Like all rex resorts, Halcyon Cove is right on the beach, so you won’t have far to travel for your pre-breakfast swim or romantic, moonlit stroll. The resort is located on the shores of Dickenson Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. It’s also a great place from which to explore Antigua and perhaps discover some of the other 300-plus beaches on and around this lovely island. Islanders proudly claim they have a beach for every day of the year!
During the day, Halcyon Cove has a range of activities for you to enjoy. Make the most of the beach location with water sports, relax around the freshwater outdoor pool, enjoy a game of tennis, or just settle down with a good book in our landscaped tropical gardens.
Evenings at Halcyon Cove are all about delicious food and authentically Caribbean entertainment. Once the sun has gone down, the Arawak Terrace plays host to a buffet of delicious creole cuisine, alongside international favourites for less adventurous palates. One of Halcyon Cove’s most spectacular places to be is Warri Pier, our romantic a la carte restaurant, located on its own pier overlooking the ocean. After dinner, the elegant Ciboney Lounge is a great place to relax and take in some traditional Antiguan culture, whilst the lively Lobby Bar hosts a range of music-based entertainment
