Blue Waters Hotel, located in Soldiers Bay, Antigua, was first opened in 1960 as The Blue Waters Beach Hotel by Osmond Kelsick, a Royal Air Force airman noted as the only Antiguan squadron leader in World War II.

In 1995 the hotel was severely damaged by Hurricane Luis and was closed to undergo extensive refurbishment costing $9 million.
