Marriott Just Added a New Caribbean All-Inclusive Resort 

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - June 23, 2024

White sand, overwater bungalows, a sparkling spa and a lively adults-only all-inclusive experience. 

This is the newest Marriott all-inclusive in the Caribbean, and it’s the newest resort on the sought-after island of Antigua. 

Marriott has officially added the new Royalton CHIC Antigua to the fast-growing All-Inclusive by Marriott Bonvoy portfolio, part of the brand’s Autograph Collection. 

The new 235-room-and-suite resort is set about 15 minutes from Antigua’s VC Bird International Airport, with seven eateries, five bars, a destination app and the brand’s signature Diamond Club.

The latter includes custom amenities, including a personal butler. 

The new resort has a “unique blend of authenticity and elevation that aligns perfectly with our brand values in response to more travelers that look for this kind of seamless vacation,” said Alex Fix, Managing Director, All-Inclusive, Marriott International Caribbean and Latin America, in a statement provided to Caribbean Journal. 

Half a decade after it made its first foray in to the global all-inclusive market, Marriott now counts 33 different properties in its all-inclusive collection, the vast majority the result of its alliance with Royalton parent company Blue Diamond resorts — with 24 in total between them.

Are you planning an all-inclusive vacation to Antigua?

Marriott’s program means you can also use your Bonvoy points for stays at the Royalton CHIC. 

The addition of the new resort, which just opened its doors last month, only further solidifies Antigua’s position as arguably the Caribbean capital of luxury all-inclusive resorts, from celebrated boutique resorts like Hammock Cove to the new adults-only Verandah Antigua, among others. 

Antigua and Barbuda continues to see thriving visitor numbers, carving out a prominent niche as arguably the most romantic place in the Caribbean — and, with 365 beaches, a hard-to-top vacation destination.
