Independent in Antigua

"We had the most magical time here! It’s very secluded and personal so renting a car was a great idea for us to explore the island but come back to our retreat! Everyone is so kind and the property is absolutely stunning. The food was amazing and the bar was amazing! 100/10 recommend this place to any couple looking for a retreat. I would recommend bringing bug spray you are in the forest but they do spray for bugs often but keeping them completely gone is impossible so having bug spray was very helpful for us."

"Room was cleaned and staff was super helpful and pleasant pool beach very nice"

"Location was amazing. So close to wonderful calm swimming Waters. Wonderful for families. Pool was so clean and wonderful gardens were great. Plus we felt so safe. Many thanks to the locals for sharing their wonderful Island and Vibe with us"

"Location was good, rooms were clean and well equipped. The only problem was our flight was delayed 4 hours and they charged us $100 US to stay past our check out time which seemed a bit much."

"Staff not to welcoming. Food quality and selection not good. Drinks, Pool and beach best quality of the facility."

"Everything was great "

"Pros: Great location. Very easy check in. Snorkeling off the beach very good. Staff almost exclusively very friendly and helpful. Lots to do if you want. Nice beach. Nice pool setup. Grounds interesting and pleasant. Judith in the restaurant an absolute pleasure. Kwon for pool aerobics fantastic. Beds great. Lots of hot water for showers. AC in the beachfront rooms make it sub zero. Easy à la carte reservation process easy. Nightly entertainment. Never a time when food unavailable. Coffee shop really nice-clean. Coffee drinks nice. Courtesy showers a nice touch. Breakfast was very good, arguably the best meal of the three. Monkey bread! Cons are few. Beachfront room 113/115 are adjoining and the 113 is a smaller room and a shared deck which is not great. Grill was out of some things for the entire week we were there. While food taste is very subjective, and most things were good, baked goods were generally without flavor. Desserts hit and miss. More generally. Cab from the airport the easiest and regulated fare. Takes about 30 minutes Walk to Devils Bridge doable and worth while. Expect a little bit of elevation change and the walk itself not particularly scenic. 3 miles rt or so If you want shade anywhere (pool, beach) and it’s generally desirable, have to get there early. Claims are staked to be sure. That said, there are plenty of chairs, just not shaded. "

"We were so pleased with our week at the Verandah we booked it again for next year! Staff are excellent. "

"This was great place. Many mentions to so many of the staff. The buffet servers are a bit too cranky for me tho all else is really wonderful"
