Just returned from another wonderful trip to antigua staying at the JBV, The apartment, Was absolutely fantastic we stayed in a 2 bed jacuzzi suite no 304 which had lovely views of the harbour and partial sea views, they are very well equipped and have everything you would need except an oven but as i had no intention of cooking... more

Let me start out by saying that I am an optimist and always see the good side of things. I did have a good vacation in Antigua, but it was in no part due to Jolly Beach. I read all of the reviews, like other people, so I knew I was not going to a 5-star hotel. I expected average... more

We - a couple and a 14 month old baby - stayed for 11 nights at the Suites at Jolly Beach Resort - just back yesterday Dec 3, 2009. Found it to be lovely. Suites are a timeshare block of apartments on grounds of JBR hotel. The hotel rooms looked very small so Suites definitely better for kids. We took... more

Before going to Jolly Beach Hotel I had a good look through the trip advisor site and got a bit worried about what I had booked. I read reports like "its a tired hotel and is in need of a face lift" etc. Jolly Beach hotel is a 3 star hotel. Thats it in a nut shell. It is a... more

Like many have said before us we read the reviews and worried about what to expect.Yes the Hotel is tired and the food basic and edible but remember its a 3 star and its location on the best beach on the island and right next to a lovely harbour gives in our opinion very good value for money.We met people... more

Though I must admit at first sight I was disappointed with this hotel, my stay ended up being quite nice. We did have some problems with our room. It was a bit strange looking with everything being made out of concrete, but we had a nice lanai with chairs and even a bed. The problem was that didn't have any... more

I had read some bad reviews before we left and was nervous on arrival at Jolly Beach. I was disappointed in the standard room initially, it really is 3 star basic - nothing more so be prepared. However, once we got settled and saw the beautiful beach we were in heaven. The beach is literally stunning and the water beautiful... more

We stayed at Jolly Beach for five nights from 6th - 11th November, we were lucky enough to be upgraded to the junior suite, which was not too bad, we were in room 3058 on a corner with some hugh balcony areas overlooking the main bar. It was a bit noisy at night if you wanted to settle down early... more

The accomodation left a lot to be desired. After having moved rooms 3 times, we finally got a room that was adequate, then we were charged for an 'upgrade' so beware!! Lots of work renovations going on at the time which was very annoying. We feel that we should have been told about this before we went. The complex was... more
