We arrived to a very nice upgraded room at Honeymoon Cove where we were celebrating our recent engagement. The staff were very attentive from day 1, with a drink on arrival, bottle of bubbly and nice card in our room. The resort was not overrun with people and was nicely spread out with 4 beach areas to choose from. We... More

Just returned last week from a seven day stay. We have stayed at Halcyon Cove four years and loved it but decided to try the other Rex resort. I am male mid thirties and we were by far the youngest couple there at that time, which didnt bother us one way or the other. We got engaged while we were... More

We have just returned after two wonderful weeks, our fifth visit. Many thanks to all, especially Agathe and also Brenda - delighted to see her again keeping our room spotless as always. The 'fireman' was excellent entertainment, along with his young dancers and young drummers. The manager Hyacinth was most welcoming, as was her assistant manager - an extremely capable... More

As everyone else has said, this is a laid back experience with no hustle or bustle. It just needs a bit of sprucing up to raise the standard slightly. During our stay there were less than 20 guests but everything was available to us, although we would query whether the food options were as full as they would be when... More

If you're looking for exciting nightlife and days filled with action, forget it! If, on the other hand, you want to be totally laidback in beautiful surroundings among fantastic and friendly people, then this is for you. A major plus is that there are no TVs so you don’t run the risk of being kept awake by neighbours. Actually it’s... More

I stayed at Hawksbill in December 2011. This is no 5-star resort, but the location, the staff, the beaches, and food were awesome! The first night we stayed in the cheapest room which had no AC. Miserable! We were up almost the whole night and the tree frogs were obnoxious. We asked to upgrade to the club room, which was... More

We have had 2 holidays at the Hawksbill now and enjoyed both of them. We love the hotel, the setting and the staff. The food and wine are good. The Garden rooms are variable and need some maintenance. The hotel is still godd value and we hope that it resolves its rent problems. Gill, Norwich

I have just returned from the sunny island of Antigua and I have to say it ranks amongst the one of th best holidays I have ever had. I have travelled all over the world and stayed in many hotels, however the seem to pale into insignifance after my stay at the Hawksbill. The Hawksbill is a charming hotel set... More

The hotel was not what we expected for a 3 and half star hotel when the Verandah is half star more & considerably better. The hotel is in need of major renovation and this is relected in the qality of the rooms and facilities. The hotels lease has elapsed and this could be the reason for the lack of funding.... More

It was good for a 3 star resort, but I only stayed for one night as a stop-over. It was not cheap, probably best to book as a part of a package. It is great for access to the only naturist beach in the country (with a few goats too). Very quiet and peaceful on the beach.
