Overview

This beautifully designed four-bedroom beach home offers enhanced privacy along a secluded stretch of the shoreline centered around a lush oasis of tropical gardens featuring over 10,000 plants and 200 trees that provide a sense of nature, while organically protecting guest privacy.

Textures of natural elements infused with Caribbean light blend features like cooling travertine stone floors, Caribbean wood and special pebble-stone-floors beckoning guests to relax and enjoy the barefoot elegance of this ultimate home-away experience from the moment they enter. Calabash offers plenty of tranquil living spaces from a shaded loggia for dining al fresco, to a comfortably carefree living room, to a quiet stretch of beach just steps away from the pool, all perfectly suited for relaxing moments and memories. Guests retire to four beach-chic bedrooms including two Master Suites, a pool suite and a garden suite, each offering super-king beds, air conditioning and fans, and unique indoor and outdoor baths. The interior design reflects the beach and the cooling colors of the Caribbean and you will find “driftwood-like” furniture surfaces in all rooms, reflecting and reminding you that Calabash wants to bring to you a very unique, light and friendly natural touch every day.

There is no shortage of sophistication including a fully equipped kitchen and bar, designed with a vintage feel in mind, but with modern high-touch equipment. Those that cannot leave the internet behind, will enjoy a dedicated cutting-edge wireless internet system which covers the entire property, and interfaces with a wireless high-fidelity sound system and video streaming system accessible via a large TV screen in the living room or individual iPads usable anywhere on the property.

The magnificent oceanfront heated infinity pool provides magical views of Calabash and Jumby Bay Beaches. Set just above sea-level the pool and terrace area seems to float out to the sea, with a wooden sunset deck designed to rest, just above the tide. The sense of connection to the water continues as the pool melds into the Caribbean blue, but also encourages guests of Calabash to enjoy the dramatic nightly display of Antigua’s signature sunset hues.

A friendly and highly educated team is on-hand at Calabash, including a personal chef, house supervisor and butler, housekeeper, and gardener, all ready to cater to guests’ every need. Calabash is just steps away from Jumby Bay beach and a minute stroll from resort restaurants, bars and other island amenities.

Jumby Bay

Nestled on a 300-acre private Caribbean island two miles from Antigua, Jumby Bay is a secluded haven filled with lush landscapes, stately palm trees and three stunning white sand beaches. After touching down in Antigua, guest are whisked away on a short and scenic private cruise to Jumby Bay Island, making it one of the most desirable and exclusive private retreats in the Caribbean.

Surrounded by the white sand beaches and tropical foliage native to Antigua, Jumby Bay Island, is a 300-acre private enclave noted for its luxury and world-class service. This exclusive Caribbean resort offers splendid accommodations, exquisite restaurants, a sensational spa and world-renowned facilities to showcase both the beauty of nature and the tradition of elegance that has long graced the private island.

Among discerning travelers, Jumby Bay Island is known as the jewel in the crown of Caribbean resorts. The island encapsulates everything about a fantasy hideaway, with secluded sun-kissed beaches lapped by pristine turquoise waters. And for every guest there is a journey of experiences waiting to be discovered — a private beachside picnic; snorkeling the nearby coral-fringed islands; a barefoot walk across our long golden sand bar, suspended in the open sea. From the action-packed to the serene, Jumby Bay is a kaleidoscope of magical moments.

With no commercial traffic, and only guests of the resort and the island residences permitted on this island, there is no safer private retreat in the Caribbean than Jumby Bay Island. This 300 acre private enclave offers families the space and freedom to explore individually or in groups like our Jumby Explorers children's club. Regardless of age group there are activities for all to truly enjoy!
