Nestled on a 300-acre private Caribbean island two miles from Antigua, the all-inclusive Jumby Bay is a secluded haven filled with lush landscapes, palm trees, and three stunning white-sand beaches. After touching down in Antigua, guests can be whisked away on a short and scenic private cruise to Jumby Bay Island, making it one of the most desirable and exclusive private retreats in the Caribbean. 

Why the Kids Will Thank You?: 

Splashing Good Times:

Jumby Bay is an aquatic sanctuary, offering three alluring pools, each with its own personality, and a beach. 

Kids Clubs: 

The Jumby Explorers program is designed to provide younger guests with special services, amenities, and convenience items just for them. It offers endless possibilities to explore the unique wildlife and natural surroundings (by bike, beach or water), as well as a vast mix of activities specially tailored for specific age groups.

The Camp Jumby Pavilion is Jumby Bay’s headquarters for fun, games, and discovery, providing 3 to 11-year-olds with a host of opportunities for outdoor excitement and creative expression, including Little Chefs, Wildlife and Ocean Adventures, Discover Science, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dance and Sing, and a Day at the Beach. Jumby Bay’s lineup of teen and youth activities is especially geared for more advanced discovery and experiences, where guests aged 12-17 can come together with others their own age — whether it’s for mixed volleyball on the beach or a mocktail mixology class. Jumby Explorers also offers a unique opportunity for children to take an active part in the island’s conservation efforts. Under the direction of specialist researchers, young guests can experience a turtle nesting on Pasture Bay Beach, participate in the release of hatchlings into the sea, and can even “adopt” a turtle!
