A common complaint of people who keep a car at their island home, is that when they come back after 6 months, the tires are flat, battery is dead, or the brakes are seized. It just isn't good to let a vehicle sit for long periods of time.
Regardless of that, Antigua can be an intimidating place to drive. Roads are narrower than back home, dodging the potholes and speed bumps can be daunting, and as all roads have only 2 lanes, unsafe passes are common.
We'll pick you up at the airport, we'll get you to the golf course, we'll get you to anywhere on the island you wish to go. And we'll do it hassle free.
Anyone who has travelled through the Caribbean, knows that most island minibuses require the "bend over and 'scooch' in" technique. During the trip, you often wonder if you should be focusing on the lack of creature comforts, or the apparent lack of maintenance.
At Sanctuary Cove, our air-ride fleet has been designed for total comfort. Our driver's take deep personal pride in their rides, and as such, keep them clean in a manner usually only seen with high end luxury cars and exotics.
When traveling around Antigua, with the turn of a corner, you can find yourself in the middle of a postcard-like vista. Whether it is the 'Gatorade Blue' ocean view from the crest of Dickenson Hill, or the many roadside beaches along Valley Rd, there are literally 100's of areas which will take your breath away.
That is why when we spec'd our shuttle fleet, we insisted on buses with panoramic skylights and larger than industry-norm windows.
We truly believe our shuttle system all but eliminates the need to own a car. However, we know there will still be times you'll want to trek out on your own.
We have found that the Land Rover lineup is ideally suited to the road conditions here in Antigua. We have a fleet of Land Rover LR2's and Range Rovers, ideal for the occasional self guided excursion.
By us keeping your information on file, hiring a car is as simple as waving your RFID bracelet to the attendant, and driving off on your way. The entire process should take less than 3 minutes, and in the long run, will be far cheaper and more hassle free, than owning a car.
