Feels like home, with a better view

Reviewed By coachkarger

I’ve stayed here on and off for a couple of months. It’s the perfect escape between work. The view is amazing. I sit out to breakfast and just stare at the same view every day overlooking English harbour and it never gets old. The pool is great. The rooms are comfy and the owner super helpful. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else.

Breezy Ellen Bay Inn

Reviewed By CHINEE1961

Not a top facility but if you are looking for quiet and peace with lots of breeze, then Ellen Bay Inn is top for you. My family and I enjoyed it. It location is so ideal, it offers easy get away around the Island and the beaches. Not far form the Capital city. It is clean and affordable but in terms of food, you have to obtain outside outside. It is good for relaxation especially if you like a windy environment which offers you fantastic views around.

The staff was wonderful to us very welcoming and friendly. The pool facilities are nice and the grounds are beautiful. The beach is a short walk away. Our room was clean and spacious. The con was having some construction works on the territory of the hotel which made it a bit noisy at times. Overall great value for money.

Eko Cozy Guest House

Great Value - Excellent Service

Reviewed By Stevecorbin_UK

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Great budget facility in a good location for access to St Johns, made all the better by the excellent service of the owner Prince who went 'above and beyond' to assist us! The place was spotlessly clean, well run with good Covid-19 protocols and protections in place. There are some shared facilities that were limited due to Covid restrictions, but these did not detract from a great experience!.

Orrie's Beach Bar And Hotel

Wonderful

Reviewed By marianp87

There are 6 rooms overlooking Turners beach , one of the best in Antigua! The top three rooms (4,5,6) have vaulted ceilings. All rooms are very large (about 40M2 including bathroom) plus all rooms have 6 x 1.5M balcony overlooking the sea. Our room, 6, had a very large four poster bed, local handmade bed cover. three sets of tables and chairs including one set on the balcony. All rooms have AC, we had a fridge, kettle and a safe. Staff could not have been nicer. The bar is very friendly with rum punch a speciality. breakfast fabulous ( they will cook you what you want, there is lots of fresh fruit as well as granola & yoghurt. evening meals really good but for all meals best to ask in advance if you want anything in particular and they will get it. we stayed 19 nights. Ensuite shower room was spacious but a little tired.

Clean and comfortable - Great Views!

Stayed here for one night before me and my husband checked into our all-inclusive hotel. It was very clean and comfortable. We met the manager Nick and his daughter Nia. Super nice people. You can see that Nick takes pride in his hotel. Great views of St. John’s - you can see the cruise ships in the harbor. As long as you are not expecting the Ritz, this is a nice place to stay for a few nights.

Reservation?

Reviewed By RoccoKaplan

I booked this hotel on hotels.com. They never received the reservation. Hotels.com claimed they sent it. They wouldn't help. I had to scrounge around for a room far from the center of town. The desk clerk, June, helped me for over an hour. She even drove us to a room she found about five miles away. She's a gem. Hotels.com was totally useless.

Stayed in one of the Gunpowder House suites for a few nights at the tail-end of our trip. Beautiful, beautiful spot in the English Harbour! Close enough to enough restaurants, bars, and beaches that you can walk; secluded location makes it feel special and not crowded at all. Couldn't have been happier!!

Disappointing

Reviewed By Alison N

Our room was adequate at best. We booked through Airbnb. We were not given any introductory info (the fact that there was a restaurant attached for breakfast, or a local map or directions. Our room only had windows that looked out to the hall ways. One set of towels, no water pressure, no hot water at all. But, the location was fantastic and perfect for the two nights we were there.

Great views and lovely place to stay

Reviewed By Philgmo

It is very difficult to find but once there the views over English Harbour are amazing and only 10 mins by car which is probably a neccessity. The rooms are very spacious and the four poster bed is lovely and comfortable. We couldn't get wifi in the room which was disappointing but it was available in the lounge area and on the balcony. The host Alberta is very friendly and accomodating and she gave us plenty of tips on places to eat etc and even booked a couple of restaurants for us. Her breakfasts were also very tasty. The charge for the room had to be paid in cash which is very unusual, but overall we had a great stay and would definitely recommend.
