Long Bay Holidays

Designed to reflect its informal Caribbean setting, Grand Pineapple enjoys a prime beachfront location on the undeveloped north-east coast of Antigua. Amidst the breathtaking crescent-shaped Long Bay, the resorts 25-acres of beautiful tropical gardens lead down to 1,600 feet of white sand beach. Three-quarters of the accommodations boast ocean views, while the restaurants, bars and swimming pools are just steps from the sand.

Relaxation on the beach or around one of the swimming pools is usually the daytime theme here, and a sociable ambience prevails in the evenings, cocktails in the ocean front bar followed by dinner in one of three enticing restaurants and of course the nightclub waits to take you into the small hours.
