Simply a terrible place that I would strongly advise avoiding at all costs. The bedrooms are incredibly basic with a very depressing rundown American motel vibe, that was made worse when the AC (for the whole block) stopped working on the 3rd night of our 7 night stay. Cleaning service is an extra charge! However, this was not the worse part of our stay! The all-inclusive food offering was absolutely awful together with the unfriendly staff service. On many occasions the buffet food trays were empty and never seemed to get refilled regularly and when they did, it attracted long queues as everyone searched for something to eat. The fresh fruit salad offering at breakfast consisted in the main of only 3 types of melon, sausages and bacon were also in rare supply too. A lucky day when you found them. In addition for the hunt for food, you also had to hunt for bowls, cups and glasses. Don't bother to ask the staff, they had a habit of never returning. I found it easier doing the search myself. Also be prepared for the long queues at the bars. The hotel appeared to operate a system of just having a single member of staff serve drinks even at the peak lunch and dinner times, you'll be waiting for a least 30 minutes. The feeling you got from this resort was neglect in every way from the poor room accommodation and lack of amenities such as pool umbrellas and working sun loungers, to poor service that felt deliberate in order to save costs. We felt scammed!

This is the absolute worst hotel ever. I would not suggest anyone stay here. If you are looking for a place that is run down, and the staff are very rude, this is your place. Our room was filthy, with bugs everywhere and sand all over the place. The TV did not work, the AC did not work. The food at the buffet is hardly edible. We complained to the front desk, and they acted like somehow the rrom being dirty was not their fault and the AC not working was out of their control, nothing they could do about it. We ended up leaving after being at the property for maybe 4 hours total. Please do your research first. This is an absolutely horrible place to stay, and i highly recommend going somewhere else. Be warned

Antigua resorts are expensive but this resort is reasonably priced. Is it a 5 Star hotel, no, but you can have a really great time here. The staff was always friendly. The food was good, accommodations were good and the beach is GORGEOUS. The pools are also very nice. We would definitely stay here again.

The room was small and dated, but we expected that when booking. We came for the sun and sand. The bed was comfortable and clean. The buffet was good, but sometimes we did have to wait for it be restocked. The check in process was simple and the ladies were friendly. We did stand in line for food and drinks but if you hit it at the right time it wasn't too long. Our a/c didn't work and the third floor room we stayed in was very hot at night. Our shower always had hot water and pressure but after talking to a few other guests that didn't seem to be consistent with other rooms. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but we had low expectations from the start. It is a 3 star resort afterall.

Staff is always helpful. It’s not Disney, so don’t expect smiles as staff walk by, but bartenders and front desk and some at buffet are really great. Room could use an overhaul and wouldn’t recommend if you’re traveling with anyone expecting a 4 star room experience.

Our power went off and the air conditioning didn’t work very well. We requested a refrigerator because I had medicine that requires refrigeration. It took them two days. I had to keep it on ice in the meantime. The receptionist that checked us in was very rude, I didn’t appreciate that. I am on vacation. The rooms were very old and nothing worked. The tv was even fuzzy, like an old antenna. I am requesting a credit for this $4000 trip. At least something for all the hassle.

Lost power five times in 11days. Virtually no menu changes from day to day or week to week. Rooms are tiny with no drawers to allow for unpacking, but we were aware of that prior to going. Bars were under staffed and extremely slow. Now the upside. There are some good dinner spots options in the harbor and more coming. The beach is fantastic although the chairs are old. In summation, they say you get what you pay for, I guess I expect too much, like electricity, food choices and reasonable service.

Resort was very dated rooms were on the small side. The pool maintenance was poor. There were dead cockroaches, and dead gecko along with a lot of debris in the pool and it was cleaned the following day after I complained about it. There’s only two bars open during the day and both are at the one end of the resort, leaving the other end, booze free. Beach was beautiful lots of loungers and chairs and Palapas. Dinner buffet was OK. Lunch buffet was poor. We needed to eat at the outside grill pretty much for all of our lunches. Breakfast buffet was good, but ran out of orange juice ran out of bacon quite often, several days in a row. There is one à la carte Italian and we ate there twice and enjoyed the meals.

The fact that the resort is extremely dated i was able to over look at first. However it's all the issues that came after check in. Power outages, wiring concerns, not able to turn on/off ac, screen doors not working, NO entertainment, food and drink options are lacking. No clearly laid out rules/process. Beach chairs and canopies are falling apart. The outdoor wiring is sketchy at best. There are only 2 outlets in the rooms and one you need for the fridge. Showers are very small. Love the island but won't go back to jolly beach
