The four-pearl boutique Admiral’s Inn & Gunpowder Suites offers guests a rare chance to stay on the grounds of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, set in immaculately maintained 18th-century British buildings straddling Freeman’s Bay. A small boat shuttles passengers between the two parts of the property. Incorporating original architectural features like exposed brick and wood beams, the 32 polished, TV-free rooms offer free Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, and Brita water pitchers. Beautiful suites also feature private balconies, minibars, and coffeemakers. Two restaurant/bars overlook the water, and there’s a charming lobby bar. There’s also an infinity pool, a small beach, and a spa, but no fitness facilities. For a similarly historic property with slightly lower rates, consider The Copper and Lumber Store Hotel -- but there's no pool.

Other amenities include a freshwater pool, a small beach with lounge areas, and a private jetty, but there’s no fitness center or spa.

An 18th-century shipbuilding storehouse turned boutique hotel -- the Copper and Lumber Store stands as an enchanting, Georgian-style tribute to British naval history in the heart of Nelson's Dockyard. This three-pearl establishment overlooks English Harbor and includes 14 studios and suites dressed in period decor -- with wet bars or kitchens. There’s a British-style restaurant and pub, a marina, and event venues (weddings and yacht or fishing-related gatherings, especially). The hotel is otherwise low on features, but plays a starring role in the island’s historical narrative that unfolds within its walls, and in the preserved Dockyard grounds it shares (with a museum, restaurants, and other boutique businesses). All up, this hotel is a treat for history buffs and yachties. Travelers seeking a more modern marina hotel could try the nearby Antigua Yacht Club Marina Resort.
