We stayed here as prize winners. Having only ever stayed in five star plus we were nervous having read reviews. I would be classed as a fussy customer! Egg white omlettes, dressing on the side etc. however I have to say this.. Service - Nola and several members of hospitality team have been outstanding - genuine care and looking after... More

I urge anyone looking to get away from it all and relax to visit Galley Bay Resort in Antigua. Me and my husband just came back and can't wait to return. Galley Bay is beautiful, the food is great, and the people are amazing. I really can't say enough about this place. Oh and if you need a taxi to... More

I don't really know what to say after so many good things have been written about Galley Bay. I have just returned from there last week and can honestly say we had an absolutely fantastic time. From the moment we arrived till the moment we left we were treated so well. The staff at Galley Bay are second to none,... More

Perfect piece of paradise. We stayed for honeymoon and booked a beachfront room. Fantastic room right on the beach, so you could cool down in an instant in the blue Caribbean Sea, or just pop into the air conditioned pool at your ease. We felt this location was ideal for honeymoon, we felt very private and were very much allowed... More

I was here back in 2008 and five years later I can say that the service is still great. From our experience when checking in, to the friendly porter who carried us to our room, we would give the service 5/5. The food was good at the 3 restaurants we dined at. The restaurant staff really enjoy their jobs and... More

My partner took me away to Antigua to celebrate a rather large birthday recently. We traveled around all over the place, but Galley Bay was definitely the best beach we came across. The water was clear, and the surroundings were out of this world. There were small concessions along the beach if you wanted to buy trinkets /gifts to take... More

Wow, what an incredible place to stay! I have to say that overall, this was one of the best vacations we've ever been on. If you want a place that is all inclusive but small enough to be a boutique hotel, you've found it! Beach: Stunning. The sand is white and powdery. We didn't have any rough surf days at... More

Our second visit here- this time we brought some friends. The place is as beautiful as ever and they made several really nice improvements since our last visit. They added a great beach snack shack where you can grab a burger or a cuban or grilled fish while in your bathing trunks from noon till 4 which avoids the formality... More
