Jumby Bay

Lush tropical foliage and sandy beaches characterize this choice property.  Jumby Bay Island, a secluded hideaway accessible by boat from Antigua, is known worldwide for providing discerning travelers with world-class service and distinguished amenities.  The island features winding paths lined with wild orchids and botanical gardens, ideal for walking or biking.  The resort’s casual elegance blends smoothly into its natural environment.

Antigua’s V C Bird International Airport is serviced by six airlines including American, American Eagle, British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, BWIA, Continental, Air Canada,  LIAT and Caribbean Star.  Travelers entering Antigua require valid proof of citizenship.  Passports are recommended although an original birth certificate, along with a photo ID, is acceptable for American and Canadian citizens.  There is an additional charge for  departure tax from Antigua

After clearing customs, guests are greeted by Jumby Bay staff and escorted to taxis that take them the five-minute drive to the resort’s private ferry for a very brief (7 minutes) cruise to the exclusive island retreat

Jumby Bay Island, noted for a landscape lush with tropical flowers, trees and foliage, is a 300-acre private enclave just two miles north of Antigua.  A haven for naturalists, the island features the Pasture Bay Beach, on the island’s windward side, home to endangered species of turtles, rare birds and sheep.

The luxurious hideaway features 50 newly refurbished accommodations, including a 12-unit Mediterranean-style complex, 27 junior suite-style cottages and 11 villas.  The island boasts an array of two- and three- bedroom luxury villas and several spacious private manor houses for rent.

Except for an occasional birdsong and the whistling of trade winds, nothing disturbs the tranquility of Jumby Bay Island’s accommodations.
