This hotel has potential, unfortunately their way of conducting business will be is there detriment. Their process for seating at all meals was cumbersome and the reservation process for the specialty restaurants was pointless. The reservation process required us to use an app that never worked. The front desk after hours was never available and this wasn't issue before we even left the U.S. 80% of our meals were warm or completely cold. Make this make sense. I will say that majority of the staff was pleasant, but not always helpful through no fault of their own. Do wish that the hotel would have showcased more of their local meals. I will say that the coffee shop was a very nice amenity and the beach was beautiful. Unfortunately there wasn't a vibe... music boring and staff was not engaging except for Mr. Awesome who made water aerobics fun. The night entertainment was average except for karaoke and reggae night.This was my second trip to Antigua and I would return even though transportation ate though our budget...lol.However I would not return to the Royalton Antigua.

We actually got married at this hotel (previously known as Royal Atiguan) 25 years ago. After a return visit 3 years ago we decided it was the right destination to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary. We stayed Diamond Club with Bay View Room and were not disappointed. Our butler Shanice was absolutely outstanding and ensured we had everything we needed. She had banners put on our door and arranged a special cake for us. All the staff were very helpful and friendly - special mentions to Lesa & Nelson from Grazie at breakfast, Paul who was stand-in butler while Shanice was on a day off and also to Casford who was the pool waiter . While we were there we had plenty of lovely food all served with a friendly smile. The grounds of the hotel are kept to a high standard with lots of lovely coloured flowers. There were a few tiles missing from the Diamond Club pool and sometimes the water levels were a bit low but it didn't stop my enjoyment of the holiday and the stunning views that you are treated to every day. There are far too many negative reviews about this hotel - I will definitely be returning. Thank you to everyone!! Read less

We are currently staying at the Royalton in Antigua as part of the diamond club. We have Shanice as our butler. When we booked it didn’t realise what we were getting reference the diamond club. However Shanice has been an absolute star booking all our dinner reservations making sure we are well stocked with wine,beer and soft drinks. She even went out and personally bought some shopping for Ting for us. And a bottle of Rose for our daughter. Shanice is worth her weight in gold. Thank you Shanice for making our stay so special Read less
