Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing time at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly spacious, with a huge bathroom that had a double shower. The yurt-like structures for the bedroom and bathroom, along with the walk-in closet, made it feel like a luxurious vacation spot. The service was top-notch, with special arrangements like a private dinner on the beach for our anniversary. The location was perfect, offering a relaxing atmosphere and easy access to the lively town of St John's. However, the dining experience could be a bit chaotic due to birds around the tables. Overall, a great place for a vacation getaway!
My stay at the hotel was absolutely amazing! The rooms were enormous, perfectly air-conditioned, and had a private balcony facing the beach, offering a great view. They were very comfortable with a king-size bed, a lounge area, and a fridge restocked with a couple of beers and soft drinks daily. The service was friendly and welcoming, despite the no tipping policy, which I really enjoyed. The location, sandwiched by a large lagoon and a long sandy beach, was like a peaceful oasis with lush vegetation and impressive flora. The dining experience exceeded my expectations with fantastic food in a beautiful setting. Overall, a wonderful stay with some minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful! The beachfront cottage I stayed in was spacious with a lovely bathroom featuring 2 showers, always kept sparkling clean by the housekeeping team. While the rooms were not fancy, they were large, consistently clean, and extremely comfortable. I especially enjoyed that they occasionally televised American sports games in addition to cricket matches.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were both spacious and spotless, offering a wonderful view of the ocean. The service was beyond excellent, with attentive and well-trained staff. The location, right on a beautiful beach, was truly amazing. The dining experience was good, especially with the delicious omelets served. Overall, a great choice for anyone seeking a beachfront resort with caring staff.
The hotel offers impeccably clean and well-equipped rooms, albeit showing some wear and tear, but in need of refurbishing for the price paid. The service is top-notch with a personal touch, even ensuring safe travels upon departure. The spacious location right on the beach provides a tranquil setting to unwind. Dining options are diverse and delightful, with unique daily pancake offerings. The facilities are well-maintained and cater to guests' needs effectively.
The hotel is nestled in a stunning location by a 3/4 mile long sandy beach in a quiet part of Antigua, well-maintained and plush surroundings. The rooms, especially the Gauguin and Ismay's, are exquisite and among the best in the resort. However, the dining experience could be improved as birds freely roam around the dining area, and the seagulls caused some disturbance during our meals.
