85 PRIVATE ISLAND IDYLL Two miles off the coast of Antigua, the villas at Jumby Bay offer the true seclusion that only a private island can. On this 300-acre paradise accessible only by boat, you will find no cars; but you will find heavenly white-sand beaches bordered by crystal-clear waters and indigenous wildlife, like the Hawksbill Sea Turtle. Guests enjoy the seclusion and serenity of their own residence, waiting to see what magical feast their private chef will whip up next, while also having access to the resort’s world-renowned facilities and services.

As a guest, you are provided with a bicycle to ride to our waterfowl sanctuaries and see rare birds like whistling ducks, blue pelican, and the majestic white egret. Or you can ride to the Jumby Bay Farm in the morning to pick fresh herbs and farm fresh eggs for an exquisite omelet.” ASHLEY SMITH J U M B Y B AY I S L A N D ANDREWHARPERTRAVEL.COM SPRING | 2018
