Hotel terbaik di Five Islands Village

Apologies for repeating the WelshGirlCardiff review from Aug 2022 - but she is spot on! Hawksbill is a 3-star resort and does not pretend to be a 5-star 'Sandals' resort with regimentally lined beach umbrellas hiding the natural beauty of the Caribbean coastline. The four beaches each offer something slightly different from easy swimming areas, to rocky snorkelling opportunities and the beautiful clothing optional Eden beach. The latter is the longest and less than ten people on the beach at any one time. A water was available from the cooler brought down from the resort. The food variety was fine and plenty of it, with catering and table staff friendly and accommodating. The requirement to book you evening meal preference was no issue with no strict enforcement, probably just an efficient way of gauging the cooking requirements for the evening. Vegetarians may feel aggrieved at the choice but for us this was not an issue! Caribbean flavours served throughout the day with the bars serving a variety of local cocktails along with the more familiar ones. All served with smiles and friendliness. The little Sugar Mill shop in an old Martello Tower on the resort sold tobacco, drink and souvenirs with a lovely helpful lady always chatting away and cheerful. Natural beauty oozes through the resort with goats roaming, pigs visiting the beach to cool down, the occasional mongoose scampering around, ducks scavenging with a variety of birds providing birdsong and occasionally raiding the sugar sachets in the rooms if you left the door open! The two cats collectively having 7 and a half legs, know how to cajole guests for some nibbles. There are many reviews pointing out specific issues they had with the resort: Paul M - You have to pay for water?? If you have a bottle there is free water from water coolers around the resort. Chervil R - Slow WIFI? It worked, but you have Caribbean beaches, azure blue sea and sunshine is this really an issue? Comments about staff being rude and unhelpful must have been visiting a different place! We booked the all-inclusive 14 day break through a British Airways package. Airport taxi transfer was efficient with a guided tour all the way to the resort. Welcome at the resort was friendly, informative and we were escorted to our beach front bungalow. 12 steps to the beach, 18 steps to the sea. Yes, the rooms were a little tired and the resort was closing for 5 months for a refurbishment, but did it matter. No, not one bit.

Good day, I hope everyone reading this is in good health, let me start by saying when i got to the hotel and checked in, it was then disclosed to me the hotel is under renovations and the elevator is not working! After climbing three flight of stairs got to room which was clean and well made, there was two towels and one wash cloth for two people, fine. Went back down to front desk to ask questions and was met by Carlos that seemed more occupied with a security issue and talking on his phone on whattsap. I asked this gentleman if there was any water available for sale, his response was NAH IT HAVE ALL KIND OF PLACE OUTSIDE OPEN YOU CAN BUY WATER OUT THERE!! Fine. Told them tv is not working the next morning and can i have fresh towels with Two wash cloths, on my return from meetings at 1:30 pm that was not done. I walked back down the 3 flight of stairs and made requests again, also told the front desk personnel i was going to get a quick lunch and could this be completed before my wife gets back from her meeting, i was assured it would be done. 2 hours later on return to the room the ac was turned off and the tv was still not working, so i called the front desk to complain yet again, sat on porch to have lunch ( this is after turning ac back on ) for about half an hour before my wife went inside and told me be careful when you come inside the room is FLOODING!!! and to my surprise to room was flooding from the ac! I have video proof of my wife with the house keepers mop and bucket trying to save the day. I immediately went back down to the front desk to show the staff the video, and actually raised my voice when Carlos now asked, DO YOU NEED SOME ASSISTANCE ??????? I ASKED REALLY !!!!!!! I been screaming that from last night!!!! Then the angel of mercy came to my assistance, Latoya!!! This young lady went above and beyond to accommodate us, She even went out of her way to take us to our new hotel ( The Royalton ) which was an amazing experience. This hotel will lose a great asset if this young lady was to leave. All in all I would not recommend this GOVERNMENT MANAGED HOTEL to anyone until all major renovations in what could be an amazing hotel. Regards Lincoln Adams

Connie’s Comfort Suites was a great find at a great price... would definitely stay here again! A great base to explore the island. Connie’s has fantastically friendly people that make you feel at home and everything I needed including comfortable bed, kitchen area (fridge/freezer, oven/hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, well stocked with utensils, plates, cutlery, etc), dining table/chairs, sofa, TV and good WiFi (video calls). They also offer laundry service. Little shop next door for basics and big supermarket/pharmacy at Wood’s Mall in 10min walk. Food options Toy toys &KFC within 5min walk and st John’s center in 20min. I used QuikServe app (similar to Uber eats) to have food delivered to the room ! They also have rental cars which brings closest beach within 5min drive. Great find and feel that I’ve seen the local side of Antigua that you wouldn’t get at an all-inclusive beach front resort. Tip: some of the big resorts offer day passes if you want to lounge by a pool for a day while in Antigua.

We had a wonderful stay with Jacquie and her team at the villas at sunset lane. The rooms and bathrooms were large,well equipped with comfy beds and efficient a/c and ceiling fan. Jacquie is an amazing host and an excellent cook. Continental breakfasts were lovely but we did treat ourselves to omelettes for breakfast a couple of times and they were amazing. We also ate dinner at the villas in two occasions and they were very tasty. We certainly didn't go hungry. The villas are very clean and the staff team are friendly and helpful. Pool is lovely and also kept extremely clean. Jacquie is a perfect host who helped with sorting out the puncture we got on our hire car plus made dinner reservations and excursion reservations. The area is quiet but is 10 mins walk from the beach and a short drive into St Johns. Best rum punch on the island!!! I would definitely stay there again.
