Local Business Spotlight…

This season, Antigua has quietly welcomed one of the island's most celebrated dining experiences as La Petite Maison makes its Caribbean debut with an exclusive residency at Hermitage Bay, right on the doorstep of Pearns Point. The dining experience brings effortless glamour of the French Riviera to one of Antigua's most beautiful stretches of coastline.

For residents at Pearns Point, the journey is almost as rewarding as the destination. A leisurely drive along Antigua's west coast reveals hidden bays, sailing yachts bobbing gently offshore and the island's famously relaxed pace before arriving at Hermitage Bay, where the restaurant sits directly on the sand beneath palms. Lunch unfolds slowly here, just as it should in the Caribbean.

Riviera classics with a Caribbean rhythm

Founded more than three decades ago in Nice, La Petite Maison has built an international reputation for vibrant Mediterranean cuisine centred around exceptional ingredients, generous sharing plates and an elegant atmosphere.

Signature favourites, including truffle rigatoni, escargots, grilled entrecôte and beautifully prepared seafood, are served alongside crisp rosé, elegant cocktails and uninterrupted views across the turquoise waters of Hermitage Bay. Local musicians provide an easy soundtrack with the unmistakable warmth of the Caribbean.

A different way to experience Antigua

La Petite Maison embraces Antigua's slow-paced rhythm beautifully. Whether arriving after a morning exploring hidden coves by yacht or following a relaxed beach walk, it's the kind of place where the transition from afternoon to evening is seamless.

It's also a reminder that Antigua's culinary scene continues to evolve. Alongside exceptional local restaurants and long-established island favourites, internationally renowned names are increasingly recognising what residents have known for years. Antigua attracts a discerning audience looking for experiences that combine sophistication with authenticity.

The Pearns Point lifestyle

Life at Pearns Point has always been about more than exceptional homes. It's about waking to panoramic sea views, spending afternoons on the water, discovering new favourite restaurants and enjoying an island that continues to surprise, even after years of returning.

The arrival of La Petite Maison at Hermitage Bay is another welcome addition to that lifestyle, a reminder that Antigua effortlessly combines world-class hospitality with the relaxed elegance that makes the Caribbean unlike anywhere else.

Some destinations are defined by landmarks whilst others are remembered for moments around the table, Antigua offers both.
