Villa Coquille at St James's Club, Mamora Bay, Antigua
About this villa rental
Villa Coquille offers all the luxuries of St. James's Club, spectacular views of Mamora Bay from sunrise to sunset and a very private and intimate feel. If you are looking to be in a very secure environment with all the comforts that a holiday resort offers, but want to be in a secluded, intimate and very private beachfront location at the same time, you have found your place! CANCELLATION POLICY - from October 15 to April 30 - cancel within 150 days for full refund, within 90 days for a 50% refund. From May 1 to November 14 - cancel within 75 days for a full refund and 45 days for a 50% refund. Contact me directly for a cancellation. The 2 bedroom, 2.5 en-suite bath villa offers a king size master bedroom with large screened windows opening to the beach and sea and another large sized bedroom with three beds. Two can be joined to create a king size bed and the third is a queen size Murphy bed. The spacious living area opens to gorgeous views of Mamora Bay and has an open plan kitchen great for entertainment. Indoor or outdoor dining, your choice. A place to relax with a book or relax in front of the tv if you need to take a break from the Caribbean sun. The villa is fully air-conditioned, has flat screen TV and private Wi-Fi is provided. The fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances will permit you to cook a gourmet dinner or just make yourself a good Italian espresso when you need reinforcements after a day of sport activities. The inside is furnished in light beach house style, bright and breezy, with updated designer furnishings to capture the beach style living and color palette inspired by water, sun and vegetation. You will find artwork created by the previous owner from what she found on the beaches and in the sea of Mamora Bay. Take inspiration and create your own artwork to take home from your holidays! The very large covered terrace (nearly 800sf) features a cozy and delightful dining area with additional space for entertaining and a lounging area with comfortable sun loungers. The covered patio is arguably the best to be found at the resort! The villa's terrace has an electrically operated windscreen which provides for an even more serene and sheltered feeling. Evenings are well spent on the terrace watching the sunset and the lights surrounding Mamora Bay emerge. The Caribbean sky showcases the stars as they appear and the breeze of the palms, gentle breaking waves and sound of tropical tree frogs will chill you out even more. Located right on the beach, 'piers dans l'eau', a short stroll away from the resort's amenities, offers the best of both worlds: unobstructed views of the sea and a quiet golden sand beach at your doorstep. There are sun parasols for your exclusive use and all the buzz of the resort's restaurants, water sports centre and swimming pools are just a barefoot walk away. The size of the villa and its terrace with its comfortable and tasteful interior, as well as the superb beachfront location may make you spend your entire holiday relaxing at the villa. You will be surrounded by spectacular views, with frequent breaks for a dip in the sea and a snooze in the shade. We encourage you to do more! The resort has two fabulous sandy beaches, cleaned every day, so you can swim in warm clear Caribbean waters to your heart's content. From the Atlantic side beach you can swim or kayak as far as a coral reef and snorkel from there and from the Mamora Bay beach side you can set off windsurfing, paddle boarding, snorkeling, catamaran sailing, etc... Enjoy all of St. James's Club facilities which you will find more than enough during your stay: four seafront restaurants, a beach bar and grill or if you do not feel like getting up from your sun lounger just grab a beverage from the drink cart passing by with astonishing regularity! The all-inclusive package is available for an additional fee but is quite worthy of the price (currently $135 per adult and $75 per child under age 12). The property manager, Mr. Akeem Zachariah, is a fully trained professional chef and offers a la carte catering services. He will also guide you to the best places to dine on the island and advise you on where to buy your groceries. He also offers the option to pre-purchase your groceries for you and have the kitchen totally stocked (small fee)! Try your hand in sailing, kayaking, windsurfing and paddle boating under a watchful eye of the seasoned water sports crew. Take part in beach volleyball matches, morning hikes, stretch/pilates and Abs classes or sweat on your own terms in the fully equipped, air-conditioned workout gym! Play tennis on one of the four floodlit tennis courts or take up pickle ball on the new courts. And then take yourself to the beauty spa with a delightfully long menu of treatments. Outside St. James's Club things to do are aplenty! We are happy to share with you all the famous and hidden treasures of Antigua and our property manager, Akeem Zachariah, will be glad to answer any questions. He can point you to restaurants, night life, historic monuments, places to watch yacht racings, day-trips by car or boat, deep-sea diving and deep-sea fishing. You can schedule all that and more via a concierge at the St. James's Club or ask us for a recommendation. You may rent a car, with or without a driver, in order to travel the island. Our Wi-Fi is about the fastest at any Villa in the resort and we have a wireless printer with scanner available, especially helpful if any one in your party needs to do a bit of remote "work"! It is a vacation paradise and it can be yours for reasonable rates. We have completed several recent renovations to the Villa. This includes a kitchen renovation by adding a dishwasher, new Corian countertops and tile backsplash, extending the cabinets, adding a custom made pantry cabinet and installing new appliances. On the patio we have installed ceiling fans and new dining tables. A new Bosch clothes dryer to compliment the Bosch washer has been added and the guest bedroom has a new queen sized Murphy bed. New and larger dressers have been added to the master bedroom and guest bedroom. RESORT & ISLAND FEE (St James's Club, Antigua): A Resort Fee of $24 per night is payable locally at the resort and a recently government mandated fee of $5 per person per day is also payable at the resort. This fee includes wi-fi service throughout the resort and helps defer the costs of enhanced cleaning and sanitizing protocols (COVID). The fee is inclusive of any taxes. The province of Antigua charges all guests a "Tourism Guest Levy" of $5 per day per person (this began in October 2021). CANCELLATION POLICY - See above

If you are looking for an on-the-beach location with access to all kinds of water sports, in a villa that is well equipped and maintained, with a helpful and responsive owner and property manager, this is it! Everything was as described and the views are even better than the photos. We had a fabulous visit! Cynthia and Greg were very responsive in the rental process and gave us great tips before our stay. Akeem, the local property manager, was very welcoming and attentive to our needs. He grocery shopped for us and arranged for a catered meal. Having the option to use the resort or our kitchen made it a very relaxing week. We hope to visit again soon.

This was an absolutely wonderful villa - right on a fabulous beach with a great deck, well-furnished rooms, good AC, and access to all of the resort's water sports (sailing, SUPs, kayaks, and more) Mamora Bay was terrific - with none of the Sargasso that now plagues Antiguan beaches on the Atlantic side of the island. We loved the location near English Harbor, where there are many good local restaurants , very interesting historic sites, and one of the finest yachting centers in the Caribbean. We took good advantage of the well equipped kitchen in the villa after shopping at "Covent Garden" market a couple of kilometers away and enjoyed the beach bar just a few hundred feet from the villa's deck. The staff at the St James Club was especially friendly and helpful. We very much hope to return!

My brother lives in Antigua so we've visited many times over the years. This is by far the best place we've stayed. The house is right on the beach and at the end of the beach, which is especially private and nice. The huge veranda has three really comfortable seating areas and that's where we spent our time. The beds/linens are super comfortable too. The beach is in a gorgeous little protected cove, ideal for swimming. We usually rent a house but this time we went with a resort. This resort has so much to offer! Tennis and pickle ball courts, little sailboats, kayaks, SUPs, optional restaurants, live music at night at just the right distance away, plus planned activities every day like Water Polo games, trivia games, kid movies and yoga. We won't stay anywhere else next time. The hosts are welcoming, the manager is excellent at his job. It's really a gem. Just book it.

Beautiful spacious villa with amazing patio and gorgeous furnishings offering unparalleled views across the bay. Main bedroom bed is huge and very comfortable, twin beds comfortable.
The villa has use of the resort beach towels and watersports.
Food in resort not worth money they charge so stock up fridge from local supermarket and enjoy the fabulous restaurants in English Harbour.
Property owners quick to answer questions.

We loved being able to step onto the beach for a quick swim from the spacious terrace of Villa Coquille. We had a wonderful holiday relaxing at the villa and also using the waterspouts of St James's club and exploring around Antigua. The villa is beautiful, clean and well equipped and in a beautiful location right on a stunning calm bay.

Very enjoyable working vacation at Villa Coquille. Extremely relaxing especially during low season in Antigua. Villa amenities and St. James Club facilities all as advertised. Many thanks to Akeem, the property manager for his constant attention especially during the passage of Tropical Storm Fiona. Would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Antigua.

After having to postpone our trip for 2 years, it was finally a dream come true. The resort was beautiful, the villa was amazing, the location was perfect. When we travel, it’s all about the details. A cooler for the beach, an ice machine to fill the cooler, and fresh beach towels daily. All the necessities to make the villa our own, and the safety of a gated resort. We loved relaxing on the patio after a hard day at the beach, and steps away from the sand and water was fabulous. All questions and concerns were dealt with promptly before our arrival, and Akeem was there if we needed him.( The property manager.) it’s certainly a trip we will never forget, and we definitely recommend this property.
Thanks for everything Greg and Cynthia

Love this Villa!
It’s nice to be able to spread out, especially having kids! Steps to the beach and access to the St. James resort is really a plus. Antigua itself is beautiful and we hope to visit again!

Best Villa at the St. James Club
This is private paradise with access to resort amenities and activities at the St. James Club. The spacious terrace is spectacular. The villa sits at the quiet end of the beach with a great view down the beach and out to the bay. We loved taking out the hobie cats, kayaks and sups. My family enjoyed beach volleyball, tennis and pickle ball. I enjoyed just sitting on the terrace or lounging on a swim ring in the bay. There are some nice excursions offered through the resort. You can be as active or relaxed as you want. The villa has everything you need if you want to cook or you can dine at the resorts’ open-air restaurants. A great location to feel safe during these COVID times. Testing at the resort for the return trip was easy. Throughout our stay, the property manager was on hand for any needs and arranged a private chef for us for a spectacular dinner on the terrace. My family and I had a fabulous time. We will be back!

You simply cannot do better than Villa Coquille. It has the best location on beach, best verandah, best amenities, and best owners and support staff.
If this Villa is available for your dates, grab it!
Villa Coquille is located on the more private end of the St. James Club beach, and just a few steps from the Mamora Bay Bar and the Towel hut. The verandah is unbelievable, has a dining table for at least 10 persons, different seating and laying about areas, outdoor shower, not to forget the cooling fans! It’s a perfect area for anything you want to do outside.
The inside is just as perfect and has all the quality amenities you would need, while still maintaining “you are in Antigua at the beach” feeling. The owners have cultivated a sense of sharing – use the sunscreen, starter food, etc. left for your use, and leave what you didn’t use for the next person.
St. James Club speaks for itself and you have access to all its amenities. However, in our view, this is the best Villa there. We even watched a lobster boat moored just out front go out/come back every day – one day with a shark!
I cannot recommend Villa Coquille enough.
