Indulge & Relax

Tucked into mature tropical gardens directly on the beach, the original Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottages offer a more cocooned and connected beachfront experience at the heart of Keyonna Beach.

Positioned closer to the restaurant, lounge, and main beach areas, these cottages are especially popular with couples who enjoy being immersed in the atmosphere of the hotel while still retreating to their own secluded beachfront space.

Looking for a beachfront cottage that balances seclusion with convenience? This is it.

More Shade. More Character. More Connection to the Heart of the Hotel.

Positioned directly on the beach near the center of the hotel, the original Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottages feel more intimate, shaded, and tucked into the landscape than the newer Premium Sanctuary category. Dense tropical foliage surrounds the verandah, plunge pool, and sandy beachfront areas, creating a setting that feels established, private, and deeply connected to the natural character of Keyonna Beach.

Many guests naturally move between the beach, restaurant, and their cottage throughout the day, returning often to the shaded verandah, hammock, plunge pool, and dedicated Bali bed just steps from the sea.

Each cottage features a four-poster king bed, plunge pool, Adirondack chairs, hammock, dual-head outdoor rain shower, and multiple shaded lounging areas designed for slow mornings and relaxed afternoons by the beach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both cottages sit directly on the beach with a private plunge pool and full all-inclusive access; the difference is the location, the setting, and the overall feel of the experience.

The Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottages sit level with the beach and feel more connected to the heart of the property, with dense tropical greenery surrounding the deck and plunge pool areas.

The Premium Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottages, by contrast, offer a more expansive and open beachfront living experience, with larger outdoor areas and broader sea views.

For many years, all of these cottages were grouped together under the original Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottage category. We recently separated them into two room types to help guests better choose the experience that suits them best. Some guests prefer the openness and views of the Premium category. Others love the more cocooned and tucked-away feeling of the original Sanctuary cottages.

The Beachfront Sanctuary Pool Cottages sit directly along the beach with walkout access from your private outdoor living space. Your dedicated Bali bed and the Caribbean Sea are only steps away.

No. The plunge pools are not heated, though Antigua’s warm Caribbean climate keeps the water comfortable throughout most of the year.
