8 Best All-inclusive Resorts in Antigua

"An adults-only, 56-acre beachfront retreat set on sparkling white sand with glass-like turquoise water, tranquil lagoon, and a bird sanctuary; the resort features 98 beachy rooms and suites (some with private plunge pools), a freeform outdoor pool, a spa, and a lengthy program of land and water activities. Dining options include four restaurants, though one signature venue (Ismay’s Restaurant & Bar) requires an extra charge and reservations." - Meagan Drillinger Meagan Drillinger Meagan Drillinger left New York City for a life on the road.

"Galley Bay Resort & Spa Soaking tubs big enough for two and double walk-in showers provide a clue that this beachfront all-inclusive, located less than 20 minutes from the airport on a peninsula just to the southwest of St. John’s Harbour, encourages families to look elsewhere. And while only the Premium Beachfront Suites have those particular romance-inducing amenities, there are other features, such as hideaway tropical dining, that will convince honeymooners and other couples that they have stepped into their own Gauguin landscape. Hence, the most secluded rooms, each with its own plunge pool, are called the Gauguin Cottages. Even among Antigua ’s 365 beaches, Galley Bay’s is a visual standout that is longer and less crowded than most. The ocean here can get too rough for swimming, but the beach seldom fails to please for sunsets. Guests with limitless energy can choose from complimentary activities such as tennis, sailing, and stand-up paddleboarding. Or they can save their energy for honeymooning."

First time to Galley Bay and can understand why there are so many ‘returners’. Resort was amazing. We were in a wonderful Beachfront Suite. Food was brilliant, great choice and amazing quality (Met Executive Chef many times, lovely man), plus extensive drinks choice. Yoga brilliant, thanks to the lovely Mackenzie. Watersports team a credit to you, the lovely Shiloh was so welcoming. Special mention to the hard working Sonia in the Upcycle cafe. Fun garden tour with Curt. Alfred on the buggies was lovely. My husband was made up meeting Amby and what an entertainer Ebony T is! Your star staff member however was Alaska, so lovely and personable. We were lucky to witness the baby turtles hatch too. It’s one big family and we will certainly be returning ourselves!!!!

The setting is truly beautiful and I mostly enjoyed my stay. |The food was quite good and most of the staff were friendly. However there are a significant number of employees who were simply miserable. In particular are many staff at the teepee bar. Some are wonderful but some will ignore you. On our last day we asked to place an order and the waitress said she would come back to us. She then stood at the bar talking to the bartender. We finally got up and left to go to the restaurant. She watched us do this without comment. This was a rather common attitude among the staff at the teepee bar. The woman who poured the wine at the Seagrape restaurant was perpetually rude. We would absolutely return given the physical beauty and the comfortable accommodations. However the inconsistent service is not acceptable we will absolutely look elsewhere for our next Caribbean vacation.

Ok, if you have only one chance to go to an all inclusive, adult only tropical resort , THIS is it. It is exquisite, rustic, gorgeous and natural. The food is great and the staff is exceptional. Very upscale without being chi chi or without being a “scene”. IF you want a “scene”, this is not the place.i went with a friend and it was perfect but if you have a romantic partner it will be even more heavenly. I have been to slot of amazing g places in the world and this place is right up there.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Magical Experience at Galley Bay, Antigua! Our stay at Galley Bay Antigua was truly magical from start to finish, and our anniversary dinner was an evening we’ll treasure forever. Everything was absolutely perfect — from the setting to the service to the food, which was without a doubt the nicest meal we’ve ever had. It was cooked and presented by real professionals who clearly care about what they do. A huge thank you to Dasani, who looked after us so wonderfully on our special night. He’s such a genuine, kind person and an absolute credit to Galley Bay. The whole evening felt effortless and full of joy thanks to him. We’re also so grateful to Nadia for arranging the evening and making it so special, and to Anya, who has been our point of contact since earlier this year. She’s been so lovely and thoughtful every step of the way — a truly special person who made us feel like old friends rather than guests. There are so many others we want to mention — Dayton, Aliah, and many more — every single member of staff made us feel cared for and welcomed. The warmth, smiles, and attention to detail from everyone really set Galley Bay apart. We left feeling relaxed, spoiled, and incredibly grateful for such a wonderful experience. Galley Bay isn’t just a resort — it’s a place that touches your heart. We can’t wait to return! 💕🌴

We bought a lunch pass for a family of 4 for $55 each. The resort is lovely, amazing gardens and very friendly, helpful staff. It’s tranquil and we had a beachfront table in the Sea grape restaurant. Food was top quality and we enjoyed every course with drinks included. We all agreed we would happily stay here- Highly recommended

Hello everybody out there in review land! Galley Bay is amazing. Simply amazing! My wife and I are currently vacationing here. Unfortunately, this is our last full day. From the moment we entered, the staff has made us feel right at home. They are very intentive and friendly. Each restaurants serves delicious food. Each meal is as delicious as the last. So good! So much flavor! And creativity.. The presentation of the food is beautiful. I must say that I’m a big fan of chicken wings and theirs are top notch! I don’t think I’ve ever had better. We met and had some great conversations in passing with the executive chef. He is very knowledgeable and has worked all over the world. He knows exactly what he is doing and has crafted some truly amazing menus. They are extremely lucky to have him! Not much of a drinker, but the bar tenders make some delicious cocktails of which we have enjoyed very much so! Our room is very nice and spacious and not at all dingy! I don’t think that there’s a need for them to be up updated anytime soon. The design is very modern and well built! One of the best things about this place is tranquility. We have been lucky to have enjoyed a nice quiet vacation. The dominant sounds are the wage crash on the beach. I need to reiterate how amazing the staff is! Nighttime is very chill. Their live entertainment has been so great! We were lucky to have been able to catch The band three cylinders! Never heard of them before coming here. But they seem to be a pretty big deal throughout the Caribbean and have played all over the world! Did I mention how much we love the staff? We can’t recommend this place enough and hopefully we will return someday! If you are thinking of booking this place at no further and book it! Did I mention how amazing the staff is? Unfortunate we are heading back to a very snowy Brooklyn, New York, which we love and call home. Of course we’d rather stay here.

An absolutely exquisite ,upscale boutique resort in Antigua WI. The vibe is expensive rustic , tucked into a tropical island experience. If you want cool/hip or a place to show off your designer duds and purses, THIS place is NOT it. But , if you want a serene retreat experience this is the place. Adult only, all inclusive resort. I decided to do nothing but watch the water and feel the heat and sun, but if you want all the water sports you can find it, not to mention the spa.|I was gifted this trip with and by, a very generous friend, as it is very $$$, so if you are in a high income bracket , you can experience this. Older crowd and honeymooners. Go there before you die!!!!

My wife and I just recently stayed here for our honeymoon. We were debating on a couple different resorts and are so glad we landed on Galley Bay. From checking in to the resort, all the way to checking out, we were treated very well and they make sure to go above and beyond. I’d highly recommend this resort to anybody looking for a nice getaway with amazing food, views, and service.
