An extensive selection of active pursuits isn't necessarily something everyone requires to enjoy the perfect tropical vacation. While some travelers would prefer a resort offering numerous recreational activities, other hotel guests are perfectly content with very few recreational options, or they simply want a relaxing place to stay. Although it doesn't have a very extensive array of active recreational amenities the Hawksbill Beach Resort may still match your specifications precisely.
Water and Fitness
Because the hotel provides a swimming pool for its guests, vacationers will find plenty of opportunities to stay cool while lounging in the sun. While lounging at the hotel pool may be the perfect way to relax while on vacation, you may also enjoy a few refreshing laps at the end of the day.
Tennis
The hotel offers tennis, but it hasn't received high ratings for this amenity. There are 111 rooms and 1 court available. This comes out to an average of approximately 266 guests for each tennis court, which isn't as favorable as some hotels in the region. You won't have trouble playing a match, but during the peak season you may find it necessary to wait until an opportune time, like when most other guests are having lunch. A lit court isn't offered, so if you want to play it will have to be during the day time,
If you really have a passion for the game, you might want to compare this hotel to some others that also offer tennis – particularly those with high ratings for tennis. Some other hotels that may be worth considering include St. James's Club and Jolly Harbour Beach Resort, Marina and Golf Club.
Golf
Although there isn't a golf course at the Hawksbill Beach Resort, if you'd like to play some golf during your vacation, the hotel can help you reserve a tee time at a nearby course. The closest course is Jolly Harbour Golf Course, located 4.7 miles southeast of the Hawksbill Beach Resort. This is a par 71 course, with a total length of 5,587 yards. The standard greens fees are as follows: $40. To find out more information, the course can be contacted at (268) 462-3085 ext 608.
Watersports
Despite the fact that the hotel doesn't offer many watersports, there are vendors in other locations in Antigua. All you have to do is place a few calls, and vacationers can arrange for a water-based activity with one of these local providers.

Family Activities
The Hawksbill Beach Resort caters to adults only, so if you're traveling with children you will have to find other lodgings. If you're looking for a place to escape from the kids, this could be the perfect spot.
Entertainment and Nightlife

Although their hours may vary, the hotel offers multiple venues where guests can sip a nice cold beverage. Typically, live entertainment is offered 2 days a week. However, the frequency can sometimes vary with the season. Knowing the exact schedule ahead of time can be beneficial, so you can know exactly what to anticipate.
