In Antigua, the Perfect Spa Vacation at These All-Inclusive Resorts

By: Guy Britton - October 5, 2024

It’s that extra degree of stress relief. Of pampering. Of self-care. Caribbean vacations are naturally relaxing. But the right wellness focus can make a traditional Caribbean getaway transformative.

That’s where the island of Antigua comes in, with its enviable collection of top resorts, many with a focus on delivering authentic, meaningful wellness experiences. 

But the leader is clearly the Tranquility Body and Soul Spa, Elite Island Resorts’ signature spa brand which has four wellness centers at resorts across the island: Hammock Cove, Pineapple Beach Club, The Verandah Antigua and the Galley Bay Resort and Spa. 

Every one is set in either a lush or oceanfront location, with expert therapists and treatments you won’t find anywhere else.

The spas are “designed to pamper and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul,” the resort tells Caribbean Journal. 

There’s everything from the signature Tranquility Spa well-being massage, which includes a mix of Swedish massage, pro-circulation techniques and an emphasis on the easing of tension. 

Or you can go for a unique “four handed massage,” which creates the feeling of two full body massages “at the same time.”

There’s also an “Indian Head Massage,” an ancient holistic therapy; or even a sports massage, perfect for a day spent playing pickleball at the resorts’ world-class facilities. 

It’s hard to find all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean with spas at this level — but at Tranquility spas, you’re getting the best of both worlds. 

You can learn more at Elite Island Resorts.
