Elite Island Resorts in Antigua to Feature in “The Golden Bachelor” Finale Episodes
Antigua’s breathtaking beauty will take center stage as Elite Island Resorts proudly announces its participation in the penultimate and final episodes of “The Golden Bachelor”, airing November 5 and November 12 on ABC, with next-day streaming on Hulu.
Filmed across four of Antigua’s most romantic and luxurious properties, Galley Bay Resort & Spa, Hammock Cove Antigua, Pineapple Beach Club Antigua, and The Verandah Antigua, the episodes promise to showcase the island’s signature charm and world-class hospitality.
The show’s star, Mel Owens, a 66-year-old former NFL linebacker turned lawyer, brings a heartfelt story of resilience and rediscovery. Raised in Detroit, Owens was a first-round draft pick for the LA Rams in 1981 before retiring to pursue a successful law career in California. After personal loss and years dedicated to raising his two sons, Owens now seeks companionship and love in his golden years.
As Owens embarks on his romantic journey, each resort provides a distinct backdrop for love and connection:
Galley Bay Resort & Spa offers barefoot luxury, oceanfront suites, and a serene lagoon spa.
Hammock Cove Antigua delivers elevated five-star indulgence with private plunge pools, gourmet cuisine, and curated wine experiences.
Pineapple Beach Club Antigua radiates fun and vibrancy with its white-sand beach and lively atmosphere.
The Verandah Antigua presents a tranquil escape with spacious villas and wellness-inspired relaxation.
These idyllic settings capture the spirit of romance and reinforce Antigua’s reputation as one of the Caribbean’s premier destinations for love and leisure.
“The Golden Bachelor” is produced by Warner Horizon Unscripted Television, a Warner Bros. Television Group company, with Jessica Castro and Andrew Frank serving as executive producers and Jessica Castro as showrunner.
