Beach Access
|
|
|
A short 1 minute walk down the moderately
sloping driveway takes you to the quarter mile,
white sand and palm-fringed Galleon Beach.
This beach, also known as Freeman's Bay, is
one of the most beautiful beaches in Antigua.
There are several fixed beach umbrellas.
Beach chairs are available free of cost through
the Galleon Beach Management.
Galleon Beach also offers good and safe
off-shore snorkeling. At the far end of the
bay
there is a reef, which attracts tropical fish.
Don't forget to pack your snorkel gear.
Alternatively you can rent one from Aquanaut
Divers in English Harbour.
Close to the
entrance of Galleon Beach there is a great Beach
bar / restaurant, called Calabash.

Location
Moondance is situated at the far end of idyllic Galleon
Beach, which is a small and quiet high-end
residential community built into the lush green
hillside of Freeman's Bay.
A 1 minute stroll takes you to the
quarter mile white sand beach with
crystal clear water for safe swimming and
good snorkeling.
Moondance enjoys stunning views of
historic Fort Berkeley and Nelson's Dockyard
across the turquoise colored bay.
The Dockside supermarket, restaurants, shops,
etc. are only a 5 minute drive away.

Villa walkthrough
Moondance
has been one of our client favorites for many
years. The villa sits in a great location,
enjoying stunning views. One of the best beaches
on the island is a 1 minute stroll away from the
villa. And - Moondance is one of the best
maintained villas on the Antigua rental market.
The short, but
steep driveway takes you to Moondance's parking
area. A car can make the steep climb, but most
of our clients prefer a 4x4 to do the job. From
the parking level some 20 steps take you to the
villa's entrance. Entering Moondance you go up
some additional 20 steps to the villa's main
living level. Here you have 2 of the 3 bedrooms,
the kitchen, living room, library and covered
verandah for dining and entertaining.
The living room
is the center piece of the villa and sits
between the fully-fitted kitchen and the
library, which has more than 500 books. The
master bedroom is being accessed from the
library, while the second guest bedroom is being
accessed from the kitchen. Both bedrooms have
their own ensuite bathrooms with open-sky
showers. The third bedroom is semi-attached to
Moondance and therefore has its own entrance.
From the living
room you step right onto your covered verandah,
which runs the entire length of the villa and
which offers several areas for dining,
entertaining and relaxing. The views of the
turquoise-colored bay, the white sand beach and
the anchoring yachts are stunning.
Some 12 steps
down from the covered verandah take you to the
sundeck with your private, medium-sized pool and
adjoining BBQ area. For your convenience there
is an additional pool toilet on this level.
Moondance is
simply a feel-good villa. We love the
combination of decor from all over the world
with antique furniture. It's a stylish villa,
and yet very comfortable and you feel at home
the second you step through the door - or in
Moondance's case, after you've climbed 20 steps.
Good to know
!
For guests with walking
difficulties Moondance may not be the very best
choice.
For guests traveling with young children,
Moondance can put up safety rails on the
verandah.
