Hills of Antigua is a bright two-bedroom villa within a scenic gated resort at Tamarind Hills, on Antigua's calm west coast between the beaches of Darkwood and Ffryes. Arranged over two floors and built around its view, the villa's real showpiece is a private saltwater infinity pool that runs to the edge of the terrace and looks straight out over the Caribbean Sea. Inside, an open-plan living and dining room and a full kitchen with a breakfast bar all open to the water, while the two en-suite bedrooms, one with a king bed, one twin, each have their own private balcony and wake to the sea. It sleeps four, which makes it a natural fit for two couples or a small family who want a private, view-led base without the scale of a large villa. Guests also have the run of the resort, a beach club, a gym, a spa, a bar and a beachfront restaurant, with a white-sand beach just below. Jolly Harbour, with its shops and restaurants, is a short drive, and the wider island is easy to explore. V. C. Bird International Airport is around a 35 to 40 minute drive.

Best time to visit

winter
25C to 29Cdec · jan · feb
peak crowdpremium value

The December to April dry season brings the warmest, driest weather and the calmest, clearest water off Ffryes and Darkwood.

The dry season from December to April is the classic time to visit, with warm, sunny days, gentle trade winds and calm, clear water in the bay. May and early summer stay bright and quieter. June to November is the Atlantic hurricane season, hotter and more humid with the odd heavy shower, though the sheltered west coast makes an easy time to relax by the pool.

Why we chose it

We chose it for the view and the ease. The saltwater infinity pool and the sea views from every room would headline a much larger house, and the two-floor layout gives the pair of bedrooms a little separation. For two couples or a small family it is just right, private and low-key, yet backed by a full resort with a beach club, spa, gym and restaurants a short stroll away. Sitting between Darkwood and Ffryes, two of Antigua's finest beaches, and a short drive from Jolly Harbour, it is a smart, view-led base that makes the most of a beautiful stretch of coast.

01The Architecture

The villa is one of a cluster of homes stepping down the hillside of a gated resort, positioned so that the main living level and the pool terrace take in the full sweep of the bay. The style is contemporary Caribbean: crisp white walls, dark timber beams, deep roof overhangs for shade and glass balustrades that keep the outlook open.…

02The Interior

Inside, the mood is light, crisp and contemporary. Pale sofas and soft neutrals sit against white walls, with woven pendants, sea-toned art and vaulted timber ceilings adding warmth. The open-plan living and dining room flows onto the terrace so the sea is always in view, and the full kitchen has a timber-topped island and breakfast bar for cooking or casual…

03The Outdoor

The outdoors is the heart of Hills of Antigua. The private saltwater infinity pool runs along the terrace, its edge merging with the sea, with sun loungers and a daybed set out to catch the sun and the breeze, and a barbecue for sunset dinners. A circular screened daybed makes a private spot to laze with the view, and the…
