Royal Retreat
Hamilton Princess Hotel & Beach Club, fondly known as the “Pink Palace,” boasts over 22,000 sq. ft. of indoor and outdoor meeting and event space and 10 function rooms. The property recently launched the Executive Meeting Floor, on the second level, which is made up of four new meeting suites of varying sizes and configurations. Each is equipped with a 98-inch TV screen with built-in cameras, set in light wood cabinetry and brings in ample natural light.
The Tea Rose room seats 24 guests and includes a terrace offering views of the spa pool and Bermuda’s Hamilton Harbour. The Lemon Grove Executive Meeting Room accommodates 35 guests theater-style, and the Heron’s Nest Executive Meeting right next door can be combined with Lemon Grove for larger meetings and gatherings. The Turtle Bay Executive Meeting Room completes the floor, accommodating 32 guests. This floor was developed with the intention of filling the growing need for more intimate spaces for boutique-style meetings and gatherings.
Numerous other meeting spaces across the property all offer their own charm and whimsy, from the 2,700-square-foot Trudeau ballroom to the up to 9,725-square-foot Princess Ballrooms and Regency Terrace.

Boutique and Unique
Curtain Bluff, a leading health and wellness destination in the Caribbean, stands on a rocky outcrop between two secluded coves on the southern coast of Antigua. The property has completed an extensive multi-million-dollar renovation and now offers an adults-only Wellness Area complete with fitness facilities doubled in size, a standalone Yoga Pavilion and Zen Gardens. A newly built infinity pool and jacuzzi stand along the waterfront, so guests not only enjoy relaxing in the water, but also expansive ocean views.
The renovation also refreshed select guest rooms across the hotel’s two Hulford Collection Suites, Morris & Grace Bay Pool Suites and a number of Junior Suites. While visiting the property, guests can take part in a scuba diving excursion or one of the resort’s famed annual tennis competitions, which has welcomed stars like Gene Mayer and Tracy Austin.
With 72 luxurious guest rooms, two onsite restaurants and one exclusive, versatile 850-square-foot Tamarind event room, Curtain Bluff is a prime destination for a signature small destination event experience.
