Antigua, Caribbean

4 stars

This adults-only resort is in an idyllic spot, up on the secluded Northeast coast, featuring a brand new pool on Rasta Beach with amazing views of the ocean, a revitalised lobby and bigger gift shop. Everyone gets a well-appointed, lovely suite with its own oversized, furnished verandah. The rooms are all in single-storey, open-planned suites scattered throughout the beautifully landscaped, 30-acre resort which leads down to two sandy beaches. Natural materials have been used in the suites' classic Caribbean design, with gabled roofs and timber-clad frames. Come together and learn Hobie Cat sailing, enjoy beach volleyball, explore the nature trails of the national park or admire the limestone formations of Devil's Bridge.

“8.5 out of 10 - The Verandah Antigua”

Sep 25, 2026Notacomplainer123

8.5 out of 10. Would recommend. Accommodation very nice, pools and restaurants were very good. Beach "Pink" party on Friday night was fantastic. Not much evening entertainment, beaches are small and ocean water has lots of see grass, not great if you are a beach person. Trolly service was a must to get around on the resort as there are lots of hills to tackle while walking. Overall a very nice tropical resort.

“Wonderful Experience”

I personally want to Jensen over at the Water Sports for the amazing experience. Very accommodating and funny. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Will definitely be back.

“Disappointed”

Sep 21, 2026Lindy B

Unless you have your own transport it is Augusta fe away from anything. Hotel in September was very quiet, disappointing , I wasn’t advised restaurants would be closed. Restricted dining and lack of selection. Rooms were ok but in need of some tlc Pools were great as very quiet , staff were ok some exceptional others miserable particularly staff who arranged trips ! I felt I was being a nuisance. Morning cruise was cancelled but no one advised if this communication poor! May have been usual staff were having a break !!! Smell of weed around the main pool particularly when a certain entertainment member was around !!! Slightly disappointed , would look elsewhere in future .
