Set along Antigua’s north coast on the edge of Jabberwock Beach, Hodges Bay Resort & Spa presents a more contemporary take on the Caribbean stay, balancing clean design with an easy connection to the sea.

The setting feels open and breezy, with the Atlantic trade winds moving through the property and the shoreline stretching out just beyond the main resort spaces.

The architecture is modern and low-rise, with a mix of suites and villas arranged across landscaped grounds to create a sense of space without feeling spread thin. A restrained palette, clean lines, and open terraces define the design, while the overall layout moves naturally between beachfront, pool areas, and quieter residential-style spaces.

Staying

The 79 rooms, suites, and villas are designed with a more residential feel, offering generous proportions and practical layouts. Features include air conditioning, coffee facilities, refrigerators, and en-suite bathrooms with rainfall showers, while higher categories introduce fully equipped kitchens, private plunge pools, and expansive terraces. The larger villas and penthouses feel notably more private, suited to longer stays or groups, with butler service adding an additional layer of ease.

Dining is spread across several venues, including White Sands, Black Sails, Pulse Café, and the Drift Pool Bar. Menus range from lighter daytime options to more structured evening dining, with an emphasis on variety rather than formality. The rooftop and poolside spaces bring a more social energy, particularly in the evenings, without dominating the overall atmosphere.

Experience

The resort offers a broad mix of spaces, from two pools and beachfront lounging areas to a private island experience at Prickly Pear. Watersports, yoga, and tennis provide activity during the day, while live music and evening events introduce a more lively edge compared to more traditional resorts on the island.

Wellness

The Bohemia Spa offers a full range of treatments alongside a steam room, sauna, and fitness centre, positioned to provide a quieter counterbalance to the more social areas of the resort.

Where

Located approximately 3 km from VC Bird International Airport and around 15 minutes from St John’s, the resort is one of the most accessible on the island, making it a practical option for shorter stays.
