Royalton Antigua, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort
It was really nice. The food was really good and had a great variety. There was a lot of miscommunication with times of business with the restaurants. Some areas were a little outdated but wouldn’t stop me from coming back. I would come back and next time stay longer.
