We booked a room at this hotel after missing our flight home to Toronto. We arrived at night and since the property is in a rural area, there were swarms of bugs in the evening and the surrounding area isn’t well lit. There is a place to buy food water and snacks nearby but it’s a 15 min walk and the food we tried wasn’t that great (oily and salty). Other than that we enjoyed our stay. The hosts were warm and welcoming, the room was clean and comfortable and it had all the amenities we needed for the night including AC and hot water. There is a Smart TV in the room so you can connect your streaming accounts and the bed was very comfortable - slept great. If you want to try island living for a while, I can see this place being ideal for longer stays as well (especially if you rent a vehicle).

My husband and l stayed a night and when we arrived Donna and Ann were waiting. Everything was nice and clean and they were very welcoming. We will most definitely stay with them again when we visit the island. We walked to a near by restaurant and also to a grocery store that was about 3 blocks walk. We even talked with a few of the locals along the way. Thank you, Antigua Seaview for a wonderful comfortable first night!! See you on our next visit

A brilliant hotel in a great location.
We only had one at in Antigua as we were travelling on to Monserrat so we chose to stay near the airport. We could not have chosen a better hotel. Donna arranged our transfers and a fabulous breakfast before she took us for the early flight to Monserrat. Our room at Seaview was really great - a mini apartment with a lovely terrace where we ate and took in the sea views. We look forward to returning to appreciate more of what Antigua has to offer.

Clean tidy and actually pretty good value for what you pay. Location is good there is a supermarket about 8 minutes walk away and I walked into town which was easily achievable. I would definitely use sea view again . Note cost of taxi at weekends will be higher than advertised. Annie the lady that looks after the place was very helpful.

Firstly, the property was really clean and everything worked well. The place is so very near to the beach, big supermarket. The staff are very well trained. The owner is a gem, makes you feel like family. I would stay here at every visit to Antigua. I stayed at several places all along seafront but this one has the edge. Really impressed.

Not near any facilities so at mercy of taxis and owner Cost rockets as a result. Sheets not cotton so uncomfortable. Cups provided little bigger than eggcups. Not a good choice unless you have your own transportation.

Hi Kate, It seems you have the wrong property. We are two minutes from restaurants and about 5 minutes from supermarket. The beach and city are within walking distance. Transportation is an added service, however taxis are available at a little higher rate than our service. Also, the demi-tasse on the counter are for coffee lovers. There is a cupboard filled with dishes, cups/mugs, glasses, wine-glasses etc. I think you got us confused with somewhere else.

Comfortable Stay
This property is located close to Dickenson Bay beach, though given the heat it's probably too far for most to walk to it. A supermarket is 15 minute walk away. The room is very well equipped and quite comfortable. I had an upstairs unit and didn't even need the air con, simply opening the windows allowed the cool air through. And I didn't see any mozzies, I guess because the fly wire screens were in good condition and kept them out. The only complaint I would have is that all the fees aren't included in the price. The $10 USD extra cleaning fee per night is a bit strange considering the cleaner doesn't even work on Sundays. But overall I would recommend this property, the host was nice and communicated well.

My flight came in late at night instead of during the daytime and Arianne still came to open up the room for me and make sure I was comfortable. Donna contacted me by email to make sure that everything was allright. I only stayed one night, but I would go back again.

Not quite as described
If it wasn't for my taxi driver I may have been sat on a door step for a couple of hours as there was no one else there and the office was locked. I also had to pay by cash for the full amount as card was not accepted.the room I had was a bit dated and I didn't feel very secure as a sole traveler and the bath tub wasn't really a bath tub.
Dear Anonymous Guest, We appreciate your feed-back. You did request an early check-in. We did try to contact you by telephone to get your arrival time so that someone could be there to meet and greet you, however we did not receive an answer when we called. We accept that we did require payment by cash and also offered the option for you to pay by PayPal as we were yet to arrange and finalize how to accept deposits and payments via credit card on this travel site. We apologize if this caused you any inconvenience. This issue has since been resolved and we are now able to process credit card payments. We do have bathtubs in the rooms and trust that this was an error in your feed-back. We can confidently state that any fears or concern you might have had about safety were absolutely misplaced as the neighbourhood is very quiet and peaceful as we are sure you realized and we also have security features in place. We do appreciate the night you spent with us and trust that you were comfortable. Best regards, Antigua seaview team

Espectacular place very clean very quiet. Very nice rooms, well equipped, air conditioning is amazing, towels, sheets pillows all brand new and clean. I am a very allergic person and I didn’t feel any allergies while I was there. Really nice shower the outside view is amazing I would recommend it to anybody traveling to Antigua there is a close supermarket and in the apartments you have all the necessary equipment for cooking that makes you feel like you are at home I would definitely go back there.
