Hi-we were lucky enough to stay
at this hotel last year. It was amazing - as was Antigua itself. The people were very welcoming and the food, beaches and weather were all superb.
Essential things to do on the island - visit Falmouth and English Harbour, Shirley Heights (what a view). Cannot wait to get back!
I found this tour operator "Exotic Travel Agency". They have a fantastic tour that includes three different countries in which to explore beaches, the Maya's history and culture.

The colonial city of Antigua, a designated world heritage site, has beautiful baroque buildings, cobblestone streets, an excellent park at its heart, and is framed by several volcanoes. It also has many restaurants suitable for a romantic dinner.
