Luxury Beach
Galley Bay's beautiful beach boasts the characteristic white sands and turquoise waters of stunning Antigua. Stroll barefoot along the shore, soak up the sunshine on your luxurious sun lounger, or head out onto the Caribbean Sea with a range of watersports.
All Inclusive
At Galley Bay, your luxury all-inclusive package includes daily breakfast, lunch, dinner, afternoon tea and snacks throughout the day. Unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are included by the glass - such as coffee, juice, soft drinks, wine, beer, spirits and cocktails, all of which can be enjoyed at numerous bars and restaurants. Non-motorised watersports are also included alongside instruction, as well as an array of nightly activities including Caribbean barbecues and movie nights on the beach. Other complimentary activities range from tropical bird watching, bicycle borrowing and tours of the on-site vegetable garden, to cooking demonstrations, lagoon fishing and fitness classes.
Spa Breaks
Indulge Spa offers a range of therapeutic massages, cutting-edge reflexology, beauty treatments and hair care, all available in indoor and outdoor treatment cabanas, as well as an open-air relaxation pod. The spa is complete with a sun deck and splash pool, surrounded by tranquil gardens and gentle island breezes. A fully-equipped fitness centre is also available. What's more, the sea-facing yoga pavilion is the perfect place to enjoy classes with expert instructors. Yoga retreats are held annually, with a great 2019 event being held by Nike yoga ambassador, Jessica Skye.
Hotel Experiences
The resort's focus on wellness expands beyond just the incredible spa and yoga offerings. floatfit® is a unique workout concept during which you float on a mat in the pool, completing a challenging, HIIT fitness class. Working out the mind, a bespoke colouring book has been created for the resort by illustrator Adam Stower and psychotherapist Dr. Nichole Gehl. Linked to reducing stress and anxiety, the wonderful 'Ink and Drink' sunset sessions are a great chance to unwind with colouring and a cocktail. The books are subject to availability. Ensuring that the 'farm-to-table' food served at Galley Bay is completely organic, the resort houses its very own herb and vegetable garden. Tours of this lovely space are held weekly.
