    🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The Best Trip Ever – Unforgettable Staff & Stunning Experience! I stayed at Hawksbill Resort in Antigua, and I can honestly say it was one of the best trips of my life. The resort itself is beautiful—calm, peaceful, and surrounded by breathtaking views and the most amazing beaches—but what truly made it special was the staff. I especially want to shout out Gerald from the watersports team. He went above and beyond to make sure every moment was fun, safe, and unforgettable. He was so kind, professional, and genuinely passionate about what he does. His energy made every activity feel exciting, even if it was your first time trying something new. His coworker (I wish I had his name!) was just as incredible—together they created such a welcoming and friendly vibe that made you feel like more than just a guest. Whether it was helping with paddleboarding, snorkeling, or just checking in to make sure everything was okay, they really stood out. The entire staff at Hawksbill were kind and accommodating—from housekeeping to front desk—and I’m truly grateful for the warmth they showed me during my stay. I highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for not only a relaxing getaway, but also genuine human connection and service that stays after you leave. Thank you again, Hawksbill family. I’ll definitely be back! 💛 Read less

    We just arrived home from a wonderful 8 day vacation at Hawksbill. We were greeted at reception with cold towels that smelled delightful. Check in went smoothly and we were given 2 rooms next to each other as we requested which was so nice. There were a few issues with our room key, safe and hot water but they were all resolved that evening. The property is beyond stunning. All 4 beaches had their own charm and the grounds were immaculate. The rooms were standard, and could use a few extras like more shelves in the bathrooms to place our toiletry bags. Although the air conditioner kept our room very cool it did drip a lot any time we used the hot shower, so much that we had to have a few towels on the floor at all times. Housekeeping kept our room spotless and were very nice. The towels had a unpleasant smell and feeling and could use some work. The toiletries they supplied were luxurious and we really enjoyed them. The food was good. Some meals better than others. I was very disappointed at the cold coffee at breakfast and finally decided to just stay in our room for that meal and make my own. PDs grill was a nice change, and the food there was exceptional . The food at Seagrapes made it easy for eating while at the beach but the waitresses were not pleasant at all, almost felt like we were a bother. Some of the waitresses at dinner were the same but after the first 2 nights we ended up with Bernadette for the rest of our trip and she was phenomenal. Also Dalston who was a bartender and greeter at dinner made our trip so special. He was warm and welcoming and always made a point to greet us every time we saw him. The water sports that are included are great. We did everything. Jarold took my husband and I out sailing and made it very unique. Fenton who not only ran the water sports but was also the DJ was one of our favorite by far. He was fun and attentive and bonded with our family and will be remembered for years. We did 3 excursions and the young ladies that helped were very knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend stingray bay and horse back riding. The only down fall was the price of taxis. It was outrageous. If the resort could form some sort of agreement and get the fees lowered i think we would have unutilized it more. Over all we highly recommend Hawksbill and will definitely be back next year. Read less

    We stayed at the Palm beach bungalow. It was right on the beach, with a private terrace and sun loungers. This beach is rocky and non swimmable, but the advantage is that it is more private there than on the Seagrape Beach. The disadvantage is bugs. You need to spray or go elsewhere. They seemed to disappear on a windy day though. The room itself… Read more
    We stayed at the Palm beach bungalow. It was right on the beach, with a private terrace and sun loungers. This beach is rocky and non swimmable, but the advantage is that it is more private there than on the Seagrape Beach. The disadvantage is bugs. You need to spray or go elsewhere. They seemed to disappear on a windy day though. The room itself is large. Nothing special, clean and decent. The pillows were hard as rock though. There are 4 beaches. Palm beach is rocky, you cannot swim there. Just looks good. Eden is a nude beach, we didn't see many people there. Honeymoon cove beach is a tiny one, a few people were hanging out there. The main swimmable one is Seagrape beach. Clean water and you can see fish coming close to you. The beach, however, has an incline and it continues to the water. It is quite a drop, not a shallow sea you can walk in for a few meters. They have a nice infinity swimming pool. It is not big but it was never too crowded. Because the resort is on the heal, the view is pretty good from the pool. Food is just ok. I’d say it’s canteen style. We were not hungry but it’s nothing to remember. Coffee is not good, very watery. There is a coffee machine at the restaurant, and you need to ask them to make you a cup, otherwise they will pure you what they have. They also have instant coffee and tea at the restaurant by the beach. If you book with the resort directly, they give you a complimentary taxi voucher for airport transfer. They also stock your minibar daily for free, which was convenient. Read less
