No concrete buildings, no technology unless you bring your own, and no unrenewable sources for anything. What Wild Lotus Glamping beach resort does have is a track down to an all wood beach bar, a litter of luxury lotus belle tents, and an ocean so blue you would think Monet blended the brightest shade of blue he could create and painted the picture perfect views.
It sounds perfect to some. Others decide the simplicity of nature needs improvement. The only way to be sure before you visit is to spend an imaginary day with us. So here goes. This is how you would spend a day in our glamping beach resort in Antigua
An Overview of Our Glamping Beach Resort
Wild Lotus Glamping is the definitive in Caribbean glamping. Our stretch of beach is a half mile piece of Valley Church Beach on Antigua’s west coast where sun, sea and sand are the most popular things to do. With 365 beaches, one for every day of the year, it is little wonder that Antigua is best placed to offer the ultimate Caribbean glamping experience.
But Antigua is more than the beach. While you’re welcome to spend the whole day lazing on our beach chairs, if you’re more adventurous, you may want to rent a car or Jeep and explore Antigua’s cute art galleries and historical sites.
If you do stay for the day, inside your tent has a quirky mix of solid English oak furniture and antique brass beds, a nod to the English colonial history of Antigua. Each tent also has fans to help keep you cool during the day and a private outdoor shower with beautiful banana and palm trees and brightly colored flowers.
Starting Your Day In Our Glamping Beach Resort
If you start your day early you and our other guests will have the beach all to yourself for a few hours. Now is the perfect time to quietly take in your surroundings. From the comfort of your tent if you look to your right, you'll see hummingbirds and butterflies darting in and out of the flowers in the shower garden. Look to your left and a few steps away all you’ll see are waves bringing with them that unique sound human musicians still haven’t managed to duplicate.
As you feel your breath slowing down the sun will begin peeking out and the blue of the ocean will suddenly change into a turquoise that seems to get brighter with every passing minute. It is here that you may have the thought that--
Our Caribbean Beach Glamping Resort Is Not Luxury in the Typical Sense
But as you give it some serious consideration somehow you can't seem to shake the feeling that while there are no ostentatious displays or superfluous signs of wealth, there is still a kind of luxury you can't put your finger on. You’d researched all about glamping but the actual experience is starting to stimulate you more than expected.

Breakfast
It isn't until the breakfast that comes included in your stay arrives and you walk onto the beach to eat on a chair closer to the ocean that the light bulb goes off. You’re sitting on a secluded beach with waves lapping at your toes and the endless ocean as your playground. Yes this is luxury. This is simple, barefoot luxury.
The Tropical Outdoor Showers
After breakfast, you head to the private rain shower enclosed next to your tent and realize that every detail in Wild Lotus Glamping beach resort has been curated to give a sense of total immersion in nature. There's a 20ft Papaya tree and banana trees hugging the shower. Hibiscus bushes with their delightful large flowers are also extending their arms to you.
There in nature’s embrace you take a shower in water heated by solar energy because this paradise will not be the one that harms the fragile Caribbean ecology in any way.
Morning Excursions
Wild Lotus’s lush green oasis just 20 steps from the turquoise hues of the Caribbean sea is a good place to spend the morning. But since the beach may get crowded until it closes at 4PM to provide seclusion for guests again, you may decide to book a wellness treatment.
Wellness Treatments
It could be one of our tropical oil massages or perhaps yoga right there on the beach. If you decide to go further afield, forest bathing in the Japanese tradition immerses you in the nearby forest where the purest air improves mood and rejuvenates the spirit. After your wellness experience in nature, if you find yourself suddenly energized, other daytime adventures around Antigua may be the way to go.
Day Time Adventures
It’s easy to arrange a tour or rent a car to venture out on your own. Historical sites, archaeological and geological sites and art galleries are some on land things you can do in Antigua. But this is the Caribbean so if you wanted to snorkel or go boating, you could easily arrange watersports too.
Night Time Romance
After a day well spent, you return to the wild luxury of our Caribbean glamping beach resort and notice that the beach is secluded again and though you never thought it possible, the ocean has changed colors again.
Other guests have rented firepits and are cooking pre seasoned lobster that remind you you will need dinner when the aroma hits your nose.
But that will have to wait.
One of the Caribbean’s famous sunsets has cast a riot of oranges across the sky and catching every second of it before it disappears is suddenly more important than your pangs of hunger! As the sun disappears, twinkling fairy lights and tiki torches start coming on everywhere. The tents now look like they belong on the cover of a romance novel instead of in a glamping beach resort in the Caribbean.
By the dancing flames of the tiki torches you find the nearby restaurant and get the bar you hired. When you return, it’s with dinner and the delectable cocktail menu Wild Lotus has curated. Tonight, sitting next to the romantic beach tents, you'll have fun mixing your own cocktails and telling stories around the bonfire that another guest has going!.
