I have just come back from a weeks holiday at Jolly Beach, whilst the beach is great the hotel is not and needs a lot of work. The rooms are small and there is very little in them, no fridge, no tea/coffee making facilities, you do get a TV and a hairdryer, the bathroom is also tiny and only has... more

OK, after reading all the reviews we knew Jolly Beach would be a bit dated but a word of advice....don't book the standard room as it really would only suit kids on "schoolies week" . We were really disappointed with our room (my wife wanted to leave on seeing it) and so we upgraded to a reasonable room at a... more

The suites are actually the time share part of the Jolly Beach resort. The suites are very clean and spacious. However people with small children, the elderly and those with handicaps should be warned that the buildings are 3 stories with no elevators. Our room was on the top floor . We had a large dining/living area, small kitchen, a... more

Hello! Before we left, we were a little confused as to where we were actually staying - I believe there are two parts to Jolly Beach - the actual resort (which is a hotel) and then there is Jolly Beach Vacations (which are condos). We had booked ours through our time-share so we stayed at Jolly Beach Vacations. After we... more

Just returned from 2 weeks at Jolly Beach and would definitely recommend it with a few caveats. [Short version] Antigua - Superb World Class Destination. Jolly Beach - tremendous value and world class beach [but water is cloudy]. Rooms a little tired but functional. Good food, great entertainment, lots of booze. [Long Version] First of all Antigua. What a glorious... more

York England - 16th-30th May 2008 This was our 3rd visit to Jolly Beach and it was fantastic! My husband and I was married there 10 years ago and we returned last year to find it was still as great as ever. In fact last year we did a twin centre hotel, we had our first week at Jolly Beach... more

24/05/08-07/06/08 This our second time to Jolly Beach and it was every bit as good as last year, a great family holiday. After we were shown to our room we had a visit from room service, welcomed with a bottle of bubbly and some chocolates to thank us for coming back, a really nice touch. The food in the restaurants... more
