"Omg when I say this resort makes you want to stay forever I mean that. Literally ALL THE STAFF were nice and helpful, food was so good, and views from our room was amazing! The resort was also super clean and I felt safe at all times! Would 100% go back when visiting Antigua. If I could give this resort more than 5 stars I would."

"The bad; The resort is showing its age, especially in the rooms. Our room (102) features a security chain that doesn't work, French doors that have gaps and are difficult to close. The key for the back door doesn't work. The AC drains behind the paint on the wall inside the room. Big gap under the front door. No vent fan in the bathroom. One dim twin light in the bathroom. Shower head leaks. There's a PVC pipe for the towel holder. There are renovations going on in the common areas. Hopefully the rooms come soon. It would be nice if there more fans in the dining areas. Of the 5 fans in the main dining area, 4 were reversed and essentially useless. No fans at Sea Grapes. There's not always a sea breeze. It was so hot one evening that we took our dinner to go. No coffee available before 7am. I know, I know. First world problems...
The good; the entire staff is amazing. Friendly. Helpful. Professional. Tip them. Yes, you tip at an all-inclusive. Google it. One taxi ride though the island and you'll understand why. The grounds are amazing even though they need some tending. The beaches were flawless. The pool is gorgeous. The food is good. Not excellent but good. The breakfast station cooks are on point. The bar was very hit or miss.
Overall? Absolutely go.
Hawksbill, please give the Americans a self serve drip coffee bar and a black washcloth. Iykyk. Also, sterilize all your cats. We love your cats. Put a donation box for their care and we'll donate."
"Beautiful beach! We toured the other side of the island and were very happy we chose Jolly beach. Calm, clear Caribbean water!
The staff were all great! The hotel structure could use some tlc but was clean. Housekeeping upon request. We were just there 4 nights so we didn't request anything other than clean towels.
Cocktails were excellent. Buffet had something for everyone (group of 9). Can't wait to go back!!
Shout out to Margaret and Monique for going above & beyond with coordinating our stay & excursions! Bartender Eleahya..spelling prob not correct but she was "our girl"!
Can't wait to go back!! I don't believe there's a better bargain out there!"
"I was at this hotel for 7 nights during a conference with some relaxation after. In the centre of St John's this isn't a beach hotel. Very convenient if you want to be in town. Friendly staff and spacious rooms. Good value for the price and hotel rating."
"Spent our honeymoon there, our room was upgraded for us which was very nice.
All inclusive Breakfast, lunch, Dinner and drinks were delicious.
Rooms were clean, housekeeping came daily.
Beaches were ok, lots of seaweed. But amazing ocean view.
Overall stay was great. I would visit again for our anniversary.
Service staff and taxi drivers were very polite, welcoming and knowledgeable about the island :)"
"Fabulous hotel. Rooms are very well decorated and very well equipped for cooking if you want to cook. Staff are all lovely. Oscar is a lovely young man and very friendly. Well placed for the beach and eating at Salt Plage. Straight out of the gate and your sunbed awaits. Very nice swimming pool as well"
"Food and service were outstanding, 5 star. We liked that the menus changed daily, particularly for dinner. Didn’t come across a single staff member that was not friendly, they genuinely seemed to care that we were happy and everyone was more than happy to talk with us. Bartenders made great drinks, not watered down and it was top shelf. We were there October 21-27, beach was pretty much empty. Property is very well kept. The beach is not like a lake, it does have waves, which we liked. Gym was nice, had what we needed.
If I had any suggestions to make, enforce dress code at night (pants and shoes are required for men, but many wore shorts and flip flops to dinner) and the rooms could use a little updating (e.g., no bathroom exhaust fan), but they definitely were perfectly fine. These are very minor things.
Thanks to all the staff for making it such a great vacation. We will be back next year, if not sooner!"
"A bif difficult to get our room clean. We requested 2 cleanings for the week but they did not come the second time. I let housekeeping know she aaid we were not on the schedule. We were able to pick up towels. This was the only issue and the view sure made up for it."

The Verandah Antigua - All Inclusive - Adults Only
8/10 Good
"The property seems dated but its well maintained. The staff is AMAZING. The grounds are BEAUTIFUL. There is a good variety of food....you won't go hungry no matter what time it is. It's a very large property but there's cart transportation thats always available. What can be improved? (1) There is no ATM on the property, we had to venture out to find one....scary (2) its an all-inclusive resort but you have to pay to have your in-room fridge stocked...why? (3) booking our scuba dive was cumbersome...they don't offer assistance at the resort and all of the diving is on the other side of the island...approx $100 in taxi fees. Still it was a wonderful vacation and we would visit again."
