I had both pluses and minuses at Dickenson Bay Cottages. Stayed here for over a week for business/vacation and locked in a cheap rate by my company, especially for Antigua in winter. I have been to Antigua over ten times now and stayed in a variety of hotels including Halcyon Cove, Carlisle Bay, Blue Waters, Antigua Village, etc. Carlisle Bay... More

Pros: • A really polite, helpful and responsive staff (thanks Karimah, Chris, Forbes and Thor!). • Clean, quaint and quiet, away from the touristy crowds down the hill. • Beautifully landscaped grounds. • Great access to the beach (5-10 minute downhill walk). • Guest very mindful and respectful of the privacy of others. • Kitchenette available for preparing meals, great...

I stayed here two nights on a business trip. Cottages are sizeable (mine was a duplex) and well maintained, good-size swimming pool and ample car parking space. A daily charge is made for wi-fi (why?) but not excessive. Watch out for the very tame bananquits which can get into your room given half a chance. Not cheap, but I was... More

Just returned from a two week stay at DBC and what a fab place to stay if you like peace and quiet using a venue as a base to explore the island. The cottages were very clean, well equipped and had both air conditioning and ceiling fans. It is not mentioned on their website but beach / pool towels are... More

Cottage was fab and had everything we needed, very spacious and well equipped. My husband was on crutches and being a small place we could totally relax and enjoy the... More

I stayed at the Dickenson Bay Cottages for one night over the xmas break. I actually have family in Antigua hence why it was only one night. As many times as visiting Antigua, I never really ventured out into the hotel scene and was used to seeing the usual Sandals hotel around the island, however, this place is very cozy... More

Just got back from Antigua and planning to go back again. ( a week is not enough) This location was excellent for getting around the island. I would recommend renting a car to get the full Antiguan experience. Dickenson Bay Beach is a 4 minute stroll down the hill, and there are several restaurants, and a small store. The beach... More

This review is way over due. We stayed at Dickenson Bay Cottages in April while on route to Montserrat. The owner was very accomodating and the cottage we stayed in was clean, spacious and comfortable. I would highly recommend this property. More
