#DARKWOOD BEACH ANTIGUA WINDOWS#

Windows and doors are fitted with impact resistant glass designed to withstand all tropical weather conditions. Lakeside is constructed using highly proven and superior materials that offer a low maintenance home with the best protection against infestation, fire damage, high winds and seismic activity. The villa is just a few minutes drive from Jolly Harbour, bars, restaurants, shops and other beaches.

Lakeside is one of two villas sharing a fully landscaped tropical garden of 1/3 acre with large swimming pool and sun deck area. Darkwood is an idyllic and very scenic beach, an island favourite and certainly one of the most photographed beaches in the Caribbean. The valley is peaceful and serene and surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks. Lakeside is a new 3-bedroom villa at The Palms, set on the banks of the Darkwood Lake in a delightful valley location with valley views over Darkwood Beach. They are not obnoxious, but their groups can be large.Lakeside The Palms, Darkwood Beach Antigua New 3 Bedroom Detached Villa with Shared Pool & Garden

If you like to have a nice and quiet time, I would recommend avoiding weekends because many locals come here and have parties. Umbrella & 2 beach chairs were $10 (comparing to $20 at many other beaches), but you are expected to get something at the restaurant (at least some drinks). The food was pretty good (a bit slow) and their washroom was clean enough (not super clean and only one of 3 was working).ĥ. We went there 3 times during our stay, and 2 times out of 3 were not as clear as one day, but still beautiful.Ĥ. You may be able to say this for any beach, but it's hard to say how clear water can be depending on the weather and wind.

Beautiful fine white sand (this is true to pretty much all Antigua beaches) and water was crystal clear when calm. Not as busy as other beaches as there is not much establishment around there.Ĥ. We could see some colourful fish and huge sea urchin there (don't expect a lot, but it was good enough for us).ģ. Snorkeling was great for not-so-good-swimmers because coral was only a few feet away from the beach. The boys really enjoyed the big inflatable playground ($15 USD - we were told or asked how long it was for, but the boys ended up playing for about 1.5 hrs).Ģ. This beach is not the one of the most 'established' beaches in Antigua from the facility perspective, but had everything we wanted as a family.ġ. The bus runs every 30 minutes or so and we did see the bus on our return back. I think the taxi trip is normally $8 each way. Since it was raining harder when we left and we didn't want to walk from the bus station back to the port, we took a taxi back. It was the best rum drink we had all week and was $7 each. We had a rum punch & rum which also had nutmeg, bitters and lime juice. The blow up play structure looked like lots of fun but no one used it while we were there. We did not go into the water as the surf was somewhat rough due to the weather. They are under a wooden structure so when it was raining it really didn't bother us much. When we arrived we rented two lounge chairs for $10. As it was a island bus residents from Antigua got in and out of the bus along the way. My friend, 2 ladies from the cruise ship and I walked down to the bus station and paid $1.50 each to take bus 22 (which is a van) to Darkwood Beach. In theory, Antigua does not get much rain.
