“Best Destination in the Caribbean”

Aug 20, 2026Matt F

It’s been about a year since my husband and I visited Hermitage Bay, and it’s one of those places we keep finding ourselves continually asking, “when do we go back?!” We have experienced many special destinations across the Caribbean, but there is something magical about Hermitage that simply cannot be put into words. The location, views and accommodations are stunning, the food is spectacular, and the service is world-class. One of our favorite parts of each day was gathering on the beach for the sushi happy hour. But what sets this place apart, above everything else, are the people you get to see each day. They embrace you the moment you arrive and make you feel like you’re truly part of a family here. From Jillian, Zoe, Abby and Patricia serving up Chef Sugar’s amazing food in the restaurant, to Kyle attending to anything you need on the beach, Jaquan and Solange always smiling and happy to help at the front desk, Kim keeping the villa spotless, and everyone in between, each of these individuals works extremely hard with a genuine passion to ensure you are having the best stay possible. We were actually sad to say goodbye to everyone when our vacation came to an end, but we knew it wasn’t a “goodbye;” rather, a “see you again soon.” We know this is a special place that we will return to again and again throughout the years. If you’re still searching for the best destination in the Caribbean, look no further… head to Hermitage Bay to experience it for yourself!

“Best luxury all inclusive in the Caribbean”

Aug 11, 2026Polly Maria W

An Unforgettable Stay at Hermitage Bay 🌴✨ Our long weekend at Hermitage Bay was truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by the kind of beauty, tranquility, and genuine hospitality that makes a luxury resort experience memorable. The facility and accommodations are simply beautiful. The property is intimate, peaceful, and incredibly well maintained, with breathtaking views and a natural Caribbean elegance. Our accommodations were comfortable, beautifully appointed, and provided the perfect setting to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of Antigua. But what truly sets Hermitage Bay apart is the people. The staff were warm, attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. We were fortunate to interact with so many wonderful members of the team, and each person contributed to making our stay special: Alicia, Rachel, Michael, Ryan, Martinez, Rihanna, Simone, Anthony, Sandy, Sambieke, Abbasola, Vernon, Sherryann, Zoe, and Lisa. One of the things that impressed me most was how personalized the service was. I made a couple of special food requests — including local Duncana and carrot cake — and the entire team went above and beyond to make sure they happened. They didn’t simply acknowledge the requests; they followed through and made sure we were able to enjoy exactly what we were hoping for. That level of attention to detail truly made us feel cared for. And the food! Every meal was beautifully presented, flavorful, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared. Dining while surrounded by the incredible Caribbean scenery made each meal feel like an experience rather than simply dinner. The ambience is what I will remember most — peaceful, sophisticated, and authentically Caribbean without feeling pretentious. It is the perfect place to slow down, reconnect, and simply enjoy being present. Hermitage Bay exceeded our expectations. The beautiful property, stunning location, exceptional accommodations, delicious food, and — most importantly — the incredible people made this a truly special getaway. Thank you, Hermitage Bay, for an unforgettable experience. Your entire team made us feel welcomed, valued, and genuinely cared for. We will absolutely be back! 🇦🇬❤️🌴 Five stars, without hesitation! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“TAKE ME BACK!”

Aug 11, 2026markfsandiego

Hermitage Bay Review TAKE ME BACK! We’ve been to many places, and we hope to go to many more. Hermitage Bay is a place worthy of a return trip. Arrival and Site Being met upon arrival and ushered through customs is a very nice time saving treat. From there, a well-appointed private vehicle smoothly covers the roughly 40 minute drive to the resort itself. Immediately upon entering the property, everything is meticulously placed and the grounds are immaculate. We were greeted by Shawna, who along with Solange (truly sunshine personified), Jaquan, and Alicia (possibly The sweetest) are an incredible administrative staff. (Side note: It is good luck if you happen to see a mongoose, or if you see Ava from HR getting coffee! 🤣) Your welcome beverage will be made for you by Antony (of the ubiquitous smile and silky tones), Mervin (the smooth), Lian, or Queen Latoya and they will take great care of you throughout your stay. Clinton will take equal care of your beverages on the beach, and Troy, Jesse, Shemar and Kyle are the backup to the rest of the band and keep the flow groovy. Heading to the villa, Martin, Shane, Mark and Kawisi the wise along with their fleet of exotic import cars will be your transportation around the resort if you are ever in need and must be mentioned because the location of our villa inspired me to be so lazy as to ask for their services daily and they are super cool. Kim made sure the villa was immaculate, and the luxury was maintained impeccably throughout our stay. When you are ready to dine, prepare yourself for excellence. This restaurant earned two Michelin stars in 2025, and there is no doubt as to why. Head Chef Desroy, along with Chefs Liam and Sugar made such amazing meals that I have a hard time coming up with words. To say perfect is an understatement. Exquisite might be close. Every bite was what I hoped it would be. Every wish was met or exceeded. I still dream of the food. Even though we have good food and many choices here in San Diego, we still have yet to find adequate comparison since our trip. We were happy to be able to stay seven nights, just so that we had opportunity to work through most of both the lunch and dinner menus. Superb. Sublime. The joy created in the kitchen is transported with the utmost love by the caring hands of Keva, Zoe, Jillian (watch for the creative displays of the garden’s incredible carrots at lunch time!), Bianca the dancing queen, Cadedrah the glowing mom-to-be, Ryan the man, Shebeki, Annette, Patricia the sharer of coffee, and Jamie. Fine dining can only truly be fine dining with fine service, and make no mistake, each meal was absolutely lovely. Day to day Breakfast is perfect, and the pastries are not to be overlooked. Be sure to find the daily cookies on the bar, try the daily afternoon sushi at least twice (don’t forget the Nobu Chef in the house!), cook with the Chef (Sugar is super cool!), and meet the Staff at the meet-and-greet if you can. Either on the beach or by the pool, the ambiance is magical and space was plentiful even when at 100% occupancy. The tranquility is beautifully punctuated by small waves lapping at the sand. Tropical luxury at its finest. The snorkeling at the reef just off the beach is amazing with a tremendous variety. My wife isn’t a strong swimmer, so we took out a glass bottomed kayak, and she was able to see quite a bit. Delmond “Wiz” at water sports will outfit you and teach you a cool handshake if you’re lucky. As a side note, I find it especially compelling that many of the staff from the GM down have been at the resort for many years. While many resorts talk about ‘feeling like family’ it is obvious that these professionals truly are a family. And they will have you feeling like family too, wanting to go back like we do! Cheers!
