About the location

St. John’s, Antigua's colourful capital, is perched on the northern coast of the island, covering four square miles of markets, restaurants and candy-coloured buildings. Architectural styles jostle for dominance here – the city skyline is a mosaic of bright Caribbean buildings punctuated by its most important monument, the neo-baroque St. John’s Cathedral. Everywhere you turn, St. John’s is mixing vibrant heritage with an upmarket crowd, from Redcliffe Quay’s swanky shops and restaurants to the Saturday morning fruit markets. The city is fantastic for shopping (it’s big on duty-free luxury goods), and the elegant bars and restaurants contribute to an upbeat vibe after dark.

Relaxed, chilled paradise

AnnaBev70, York, United Kingdom

Nov 12 2024

This hotel is everything you’d want from a 5* Caribbean resort - relaxed glamour!! We were lucky to get an upgrade on our room which was a lovely surprise. The Cove suites are spacious, beautifully appointed and the view is stunning. There is everything you’d wish for and want. The bed is incredibly comfortable, with quality bed linen. The bathroom is also large with a great and constantly hot shower/water. Very welcome after a day lounging in the sun. There is an abundance of soft, fluffy towels, both bathroom and beach - one thing to note is the hairdryer wasn’t great - I’ve got thin hair and it took ages so it maybe worth bringing your own if you have a thick head of hair. The venue itself is like a great, leafy haven - so many plants, trees and flowers everywhere. The staff are amazing and very good at their roles - Pearl, Sparkle, Dan and Rocky to name but a few are just lovely people - cheerful, attentive and smiley - Antiguans are genuinely happy, kind people which made our holiday. All the many staff are a credit to the hotel and make it the place it is. Excellent on all fronts. Food on the whole is good thou we had a couple of not so good experiences too. Breakfast is delicious with plenty of cold and hot choices. The Reef is popular for lunch and the food is really yummy with a varied choice of dishes in a lovely setting overlooking the bay. The Palm is where breakfast is held and you can have lunch/ dinner there too. We didn’t have lunch but did go for dinner several times. A small menu (that’s a positive) the food was delicious, attractively plated and portions were just right. A relaxed ambience which is why we enjoyed going there. We struggled a bit with the Cove - this is clearly meant to be the more formal restaurant but neither the food or service lived up to expectations and it just didn’t feel right. The staff struggled when it was busy, the food wasn’t great quality and it lacked atmosphere and ambience. We did try Papa Zouk which the hotel arranged for us, we would recommend going especially for the Red Snapper. We also experienced one of the boat rides - so worth it - Dan and Rocky were spot on, we had a great day out seeing other parts of the island. We went all inclusive which on the whole was good but the quality of some of the drinks especially the wines etc were not great quality which was a shame especially as I would think the clientele would expect better. Also, we didn’t realise that the all inclusive stops at 12 noon the day you leave. Not a deal breaker for us as we were leaving at 2pm but for some other guests who weren’t leaving until the end of the day, this does feel a little mean spirited and not the best lasting impression of a fabulous hotel. All in all we were thoroughly impressed with the hotel, we loved our stay and everything about it and hope to return next year. One final comment - Julia and the other GM’s are very professional, thoughtful and lovely to deal with. Just brilliant!!
