The Mill Reef Club is a 1,500-acre members-only club that includes five miles of shoreline and three islands on the east coast of Antigua.

The Club was founded in 1947 by Connecticut architect Robertson 'Happy' Ward (1897–1988), with initial capital of $38,000. There were 45 founding members, each paying $7,500 for a plot for building a home. A clubhouse was constructed in 1949, and a 9-hole golf course in 1952. Today, there are 53 homes. The clubhouse and beach cottages can accommodate 100 guests. In 2013 the Club established the Mill Reef Yacht Club, which hosts international sailing regattas on Nonsuch Bay, Antigua.

Early Club members included Archibald MacLeish, Dean Acheson and Paul Mellon, who later named his champion horse Mill Reef for the club. Early Club rules reflected a British style that required coats and ties at dinner and whites on the tennis and croquet courts. Ostentatious displays of wealth were discouraged by a $25,000 limit on home construction costs and a 2-bedroom limit to houses (no longer in force). Membership was by invitation only, either through existing members or by Ward encouraging travel agents to pass on the details of high-end clients who would contribute to his vision of “a Caribbean community of blue waters, white beaches and sweeping vistas dedicated to good fellowship.”

The Antiguan government welcomed its wealthy, publicity-shy guests, and when paparazzi attempted to photograph Jacqueline Kennedy from an adjacent public beach, they were arrested and deported.

The Club and its residents were criticized in A Small Place, a 1988 book by Jamaica Kincaid, which noted that ordinary Antiguans stood no chance of entry to the Club or accessing the beautiful beaches unless as staff.

Since 1960 The Mill Reef Fund has distributed over US $9 million to worthy organizations in Antigua and Barbuda.

Ruined prom for my senior
Size: 3X-Large, Color: Bright Purple
• The seller's failure to cancel an order, despite promising to do so, resulted in the buyer ordering a replacement item and incurring extra costs. • Poor communication and unhelpful customer service from Amazon led to significant frustration and disappointment, impacting multiple important events. • The buyer will no longer use Amazon. Awful material EXTREMELY WRINKLED ill fitting. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND YOUR SANITY!!! DONT RECOMMENDED EVER!!!!

Booted & Suited
Color: Black, Size: Small, Color: Black, Size: Small
This is my 3rd son & my last to do the "prom" thing. Usually we go on a popular store chain website where you usually have to buy everything ala individually. Here I could get everything I need, 3 piece suit, button up shirt,black velvet loafers, and a wrist corsage for her & a Boutonniere for him all here on Amazon with money to spare. The suit needed a little steaming and we did have his pants hemmed we listened to the other ppl on here & realized this obviously runs very large so we reluctantly ordered a small when he usually wears a Men's medium. We were very happy because the fit looks tailor made to me so size down. If you're on the way more slender side get a XS. This runs very large my son is 5"11 and works out consistently & is approximately 155-160 lbs. The material was wonderful Nice not some weird material what you would expect for a suit/tux .I love the satin lined lapel that added some extra flair...we opted to wear a thick chain instead of the bow tie that it did come with a lot of ppl said they didn't get one, well we did. Everything in the pic on my son came from Amazon (except his Girlfriend's dress) even his unique Boutonniere & her corsage that are made from faux flowers to keep forever. I love this suit, this price, and most of all the quality you might as well just buy it because renting it is about the same price & this one you get to keep!

Decent Slim Fit Tux
Color: Midnight Black, Size: Large
This will work. In ordering the tux I don't recall seeing the set advertised as slim fit but it definitely is. My husband is 6'2" and 185 lbs. and is a runner. This suit just fits. The pants are thankfully long enough (he wears a 34/34) and the vest fits well however there doesn't seem to be an inch to spare in the jacket. He says it feels fine on, doesn't feel too snug, so that's all that matters. He needed a tux for a black tie wedding we'll be attending next month and this will fit the bill at a good price for something he'll likely never wear again. Note: the Suit comes folded up in a plastic bag and will need to be pressed before wearing.
