Really nice resort 20 minutes from the airport. Our villa was right on the beach, beach is stunning and the water calm. The resort has beautifully maintained grounds and a restaurant and bar right next door. Laundry facility on site and also a small shop that sells a few bits like water, beer, wine, coffee etc you couldn’t do a full shop there but it was handy for bits. The epicurean was about a 10min drive and has everything you need and more.
Pool area was lovely always plenty of beds, most days we had the pool to ourselves.
Good value for money, great location if you want the beach and tranquil waters.
2 restaurants one either side Salt Plage was lovely friendly staff, nice cocktails and happy hour 4:30. Food was tasty, nice atmosphere and right on the beach. Starfish was the bar joined to the restaurant and served lovely food during the day, great place for lunch.
Anas on the beach was located at the other side, the food was nice but the service wasn’t great, staff weren’t really helpful or even friendly put us off a bit. First visit we waited a good 10-15 minutes just to get the menu, no one really came to check if we were ok or needed anything didn’t even get a smile. Tried a second time thinking maybe just having a bad day but got the same again.
Car hire is a good idea as most places are quite spread out and not really in walking distance, taxis charge per person rather than by the journey so if you want to visit other places definitely invest in hiring will save you loads in the long run. Driving is the same as driving in the UK and the potholes aren’t as bad as people say, especially if you’re from the UK! Pretty standard.

As my followers know, we're travelers and not just vacationers. This location is really not properly called a "resort" in our view because it has no restaurants, watersports or all the superfluous offerings of the all-inclusives, like the huge Sandals complex right next door. What it does offer, however, is simple comfort, cleanliness and a fantastic home base to explore this wonderful country. Upon arrival late Sunday afternoon we were met by friendly and accommodating staff, both front desk and security. Ushered to our studio, we found it bright, spacious (including kitchenette) and clean. It was housecleaned every day. The grounds are extremely well-tended and make for picture perfect aspects everywhere. There are beach chairs and tables on the small beach from which you can watch the magnificent sunsets in the evening. And that's the true beauty of this place: its site and situation. Dickenson and the near contiguous Runaway Bays are not just the longest beaches on the island, so conducive to walking, but they are situated well away from the frenetic St John's area but still close to several excellent restaurants (see my reviews of Bella Vita, Casa Roots, Ana's and Putter's Grill). Even better, it's the best point of departure to the rest of the island because you can largely avoid St John's traffic. Antigua is a wonderful destination for many other reasons and, for our money this resort for our stay was ideal.

We stayed at Antigua Village during our second week in Antigua in November 2021. After a week in English Harbour, we thought we would check out the north of the island & Antigua village offered good value for money, so we thought we would try it out.
I did email the property beforehand asking if possible that we could have a newly refurbished room (as I read they vary quite a bit in decor) & true to their word we had a fairly modern studio room with a kitchen.
For the money paid we were more than happy with our room (which was larger than the room we had in English Harbour which also cost more). It was bright & airy and the kitchen was great since we could store drinks in the fridge, make breakfast & lunch at 'home' and still head out for dinner in the evenings (Anas on the Beach & Salt Plage are both within easy walking distance).
The balcony was also nice to sit with a drink in the evenings overlooking the pool. Speaking of which, the pool area is very nice & the gardens are immaculate & we spent most of our down time around the pool as it was quiet & relaxing.
The staff at reception, security & all the grounds people were also very friendly & helpful!
As some others have mentioned the only slight potential downside, in case it bothers anyone, is that the Sandals hotel next door can be quite noisy in the evenings, but it tends to quiet down after 10pm so if you go out for dinner it's no biggie as it will have generally quietened down by the time you get back.
During the day it is very quiet however. It wasn't a problem for us & certainly isn't the Antigua Villages fault, but if this kind of thing bothers you or you are a family with young children who go to bed early, it is worth bearing in mind.
The only other slight issue is the curtains in our particular room were very thin or just not their at all in the case of the kitchen window, which meant daylight can wake you up around 6am. Being a bit old before my time I sleep with an eye mask anyway lol, so for me it wasn't an issue, but again something to be aware of.
All in all though we had a great stay & having a car for the duration was fantastic as we could easily pop to the local supermarket down the road, St Johns or to any of the lovely beaches around the island. We would certainly stay at Antigua Village again!

Dear Wunderlust, I am sorry to have missed your review. Please forgive my delayed response. We appreciate your feedback, and we are also happy that you had an enjoyable stay overall. We do hope that you return to our beautiful island of Antigua and to the Village. I will make sure you have black out curtains for that extra vacation sleep! The neighbours have been musically disruptive on occasion, but that has now significantly improved. We remain a place of relaxation and safety. We are an email away for your next trip. warmest regards from all of us here, Gina

We were delighted with our choice of the Antigua Village. The complex is well maintained with beautiful gardens and an excellent pool area which was very quiet. This is perhaps because it is right on the beach which has plenty of sun beds and umbrellas. There are two excellent restaurants and bars within five minutes or less walk (Ana’s and Salt Plage) and a couple of others not much farther away (Putters which is basic but fine and the really splendid Casa Roots for that special meal). It is 15 minutes from the airport and the beachfront location is superb. The beach is shared with a Sandals resort but the proximity proved not to be a problem from a noise point of view. Our apartment was spacious with a great expansive balcony overlooking the sea. Fittings were slightly dated but overall we loved the place and although some updating would be advisable it didn’t detract from our stay. These are privately owned units so that sort of thing will vary. All the important things were there including a Super King bed and powerful shower. Staff were all super helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend the Antigua Beach. It is excellent value for money and we had a great time!

There are absolutely no facilities at this resort you have to rely on neighbouring resorts. Changing beach towels was difficult as sometimes the laundry had no clean ones. Our accommodation was very dated and not particularly clean we had to request bedding be changed. We liked Antigua but would not recommend this resort.

Thank you for your review. We wish you had enjoyed your stay at the Village! We recognize the towel challenge as this can occur at peak times when towels are in high demand. Sometimes guests may request more than the standard amount per person and more frequently, so this creates a supply challenge even with increased towel inventory. We are sorry that you experienced this shortage. There are different units available for rent that may not be in our rental pool. As a condominium property all units are self-contained with a kitchen/ette. We do offer pre arrival shopping services for the convenience of our guests as we do not have a restaurant. Due to our location there are 4 restaurants within walking distance and 2 directly on the east and west border of the property. My email contact is gm@antiguavillage.com if you ever consider visiting Dickenson Bay again. We will do our best to find you accommodation at the Village to our best standard in our rental pool and a good rate.

Just returned from a week's stay at Antigua Village and we just loved it.
Condo 26S was the best located: 1st floor, overlooking the beach so the sound of the waves was constant sound track of the week. Breeze coming through the screened windows meant we never needed the A/C. It's nicely decorated with a large and very comfortable bed and some interesting artwork. The kitchen was equipped and we could have had another couple or kids on the pull-out sofa bed. Had loungers on our balcony, but could always get one under the brollies by the beach. I took advantage of the complementary yoga class in the garden and the welcome drinks by the pool. It was a good way to chat to other guests, without being annoying. The front desk couldn't have been more helpful with taxis, car hire and laundry queries.
Wish I'd taken binoculars to watch the seabirds, or the views in general.
All in all, a blissful week.
Worse thing: Sandals up the beach, but they do shut the noise down pretty early.

Antigua Village is a true gem! The atmosphere was wonderfully quiet, peaceful, and serene—perfect for much-needed downtime and rest. The nearby restaurants offered fantastic food, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond. The EZ Grab next door was convenient for anything you might have forgotten to pack. Overall, it was exactly the escape I needed. Highly recommended!

Wow! We had a fantastic trip at this lovely resort. I'm hesitant to even write this review as this is such a hidden gem!
We came in with pretty low expectations because we were on a timeshare exchange and had read other reviews about the units, but I wanted to write this to provide a different opinion. Yes, the units are older, but they are spacious, clean, and had everything we needed with updated furniture - comfortable bed as well. The grounds are beautiful and so well maintained.
The beach is spectacular - and convenient to all villas. The access to two adjacent restaurants, plus a few Caribbean food shacks past Siboney Beach Club to the left, was perfect for convenient drinks and meals. My husband had to work a few days of our trip, and the wifi was strong and reached to the beach so he could still sit and enjoy the view.
The staff is so helpful, and everyone we have met has been incredibly nice - down to the taxi drivers who service the area.
If you want a nice, safe, quiet, relaxing vacation, this is the place to be. We will certainly be back!

My wife and I have been coming to Antigua Village since 1987. This is possibly our 20th or 21st trip here. The location could not be better. It’s only a 10 minute drive into the city of Saint Johns. There are many restaurants within a short taxi drive from here. The beach is so walkable and so pleasurable that I get plenty of daily exercise. The management here at Antigua Village improves every year and as an example of that. On the second day here we put some bagels in the toaster and they burnt and the Mr. coffee, coffee maker. brewed coffee, but there was no light to indicate whether was on or off. We mentioned these two things to our maid Amber today, and within two hours there was a knock at the door, and there was a brand new toaster, and a brand new coffee maker ; this is the definition of good service The gardens have always been impeccably kept; the units are cleaned daily. Any complaints and any bad reviews you see come from people who rent a timeshare which are not managed by Antigua Village. Always book through the Antigua Village office and make certain you are getting a unit that is part of the Antigua Village Rental Program and not a time share.
