Royalton CHIC to make Antigua debut with overwater restaurant

With its recent addition to the Blue Diamond Resorts portfolio, Royalton CHIC Antigua is set to debut and welcome guests to the leeward island, where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean, in early April 2024.

Designed exclusively for adults, the beachfront resort is set on the northwest coast of Antigua and is now available for bookings.

Located 20 minutes from VC Bird International Airport along Dickinson Bay Beach, Royalton CHIC Antigua will unfold as a “tropical hotspot for vibrant couples, groups of friends and energetic solo travellers,” the brand says.

“The upcoming opening of Royalton CHIC Antigua marks a significant milestone in the West Indies and for Blue Diamond Resorts. This unique concept of all-inclusive hospitality has proven to be a success, and introducing it to Antigua is a perfect match. This move enhances the destination's positioning for international travellers seeking vibrant experiences,” said Jordi Pelfort, president, Blue Diamond Resorts, in a release.

“As always, exceptional service and top-notch experiences are the pillars of rewarding hospitality, and we anticipate that guests will be able to embrace plenty of both at our newest Royalton CHIC Resort in Antigua.”

Royalton CHIC Antigua will feature 235 stylish rooms and suites, each with a balcony or terrace for ocean and sunset views, and modern décor in keeping with sister Royalton CHIC Resorts in Punta Cana and Cancun.

Lush details will include Royalton’s signature DreamBed, rain shower and All-In Connectivity amenities; 24/7 room service featuring the picks from the menus of onsite dining outlets, creating the perfect setting for guests to linger in after active, energetic days.

For passionate foodies, introducing the first overwater restaurant of its kind in the region, Pescari is driven by a Diningtainment concept.

This restaurant will elevate dining experiences with ocean views, sunsets and a stylish atmosphere filled up with effervescent energy and unparalleled vibe.

Other dining and drinking destinations will be available on site, with seven restaurants, five bars, and an on-site rum shop conceived for the property including an authentic steakhouse, menus highlighted by Mediterranean and Italian cuisines, Caribbean flavours and mixology.

Guests looking to elevate their stay at Royalton CHIC Antigua can do so via the Diamond Club room category, which offers butler services, personalized check-in and check-out, private by the pools and on the beach, and in-room amenities.

Resort offerings will also include swimming pools, beach club, an entertainment plaza with a theatre for live music and more, an indulgent spa with wellness for the body, mind, and spirit, including pampering treatments and a hydrotherapy circuit (at additional cost).

To complement personal wellness journeys, a selection of modern equipment at the resort’s fitness center will offer a program of instructor-led activities to aid guests in maintaining and even surpassing their fitness goals including Paddle Board, Sunset Yoga, and Beach Bootcamp.
