Trust me, the pictures do not do this place justice. It’s gorgeous, safe, and conveniently located near everything. But you can forget about all of that once you step inside and are transported to a beautiful oasis of calm and tranquility. We wanted to stay an extra day in Antigua just so we could enjoy the property. And the morning breakfasts are superb.

Beautiful Property
This is an amazing property from a location and design point of view. The only drawback is that there is no parking, or any arrangement by the property for parking elsewhere. They just suggested a car park that was about 3 blocks away. If you are not travelling with a car it won't matter.

Quality design and furnishings, beautiful central court garden with fountains, a veritable oasis. Makes you feel at home. Great breakfast served around the courtyard in front of your room. Doesn't have a bar or restaurant, but who cares when you have so many options around you. Staff are great.
