La Marea
A Breathtaking Oceanfront Villa on Antigua’s Northwest Point

Nestled amidst lush, tropical gardens on the exclusive island of Antigua, La Marea is a vibrant and inviting villa, full of character and Caribbean charm. Loved and lived in, this sun-drenched sanctuary is now available for guests seeking tranquility, beauty, and a true connection with nature.

Positioned on a private estate, La Marea offers panoramic,180-degree ocean views, where the horizon melts into the sea. Designed to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living, the villa captures gentle breezes throughout its open spaces, while the abundant gardens provide natural shade and serenity.

Each room is thoughtfully crafted for relaxation, featuring unique Caribbean touches. The layout revolves around a stunning infinity-edge pool that seamlessly blends into the horizon, inviting you to move effortlessly from the bedside to the poolside.

The villa boasts multiple spaces for unwinding, including a picturesque gazebo perched above the ocean—perfect for lounging with the sounds of gentle waves or savoring a breathtaking sunset after another sun-filled day.

Though secluded and peaceful, La Marea provides convenient access to Antigua’s best amenities, including shops, restaurants, and beaches. It serves as an ideal base for exploring the island’s natural beauty and cultural treasures.

Accommodations
This spacious oceanfront retreat comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests. The main villa features three en-suite bedrooms—one with a king-sized bed and two with queen-sized beds—while the adjacent guest apartment offers two additional en-suite bedrooms, each with a four-poster queen-sized bed.

At the heart of La Marea is the great room, an airy, art-filled space where Caribbean works decorate the walls. This central living area is divided into distinct spaces: a cozy media lounge with TV and library, a dining area, a living room overlooking the pool and ocean, and a fully equipped kitchen with an outdoor barbecue. Surrounding porches and terraces offer ample spots for al fresco dining and quiet contemplation, all with breathtaking sea views.

La Marea is the perfect destination for those seeking renewal and inspiration. Here, time slows down, inviting you to savor lazy days by the ocean, watch pelicans and other birdlife, and marvel at the sailboats gliding across the sun-dappled Caribbean Sea.

I have worked internationally in the world of luxury hospitality for over 35 years, and my wife, Maria who is from Sorrento in Italy, being and architect, has lovingly transformed La Marea into a stunning ocean front property which lends itself to a truly memorable vacation escape in a really special and unique location.

Having an instinctive understanding of the needs of guests visiting our home and I am delighted to assist in helping ensure that every moment of your time with us is everything you would want and so much more!

Why they chose this property

We bought this property as it was love at first sight. Having lived around the world and with Maria coming from Sorrento we both felt immediately at home here. There is a serenity and connection to nature which makes spending time in La Marea a unique and peaceful pleasure

What makes this property unique

La Marea is positioned on a point facing northwest with water views on 2 sides. The house benefits from the natural cooling of the ever present trade winds and has its own small private beach and dock where we keep a 26' center console boat that can be chartered by guests of La Marea
