St Lucia or Antigua?
Thinking of an escorted group holiday to the Caribbean?
St Lucia or Antigua?
The soothing sounds of a steel drum against the gentle lapping of ocean waves. Charming colonial towns exploding with vibrant colours and culture. The clearest turquoise waters. The warmest locals. Coconuts with a straw. And rum on tap. Holidays to the Caribbean always deliver.
But how do you pick between the islands? St Lucia and Antigua are Solos’ two most popular choices—made all the more special with our solo guests benefitting from exclusive use of the hotel and pool. In a toss up between the two Caribbean gems—which one’s for you?
The Location
Antigua’s beachfront Catamaran Hotel means you’re seconds from the white sands and crystal-clear waters, whereas St Lucia’s Harmony Suites overlooks Rodney Bay Marina and is a 200-yard stroll to the famous Reduit Beach. Each are family-run within easy reach of local amenities.
The Excursions
Solo explorers will be spoilt for choice when it comes to the range of excursions on each of these escorted group Caribbean holidays! Bursting at the seams with natural beauty, fascinating history and immersive experiences, it all depends which days out float your boat! With St Lucia, you can zipline through the rainforest, tour the island or visit the sulphur springs, botanical gardens and waterfalls, the Pitons (volcanic spires) and Marigot Bay on a thrilling catamaran cruise. Antigua’s optional excursions include visits to Pigeon Point Beach, Shirley Heights’ lookout and old military fortifications, or a spectacular catamaran cruise—a full day circumnavigation around Antigua's stunning coastline, a delicious lunch and the chance to snorkel or swim in the crystal-clear turquoise waters.
