LEARN MORE

BLUE WATERS RESORT, ANTIGUA

Located on the northern coast of Antigua, Blue Waters Resort has earned a reputation as one of the Caribbean’s premier destinations for privacy, comfort, and understated luxury. Spread across 18 acres of lush gardens, freshwater pools, and hidden beach coves, the property offers a rare sense of space and calm.


Guests enjoy world-class dining, personalized service, and direct access to a range of activities — from water sports and wellness classes to morning hikes along the coastline. Every element of the resort is designed to balance vitality with restoration.

For ACTAI, Blue Waters is the ideal setting for a community built on curiosity, wellness, and human connection.

Getting to Antigua

Flights to Antigua are available from most major U.S. east coast hubs as well as direct flights from London, UK. All guests should fly into V.C. Bird International Airport, Antigua (ANU).

Travel Requirements
All travellers are required to complete Antigua & Barbuda’s Online Embarkation/Disembarkation (ED) Card prior to arrival.

  • The ED form must be completed online within 72 hours of travel
  • It can be accessed via the official Arrive Antigua portal: Click Here
  • Once submitted, you will receive a QR code, which should be presented on arrival

We recommend completing this in advance to ensure a smooth and efficient arrival experience.

Tourist Entry into Antigua
Visitors travelling to Antigua for tourism require the following:

  • A valid passport
  • Passport should be valid for the duration of your stay
    Visa

Citizens of the U.S., U.K., Canada, EU, and many other countries do not require a visa for short tourist stays. List of countries exempt from requiring a visa: Click here

If your country of citizenship is not on that list, you do require a visa before travel to Antigua

Transport
Airport transfers will be arranged for guests staying at Blue Waters Resort. Transportation to and from all scheduled event activities will be provided for all guests. Guests with ticket-only purchases are responsible for coordinating their own transfers between their hotel and Blue Waters Resort.

Packing list
You can expect warm, sunny days with refreshing trade winds in Antigua in February, with temperatures typically ranging from 72° to 86°F (22°C to 30°C). We recommend packing light, breathable summer clothing, along with relaxed island chic attire for the evenings,. Please include swim and activewear for kitesurfing, boat excursions and wellness experiences, and don’t forget to pack an outfit for our Gilligan’s Island–themed evening, sponsored by Cell Theory.
