John Hughes Vacations from $1,443

The escape was as peaceful and relaxing as advertised. The rooms were very private, and we loved the en-suite pool. Since the property is quite secluded, it’s ideal for couples looking to unwind rather than for those seeking nightlife or lots of activities. The staff were friendly, the rooms were clean, and they can help arrange tours and excursions for you. We rented a car and enjoyed exploring Antigua on our own as well. Bring bug repellent, especially for the evenings. The food was excellent. Portions are on the smaller side, but the staff are happy to bring a second serving. Loved the fruity drinks. Overall, a wonderful couples-only getaway exactly as described.

We loved the peaceful beach and sparkling clear water. The food, much of it grown on the property, was good and the restaurant staff did everything to ensure the guests were happy. The last time we visited Galley Bay was 14 years ago and it was even better than we remembered.

Everything was great including customer service everywhere but rooms don’t get clean daily. Food was delicious at all restaurants except at Rasta beach grill.

Staff was FANTASTIC!! Can’t say enough about how warm and friendly and hard working at least the staff I interacted with were . The resort is lovely if you aren’t looking for an extravagant amount of things to do and to just relax. They do however have excursions for additional fees. If you are looking to just lay on a beach, this is not the resort for you. The view is beautiful from a beachfront room however, you can’t go and walk on to it and lay nor go into the water. There is a bayside of the resort that offers a small area to be able to go in to. The main pool was a little small but we were lucky to be visiting on a slower week. We also did not know there was an Adults Only section. This I will keep in mind for future consideration! I would like to point out that Riaan the GM was absolutely HANDS ON & very interactive with everything & everyone! Very refreshing! Overall it was a lovely time so thank you!

Great Anniversary Trip! My husband and I have been to several all inclusive resorts and we really enjoyed this one and would recommend. A few things to know about the resort before you book. We were a little confused about the different room categories. Garden is exactly what you would expect. Ocean/Beach view is a room that is on the side of the property where there is not a beach but a rocky shore. The beach front rooms were the best as it was quiet but close to everything, was truly beach front. I did not see any rooms where stairs went from the second story balcony straight out the beach as pictured. We didn't care about that at all but want people to know if that's important to you. Frankly I would either save money and get a garden room, or go for the beach front. There are US outlets in the rooms so you do not need a converter or adapter even for your curling iron or flat iron. The food was good but there are not the restaurant choices a larger resort can offer. However, fewer restaurants were worth the intimate feel and a nice change of pace for us. They have a buffet that is the main restaurant, an Italian that was good and open most nights, and a seafood open one night we were there. Dress can be casual or a sundress if you prefer. We did two excursions through the resort. The shopping trip can be skipped but do not miss stingray city. Fantastic and very responsibly priced! This resort is very laid back and quiet. Exactly what we were looking for!
