About this villa rental

Located in Antigua and Barbuda, this charming villa for $647 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Bluff House is perched on a Bluff overlooking its own private cove. It is secluded, breezy and beautiful. It is a three minute walk from the famous Half Moon Bay, a one mile stretch of white sandy beach boasting turquoise blue waters with both calm and tranquil spots to swim or waves perfect for body boarding and advanced kite surfing. On and near the beach are also two local run restaurants. Bluff House is a ten minute drive from Non-Such Bay and resort which is a five minute boat trip from one of the top kite surfing destinations in the world. It is a 25 minute drive from Falmouth and English Harbour with its historical sites, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, shops and one of the two largest Super and Mega Yachting hubs in the Caribbean. Bluff House boasts a swimming pool, games room (with pool table, darts, table tennis and surround sound), four outdoor eating areas, two separate en-suite cottages (sleeps two in each) with outdoor showers. The main house has a fully equipped kitchen with larder and pantry, a welcoming entrance way and dining room and comfortable lounge. The lounge has a 50 inch TV. The sound is played through a surround sound bose stereo system. All rooms in the main house have 4G internet access through a wifi router and large booster antenna. A local mobile phone is provided with the house for local calls. Separate to the main house and cottages there is a laundry room, generator room, covered surf shed and store room/office. There are electric gates with pedestrian side entrance that opens onto ample parking, a paved soccer court and gardens. The property is fully fenced in. Bluff House would be best described as a retreat. It boasts more than a 180 degree ocean view with not another dwelling or home in sight. It could best be enjoyed as a romantic getaway, or by two close families, or by a gang of friends eager to kite surf. It provides ultimate / complete privacy for those trying to escape the lime light and would be considered a writers dream! Bluff House is a lovely home with a family feel set in a beautiful location.

We have just returned from our stay at Bluff House which was simply incredible. It is located in the most special, remote setting by Half Moon Bay. We hired a car and travelled around the whole island but our favourite place was Half Moon Bay for sure. The Beach Bum Bar there is all you need and we will definitely be back! The house was so well equipped with bodyboards for surfing, music system, ping pong, pool…and the view from the table outside watching the pelicans dive into the water was amazing. This is a one of a kind house if you are looking to get away from lots of people and enjoy the most beautiful beach with the best beach bar. Thank you Pammie for letting us experience it. Katie

I usually scour the Internet for the perfect holiday home for me and my family and when I came across Bluff house it looked perfect. It's so remote with wonderful views. My youngest wanted to play hide and seek here but I had to tell him no as I feared I would never find him again as the place is so vast! We had breakfast and dinner on the picnic bench with the waves crashing below and the pelicans swooping past. Inside the house the kids were happy with having WiFi and YouTube on the TV in the evenings as well as table tennis and the pool table. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need including a massive fridge freezer (Very jealous) and an ice cold water cooler. The beds were very tidy and good sizes. Pool was lovely, gets a nice bit of shade in the afternoon and we was shown by Raheem the storage box full of towels we could use. The LED lighting at night on the pool and outside seating area entices you out to make good use of the areas in the evening. We did use the basketball court and played a bit of football. We saw so many creatures outside the house, lizards, birds, crabs even a horse spider which I never told the kids about until we were back home. Mwahaha! There are a few small maintenance issues that could be sorted. Small tiles are coming off the pool making the floor slightly sharp in a couple of places, a few of the bathroom sinks could do with adjusting as they don't drain very fast and the plug in Little cove cottage sink didn't stay down. We had planned to let my teenage son stay in the Hideaway cottage but we did feel it was quite far away from the rest of the family. Would be fine for couples and has a wonderful balcony with comfy seats but felt not as ideal for kids. Security light also kept coming on all night right outside the master bedroom (not sure if it was the wind or birds but would be handy to turn it off or move to a different place) Lastly we know air con is not offered but we would have gladly paid an extra £200-300 for the privilege as it was hot all week. We had the doors open during the day but didn't feel comfortable having them open at night with no nets or curtains to keep mosquitos out. Fans in every room were very handy but unfortunately doesn't compare to air con. We loved our stay here and with the added bonus of Half Moon Bay with beach bum bar just a 5-10min walk away which we frequently used. We fully recommend this villa to anyone thinking of staying in Antigua as it is amazing!!

When we booked Bluff House, we drooled over the photos, counting down the days until we could experience it for real. However, the photos can't convey the impact of arriving at this wonderful house. The sound of the waves crashing against the cliffs, the beautiful cooling breeze, or the simple joy of watching the pelicans fishing for hours on end cannot be conveyed in any other way, you simply have to be there! This is a well equipped, spacious property, with the added advantage of being a 10 minute walk from Half Moon Bay, one of our favourite beaches in Antigua. Our favourite part? It's hard to beat the simple pleasure of an early morning breakfast on the deck, watching the sunrise. It is a memory which will stay with us forever.

Unique location close to a fabulous beach

Our family of 5, plus a boyfriend, spent 10 days over the Easter period at Bluff House. The accommodation was ideal and the beds so comfortable that we all slept better than we had for years, lulled by the waves in the cove and the soft breezes that replaced any need for air con. The house is shabby chic with covered outdoor sitting and dining areas where one can sit and watch the pelicans fish and the kitchen is well equipped. There is a lovely pool and Half Moon Beach is literally an easy two minute walk. Depending on the weather, the two ends of the beach are suitable for swimming and the centre is more of a surf beach. The Beach Bum cafe (Tipee's) serves excellent food but it is advisable to get there early or pre-order to avoid a long wait as all food is cooked to order. Bluff House was ideal for our stay and although it is quite remote, we enjoyed driving round the island to visit other beaches and restaurants and Shirley Heights on a Sunday or Thursday is a must!

I am hesitant to write this review as this place is so beautiful and amazing I would love to keep it a secret. The location was a absolutely amazing. You do not need to leave. Swimming, hiking or simply enjoying the view and relaxing were the highlights for us. We had three generations and all had a fabulous time. The beach is about a 5 to 10 min walk. The water was clear and the beach sandy- waves were so fun!! The hiking on the bluff was spectacular. The house was perfect in every way. We cooked most of our meals and the kitchen had everything single things we could want or need. Beds were all very comfortable. So many different rooms to hang out and look at the view of the bay. We drove to galleon bay beach for snorkeling and I must say, it was some of the best-and doable for ages 10 to 70! We stocked up on groceries by the airport-the driving is adventurous and slow, but so worth it. Obviously, we highly recommend.
