Villa Goldy Antigua and Barbuda
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Goldy is a spacious, well-appointed two-bedroom villa on the island of Antigua, situated within the Tamarind Hills Resort’s boutique collection of villas and suites. The villa offers contemporary charm and comfort for up to four guests, with magnificent views of the sparkling Caribbean Sea and a private infinity-edged swimming pool.
The villa’s understated décor reflects the laidback character of the island, with nods to the natural colours and textures of Antigua. A dip in the gorgeous pool is the ideal way to begin your holiday, before stretching out on one of the comfortable sun loungers available on the terrace. The outside space also features a covered barbecue grill and a casual dining area, the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail at sunset with panoramic vistas of the ocean around you.
The ground floor’s sun-soaked terrace flows harmoniously into a bright and airy open-plan living space, where a comfortable seating area with a corner sofa and a flatscreen TV creates the ideal spot for everyone to unwind after a day spent exploring the wonders of the island. In this space, you will also find the villa’s well-equipped kitchen, with everything you need to cook up a memorable meal at home. The spacious kitchen includes a fitted breakfast bar, where you can relax with your morning cup of coffee, gazing out at the blue skies ahead.
Upstairs, two stylish bedrooms provide more stunning views of the ocean, instilling a sense of peace and tranquility at the start of each new day. The master bedroom features a king-size bed and boasts access to a private balcony with a lovely seating area, where you can lounge with a book whilst listening to the soothing sound of the waves lapping gently below. This bedroom also leads to an en-suite bathroom with a bath and a walk-in shower. The villa’s second bedroom, a charming twin room, also features access to its own balcony with panoramic views and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. The villa is air-conditioned throughout, with ceiling fans in place in both bedrooms, ensuring that your nights are cool and restful.
The relaxed and welcoming appeal of the villa’s interior space, along with dazzling views of Darkwood Beach and the turquoise ocean, makes this Antiguan gem a truly serene holiday setting that guests will wish to experience time and time again.The villa’s fantastic location on the southwest coast of the island encapsulates all of the wondrous natural beauty that Antigua has to offer. With tranquil bays, lush headlands, coral reefs and blue lagoons – not to mention the island’s 365 beaches, one for every day of the year – families and couples alike will be enchanted by this stunning Caribbean paradise.
The nation of Antigua and Barbuda is made up of two namesake sister islands, as well as several tiny islets. At just 281 km², Antigua is the nation’s largest island. This relaxed Caribbean getaway is easily accessible by car, so you will have plenty of opportunities to explore. However, with the silky white sands of Ffryes Beach and Darkwood Beach located just below the villa, you may find yourself tempted to stay close to Tamarind Hills and its fabulous facilities, including a restaurant and a saltwater swimming pool. More excellent restaurants can be found on nearby Jolly Harbour Marina, just a five-minute drive away.
Idyllic beaches are only the beginning of what vibrant, friendly Antigua has to offer. Only a twenty-minute drive away, the Antiguan capital of St. John’s is easily accessible. This colourful Caribbean port is home to an impressive cathedral and lively markets by the harbour every weekend. For a chance to learn more about the nation’s fascinating history, you can also visit the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, located in the old colonial Court House.
Another popular destination for locals and visitors alike is Nelson’s Dockyard National Park, one of five national parks in Antigua. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this eighteenth-century British naval dockyard is an area of great historical significance on the island, as well as a famous venue for maritime events and activities. Nelson’s Dockyard offers visitors plenty of fantastic trekking trails, with breathtaking sights along the way.
Consider visiting Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout with panoramic views, located within Nelson’s Dockyard. Shirley Heights is also the home of a well-established Sunday evening party, where visitors are invited to come and take part in the festivities. Listen to live Caribbean steel drum bands, try some of the local food and rum punch and take in another amazing sunset vista to remember.
Devil’s Bridge is another national park that is well worth a visit. The bridge itself is a natural arch composed of limestone rock, formed over the course of many thousands of years. With geysers and blowholes surrounding the bridge as the waves of the Atlantic crash against the rocks, this is a bracing adventure that will leave you in awe of the serene beaches you have just left behind.
With hiking trails, watersports, culinary delights, museums, exotic birds and rainforests, visitors will be left enchanted by Antigua’s breathtaking landscape and rich culture.At Excellence Luxury Villas, we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
