The workers was ok. Some of them had nasty attitudes and didn't greet you . There no entertainment, restaurants states open daily and isn't. Have to make reservations for restaurants that's open daily and have to make reservations for the Pizza restaurant the day before and before 7:30am . When I got up early the next day to make reservations the lady at the desk said " the restaurant isn't open today " but mind you I asked the day before and the lady told me it will be open the next , which it wasn't. The dinner was horrible not alot of selection. There's no late snacks options.. The pool bar closed at 4;45 daily. The coffee selection horrible only regular milk no creamer or flavored coffee. Cups was dirty. Room is old fashion.. The resort is boring and I will never go back to Antigua

Cons: They lied about reservation being paid upon arrival - had to email them proof that I had already been charged! 20 minute check in process Old, outdated grounds and rooms No where to place clothes in room, lived out of suitcase No housekeeping - had to request new towels and sheets and make our beds myself. Mini fridge only on request Young staff, reception and some bartenders were miserable and mean. Poor staff communication - messed up our dinner reservation (only had one). Tried to charge us for food/drinks at Mangrove even though all-inclusive. Not much entertainment except at night for a few hours. Wouldn't allow extended checkout despite empty resort and had to fight with reception to get another room for a few hours. Charged $50 extra. Pros: Pools and grounds kept extremely clean, despite being oudated. Older staff, kitchen staff, bellboys super nice! A la carte dinner was excellent. Drinks were made well most of the time. Coconut Grill food was great! Resort had max 40-50 guests on any given day. Plenty of beach and pool chairs everywhere. The saving grace for this resort was the pool and the beach. One of the most beautiful, perfect settings you could ever visit in the Caribbean. Wouldn't go back to this resort because they don't seem to want you there, but would definitely go to the beach again and again.

Beach was fantastic. Food was good. The rooms were not what they looked like in the pictures not very spacious, showers were very small, old showerheads. The bathroom door was broken. Still very outdated definitely has potential to be an amazing resort. If you definitely do go here it would be for the beach

Would highly recommend for a budget traveler. Amenities are great. The pool bar and the beach was the highlight of my stay. Staff are incredible helpful and polite. Cheers to the folks at the evening bar, they were absolutely awesome, the best folks you’ll ever meet!! Property is undergoing some upgrades and it’s needed but the walkways and areas around the property are well maintained. The food was good it will do, they had the normal options.

The food was really good. It’s on a public beach so locals would constantly harass you to buy things. One followed me into the water to sell a “boat ride”. It’s dangerous and run down outside the resort so we only left once for an excursion. Would I go back? No. For the price there are way better places.

The property was very old and needs a lot of work. The beach was really nice. Despite the shower is tiny. The water that comes out of the pipe was amazingly good.
