Our group, 2 couples with their children (4-7 years old), shared a beautiful penthouse villa for a week this February. Property grounds were perfectly maintained with many pools, beachfront loungers and secluded spaces to enjoy. There is room for friends, couples, solo, and family travelers without feeling too large to navigate. The all-inclusive package was well worth the investment; each bar and restaurant delivered fantastic meals and great selection of drinks, including non alcoholic options. Our favorite aspect was the staff. Each team member was a pleasure to connect with, no matter their role. Many thanks to these amazing hosts, especially Nicole for managing us! Thank you for sharing Antigua!

Just returned from a fabulous holiday at Blue Waters. From our arrival to our departure we were well looked after. All the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was laid back and relaxed when we were there. The food was great. Breakfast you could help yourself or the team would prepare what you wanted. The omelettes were lovely. Lunch is either at the Reef or Palm restaurant with a great choice. In the evening you can always eat at The Palm, although you do need to book a time. There are two other restaurants available - The Reef which served Asian inspired food and The Cove which is more fine dining. You need to book in advance for both. Make sure you try all three as they are all great. They are all available through the All Inclusive option which was great. We loved having a drink at the bars and thank the teams at both Pelican and Veronica’s for looking after us so well with cocktails and other drinks. Our room was as described with a view of the sea. Well equipped with storage and a comfortable bed. Our room was serviced daily and kept spotlessly clean. We took part in some of the activities including the garden talk, early morning walk, mixology and rum tasting. We also used the gym which was well equipped. We could always find a lounger by the beach or pool. We loved swimming in the sea and the pools. The only disappointment was the cancellation of our snorkel trip as the boat was out of action. We arrived home relaxed and feeling that we had had a real break. Thank you to everyone in the Blue Waters team. Would we return - we most certainly would.

Have just returned from 3 weeks at Blue Waters Resort. Cannot speak too highly of the hotel. Beautiful landscaped gardens, stunning views, 3 restaurants with delicious food but above all the staff were friendly, efficient and attentive. A particular mention for Nicole who looked after us exceptionally during our stay

With the wretched weather in England, we were delighted to thoroughly enjoy 10 days in the sun at 28°. From our welcome to our departure, Kevin and his whole team provided faultless service. We used a friendly local taxi service (Lewis from the hotel squad) to get us to Cedar Valley golf course for 3 rounds of well-priced golf. He also took us to St. John's on a cruise boat-free day! Go to Hemingway's for lunch!!! All the hotel restaurants provided an excellent variety of food. We really enjoyed the Cove but early booking is essential There was fun music every night including a superstar bass guitarist each week - Curtly Ambrose -- you can't miss him as he is 6'7". There's lots to do at the hotel with good sea and pool swimming, a well equipped gym, sessions of yoga & Tai chi, walks with head gardener (John) as well as rum tastings events. There were so many attentive staff but we really enjoyed chatting to Sparkel and a new recruit Daliah in the Cove restaurant.

This trip was just the job to get us away from the wretched UK weather. The resort is set in outstanding grounds, with 3 very different pools, including an adults only one. Fantastic staff, very good food and a relaxing atmosphere make Blue Waters an excellent choice. Our only disappointment was the cancelation of the sunset cruise due to a boat problem. We had a room overlooking the sea, and it was wonderfully quiet, as we are both light sleepers. A special mention has to go to Naldine, who was housekeeper extraordinaire- nothing was too much trouble, plus she was kind and totally professional. Would we return? Without a doubt, and perhaps we could then experience the sunset cruise!

It's wonderful to arrive at a destination which somehow manages to capture the comfort of home and the feeling of being far away from your familiar. You are immediately in the moment when you arrive at Blue Waters. It's relaxed atmosphere, warm, accommodating staff, stunning views were a welcome to my spirit. There's plenty to do or as little as you please. Either direction will leave you with a satisfied smile on your face.

Antigua has to be my favourite of all the Caribbean islands. The beaches are picture perfect, the people are welcoming, and the water is so inviting. Plus only one word really describes the setting of Rock Cottage at Blue Waters Resort—paradise. From every direction, all you see are miles of blue sea and brilliant sky. The resort is simply a stunning spot. In fact, Antigua has to be one of the most tranquil places I've visited and I've visited a lot of places. I'm already planning my next stay.
