Waterfront vacation rentals in Antigua

We had a lovely stay at Galleon Beach! The location is secluded enough that you can really slow down and relax, while close enough to English Harbour if you feel inclined to go out for dinner or find a cozy dockside bar. Feel like staying in? The Loose Cannon restaurant is also steps from the front door and the cottage has a small kitchen as well. We were greeted with a complimentary bottle of rum punch - such a nice touch! The room was comfortable and clean. The reception staff (Talia and Jewel) were very helpful in offering restaurant and excursion recommendations as well. The unit is also a short walk from amazing hiking trails leading up to Shirley Heights and the Southernmost Point of Antigua and Barbuda, with the stunning Hercules Pillars right around the corner.

We loved staying with Tammie . Her place is very central and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay in English harbour . The pictures don’t do her place justice . This is a self contained unit with everything you need to cook but at the same time being amongst all of the towns popular restaurants . There’s a sitting area outside to watch the world go by. It’s connected to Tammies restaurant which serves great food . I can’t recommend here enough .

I had an amazing experience at this Airbnb! The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described in the listing. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive. The location was private, quiet and relaxing. The amenities were thoughtful, from the comfy bed to the well-equipped kitchen. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay!

It was beautiful the pictures didn't do justice to that beautiful beach. well equipped and surroundings out of magazines. it will definitely come back and tell others. thank you 😊

The views make this place simply amazing! We lived on the porch - it was our living room and dining room. After eating out for dinner for a couple of times at first, we chose to get street food or take away, and brought it back to the porch, because there is no restaurant that can beat the house views. Watching the cruise ships and cargo ships go in and out was spectacular. Lying in bed and opening your eyes in the morning to nothing but water out the window is indescribable. The house set up is great with 2 bedrooms & 2 baths - really private. Michelle left a variety of drinks in the fridge for our arrival, a really nice and appreciated gesture after a day of travel. We walked from the house to Fort Barrington (there is an easy/quick cut through on the beach) and from there to the beach at Deep Bay - beautiful. We had a rental car to explore the island - we went with the recommended airport pickup by Rasheed's car rental, with the car waiting for us at the house. So sad to leave!

Rochelle and her husband, were very helpful and responsive. Great location, very private. Just make sure that you have at least SUV vehicle because the road is very rough. Overall we had a great stay.

We stayed in Unit C, the studio. It opened up to the whole pool area. It was perfect for a couple. Ralph was very helpful, and always available to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We will definitely return to see Ralph’s new units that are in the final stages of construction. They are going to be amazing. Overall a great place to enjoy a beautiful island.

Everything was absolutely perfect from the location to the modern decor and amenities. My girls and I couldn’t stop raving about how comfortable the beds and couch were; it made lounging a dream. Simone’s Airbnb had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Honestly, if you didn’t want to leave the Jolly Harbour community, you wouldn’t have to. There’s a supermarket, beach, pool, and several restaurants all within the area. The golf cart was a huge plus and made getting around so much easier. Simone was a fantastic host, and we’re already looking forward to coming back!

We (a couple) stayed at the Hummingbird Villa April 2025 and had a great stay. The villa was very accurately described by the photos and was modern and clean. The two decks had a beautiful view of the sunset - watching the sunset each night was our favorite part of the trip! Debbie was very communicative. We had a super minor maintenance issue, which Debbie resolved quickly and easily. The condo is about 10-15mins outside of St. Johns, which makes for a peaceful surrounding, but you will definitely need to rent a car to stay here. Our favorite beach was Deep Bay beach, which was a 5 minute drive further down the road on which the condo complex is located. Definitely worth checking out and make sure you get a fresh grilled lobster from Just Grillin'!

Absolutely perfect stay! My wife, two kids, and I had an amazing time at Elena’s villa. The place was spotless, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Elena went above and beyond—even having basic groceries waiting for us when we arrived, which was such a thoughtful touch after a long trip. Anytime we needed anything, she was quick to respond and incredibly helpful. The location is unbeatable—just a few steps from a beautiful, quiet beach. The AC in every room was a huge bonus, especially after hot days at the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend and would love to return

We had an amazing stay at Kamisiky House! It’s even more beautiful than the photos depict. Gary and Val have created a truly special place. Everything about this home is comfortable and well designed. We loved being close to nature — watching sweet, little birds fly around the property and spotting eagle rays at the private jetty were particularly special. The bedrooms are super comfortable, and we loved listening to all the tropical night sounds that lull you to sleep. The pool and view are absolutely fantastic. And the kitchen has everything you need to cook very comfortably at home (we also really enjoyed takeout from nearby Reggae Village). Valincy, the house manager, is always available by phone and right on time for check-in and check-out (Thank you, Valincy!) The only problem in the end was how sad we were to leave. We will definitely return!

We had a great stay at the villa. Spacious and comfortable rooms and great views of the sparkling bay. We loved watching sunrise and having a first swim before breakfast. The private access to the sea is amazing and comes with sunbeds for relaxing under the sun. Hung organized for us the transfer from/to airport, which was perfect. He also gave us information about car rentals. Long bay is 5 minute walk from the villa. The other beaches are at least 30 minutes drive. Our favourite one was Half Moon Bay. At night we could hear loud music from nearby resorts, but it usually ended at about 10 PM, so it wasn't a problem for us. Marilyn prepared for us delicious meals.

This is a beautiful villa located in a very quiet, newer development. The home is laid out well with large living areas, spacious bedrooms and baths. The upper and lower outside living area are particularly inviting with a large sectional on the upper area and a dining table on the lower area by the pool. Both with ocean views. The villa is fully air conditioned , which is a huge plus during the afternoons over the summer months. We did not end up using during our stay in April. The kitchen was fully equipped with all appliances, (classic coffee maker, commercial grade blender, etc.) The refrigerator made ample amounts of ice each day. The point I am making is, all appliances are modern and work well. The zero edge pool is full sized for 6 or 8 people, not some tiny thing. It overlooks a cove leading out into the Atlantic. All pool furniture is top of the line, fresh, clean and feeling new. The house manager was a special treat, genuinely interested in guest experience.

Best vacation ever A slice of paradise Our stay at this beautiful villa in Jolly Harbour was amazing The villa was spotless modern and fully equipped with all the tech bells and whistles thanks to the incredible care from Leslie and Keith Everything was clean accessible and thoughtfully arranged The location was unbeatable The beach was stunning just steps away and the dock was perfect for renting a boat to explore the island We celebrated our son's 10th birthday here and it was a memory we will cherish forever The secure gated community gave us peace of mind and we loved the amenities There is a gym across the street and a 9 hole golf course nearby I even enjoyed a round of golf with my son which was a highlight Ita the property manager was excellent always available and quick to respond to all our questions Her support made everything seamless

May 5-15. 2025:Brando Caribe's Villa is the best villa that I have stayed in at Jolly Harbour. I loved the clean, fully equipped modern minimalist decor, and most of all both marina & beach views from both patio & bedroom balcony felt like an extra treat to relax on especially at sunrise & sunset. Beach just a 2min walk from the Villa. Staying at Brando Caribe's Villa added to my experience of being in the most perfect setting as I returned home to Antigua to celebrate a special birthday. Thank you, I would definitely book to stay in this Villa again & highly recommended it.

We had an amazing time at Sara's place. She gave great recommendations and always super responsive. My favorite part was the back patio that looks out into the ocean. Also the breeze and sound from the water is amazing at night. I will definitely be going to this place again!

Vanessa was the consummate hostess— always responsive, was there waiting for us upon arrival, made sure to fill the fridge with a few of our favorite breakfast items, and helped me book a much needed massage. Vanessa made our stay easy and enjoyable. Not to mention Vanessa’s place, Villa FantaSea, is lovely. We ended up staying in the ground unit for a couple nights and then moved to upper floor (unfortunately neither unit was available for the entirety of our stay). The entire place is recently renovated, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, great outdoor space, clean and well air conditioned. You can’t beat the location. Vannessa’s unit is just steps away from the beach and beach restaurants. And Antigua Village, where Villa FantaSea is located, is safe and secure— and there is a nice pool you can access when you want an alternative to the beach. My family and I had a very lovely stay thanks to Vanessa and her villa. We visit Antigua annually and plan to rent from Vanessa again next yea

Location, location, location! The deck of this condo is directly over the water, overlooking a beautiful secluded beach. Walking distance to a cool old fort and another lovely beach. The pool area is very nice, as well. We had a blast in this comfortable (though not fancy) home.

12 Marina Bay is a lovely apartment with fantastic views! The location is great with two beaches and restaurants/bars within walking distance. There are free loungers for the nearest beach. We spent most evenings on the balcony watching the incredible, ever-changing views over the Caribbean Sea and small inlet we were living above. The apartment had everything we needed and Snezana was nearby to help with anything else we required, including a lift to the nearby, well-stocked supermarket. I would not hesitate to recommend this for a vacation.

Sarah was very responsive and very helpful, throughout. The location is perfect, the Villa is very nice and spacious, with a spacious balcony overlooking the pond to one side and the beach to another side. The beautiful Dickenson Bay Beach is only one minute’s walking distance. The kitchen has everything required for the self-catering needs, bathrooms and bedrooms are very satisfactory. The whole place is very welcoming.

We had an amazing time!! The views were unmatched!! We will definitely return!

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful villa just a couple of minutes from the beach and within a 15 minute walk of several great marina side restaurants. The local beach is fantastic, watching the sunset in the evening with a cocktail from Sandra's beach bar was magical and the location of the villa is perfect. We managed to explore much of the island and were left in no doubt that we were staying in the perfect location in terms of the proximity of many of the best beaches on the island. Chelsey and Jenny were very helpful and the accommodation was perfect, we wouldn't have changed a thing. The large deck in particular was fantastic, a lovely place to start and end the day. Hopefully one day we will be lucky enough to return.

We enjoyed staying at Marjorie's place. We were welcomed with the sweetest papayas and bottles of water. Thank You Marjorie!!! The view from the patio downstairs was serene. The home was clean and had everything you would need for your convenience. If needed, there is a washer and dryer available. We enjoyed dinner at Al Porto, the recommended restaurant. The nearby Epicurean supermarket has everything you needed. We walked/jogged and visited the beach. When it rained we stayed in to watch TV. We had a hiccup with the TV and also an unexpected visit from Kadean, who came by to collect a box which was connected to the T.V. This was a bit uncomfortable but quickly resolved. Craig, our co-host, later came out to help us with the T.V and he was then able to confirm, Kadean's visit. Kadean came by mid-week to change linen and re-fresh. This was an added touch. Everything is as advertised. We absolutely recommend Marjorie's place and would stay here again. Book it!!!!

Maria and Paul were so accommodating and welcoming. The apartment was beautiful and well kitted out with everything you could possibly need. The pool is lovely and private with a great view of the harbour. Paul and Maria are very helpful and have such a great knowledge of the area providing incredible recommendations of activities and restaurants. If I was to come Antigua again I wouldn’t stay anywhere else but here!!!
