"June, the owner, lives next door, so check-in is easy. "

"We were a little sceptical about Galleon Beach Resort due to limited reviews but we did not regret booking. Upon arrival Talia showed us down to Sea Breeze - cottage number 10. She left a welcome sheet providing her mobile number incase we needed it, numbers of taxis etc. The cottage was beautiful with a living area with two small couches, a kitchenette with microwave, toaster, coffee maker, fridge water cooler and 2 plate hob. We had two large bedrooms, the Master with ensuite, plus a second bathroom with shower. The highlight of the cottage was having the sea right on our doorstep, we loved sitting out on the patio watching the boats, listening to the birds and the waves. The snorkelling from here was also the best we've experienced. Over the three nights we stayed, we saw Sea Turtles, an Eagle Ray, Puffer fish, baby squid, and hundreds of fish. As we didn't have a car we called a taxi to take us around to English harbour (there is also a water taxi) which cost $15 each way and visited Nelsons Dockyard, had lunch and got some supplies from the Coventry garden supermarket. It was easy to get a return taxi back from the taxi rank at the Dockyards. We prebooked for the same driver to pick us up later that day and take us to Shirley heights for the Thursday night party (also $15). We booked the Loose Cannon beach bar for dinner for two nights, small menu but the Explosive prawns were exquisite. Highly recommend staying in these beachfront cottages!"

"This hotel is the best around. The setting and the building itself is absolutely stunning. The staff are super friendly and there is loads to do nearby. I highly recommend to anyone. "

"A cost effective hotel in the best part of Antigua for food and entertainment. Clean, good air conditioning and close to the action. "

"The only disappointments was there no beverages in the room and very limited access to the specialty restaurants. The view was great as was the weather. Room was nice. Great choice in pools if you’re willing to walk. Resort is somewhat remote. Most of staff were very friendly. "

"What an exquisite place!Sitting outside, beside the pool, watching the boats enter and exit the harbour, while we sipped on our coffee and tea was such a delight. The entire property is beautiful. Yorie thought of everything: chairs to sit on the beach, a cooler to pack food for any excursions, fully stocked kitchen, extra towels, and lots of little details to make our stay super.If we come back, we will definitely pick this place again."

"Great location, amazing views with quality accomodations. Right above the best snorkling beach in the island. Our favourite spot!"

"We had an incredible stay and can’t recommend this place enough! The host was extremely responsive and made everything so easy from start to finish. The villa was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described. One of the nicest touches was arriving to a stocked fridge, which helped us get settled in for the first couple of days without any stress. Truly above and beyond hospitality - five stars is an understatement!"

"This was a lovely beach cottage, perched above a beautiful beach. Easy path down to the beach, and everything you need for the beach: chairs, towels, snorkeling equipment, etc. we were wow’d to find milk, bread, butter, cheese, eggs, bacon, & coffee on arrival. Very comfortable king size bed, great pillows and sheets. Extremely nice open port over beach, which is were we spent the majority of our time when not on the beach. VERY steep driveway that was easy to navigate once we did a reconnaissance and understood how to best navigate. Nathan was very responsive and the grounds, maintenance and cleaning staff were very warm and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. "
