Just back from 11 night stay at Galley Bay which we chose having read the reviews on tripadvisor. We wanted something special as we were getting married and we could not have chosen better. We had the wedding at the resort and were the only wedding that took place while we were there. Jennie was the wedding coordinator and she... more

We have just returned from our 3rd visit to Galley Bay Resort. The first time we stayed was on 2002, then again in 2005 and this hotel never disappoints. I will start with the food, in charge of the kitchens is Andy the British Chef - the food that is produced demonstrates Andy's management and training capability - in all... more

We have just returned from a wonderful ten days at Galley Bay, and recommend it highly. We really appreciated Trip Advisor reviews before we went, so wanted to write a detailed review to help others decide whether this is the resort for them. We booked with Virgin Holidays, which was great. On arrival at Galley Bay we were welcomed, as... more

My wife and I went to Galley Bay for our honeymoon from June 14th- 21st and overall had a wonderful time! This resort is a BEAUTIFUL retreat away from the typical formulaic "beach resort" that you can find anywhere in Mexico, Florida, and even many other Carribean islands. Let me first say that we researched this trip beyond belief, as... more

This is our 3rd trip to the Caribbean-We booked our vacation with our Travel Agent, Mitch, from Trip Guy Travel, who has been exceptional at assisting us in choosing our vacation destinations. After much thought, we finally chose Galley Bay. We stayed at the resort from May 21-May 28, 2008. Arriving at the resort, we were greeted by the staff... more

Anybody reading recent reviews of Galley Bay must be getting really bored with repetitive remarks on the beautiful location, wonderful food and friendly staff. The problem is that they are true! We stayed at Galley Bay between the 7th-18th June, quite a good time to visit Antigua as it is considered the start of the Low Season and is therefore... more

This was our first trip to Galley Bay and we were trying to not get too excited in case it didn't live up to all good reviews we'd read. But after 13 restful days of eating, drinking, snorkelling, swimming, bird and mongoose watching, I'm happy to report it did indeed live up to the hype. In atmosphere it was very... more

This is the perfect Caribbean resort, comfortable immaculate rooms set on a secluded beach, with a 5* dining experience. The staff go that extra mile to make sure you are well looked after. You won't find loud music, water polo etc for daytime entertainment, just the sound of the sea and the birds. My boyfriend and I fell in love... more

Well what can I say that has not already been said. The resort does exactly what all the other reviews say it does. We tried various booking combinations, quotes from Virgin, Carribean Warehouse,the hotel itself, and eventually booked direct with XL, who provided the entire package for £6100, with the business class upgrade, which was well worth it.(why do so... more
