Antigua The House is located on the sunset side of the island and is perfectly positioned to give access to all of the best that Antigua has to offer. The airport is only 10 minutes’ drive away as are a plethora of delicious restaurants, some stunning beaches, and the best super market on the island. For those who want some retail therapy while soaking up the sun, the capital St Johns is only 15 minutes’ by car. Antigua is called the “Heart of the Caribbean” and some of the area’s best beaches, 365 in total, one for each day of the year! The people are incredibly friendly and welcoming and there is lots to sea and do including all manner of water sports, golf, tennis cycling as well as many adventure activities such as zip lining through the rain forest, deep sea fishing, scuba diving, swimming with sting rays, sailing or our recommendation: just relaxing on the beach with a good book and a cold drink.
