The Admiral's Inn Activities and Recreation

Activities and Recreation at Admiral's Inn

An elaborate menu of recreational amenities isn't necessarily something everyone requires to enjoy the perfect tropical vacation. While some vacationers will be happier at a hotel offering numerous recreational activities, others are content with a small selection of active recreational options, because all they really care about is having a comfortable, relaxing place to stay. Despite the fact that the hotel doesn't offer a very extensive array of recreational offerings the Admiral's Inn may have what everything you really care about.

Water and Fitness

Granted the hotel doesn't have a swimming pool as one of its amenities, this doesn't keep it from being a popular place to stay. Not having a beach in its front or back yard, generally travelers take time to visit some of Antigua's gorgeous beaches.

Tennis

The hotel doesn't have a tennis court, so this isn't an ideal choice if you are a dedicated tennis enthusiast. This isn't troubling to most visitors, since there are plenty of other activities available.

If you are seeking the best vacation spots to play tennis, you might want to investigate Antigua Village and St. James's Club. These hotels feature some of the greatest spots for tennis, so you may want to consider their features in comparison with those of this hotel before making a reservation.

Golf

Although the Admiral's Inn does not have a golf course, if you'd like to play some golf during your vacation, the hotel can help you make arrangements with one of the local courses. The nearest golf course is Jolly Harbour Golf Course, located 7.2 miles west of the Admiral's Inn. This par 71 course is 5,587 yards long. The greens fees for use of the course are as follows: $40. If you're interested in finding out more information, you can reach the course at (268) 462-3085 ext 608.

Watersports

Although the hotel doesn't provide any watersports, there are vendors elsewhere in Antigua. By placing a few phone calls, visitors can arrange for the necessary equipment and services, using one of these local providers.

Family Activities

Although families are certainly welcome at the Admiral's Inn, this hotel doesn't provide many family-oriented amenities. Because there are very few kids' amenities at this hotel, travelers who are planning a vacation with their children should carefully consider their priorities and carefully weigh the pros and cons of this hotel, compared to some of the other choices. In fact, you might want to consider some of the hotels that are rated best for family vacations.

Entertainment and Nightlife

Tourists hoping for a trip chock full of live entertainment and exciting nightlife may not be happy at this hotel. Unfortunately, the area around this hotel is fairly quiet, and the hotel does not offer live entertainment. Needless to say, if that isn't a fatal flaw the Admiral's Inn may be just what the doctor ordered. While you can certainly enjoy a beverage at the bar here, your on-site choices are strictly limited.
