Vacation Resorts: Artisans and Travel in Mexico

A Caribbean Exclusive Resort On Antigua

A Caribbean Exclusive Resort on Antigua called St James Club just has to be a great place to take a vacation. The name itself sounds exclusive and infers luxury, and the reputation it has gathered over the last few years would probably support this feeling.

St James Club is very much in the top flight when you consider every Antigua All Inclusive resort, and it sits on a private 100 acre estate with super views and two white sand beaches.

Its situation is also enhanced by the fact that it is only five minutes away from English Harbour, Nelson?s Dockyard, and Shirley Heights, and the historical attractions these names imply.

As befits the name St James?s Club, there is a sociable club like atmosphere which draws guests back again and again, in this lush tropical playground, and there is glamour too, thanks to the numbers of visiting yachts.

For the active there are two white sand beaches, four swimming pools, which includes a family pool, and an adult only pool. There are a number of complimentary non motorised water sports including windsurfing and kayaking.

There are plenty of opportunities to play tennis with six tennis courts, four of which are floodlit, and for the fitness fanatic a fully equipped ?Body Shop? gymnasium. Golf is available but it is forty minutes away. For those who wish to be active but less frantically so can join in adventure walks.

St James Club is really devoted to its guests having a great time, and this could mean you don?t take exercise at all, but just relax with a good book, because you?ll have just as good a time doing nothing as someone will who has to do it all, and try everything, because it?s that sort of all inclusive resort.

The accommodation choices start at Club Rooms, with two double beds, and mostly a garden view, to premium Rooms overlooking the sea, to the newest Beachfront rooms which are beautifully laid out and equipped. Finally there are one bedroom Suites, and two bedroom Villas which even have a kitchen as they are located in the Club?s Village area..

Food and eating should play a large part in any Antigua Luxury Resort does not disappoint. The St James Club is especially good in this department, and compares very favourably with other Antigua All Inclusive Resorts. There are four restaurants for evening dining, either in the gardens, on the hillside, or right down by the waters edge.

You can go from the international buffets, and the superb a la carte menus of the Rainbow Garden which is St James Club?s main restaurant where you can have breakfast and lunch.

The Docksider is right on the edge of Mamora Bay, and is alfresco eating, only in the evenings, serving grilled favourites.

Piccolo Mondo is the hillside restaurant, open on selected evenings for dinner, where you will enjoy a fusion of Caribbean and Meditteranean Cuisine. If it is the more informal dining you require, then Coco?s Restaurant overlooking the Atlantic will undoubtedly be your choice.

There are more than enough casual daytime bars, and evening cocktail bars for the more sophisticated drinks. Indeed there is food and drink to suit everyone?s taste between the four restaurants and five bars.

For the family there is a Children?s Club for ages 2-12, which is great for parents as it gives them the freedom to enjoy what is a really nice resort, and the St James Antigua is certainly worth researching in depth if you are really looking for a Caribbean Exclusive Resort.

The Beaches Of Puerto Vallarta
The beaches in and around Puerto Vallarta may be the most diverse in Mexico. Located at the midpoint of Banderas Bay, the area surrounding Puerto Vallarta boasts 34 miles of coastline, 26 of which are sandy beaches. Within the city, the beaches are elegant and pristine, bordered by restaurants and resorts. Beaches to the north of the city tend to be longer and wider, with great opportunities for surfing and swimming. South of Puerto Vallarta, the mountains topple into the sea in places, creating placid coves and intimate sandy pockets.
