Curtain Bluff is just under 40 minutes away from the V. C. Bird International Airport in Antigua. Nestled on a rocky peninsula on Antigua’s south side, it’s just a short drive from some of Antigua’s best sights, including Nelson’s Dockyard and Shirley Heights.
Although you could easily stay on property for a whole week and not get bored, it’s worth getting out to explore Antigua. We recommend renting a car at the airport; the well-paved roads near Curtain Bluff make driving around the island a manageable adventure.
When you drive towards Curtain Bluff from the airport, you’ll crest a hill and catch an amazing view of waves crashing onto a beach, with hotel rooms just steps from the sand. If you’ve been looking at photos of Curtain Bluff in anticipation of your stay, you’ll realize that’s where you’re headed, and the excitement mounts before you even get to the hotel gates.
The kid-focused activities are all centered around the second, calm beach on the properties’ other side. That’s where you’ll find the dive shop, kayaks, paddle boats, and more. The pool, while not a focal point of the property, sits behind the beach with lots of shade.
Cee Bee Kids Camp is just a short walk from the beach and pool. We love that the kids’ club is hosted in a covered outdoor structure, with board games, crafts, a TV, and more, so you won’t be leaving your kids indoors when you want a break. For the littles, there’s a shady playground right next to the kids’ club area. And for older kids, a daily fun activity schedule includes everything from handicraft to crab races, Hobie Cat sailing to waterskiing – enough to keep even the most active kids busy all day.
In-room babysitting is also available
As for the rooms, the decor is seashore chic, with printed patterned flooring, bright blue and green accents, and modern Caribbean paintings. There isn’t a mediocre room in the hotel. You can choose to stay in the beachfront junior suites, steps from the surfing beach, or in a room with a sweeping view up on the bluff (kids 6 and up only in bluff rooms).
Curtain Bluff has two restaurants for all-inclusive dining. Breakfast and dinner are served at the Tamarind Tree off the lobby, which surrounds a courtyard with tamarind trees growing in the middle (awesome for antsy kids to run around). The beachfront Sea Grape serves a casual buffet lunch on the beach but is open a few nights a week for dinner as well, serving Italian-Antiguan Make sure not to miss their impressive wine cellar with extensive collection, expertly picked from across the world by their resident sommelier.
If your kids get hungry before dinner hour, the resort is happy to provide kids’ dinner early on request, whether in the dining room or in-room
Parents should definitely head to the spa for some pampering – and leave extra time just to relax there because the view is stunning. Take fitness classes like yoga and pilates. Caribbean cooking and wine tasting classes are also offered.
Don’t miss: The weekly Wednesday night cocktail party at the Owner’s Residence
