The Verandah Antigua

Spent the long Labor Day weekend at the Verandah Antigua Resort with my wife. We upgraded to the Waterfront cabana, room 125. It was situated on the cliff side with a fantastic view of the bay and ocean. Spent the time at the Rasta beach/pool and lovers Beach. Both beaches had powder sand and clear waters. Plenty of lounge chairs with ample shade. Service from all of the staff was friendly and prompt. Only issue was the wait times for a shuttle on the property, otherwise staff was very accommodating. Especially Theodore in the main dining room for breakfast and lunch service. This young man was extremely friendly, quick and attentive. Wouldn't be surprised to see him ascend into top management. Would recommend the Verandah for a low key and reset getaway.

We have just come back from a two week stay at The Verandah and it was just perfect. The hotel is in beautiful grounds that are maintained so well every day. The staff are all so welcoming and polite and cannot do enough for you. A special mention has to go to Patrica who went above and beyond to help us find something that we had misplaced. Patrica spent 2 days looking for for the item and then tracked us down on our last day just as we were leaving with the item. We cannot thank her enough for going out of her way to help us. The buggy drivers are great and full of knowledge of their island and told us great spots to visit. The food at the buffet was great, especially the breakfast! The waiting staff were all so lovely, even giving us a take away box when one of us wasn’t feeling well enough for dinner. The bar staff were also amazing - remembering our drinks order everytime!! The beach and pool areas are lovely, no problem finding beds and towels and also very well maintained. Would we come back??? In a heartbeat!!! ❤️

My stay at The Verandah Resort in Antigua was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The beautiful beaches, relaxing atmosphere, and great amenities made for an unforgettable vacation. However, what truly made this trip so special was the outstanding service we received from Andre, Leon, and Dequane. These three employees went above and beyond every single day to make sure we had the best possible experience. They were always welcoming, friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about making our vacation memorable. Their positive attitudes, attention to detail, and willingness to help with anything we needed did not go unnoticed. Andre, Leon, and Dequane are a huge asset to The Verandah Resort. They turned a great vacation into an exceptional one, and they are the reason we’ll be recommending this resort to our family and friends. We can’t thank them enough for their hospitality and for making us feel so welcome. If you’re considering staying at The Verandah, know that you’re in great hands—especially if you have the pleasure of meeting Andre, Leon, and Dequane. They truly made our vacation unforgettable. Thank you again for an incredible experience!

My husband and I chose to celebrate our anniversary at Verandah Resort, and while there, there were several memorable moments, however, our overall experience did not meet our expectations. One of the highlights of our trip was spending time at Lovers Beach. It was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what we hoped for during our anniversary getaway. Our private couples' dinner under the beachfront gazebo was another unforgettable experience. The setting was beautiful, the food was delicious, and our server provided the best service we received throughout our stay. Their kindness, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made the evening truly special. Our room was comfortable, but there were several issues that affected our stay. The bed linens were extremely thin, and there were no blankets provided. The bathroom lacked ventilation, making it consistently hot and uncomfortable. In addition, the television speakers produced poor sound quality, which made watching TV unpleasant. Unfortunately, room service was disappointing. On more than one occasion, we had to call the front desk multiple times to have our needs met. We have experienced much better room service at other resorts. The entertainment was enjoyable, and we appreciated the effort the entertainment team put into keeping guests engaged. One of the best parts of our vacation was the opportunity to meet and build friendships with other guests. Our experience with the resort staff was mixed. The male staff members were warm, welcoming, helpful, and actively engaged with guests. However, approximately 80% of the female staff members we encountered appeared unfriendly and unapproachable. Their demeanor often gave the impression that they were unhappy in their jobs. In particular, Gem, who handled tour bookings, seemed impatient when answering questions and assisting with reservations, which made the experience less pleasant than expected. While Antigua is a beautiful destination that we would gladly visit again, Verandah Resort is not a property we would choose for a future stay. Based on our overall experience, we would not recommend this resort to our family and friends. Although there were several bright spots that made our anniversary memorable, the service inconsistencies and accommodations did not provide the level of hospitality we expected from a resort of this caliber.

We had a great experience and would enjoy coming back. Beautiful location, wonderful place to relax. Cons: Not real drink service, surprised no one comes to take drinks anywhere. Food: Decent, but limited while we were there. Also the upgraded meal was not worth the extra unfortunately. Rooms: They were fine, but can hear the people beside you really easy and/or their TV All and all a good time. Wish there was more drink service, more food options at night. Most staff were nice, but very long for cart rides, and mostly just walked besides waiting.
