Curtain Bluff is possibly Antigua's most elite hotel. Perched on a cliffside overlooking the Atlantic Ocean (and Montserat) it is flanked by two fine beaches. They have devised their own recipe for the perfect Caribbean holiday which has proven popular enough to attract 300 visitors/couples who have returned 10 times, 50 visitors/couples who have returned 20 times and 6 visitors/couples who have returned 30 times! They combine low tech peace and serene simplicity with gourmet food, a lashing of good taste and a dash of style. They also boast the island's finest wine cellar and the Managing Director, Rob Sherman, welcomes each guests personally as they arrive.

The hotel is only open 7 months of the year and spends the off season upgrading the complex. Last year they installed a new generator and increased the capacity of the reverse osmosis plant. They also put in a new telephone system that enables guests to receive messages via voice mail. Each summer the guest rooms are redecorated and last year the upstairs Deluxe Rooms have been given new mirrors and lighting. The calm bay beach now boasts ten additional umbrellas for shelter from the boundless Antiguan sunshine. The kitchen, which was extended a few years ago, has been further enhanced.

Added for last season, the freshwater swimming pool is greatly enjoyed by the hotel's guests. Marianne Fitt, exercise instructress, has added water aerobics to her repertoire (she also conducts aerobics classes and power walks). For the coming season, umbrellas and chairs are being placed at pool side for shade.

This season Ruedi Portmann, Executive Chef, will offer a very special dinner at the Beach Club each Sunday ( the main dining room will be closed that night). There will be a splendid selection of culinary delights and two marquee areas and delectable desserts to challenge even the resolute dieter.

Curtain Bluff is closely involved in Antigua Tennis Week and provides support for the educational needs of Old Road residents through the Old Road Fund.
