Curtain Bluff offers some of the finest dining in the Caribbean with breakfast, lunch and dinner included in the price.

In fact, the commitment to superior dining at Curtain Bluff is so serious that Howard Hulford created his own import company in order to ensure consistent availability of fresh ingredients from around the world.

French-born Christophe Blatz has been overseeing the kitchen at Curtain Bluff as Executive Chef for the past seven seasons, and was Sous Chef for

 
 
 

the previous seven years. Christophe Blatz trained under such notable chefs as Alain Ducasse and cooked in some of the finest Michelin star-rated kitchens in France including Les Ambassadeurs restaurant in the Hotel du Crillon Paris. His background fuses French continental with Caribbean flavors and ingredients.   Working alongside chef Christophe Blatz is Mark Andrew Smith, master of the art of pastry making.   Chef Smith's extensive resume includes over five years as pastry chef for P&O Cruises and four years as pastry chef at Carlisle Bay Resort in Antigua.   Smith, joined by Executive Sous Chef, Burdette Martin, contribute an amazing flavor to Curtain Bluff.

Afternoon Tea - Afternoon tea is served on the Sugar Mill Terrace.  

Hors d'oeuvres - At cocktail hour, guests can enjoy hot and cold hors d'oeuvres inside the Sugar Mill Bar or on its romantic terrace.

Attire - Attire is very casual during the day, but beach cover-ups are appreciated in the dining room at breakfast. At other times gentlemen are requested to wear long pants (no jeans, please), a collared shirt and dress shoes in the evening.
