Half Moon Bay Antigua

On one of the most perfect beaches in the world, Half Moon Ba s the Rosewood Residences.
With a personalised design inspired by local culture, history and tropical landscape, the fully serviced and
furnished Residences redefine uber-luxury in the Caribbean

T

he design ideal for a villa in the
Caribbean is to showcase the
pristine beauty of a coastal paradise
with cosmopolitan elegance and
sensitivity. In this mission, Half Moon Bay
Antigua, tucked into the south-east of the
island, promises the-scale fulfilment in
redefining private luxury.
A year-round destination with an average
temperature of 27°C, Antigua epitomises
the regalvanised energy of the Caribbean
property scene. A stellar opportunity presents
itself in the sophisticated form of a limited
collection of Rosewood Residences, which
will nestle behind an exceptional 3,200ft
crescent of white coral sand cradling crystal-
clear water on the same site as the Rosewood
Half Moon Bay hotel (comprising 47 pavilion-
style villas) and its luxury amenities. With
construction due to start in 2020, Half Moon
Bay Antigua, the go-to location for Audrey
Hepburn et al in the 1950s, is set to swing again.
The team behind the mega-wattage Jumby
Bay villa-style hotel is instrumental in this
one-of-a-kind project, which Savills bring to
market this month. “The topography makes
Half Moon Bay Antigua a very special site,”
says James Burdess, Head of Caribbean. “The
elevation of beach into lush, verdant hillsides
means all the Residences will have fantastic

views and utter privacy. You have one of
the best beaches and best sites, designed by
seasoned developers with a lot of Caribbean
expertise and global experience.”
The Residences, each with private plunge
pools, tropical gardens and easy access to the
sea, provide the ease of fully furnished homes
defined by Rosewood’s luxurious, personalised
design approach. Renowned Dutch Studio
Piet Boon has an architectural vision that
connects all aspects of the resort with the
nature and serenity of its setting. To the north
lies a 27-acre national park containing the
best of the island’s natural biodiversity; to the

west, rise to r panoramic views over
sparkling seas from a network of hiking trails.
Throughout the landscaped hotel amenities
and private residences, there will be a fluidity
between indoor and outdoor spaces to promote
tranquillity, exploration and harmony with the
environment. Rosewood Half Moon Bay will
r residents a new paradigm for ultra
luxury in the Caribbean – combining the
region’s legendary spirit and natural beauty
with the world’s finest hospitality and
cosmopolitan amenities.
