| The resort is well maintained and is really beautiful. People are kind and is quiet. I was expecting more from the food. Even if there is a big choice food is only for american tastes. Japanese restaurant does not prepare japanese food and italian is not italian at all (I'm Italian). Moreover is possible to swim only in two little places as there are many aquascooters and fast boats passing close to the beach (but this is an island problem and Sandals can do really little)

| Everything about this resort is amazing. The beach was beautiful. Daily activities are provided to keep guests entertained. The restaurants serve excellent food. Our room was fabulous. We were upgraded to the Veranda Suite for some reason. Had a spectacular view of the ocean. These suites are located in the the center of the resort. These rooms are nicely kept and are up to date. The concierge service is excellent, as is housekeeping. Can't wait to return.

| The food was abolutely wonderful and the beach is very beautiful! We were a little dissappointed in our room, due to poor location away from all the main acitivies. Establishment is in great need of updating! Staff very friendly, but no food/drink services while your on the beach or at the pools. We had a great time, but feel as if Sandal's is a little over rated. Bring dressy clothes as the restraunts have dress requirements and all of them require reservations.

| My husband and I were a little disapointed with our stay at Sandals Antigua. There was mice feces under our pillows, we had no running water for about 12 hours, and when it was running it was brownish.

| We stayed at Sandals for 2 weeks. We had a wonderful time. The service was great and the staff was friendly. The resort offers daily and nightly activities, so you don't really need to leave the resort. They have a desk where you can sign up for trips such as snorkeling, sunset cruises, an ATV trip, and shopping downtown. We had such a nice relaxing time that we did not want to leave.

| Sandals is excellent as long as you are happy to relax and spend most of your time with your partner. The room and property are well kept but there is not much in the way of entertainment. SCUBA is included and well-managed, and the beach is magnificent, with watersports available.

| My wife and I honeymooned here just after Thanksgiving. The resort was beautiful and what we saw of the rest of Antigua was also very nice. Great service and an island full of kind people. A little on the expensive side, but the price includes EVERYTHING. The food and drinks were outstanding, and so was the service. There were plenty of activities if you're active like me, or you can just lie on the beautiful sandy beach and read a book if you're like my wife. SCUBA, snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, water skiing, etc. is all included. You could leave your wallet at home unless you want to use the spa or go on one of the excursion trips. Pretty much everything is geared toward couples, but we met couples from all over the world and of all ages (we are in our mid-twenties and were on the younger side of the spectrum, but met other young couples that were also honeymooning) . We would love to go back to Antigua and I would certainly recommend a Sandals resort.
