Large home, central location

The home was large and comfortable, and we enjoyed several afternoons by the pool watching the hummingbirds — lovely place to sit out. Alastair and Hazel were very helpful and accommodating, we appreciated that very much. The house is in a great central location — close to beaches, grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Along with this proximity to some neighboring nightspots, we did have some issues with noise late at night on the weekends.

good but could be excellent

First, the pros. Alastair was quick to respond to all queries and was also able to supply lots of information about the island. The villa is very spacious, 3 large on suite bedrooms, excellent outdoor space and grounds, perfect for a family or group of friends. Close to some of the best beaches on the island and of course the supermarket at Jolly harbour Now the cons. Villa is beginning to look tired and needs a bit of a revamp, the white goods need replacing, fridge /freezer has shelves missing and both the dishwasher and BBQ have seen better days. Also the drawers in all the bedroom dressers collapse when pulled open, they just fall of the runners However, the worst thing about the villa and which is beyond the control of the owner is the noise from the beach bars opposite, if you wish to be awake till 2am each night listing to loud thumping music and very bad karaoke then fine if not then I would highly recommend looking elsewhere.

The outside area for this villa was amazing. We lived out there! From the pool to the bbq to the shaded seating, it worked so well for us. We rented a car so it was easy for us to get places, but there were restaurants right across the street and a food market around the corner. The bedrooms were all large and comfortable and the 3 ensuites were such an added bonus! Both the owner and the property manager were in touch with me many times and the manager is just a text away!

Beautiful Antigua

We had a great time at Ffryes house. Both the owner and the local property manager were very responsive. The house is large, beautifully decorated, and offers a lot of privacy. The pool was clean and refreshing, One can walk to several restaurants across the street, and there are 5 amazing beaches within 5 min drive (Jolly, Valley Church, FFryers, Darkwood, and Turner). Walking to the beach is possible, but very unpleasant because the 15 min walk is along a busy main road with no sidewalks. The owner told us during booking that we would benefit from renting a car, and he was right. We rented the car on the second day. Finally, there were some issues with appliances (stove and fridge) that the local property manager tried to address right away, but there were tricky to fix. My guess is that they would be fixed my the next stay. Also, keep in mind that the only toiletries provided are the hand soap and some toilet paper, but the supermarket is very close for buying the rest. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

A Delightful Stay in Jolly Harbor

We recently stayed at the Ffrye's House, Hamilton Estates, Jolly Harbor. The house is wonderful (with a few exceptions; see below). We were greeted by Hazel who gave us a thorough welcome tour before we settled in. We didn't rent a car the first two days, so being able to walk to the Epicurean market was a huge plus and we were able to find everything we needed there. The only negatives (and they were not deal breakers) was some inconsitency in water pressure and hot water in the bathrooms; the other issue was the difficulty in walking to a beach. We knew in advance that this would be an issue, but it was still a challenge. Once we had a car, we were able to visit several of the other beautiful beaches on the island. All in all, we loved our stay there would encourage others to enjoy it as much as we did.

Lovely villa

The villa is really well maintained, clean and high spec. Located just outside holly harbour next to the sugar ridge hotel with some bars and restaurants on the other side of the road. No sea view but a pretty mature garden and lovely pool. We went in August so it was pretty quiet!
