Best Resorts in Antigua and Barbuda

"We celebrated our 5-year anniversary at Galley Bay at the end of May/beginning of June. We’d like to celebrate benchmark years and our stay at Galley Bay exceeded our already high expectations. It was the perfect stay to mark the occasion (and it would for any other, really). Taking the taxi from the airport was no fuss, but don’t worry about how Antiguans drive - it’s how they drive here and it works. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a Rum Punch and a beautiful view down the bridge that crosses over the lagoon. The grounds are exquisitely manicured and a bike ride or walk is recommended. Our room was clean, on the sand, and literally opened to the water. Nothing beats waking up with a view of the beautiful bay and rocks on the distance. Facilities were well-kept for a coastal property. Restaurants were comfortable and had beautiful views onto the bay. (Review is brief - Expedia’s word limit.) When it comes to staff, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I will say not to expect every staff member to be overly eager to serve you, but they will still get the job done. Watersports guys were great. Tafari treated us extremely well. Ebony from the farm was amazing. Captain Sean’s outings are a must! And Shirley Heights is a great party atmosphere and an amazing view. Ismay’s is exquisite. Food all-around was delicious. Keep in mind that this is the perfect place to relax, not party, though there is live music nightly. Snorkeling in the bay is great."

"The staff were amazing and so nice. Property and water was beautiful. The day bed was the best thing because it is easy to get sunburnt here!"

"We had an amazing mother daughter trip at the Royalton Chic Antigua at the end of May. WOW! What a place. The staff are all incredibly friendly and we were impressed by the caliber of the resort considering that it opened just a few weeks ago. There were plenty of restaurant options and we were happy with the food. The VIBE team, Bartenders and CHIC dancers were so talented and SO MUCH FUN! The foam pool party Saturday afternoon was epic! Everyone from the front desk staff to the bell boys, room attendants and maintenance workers were so kind. A special shout out to ELVIS, our personal trainer and water aerobics instructor, who inspired us to exercise daily and have a heck of a lot of fun while doing so. He is amazing and the gym equipment is top notch. This was one of the highlights of our stay. Keep up the good work everyone! "

"The multiple beaches/restaurants and the arrangement with the sister property (Pineapple Resort) was fantastic. All staff provided excellent customer service and went out their way to make sure we were taken care of. We could not compliment the property's general manager enough on how impressed we were with the property and staff. We've been to a number of Caribbean resorts, and this is one of the best."

"A very beautiful location. The staff was very helpful. Good food. Rooms should be provided with wifi. Better working air condition."

"The Management and Staff were exceptional. We were greeted with endless smiles and house pets who were most adorable. The team gifted us a bottle for champagne since it was a birthday celebration. The service was impeccable. We asked for late check out because we wanted to take advantage of the 2 beaches and the 24hrs salt water pool more (really we won't ready to leave). Breakfast was 10/10. Drinks 10/10. "

"Property is beautiful! Rooms very clean and modern. Everyone we encountered at resort were very friendly and welcoming."

"Beautiful, slower pace property! Not for those looking to party! Everything was lovely! "

"Absolutely fantastic! This resort checked all the boxes. Great chill vibe with a true authentic feel of Antigua. The service from the front desk to the bars to the restaurant was top notch. Shout out to Jerraime (concierge), Derrick (bartender), and Cheryl (server) for making every day special. Our gin and sodas never tasted so good. Front desk management was approachable and extremely helpful whenever we needed anything. Overall, A+ couples destination to relax with an amazing location, food, and drinks. "
