I always stay in this property when I visit Antigua, because it is the best place. Perfect location, nice house, kind and helpful host.

I guess all my previous positive reviews, and the fact that I keep coming back to stay here says it all.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Mrs Paul meet us with the keys, gave us a tour showed us how everything worked. The place was very clean and quiet and secure. I would recommend it for anyone who wants to see Antigua away from a hotel experience.

I just love this cottage. I have stayed here a few times by myself but on this occasion I had my friend and her two small children aged 4 and 5. It was perfect for kids, they had plenty of room to run around outside without any worries as the cottage is very secure with fencing all around. From the accommodation itself, to the area where it is located, checking in and out, I've never had any problems. It is a short walk to 1st Choice Supermarket and about a 20 minute walk to the nearest beach at Dickenson Bay but only 5 minutes if you have a car. I have always found the owners to be very accommodating and always on hand to offer help or advice if needed.
I really can't recommend this place enough, it's just perfect and I hope to stay there again later this year :)

CLEGGCaribbean sun and smiles! We stayed here for 2 weeks and wished we could have stayed longer. Very clean, well put together, comfortable house. Lovely family next door to help out with anything you need. Car a must if you don't want to walk long distances but only a short drive to everything you need - supermarkets, stunning beaches and nightlife. Wireless internet access, cable tv and a bbq if you want to relax in on the porch. Great restaurants and bars nearby if you don't. We highly recommend this property and would go back in a second.

ben in nyc new york city, usa. Review Submitted: January 09, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007My father, brother and myself stayed at this little home in antigua over the recent holidays. The house was just built and next to it is another small home where the owners live, a wonderful antiguan couple. Being a new house there were a couple loose ends to sort out (a leaky faucet and such) and the two owners immediately had the contractor and plumber come to replace the faucet. The house is a five minute drive to the beach, five minute drive to town and a five minute drive to a large supermarket. There is also a smaller supermarket a five minute walk away. The shower had excellent water pressure hot water and the kitchen is nice and full of pots and pans, plate and bowls. The television has heaps of channels. This home also has a great porch for sitting in the morning, the internet is wireless and you can get it from the porch although a wi-fi extender will be installed soon and should allow you access from inside the house in the near future. This is a great home for a small family, or two couples. There is two queen size beds in two rooms, a small living room with couch and an open kitchen in the living room. There is a table on the porch with four chairs., great for dinner outside, the porch is covered so if it rains all is cool. Restaurants are a short drive away in all directions, but we did heaps of cooking. We didn't have a car and walked all over the place! This is one of the best deals on the island!
