Keyonna Beach

Antigua has plenty of beach resorts, but none as tranquil as Keyonna Beach, which offers cottage accommodations complete with private plunge pools and beach access. The adults- and couples-only all-inclusive is ideal for those looking for a relaxing beach retreat away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

What You Need to Know 

The Look of Keyonna Beach 

Just steps from the ocean, Keyonna Beach is a stunning property that highlights traditional Caribbean architecture across its 40 private cottages. These feature dark wood beams across a vaulted ceiling, dark wood floors, and dark wood furniture offset by crisp white linens and cushions, as well as pops of teal. Outside, private decks have two lounge chairs, a plunge pool, and direct access to the beach — as well as private outdoor showers flanked by palm trees. 

The Vibe at Keyonna Beach 

The property feels like a serene retreat, especially compared to the many family-friendly spots that dot the island. Common spaces, like the lounge, spa, and restaurant, are all clustered together in one central area, alongside a shared pool.

Since the rate at the resort is all-inclusive, guests dine in the same restaurant for every meal — but they don't mind, because Keyonna Beach is known for its farm-to-table dining that's focused on sustainable practices and highlights local farmers and fishermen (think coconut-crusted mahi-mahi and blackened tuna with vegetable couscous). Before or after meals, the beach, while public, often feels private with just a smattering of guests lounging on covered day beds or taking a dip in the ocean.

Who Will Love Keyonna Beach 

Couples looking for a romantic getaway where nearly everything is included in the cost will love staying at Keyonna Beach.
