waterskiing, scuba, yoga and a 5,000 sq ft spa, plus a kids' camp for ages 3 to 10. V.C. Bird International Airport is around 25 km away, and the rate includes a VIP meet and greet on arrival. Ask the team about transfers.
Hold your ceremony at Bluff House late in the afternoon, then walk everyone down to Sea Grape for dinner by the sand. Two settings, no coaches, and the bluff between them gives you the photographs.
