Hotel is average, diamond club is worth it as you get looked after so well especially Rodwin and Danielle the butlers we had. All staff are very friendly and welcoming. Loved our morning aqua fit class at the pool each morning- Mr Awesome is just awesome. Breakfast is the best meal of the day lots to choose from, nibbles bar and diamond club grill is also good for lunch but evening meals in the buffet is quite hit and miss. Coffee shop has amazing ice cream flavours. Pool bar is very annoying as most mornings they had no bottled water and always ran out of certain ingredients each day for the different cocktails. A menu for the pool bar would be helpful. Rooms are very nice and housekeeping do a good job a keeping it clean and tidy each day. Vibe team (entertainment) are very energetic and get you up on your feet dancing. Sun loungers are never a problem to get. Beach is so beautiful and water is very clear, swimming pools have an issue with the filter as water always has bits floating in it and a beige film around the outsides. Also pools need a maintenance check as lots of tiles in pool have came loose. Overall a good relaxing and fun holiday, just a shame on a few aspects which could be easily fixed. Read less

My stay at the Royalton Antigua exceeded expectations in every way. The resort itself is stunning with excellent food options and a staff that goes above and beyond to ensure comfort. A special mention goes to Shimmea, who truly made my experience feel like a home away from home. She combines professionalism with warmth, engaging conversations, and even creativity—joining me in trying new drink recipes. She consistently went out of her way to make me feel valued, cared for, and at ease, exceeding any standard of service I’ve experienced at other hotels. The excursions team also deserves recognition for their attentiveness and guidance. EJ (Emance) in particular stood out with his welcoming spirit, embodying the heart of Antigua—togetherness, pride, and hospitality. While I didn’t sail with him, his presence reflects the same passion Antigua is known for during its famous Sailing Week. Royalton Antigua offers not just luxury, but an atmosphere of genuine care. I left feeling refreshed, grateful, and eager to return. Read less
