See if my Stanford Group certificate of deposit is buried on the beach.

It was amazing. Rent a jeep. Worth it unless you are wanting to hang at resort all day. 366 beaches.(antigua joke).

Where'd y'all stay? Looking at galley or hermitage bay.

No one has. It's void of human life

Hermitage and Jumby Bay are the top 2, have heard Galley Bay is similar to Sandals.

Folks stayed there at the Sandals resort. They enjoyed it.

A very long time ago. Lots of weed dealers on the beach.

Was there 1.5 years ago in November. Stayed 3 nights at Sandals for a friends wedding. It was ok but not a place I would want visit again. Went south to English Harbor and stayed another couple of days and really enjoyed the area. We were in a little hotel, nothing fance. Very few Americans unless you count the day the cruise ship visited the island.
I would rank the island as very safe. We got to the airport early for departure, checked our luggage and headed to the tourist area near the cruise boats to look around. I dropped my money clip in the cab with $500 cash, debit card, credit card, licence, etc. Realized it about 5 minutes after the cab left. I had no info on the cab. I talked with a policeman, he called over a cab guy and a lady whose husband works at the airport and overhead. They made a couple of calls and located the guy but he was not at the airport. Another cab brought us to the airport and the ab driver had shown up and had my money clip. I thought my odds of recovery were null...

Did a week a Galley Bay back in April. Ask away

How would you rate it? Would you go back? Is it truly all inclusive or is it all inclusive for cheap liquor/food with an upcharge for the good stuff? And did you stay in the Gauguin cottages?

this looks legit. Have you been or is this just a suggestion based on the website?

Carlisle Bay is fantastic. Check it out. I would go to St. Martin over Antigua though.

Curtain bluff small resort but awesome.

My wife and I liked English Harbor but I don't think we would return, not enough stuff to warrant another trip to the island and we really aren't beach people.

What is there to do on the island itself outside the confines of the resorts? I've heard that St. John's is nice to visit for local flare. Also renting a jeep to tour the island was suggested.

Went on my honeymoon two months ago and it was the tits. Stayed at galley bay resort
Do the wadadli cats circumnavigation trip. You go all the way around the island and they feed you and let you snorkel
Also I stayed in the Gauguin cottage at galley bay while I was there it was amazing
Yes it is truly all inclusive. Top shelf liquor and all food. They have an upscale restaurant on site that you can eat at that costs extra but we never did that. Free meals at the other two restaurants
